Thanks for the tip - no difference.
It looks great. I like the look of the menus. Clair de lune is one of my all time favorite pieces of music, and it’s unusual to have it as the backing music but it works well in creating an alone in space type atmosphere.
Gameplay wise it just wasn’t my thing. I struggled to get through the instructions without my mind wandering, and could only manage playing for a few minutes. But that maybe says more about my personal taste in games then it does about your game.
Also how did you manage to get the black borders to pad out the photo on the showcase preview? The photo on my game just shows half the image.
I love the music. Just to clear up what you say on the LD page, the composition may be public domain, but the performance definitely isn’t. Pretty clear cut case of “no harm no foul” though, so I wouldn’t sweat it.
Future idea: As long as the planets will be sending out fleets to attack you, you should also consider the idea that some of the planets are at war with each other. But as you attack them more and more, they’ll start to ally and join forces against you. Could force you to lay low against some planets, maybe try to intercept diplomatic ships to prevent the alliance from forming (a move that would get riskier with each ship they send), etc.
Clair de Lune is my favorite music to play too
It doesn’t really have much gameplay other than trying to destroy all 50 planets and conquering the universe (I know…I know…very original >.>)
No clue…that’s JGO stuff, ask Riven!
That’s an amazingly amazing idea! Thanks! :o
Woohoo the results are in!!
