Difficulty update

After a few months of play testing and keeping a close eye on the leader-boards it was obvious the game was too easy. We have upped the difficulty in several ways to give players a greater sense of pride and accomplishment for getting high scores! Don’t worry, no micro transactions! with this update there will be a reset of the high-scores to test this new difficulty.

  • Controls now move the moon with less force meaning you'll take a few extra seconds to reach maximum speed.

  • The planet people have added special moon melting focusing crystals to the laser which will cause it to slice through you like cheese. Watch out!

  • Consecutive revives are now harder to achieve.

  • UFOs are now bigger and kill you in one hit. But they are also a little slower to compensate for the added payload they carry.

  • Enemy waves will last a bit longer making you face more rockets, tanks, and UFOs

  • Less health and powerup drops

We are always looking for feedback on the game mechanics, difficulty, skills, and anything at all! If you have any suggestions, Feedback, or ideas please hop on discord and let us know!
