Android Attack is a 2D Tower Defense game created during Ludum Dare 31. In this game, you have 5 different towers, your objective is to use a mixture of these towers to eliminate the invading androids. If your health falls to 0, you lose, simple.
Please read the readme.txt file in the rar file to understand some of the additional controls and concepts.
I generally suck at tower defenses but I could manage this one. That I found very nice. The graphics were nice and it was all rather intuitive.
Some thoughts:
The green color for the cost was really hard to read. It would also have been really nice if one got a visual feedback on the icons for which one affords. Also, if I'm not mistaken they don't come in cost order, which was a bit confusing.
It would have been great with some feedback on the health of the base.
When I got to install the most costly defense the enemies died by one shot which made me wonder what happened as I didn't get to see that I hit them. Of course, adding some shooting animations for all defense systems would help, but also adding an explosion on all killed enemies would have been great.
Also, when I got to that stage of protection the game sort of played itself, which is to say that the later waves need to have harder enemies to keep the game interesting.
But it is a great start and hope you are happy with your game.
I left the game play itself up to wave 120 something and if you get more than 99 waves the wave number falls outside the screen. Also if you put the deadliest guns along the upper left edge you never get to see the enemies...so maybe a safe zone for enemies and right adjusted wave number text...
Pretty fun game! I have the feeling the towers are not very balanced (once you can frequently purchase the 2000 towers the game gets easy). However the game itself is solid, didn't spot any bugs, and the gameplay and graphics are clear. Good job and keep it up!

Fun game! Loving the play and feel of it! Keep the games coming!
Couldn't understand the controls unfortunately... For instance, how do you move the towers? I tried clicking and dragging from the icon. Tired clicking on the tower after clicking on the icon and dragging and a few other things. An explanation wasn't really provided in the readme file either, as far as I could see.
