Reviews for "Mars Colonies Demo"
this guy probably won't even read my comment but one problem i was having was i would have to turn off fighting for everyone because they would randomly go in and kamikaze a base, then when people would actually come and attack i had to turn them all on and off again. even if you can't fix the kamikaze guys it would be nice to have an "all on" all off" option.
Alright before yall go giving this game bad reviews: here's some tips i found after a frustrating 4th turn at mission 3 (100 components + 2 Storages)
This game has a Ton of strategy involved (and yes you need to use the trator beam if your colonists keep kamikazing everywhere)
Stuff you need up ASAP:
Bunkers (if there are hostiles)
Power
Water Pump
Hydroponics
Component Factory! (this is crucial for building shit -without components Nothing gets done)
Metal Extractor
Oxygen Maker! (Never have too many colonists from the start, 3-4 is good enough for a while -unless you're waging a war from head on)
With all these stuff up and running: im sure youll be fine mining for a while: the rest if up to your mission and your management
TIPS ON KAMIKAZE COLONISTS & COMBAT:
1. your colonists by themselves are completely stupid and ineffective in combat
2. Unless they're mining, if they seem to wander just tractor beam their asses
3. When you hear the zap zap shootings: just pull the colonist(s) back, you want live colonists not hurt or dead ones
4. Rely on your bunkers for safety! Colonists as a group make a pretty good army but when you have only 3-5 colonists: bunkers will do the better job
5. Repair your bunkers if their hp is around 50%
6. 2 bunkers is really never enough (keep your bunkers within cover fire distance from each other)
7. When you have 5-6 colonists, Go rape the shit out of hostile buildings (1 at a time)

Fantastic game, the time you spend on every level can be a little Irritating though,I felt proud of my utopia and then BANG I win, no more city for you :(
It's a great RTS/management game, BUT you have got to give us a save option.
Otherwise, the sprite gifs seem to work okay so far. If you would add some more, then it would be even much greater! (BTW, why not bringing in some more building upgrades?)
