Planets
A downloadable game for Windows
Planets is a real-time strategy game, that I made in 2016 and never published anywhere.
Your goal is to use your units to capture planets, which then produce more units that can be used to capture more planets! The planets spawn different types of units. While your default units for example can destroy enemy units or capture planets, the "Bomber"-units will explode in an area around them when being attacked, so be careful because you can't see the type of your enemies' units.
The game mechanics are kept as easy as possible to create an enjoyable and casual gaming experience for everyone as it is also fairly easy to adapt to and each round only takes on average no longer than 10 minutes.
The game includes a LanServer.exe, which can be used to host a LAN game after selecting a map from the data/maps directory. The game includes maps for 2-8 players, but you can use the in-game editor to create maps for up to 25 players.
