After spending most afternoon mashing 1,2,3,4, space, ctrl, L click to free the galaxy, I just couldn't bring myself to do it all over again in elite. Not a bad game, but pretty redundant after a little while. Upgrading one point at a time is kinda like watching grass grow.

All i do is upgrade my Engine and Armour and Turret factory to level 5 then i just auto build every single Ship NO MATTER WHAT just spaming it works :D

I would just like one addition. ctrl-click does continuous upgrades. For example, i ctrl-click my energy output upgrade, and it upgrades it automatically until level 10.

Played the whole game and it’s pretty good. As has been said, the main problems are the difficulty curve is almost flat and every mission is basically the same, so you can use almost the same tactics all the way through (it gets a little trickier on Elite, and more so on Legendary, but it's not really hard). I liked saving up resources for an offensive, that worked particularly well. It looks good, works well, it's just the repetitiveness that palls after a while. Two criticisms - One, and this p’d me off out of all proportion, when you spend energy the Energy meter counts down in single digits. This means that a lot of the time when you're doing upgrades you have no clue for 5+ seconds exactly how much energy you have. Energy spent should be subtracted instantly. Secondly, the high scores only show your highest single mission score, so it's easy to play an early one, max out your defences and leave it running overnight to rack up a 50m+ score (that's what I did to get #3). Overall 4/5

I only needed to use any ability, turret, or something for base HP in the last 3 missions of legends level. I had to cram every boring level before I get there, and then I wished there were 1 more level since it would THEN reach the correct challenge level for me.

Auto-build is slightly counter intuitive: it builds the max with resources available rather than waiting for the resources to become available to build the last ship type... So after a couple of ships, we end up with vastly different ships than what was intended.

it does have potential, but the thing is every mission is the same, different enemies sure and it's kinda fun, but you upgrade power, send the ships, and it pretty much just wins that by itself. Not a bad game, I love all the Null Games but I guess I have to agree with everyonee lse who is posting, gets boring fast because it's the same thing, no strategy at all. Oh well, at least you guys have that Awesome card game to make up for it ^^ Gonna go play that right now!

You don't need to build ships at the start. Simply upgrade Energy Core and Super Weapon. When you think you're ready, build & send Cruisers and Destroyers. Win.

this got alot of potential, but it only has one mission. no difficulty change, no enemy graphical change, and maybe you shouldnt start out with the entire space station, like you have to recover the blueprints for the turret and later the blueprints/parts for the super weapon. 3/5

one thing I really like about kongregate that other sites seem to lack is clicking the right mouse button and selecting show all, other sites I only get a small screen that shows most not everything.

(underling to ultranought commander): Sir, we've vanquished the enemy, but detected more elsewhere.
(commander): Dump all the upgrades, delete the research, kill the scientists. We'll go to the new place to kill the new enemy so we can have a fair fight.

"Sir we have finished upgrading the Ultranought's reactor, armor, turret and super weapon and we have successfully destroyed the enemy base! Shall we move on to the next area?" "No soldier! That makes no sense. Destroy the upgrades to our base and jettison the parts into space before we leave. It wouldn't be a fare fight otherwise" "umm... but sir..." "DO IT NOW!"

Could be fun with a x8 speed. As is, all you do is wait for energy to charge up, buy an improvement, then roll out after a few minutes.

Well made, but you can beat entire game using same strategy: upgrade resources, spawn ships... That's it. So it gets boring really quickly.

this drags on for ever on level 1, this is rediculous there seems to be no hope of winning a round. 2/5 I'm not enjoying myself at all.

Quick Guide for Easy Wins:Spend your skills points on your Energy Regeneration and the HP of all ships to max(5).With the rest just put it in Armor Plate regeneration and Weapon regeneration. the First thing you should do is Build your Destroyer Bay. Once you get that spawn a Destroyer Every time the enemy gets close with +4armor and +4weapons.Build up your Weapons Factory, Armor Plates factory, Energy Core, Super Weapon to 6, and Ship Frames Factory to 4. once you have around 200+ frames in your stock spawn ships like crazy and annihilate your opponent(Retask and Charge help).

To everyone asking for a fast forward button there is one at the top to the right of the minimap that makes it go twice as fast

It lack of strategy, good game, good concept, but I have ended each level of normal with the exact same strategy : power → power → power → special weapon → spam XL ships → profit. There is no need to change based on what happen or what skill you have. Once you found the trick (and it's the same in all games of this genre) there is no much merit at winning this.

Interesting game. Perhaps instead of fight-based leveling there could be some sort of XP based? I don't think the one skill point per fight is a good plan as it gets very hard very fast. Granted throwing all of your points into energy and ship body production while spamming ships as soon as you start keeps me alive, it gets tiresome.

not a bad game at all... how ever you should add a X2 and X3 speed and as well as upgrades to the super weapon and turret for the skill tree. And just to make things different can you change the level ship to what it actually looks like its a little more realistic. for now 4/5 takes too long

@gomwon Have you noticed the fast forward button at the top? On the first mission I thought it was really slow to and it took me like 20 mins to complete the level but with ff you can start completing them in like 5 mins

If I select a ship, max it out, then turn autobuild on, I want to autobuild that maxed out ship. Not the last ship I build. Currently, you need to first max it out, manually build one, let it complete, then turn autobuild on. Bad interface.

So I max out a ship, then control-click to say "build continuously." It does, but it builds the basic version, not the maxed out version. How do I tell it to continuously build the maxed out version?
It remembers the last ship you built, so you'll have to build one ship with the preferred setup manually. If you ctrl-click then, it will build that setup for as long as enough materials are available.

Guys, please note that you can set the bays to auto-build by ctrl-clicking them. Saves the trouble of constantly switching building panels :)
I would request,hovewer, small update in component factory speed (15-25%), particulary frames build rate. Frame accumulation rate is a bottleneck when building a sensible fleet, and it takes a long time, even with +25% frame upgrade.

Gets boring real fast - every mission follows exactly the same pattern: Upgrade your production thingies and ctrl+click your bays to win. Has potential, but currently it's a one-mission game :/

A very good game, but it could use a build queue option as it gets very boring clicking each bay and sending out one ship

This is a very nice game here! I would ask for one thing: To be able to save in the middle of a mission. One mission takes a very long time and I would like to leave and come back to it later. 5/5.
