Wow someone made the youtube ad game!
Cool visuals, but doesn't count as a game for me. Can you do anything that make sense, except selecting the upgrade?<p>Could be a nice little game, though. Strip the IP and let the AI implement a bit more for the user to do.
Once you get high enough you can switch commanders which gives additional upgrades and active powers.
It's like cookie clicker, with less clicking and more blood!
I've been seeing a lot of Pokemon games recently as well, are companies just not enforcing their copyright/trademarks anymore?
They can't sue everyone, comrade. AI tools will hopefully trigger a rewrite of what copyright means, it's always been silly that it prevents derivitive works.
they may well be busy surviving AI induced chain reactions letting lots of people out of work.
Game basically plays itself but fun nonetheless
For 10-15 levels or so, then your upgrade choices start to matter.<p>I only played through it once, but I'm convinced I'd do better on a second run, and a third, etc.
The satisfying pop of the zerglings alone make it fun for me.
Fun game.<p>I have to pick a new upgrade every 3 seconds. I thought they did that to stave off boredom, but actually it increases decision fatigue. (I just wanna shoot!)
Saw Starcraft, spent 30 minutes living the nostalgia playing this.
That was pretty enjoyable. Definitely like the ads you see online but with IP people care about.
Is this AI generated? Pretty impressive if that is the case
Definitely smells like ai. I don't think a human would spend so much time on the graphics and effects and not have streamlined the gameplay a bit.
The opposite would be correct. AI generated is the norm, and it would be impressive to spend xxx hours creating this when AI can do it in 4 hours
Assets are very easily duplicated because of the editor that ships with the game. Not as impressive as it would be if it were other games with more tightly-locked assets.
It's nice to know Stimpack marines still roll face.
I <i>did not touch the controls at all</i>, and I still won with zero losses on the first level - that does not inspire confidence.
I was wondering why there was a dragon there, is it from Wrath of the Lich King?
This is, respectfully, slop piggybacking on nostalgic associations with stolen assets.
Great game. It took me way too long to figure out I could use keyboard to control the positioning instead of mouse.
Ah, the music is so nostalgic.
Really takes me back.
Cool game, but isn't this going to make blizzard bring out the big guns?
Holy moly, just hearing those sound effects gives me a giant wave of nostalgia.
Great work on this, had a blast!
nice game
Perfect, who needed to be productive anyways
Lots of fun! Wish StarCraft would come out every year
A mix of everything. Stolen from everywhere. We have AI, but people are still the bottleneck. They lack creativity and ideas :D. lol
This was really fun!
Really cool game. Spent about 30 minutes playing it. Very fun!
so nice!
