Second Earth

I've just played my first full completion of this game and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I think that you could use say, F1,F2, and F3, to select Infrastructure, Society and economy, and Defence, respectively. And then maybe numbers or letters, to select choices within these sections. eg. t=truck and m=mine. I'm looking forward to more...O j O

Great game, good job.

Bug or documentation issue: capacitors don't work during storms? Even when I have sheer amounts of energy in the batteries, immediately after a sand storm begins all my weaponry that requires energy stops functioning, only soldiers from garrisons and mortar towers keep shooting. Shouldn't the capacitors provided energy during storms?

Does the game have a Coop Mode or something like that? If not, here is a Example for u guys <3 Maybe each player is playing against everybody else (like mods in Star Craft 2) Sending Units against the others. Idk why Games are always Singleplayer cuz this is a type of a game that easily could have a Multiplayer or Coop Mode. 

Greetings from Germany

it looks this page is dead.

But, On Discord, Developers are there.

looks they are busy for something than this game.

They are making and testing

"City building version" with more resource and factories.

But nothing major version released, since Oct.2019.

So, this Oct.2019 ver. is the game at all.

It has been longer than 6 months since you said content would be coming, whats taking you so long?

About Wall-Spamming.

it looks Cheaty and Un-Natural.

But, No, Don't need "Construction Time" on each building 

Because, it cost much for a programmer.

[idea] Just give the Game

{a 1 second "Global Cool Down Time" for all buildings}.

and 2 seconds for "Military" buildings. 

So you can't spamm wall.

E.g. if you build 4 length wall, 

you need to wait for 8 (2x4)  seconds

to build a next Military building.

Yay, played at final, (district 9).

idea: Before put the garage,

show the Expectated Route for the new cart.

(and show the Expectated Efficiency for the new mine).

 Latter one, would be easy to implement.

When you finish this game?

hi, discovered by chance. would like to give my feedback for now : 

Pros.

1. I like the story, the way it's told, the starship troopers reminders, the capitalism satyre.

2. graphism match the theme, and the music is simple but effective, sound in general is really nicely done. (may be a little too loud when you are near the shooting)

3. The bugs are cute and sometimes i wish i could keep them as pet. They look awesome when they swarm at you 

Cons.

1. Love/Hate relationship with the road system. I get all the game revolve around this concept, which is part of the love, but they are extremely tedious to manage. In an advanced future it seems a bit silly to have this one way road system too. Where are the drones for exemple ?

2. Electricity ? Why so many time you have plenty of capacitor full but all of a sudden no electricity available. It's not only weird it's irritating to see your defense line crumble because reason unknown.

3. Power pole. Could use some specific power pole, longer range but less connexion ? because as for roads, for long distance it can really be tedious. And also you can't manage the connexion and sometimes they create extra ones, i like to keep my line clear and it doesn't help.

4. The net worth value of every character is the same (the one you have on hte top right, and those of your coworkers) would be a pretty neat way to tell experience. To allow some "research" or i don't know. 

5. Lack of personnalisation. I would have loved to be able to make a bit of personnalisation/upgrading/research, idk, something than would force you to choose between more firepower or less comsumption or longer range and so on...

All in all excellent game, would give a solid 70/100 may be 80 once the alpha is over and improvement has been made. Continue the good work

Good Evening,

Finished playing through the campaign today and would give the game a solid 6 out of 10. I know the game currently sits in Alpha right now, and there is the content we can not see or access at the moment but would like to give my opinions and see how everyone else feels. 

Pros. 

1. I like the story of the game, the feel of the map and the controls. I love the "Would you like to know more?" gave a flashback to Starship Troopers. 
2. Power to humanity keeps coming up when you complete a mission, and defiantly enjoy the vibe that gives to the game. 
3. The bugs are attractive with a variety of different warriors that you have to adjust your strategy too.  
4. Clicking on the different NPCs in the area, you can see some different info on them and efficiently helps build a rapport with each one, it sucks when one die because a bug got through your defense. 
5. A variety of mineral spots located throughout the map gives you a chance to expand and grow your base. Like you are building an actual settlement. 
6. The buildings do look cool, and there is a lot of movement with some of them, like the Space Port, so they don't just sit there. The NPCs move throughout the farms and mines, so it gives the game life. 

Cons. 

1. Roads-Hate this system with a passion, kind of wish it was more like Anno, you build the road to the place you need it to, and it will take care of the rest. The game takes place when technology is at its prime and way advance this us, but still, need one-way roads and trucks? 
2. Resources-Currently only shows minerals for defense and money for civic buildings. I would like to see Food import vs. export type of thing, so I make sure to build enough farms to maintain my current population or need to develop more to expand. 
3. Power Line Poles- Going back to the roads, feels like this could be cleaner and more organized than what is current, I hate seeing a bunch of wires hanging around, can they go underneath? 
4. Electricity- There are several ways to produce electricity, but some lake the finesse of an advance civilization. I think the Bio Reactor goes through too much food way to fast; and not one for magma, we have super death ray, but no Magma Reactor? 
5. Resources Not Consistent-My cash kept jumping around, and I could not figure out why my guys were fed and had enough food but kept jumping around from 250-175-189-200, the same with the minerals. 
6. Defense structures where cool, I wished the garrison did more, and the people in it were not just regular civilians with their little pistols. Can we recruit some security or military guys to give it a little more of a punch? 
7. Action-Did feel like a Tower Defense game for a lot of the fighting in the game, think it would be awesome if the creatures did spawn in random different spots, it would force you to make sure your guys were properly defended or maybe actively scanning for their locations. 
8. Replayability- I like the feel of the game, and where it is going, I love games that I can build what I want and where I want, the freedom is incredible, and the space-age theme this provides is fantastic. Currently, I don't how you could replay the game, though, or how long the current standing would stay fun. Multiplayer would be fun, some corporation vs. corporation, but would need some powerful, aggressive weaponry; maybe a sonar device to lure more creatures to a guys base or security teams to sabotage. The same for single player, building a base and waiting for the spawns of monsters is fun, for about a campaign's worth.  

Anyway, that's just my opinion, again I realize this is Alpha right now, and do like the way the game is going. I appreciate the opportunity to play it and enjoyed what I have got the experience. 

Thank you. 

Woah

i just created an account to say "wow". i have seen this https://img.itch.zone/aW1hZ2UvMzY3NTA5LzI1MzgxMDEuanBn/original/7igY9i.jpg and i am blown away by the use of Unity Engine if i am not mistaken, and the level of polish and complexity you are doing! amazing. as a software engineer myself i totally get the hard work this needs to be done but also the excitement when something new (feature etc) is ready. I dont know much about how many people are behind this, it look slike more than 1 man army i would say and thats even more crazy. i hope you manage to release this at some point before corona virus kills us all :P but evne if you cant, just your existing work make it into a Tycoon Engine and sell it on Unity Asset store and you will get a LOT of money out of this for sure!

Dont know what "enemy not our enemy" on end mission

My capacitors appear to do nothing.  Super frustrating.  I'm only on the 4th mission and getting my arse handed to me.

This really stands up above the rest. Seriously good job.

Really nice.

Awesome game! As I described it to a friend: A little bit of Anno, a little bit of Factorio, a little bit of Tower Defense, a little bit of Surviving Mars, mixed in with a healthy dose of Starship Troopers.

Graphics are smooth and easy to look at, runs great on Linux Mint 19.1 with an Nvidia GTX 980.

Keep up the good work! Looking forward to future developments.
