star defender
wellcome to star defender the game where you build towers , train troops and survive as long as you can against the alien invasion ..
how to play ?
- build towers by moving the mouse towerd the build areas , which you unluck over time
- train your troops to give your towers temporary boosts and upgrades
- troop become untrained after some amount of time so manage your resources wisely
- each tower has a unique abillity unlock when you have a certain amount of troops from some type
- the upgrade have a chance of stack even after the troops untrained ( it's not a bug .. it's a feature )
- building any building and train troops cost energy or money ( Iam not sure what even is that hhhhh :) ) which you get from killing enemies and the power generator
- you lose when all your troops is dead
can you survive ?

- better lose and win screen
- balance changing and some other small things

I love the way the limited shapes are incorporated in this! Seems like there are multiple strategies to this as well! The scaling might be a little off though, as I played for 20-ish minutes and at that point I could not really die or spend the resources.
yeah ... I have a seriouce balancing issue with my game ..
but I will fix it in future update by changing the states of every tower in the game and adding some more towers .. Actually, I'm thinking of making it a full game for mobile and PC
do you think it worth a shoot ?
thanks for the feedback
If the balancing is fixed it would probably be super fun. I'd say committing to making this game a full game is purely up to you and your ambitions.
