"the boss is angry and demands a redo" was cute the first time. After the third time in a row it was less cute. What was worse was that I had no idea what I did "wrong," nor had any practical control over it.
I would love a feature to show the actual stat increase that an upgrade would give. Oh, and it'd be great if upgrades stacked logically and updated their effects in reference to new amounts of troops, new milestones, and new upgrades. Thanks and keep up the good work.
@dem_gnomes: the purpose of multiple purchases is that it gives you more chances at a good upgrade set when using the upgrade system in store> upgrade ^.^
@eternal slumber: press spacebar to pause. You can build while paused, allowing for better placement. I'd recommend a basic defense with a laser and a quad. The go for reactors and extractors/miners/exhumer. The idea is to beat the boss in the rush to capital ships.
I love it! One small thing, could you list target by distance? it can be hard to find the closest asteroid or determine which pirate is the biggest threat.
