Feedback from the experts
Joep van Duinen: Very interesting concept :) You can take a look at the Final Earth 2 Game for inspiration: https://poki.com/en/g/the-final-earth-2. Nice music, where did you get it? Onboarding and goals are not really clear. Controls could be more intuitive / better explained
Noël Meudec: This game is a resource management game. I liked its atmosphere. Even though the graphics are very simple they do the job, the background music is nice and the commands feel natural. Here are the things I would improve: - The game needs a tutorial to understand the basic commands. I spent a lot of time just to understand what I was supposed to do. For example: I didn't immediately understand that staying on the nuclear sign was charging my aircraft. - Some game mechanics need to be tweaked: mining resources by keeping pressing E is too slow, to have to go back to the main base to charge the batteries and bring back resources get repetitive, etc. - I played 30 minutes (died a few times) and could build only a couple of radars. It would be nice to balance the game at the beginning to make it more exciting sooner and make the player want to build more buildings. I wish I could have explored more features of the game quicker. Overall, this game was interesting and has potential. With slightly better graphics and polished gameplay, it could become really good!
