Aliens arrive at Earth! But we cannot understand them! What should we do?

Well, we should fire probes at them to listen to what they are up to... With enough information we can decode their language and find out what they want. Maybe we can supply it? or maybe we will be forced to defend ourselves with some very unconventional weapons?...

PC Build for Windows. Use the Mouse to click the buttons. Fire Probes near the cruisers but try not to hit them. Once your probes have enough data, an unconventional weapon will become available.

I tried to make a game that used audio in an interesting way and I also wanted to make a game that had little or no text (Aside from credits).

I made everything based on icons and graphics so hopefully it will wont restrict anyone through its use of language. In the past I have made a lot of text and spoken word heavy games. This time I Wanted to try the other end of the spectrum. I hope you enjoy and thanks for viewing my entry!
