Morning all - here's a game I started about 18 months ago... it fell by the wayside while I build Swords and Sandals III, but here it is at long last.

"Get Off My Planet" is basically a mixture of the tower defence and city building genres. Your mission is to grow your city and terraform a new planet whilst battling waves and waves of enemy starships.

This is the full version of the game - not a demo.

Version 1.1.1 should be live today and incorporates much of your feedback.

* Added a "SEND WAVE" button to send waves at you as frequently as you want
* Enemy waves appear more regularly on "Nooblet" difficulty
* Game now has 3 difficulty settings
* City does not auto-upgrade any more
* Power system has been restructured to make it easier to understand
* Food consumption is based on current city population, not max population
* Various other bug fixes inplemented.

Thanks for your feedback.

You may notice the president on the title screen looks familiar - I thought that might be a bit of fun considering Obama's inauguration. It was a last minute addition to the game, not a political statement - I'm Australian, not American :)

Special thanks to Hendrik Buyle for coding up the enemy and tower AI for me, to Tony Lowe for his outstanding artwork and to Ben Leffler of "ExMortis" fame for the brilliant soundtrack tune.

And for those who say I never put any free games on Newgrounds, here's one ! Enjoy!

Cheers Oliver

"Botched"

date: November 2, 2009

While version 1.1.1 doesn't even load here, I played it over at fizzle. Sadly the game doesn't life to it's potential. While very fun and interesting in the first few rounds, soon you built and researched everything and your defenses are impenetrable. Then you just wait (and wait and wait) for more money to roll in so you can upgrade your city and beat the game. And this is where the reason for my zero rating comes in: after wave 50 the game goes completely bonkers (Next wave in NaN) and sends all types of enemies at you from all sides at once. While I lived through 2 of these abuses, the third one got me (and I was actually happy because this way I had a reason to quit, although those superwaves brought and a nice amount of cash).

To summarize: nice idea, boring endgame (becomes just another tower defense and doesn't have much to offer there) and unbeatable due to a big fat bug (I gues no one played through this version and so it slipped through...).
