Humankind has been doomed as a disease by an omnipotent alien race. How long will we last?

Arrow keys to rotate the satellites M to mute the game.

My goal was to learn a bit more on how to use Unity. I think I achieved that so I'm happy! :)
I also wanted to create a cheery little arcade game with simple game mechanics. I'm hoping to add a high score system in the post-compo version, now I really just need to sleep.
LINUX USERS: I didn't know the right way to pack the Linux file, rar is ok? Please? No? Help. Tell me if it works. :)

is there a point where the 2 godlike aliens attack earth themsleves?
The mood is perfect thanks to the intro and the well suited music theme. The gameplay is efficient, Though I didn't went really far (100pts max on 3 games). The little red ones are quite nasty. Congrats for your first unity game.
Absolutely brilliant! This is one of those rare games on LD that just feels and plays right, control-wise. Also I learnt something new on the first go after being eaten by the yellow creature, love games that do that! Best one I've played and rated as of yet.
I had fun playing this! I really liked it! Neat little arcade game. I got 101 points before I panicked and started to spin around. I really liked the animations.
Man, aliens are jerks, eh? HERE'S A TIP, ALIENS: if your spaceships are all in the shapes of EVIL SKULLS, you are PROBABLY the BAD GUYS.
I got 87. =) Nicely created! I found it all a bit noisy and stressful, but I think that was the intent and it achieves it quite effectively.
The enemy attack patterns being randomized but somewhat pre-designed was a nice touch, too. (The spiral one is my favorite as it is easy to handle but also makes me feel heroic =P).
Cool idea! Plays nice and fluid, the yellow guys are the worst (especially when 3 of them attack, so you have to pay close attention to which one will release off your defense paddles first!). Graphics are really nice too, the music ties well with them.
Personally I think arcade games are the best way to go for LD, and this is one of the best ones I've played so far! Played a good number of times because it was so much fun! :)
Very well done. Reminds me a lot of lovecraft. Mood is perfectly done. Not much can be said about it except maybe just more if you continue to work on it because it was a good time while it lasted!
Great use of sound to set the mood, and just an excellent entry overall. Scored an 83 - not sure if that's good or not, but it was getting pretty tricky at that point :)
The music, the sound and these tentacles make this game really creepy. You set the mood up very well. Do you plan to make a post-compo version? If yes, you should try to continue on the graphics, e.g. making them in the same style like the satellites (they look really good!).
Well, if it doesn't work out, we have Mars too. We'll probably fix that place up real nice. Oh! The game is good fun and clever. I actually really like how earth does not look like a place worth protecting.

Really good intro, sets the mood perfectly!
GJ!

It's irritating when three of those yellow guys show up.
Linux users probably expect .tar.gz, but we're used to dealing with .rars and .zips also.
One typo, in the intro there was "concider" instead of "consider"
