Reviews for "Space Defenders"
Great
I really liked it, it was really fun, and I loved the discussing scenes. A bit too short sadly.
Bullet
Everything pretty cool but i know you wouldnt normally do this but it you go backwards to a bullet you wont die... as it only kill when it in front of you or something yea. that all i got to say
Finally, I get to play as the invaders.
I quite like this game, it brings a whole new perspective to the classic Space Invaders game. The controls are very simple and easy. The gameplay is really well thought out, it brings in the use of strategy, such as where to attack first, what to avoid, whether or not to sacrifice a few of your defenders. The description you gave for the game really DID add a new perspective, and for that, I think this game is very good, well thought out, and yeah.
I love new concepts based on old games. Although I believe this one ought to be called "Earth Defenders" to properly counterpart Space Invaders.
The game is not too hard. Rockets are the main problem, because they home in the little guys, forcing movement into areas filled with pellets, but there is a catch: Their speed increase along their distance from the target. This means that wandering near towers/rocket bases is actually SAFER than keeping a distance.
Rockets can be easily outmaneuvered this way.
The other catch is they always take ONLY ONE target. This meams a tower can be bombarded while some aliens take the rockets. On later stages, there are so many of them, it hardly make a difference. Since rocket bases launch many of them, though, they must be priority target, and when shielded by a tower, that tower is priority.
Other trick: Losing side aliens considerably increases DPS because their fire speed goes up as their allies die. This makes later levels much easier than (I believe) intended by the producer.
Anyway, it's a nice game, had fun. Was made in 2 days, which is also great.
