*Attack.exe flips out chrome and av security like crazy. Very bad file-name to pick
*when a tentacle dies it needs to make a sound to let the player know that was a bad thing to do
*high score screen was broken for me, unable to click anything but could type text (had to alt-f4 out). I tried again but samething happened

Fun game! it reminds me of Death Worm Game (that is a good thing)

Fun little game! i really like the music and visuals, but gameplay can get a bit repetitive.

Very cool music! And a great eye exercise when controlling more than one tentacle.

Great entry!! It fits both themes perfectly, and it's really fun to play, although I got a bit lost with the controls for a few seconds the first time I spawned a new tentacle.

Amazing job! :)

Wow the visuals are great... Music cool. This game is a really good job.

Nice. I like the idea of controlling multiple tentacles that way, though it seems like if I just focus on a couple of tentacles the game won't end, as I'll spawn new ones as the old ones die.

Cool game with an innovative mechanic! Loved the 2 player mode ;)

Awesome. Gameplay is fun and music/sounds fits nice. Textures a bit blurry, but it's fixable ;)

Cool game! The tentacle monster looks wicked!
Seems like your graphics got messed up by the engines anti alising. Or maybe that was the look you went with.

Good job!

Nice idea! The music got really good as the game went on and I really like the difficulty progression. It's hard to keep track of all the tentacles, I'm sure with a lot of play you can work out some system to keep them all in useful places.

Maybe let the tanks at least use the road.

Evgenii: We didn't make the music for Attack Of The Radioactive Octopus From A Planet Near Mars ourselves, so it would be unfair to enter into the Audio category.

Great innovative game.

Great work!
Gfx look nice and sounds are fitting :)
It would be nice, if humans/tanks wouldnt run through "buildings" in the bg.
The game feels really nice, because the tentacles move in nice patterns ;)
I got 225292 points.

P.S.: Awesome game title :D

Enjoyable with interesting retro graphics. It played well in single player but was a little cumbersome as a multiplayer game.

Great game! Gets difficult to control once you have 3+ tentacles, though that's part of of fun.

the environment looks nice but has no bearing on the gameplay which is initially confusing
