The gameplay is centered around strategic tower defense with a strong emphasis on a "turtle" mechanic, where players build defenses and manage resources in a crystal field. While the injector mechanic adds depth to base design, the gameplay loop tends to discourage expansion, favoring a few heavily upgraded towers, which can make the experience feel more tedious than engaging. Overall, players appreciate the interesting mechanics but note that the focus on limited expansion can detract from the overall enjoyment.
“Summary: this is strategic tower defense with a strong turtle feel, and some interesting mechanics: I do like this game.”
“The injector mechanic makes for interesting base design.”
“The key problems are: this game seems to attempt to focus on expansion, while the gameplay loop discourages expansion in favor of a few key heavily upgraded towers.”
“At the most recent game version, I've made it to the beginning of wave 11 (for me, about 3 hours of gameplay in), and then lasted about 4 seconds before my base is eliminated.”
“Gameplay: your space rocket lands in the center of a vast crystal field: you build a power line out to the crystal, a few turret bases topped with mining lasers start off your income, and you've a limited time to build some form of defense before the enemy waves start.”
