>In the opinion of all 734 planet-to-planet news agencies currently at work in the Milky Way, humans have been repeatedly placed at the bottom of the 'coolest things that ever happened to our galaxy' list. Due to the fact that they only infested one planet ~~and not one that mattered much~~, there haven't been any interventions from the United Planets Organization. PROBLEM IS those dum-dums have finally depleted earth and they are out to get everyone else. BEWARE! It's every astronomic body for itself!

Nice game, I wasn't able to figure out how to combine or combo cards

This was really fun to play! And the planet looks so lovely and cute

Probably hit the current zeitgeist

JanaChumi5 Dec 2017, 03:03

I really like this game.

Cutest angry planet ever, nice use of emojis.
Hope you'll be able to finish your planned stuff like combos and cutscenes =)

It looks really cool but I did not see an end goal or anything getting worse. What was I missing?

dibu135 Dec 2017, 03:06

Great idea!

@mmason we still have a lot to improve on that, we just didn't had enough time! Thanks for the feedback.

Very very cool!! and the designs are awesome :D

I thought this game was cute and I love the music!

terakorp5 Dec 2017, 11:06

whoah this is great dude! loved the idea and the art! :)

oh congratulation! Nice art! Can I follow it also on indiexpo? Do you have also a page there? This looks great! I looked for the games that used the #LDJAM but I don't find yours. So good luck!! I will hope to make a video about it!

Cute art! I felt really sorry for mars :( It's fun in a way, but failure seems inevitable. Nice sfx and music as well.

Fantastic! Original idea and nicely implemented. I had some trouble noticing my action's consequences though.

Hilarious! I found the emojis above the humans very funny. The art and sound are great too.

Really good game :-) The graphics and sfx are stunning !
The music is very good but doesn't seem to have any connection to the theme and gameplay, that's a little minus for me as it's a music for a game :-/
As for the theme in general, there is no impact on the gameplay that there are more people on earth, or at least I think... That's a shame !
Also very funny ;-) and as for the mechanics I would have a hint for you : humans don't need you to destroy the Earth AND themselves ;-)
Go and check our game if you want ! See ya !

Love it!

LMB8 Dec 2017, 20:42

That's a nice idea, very fitting to the theme. Graphics are superb and the sound is also very good. But I found the game itself a bit lacking, it didn't entertain me for too long. Felt like if my actions and choices didn't really had much effect on the outcome. You are clearly creative and have the talent to make a nice looking and nice sounding game! On your next attempt, aim for developing a more compelling gameplay -- you may achieve something big!

Funny game with a casual mechanic and a very beautiful aesthetic! Congratulations for the game.

Jogo engraçado, com uma mecânica casual e uma estética muito bonita! Parabéns pelo jogo. :flag_br:
