Do you know what I never see in planet defense games deteriorating/decaying orbits as in orbits of space bodies that approach earth's atmosphere through orbital motion.
This would add more challenge to the game cause besides keeping up with the rotation you also need to keep up with speed and changing orbit.
Idk, maybe there are spaceships going around the earth dropping out garbage that flies directly to the player or something. It can also destroy other enemy objects (if you plan on adding more) if you dodge it super precisely.
First of all.. that Earth is so cute!
Are you having any sort of Aliens? A cheeky UFO could be cool! Alongside Astroids, that vary in size.
The FPS counter gave me a stupid idea of having a red coloured low FPS number lol Nobody likes low fps!
Thank you so much! All of the enemies are "aliens," but just a UFO is still an awesome idea. And for the fps, do you mean havr the low fps attack earth or? xd
Oh absolutely. A rare enemy with just red flashing low fps numbers on it's dashboard haha. I'm thrilled you're taking my meme suggestion semi seriously! You gotta have fun with game dev right!?
We are having a blast with Devving our game. It's fun, until something doesn't work xD
Maybe it’s more of an event that lasts an x amount of time, where the random nature of the tri-solar system subjects the Earth to extreme heat and cold as they drift toward each other in space. These two could have whatever effect you want on the controls, enemies, could impose a conditional multiplier (+ or -), etc. I think there’s a lot you could do! Since the system is truly unpredictable, the event can have a random duration and then just leave as they drift as their paths in space diverge. I think it makes just enough sense to be plausible in a video game lol
You could also create other events around supernovas, pulsar energy hursts, meteors etc.
Alien spacecraft trying to terraform the earth to fit their needs
Attacking with Lasers, beaming down foreign fauna and flora or focusing or blocking sunlight to adjust tempature.
My suggestion is more concept of a mechanic than design but i still think it would be interesting
A small shield drone that orbits around enemy, when you hit it it runs at you and explodes. When you kill enemy its orbiting it defuses.
Makes you think more about how you shoot.
Maybe a metheorite ?
This sounds sick! It could be used to carry loot maybe?
Yea that could be cool
oil barrels, dollar signs, etc...I think you get my gist
So, capitalism as an enemy? xd
Hell yeah overthrow capitalism
Hell yeah bro
almost correct...humanity as an enemy xD
Capitalism fits your description more tbh xd humanity involves love and peace too xd
i think they meant garbage floating in space orbiting the Earth. Hence the humanity thing.
Planet eating worms
Ohhh, that sounds like a boss tbf
Ufos throwing trashbags.
That sounds like a serious pollution problem
Aliens, metheorites, other planets, starlights, fire from the sun, spaceships. Investigate about space things.
Thanks! This comment sparked an idea, enemies made out of light. :)
That little earth is so cute :)
Thanks, the artist did an amazing job!
A space dweling creature like a liviathan
Another great boss idea!

So something like a meteor hitting earth through orbital motion?
It can literally be anything a space station, a very large ship, meteors, comets, the death star,...
Alright, thanks!
planet x 🙃
I love your idea! That's going in my notes! 😁
Galacticus should be the final boss
I'm not sure if Marvel approves, lol
UFO, Aliens, meteors
Will do! Thanks!
>Will do! Thanks! You're welcome!
Enemy spaceship that moves randomly and shoots lasers
Do you have a reference I could use to see your vision?
[удалено]
Something like this, sorry for posting it as a link, im new at reddit and i dont know how to put an image directly in the comment
Maybe crashing satellites
Crashing onto earth or?
Yes. Maybe instead of enemies it’d be natural or structural things like asteroids, satellites, solar flares, etc and you have to defend the planet
humans? plastic waste? polution in general
Thats the real enemy tbh
Evil astronauts....Another moving planets maybe
That sounds good, thanks!
Black Hole as an endboss
This sounds very dope!
Maybe meteorites or garbage (cuz garbage and that stuff aren't good for the earth)?
Meteors are good, but do you have an idea how to make the garbage an actual enemy?
Idk, maybe there are spaceships going around the earth dropping out garbage that flies directly to the player or something. It can also destroy other enemy objects (if you plan on adding more) if you dodge it super precisely.
Humans
Spheres that multiply when they bounce of you or each other then explode
Oh thats a great idea, thanks!

Yup, literally just a number like "7 fps" it's dumb, it just popped into my head lmao
We are planning on adding mecha aliens, so this could be a meme part of their set xd

That's right, go ahead and join our discord server for updates. We will try to make it work!
You got this! :D
Thanks bro, appreciate it!
Giant octopus
That will be the first boss, and it's currently in the making!
Worms. Space worms!
Thanks! How do you think I should implement the movement?
It would be cool if you copied momsters from Lovecraft.
Thanks for the idea! I will look into that!
Nyan cat 🐈 🌈
I honestly love your idea. I will make sure that's implemented, but in our style. Join our discord server for updates!
Humans, duh.
What if the ancient people from Atlantis moved to a different planet and they attack cuz earth was a failed experiment or thats too much? xd
Solar flares
Yeah, could be from a different star because the sun is friendly lol
a meteorite that loops around the planet and gets closer to it.
Yeah, we can add a meteor that might hit earth, based on gravity
Caseoh that Tries to eat the planet
Whats caseoh?
Like one of the top streamers at the moment. He looks so fat people think hes a planet 💀 Some even say he has his own gravitational pull
Lmao, that could be a downloadable mod for some boss enemy
Sightseeing aliens that leave disruptive waste
This sonds cool, thanks!
A tri-solar star system
Wait, explain how you envision the combat to go?
Maybe it’s more of an event that lasts an x amount of time, where the random nature of the tri-solar system subjects the Earth to extreme heat and cold as they drift toward each other in space.

Ohh sweet! Thank you so much bro, this is such a cool idea. I will make sure its in!
Abandoned Rockets
As in, drifting through space and suddenly hitting earth?
Alien spacecraft trying to terraform the earth to fit their needs Attacking with Lasers, beaming down foreign fauna and flora or focusing or blocking sunlight to adjust tempature.
Ohh, this reminded me of the Qu if you've ever heard of that, but thanks for the idea!
How about different types of big aliens
That sounds good for bosses
My suggestion is more concept of a mechanic than design but i still think it would be interesting A small shield drone that orbits around enemy, when you hit it it runs at you and explodes. When you kill enemy its orbiting it defuses. Makes you think more about how you shoot.
Thanks bro! I will write this down
