I'm done way early, but I have an idea for a decent game.
It is fairly self explanatory, with an awesome victory/defeat scene.
I think I'll start remaking this with decent code tomorrow.

how to play:
if you click a button on the bottom that unit is spawned for the given price.
wimpy is cheep but does no damage, good for burning into ash at the far right.
timewarrior is gained for 10 time if you wait till you have 20, and costs three time, but gives the same amount of ash as a wimpy. can fight, but not very well. currently bugged to always lose to grunt.
for 10 ash you get grunt, which can fight okayish, but costs 5 ash. also, slow.
after that, for three ash, you get the portal thingy, click on it (doesn't support zooming) to allow units to teleport and attack the fish base.
for some amount of flesh, which is gained when your units are killed by enemy units, you get scouts, which are faster and I think are also bugged to not die.

Looks like a web game that can't be played on the web?

Sorry doctor, the only thing that I've been able to put a web game up on is dropbox, and dropbox doesn't like .js files and images and whatnot.

That is one of the creepiest lose screens I have ever come across A+

skills, what is not working about it?

I have no idea what's happening here. Do I just click buttons randomly? But I do like the lose screen. hehe

You have some pretty good mechanics in here that I was able to understand after you explained it. A writeup of the rules would be useful.

Interesting concept. Are you going to keep developing it?

I understand the concept, which is interesting.
Too bad you didn't have time to make the game easier to play. Without the instructions, it's really difficult to understand what is going on.

I like the mechanics and concept here, but figuring out how to play was tricky even with instruction. It was annoying having to click the portal to switch between sending wimpies to be burned and sending grunts over to the fish world. There were sometimes collision bugs with enemy units flying straight past mine, but in the absence of such I found that if a single wimpy reaches your base, it can totally lock you down - even grunts don't seem able to stop it.

ninjascript: I plan too. so hopefully.

piscythe: yes, there are many bugs in this version.
