Defenders of the Last Colony

https://youtu.be/xOC3zmhoPXc Providing long gaps between enemy waves leaves the player with nothing to do far too often.

Much is needed to make the game better. It plays like something you'd find for free off of Newgrounds. Much that needs to be described in the game (such as the mechanics) is left on the "How To Play" screen, opening the game on a tutorial would be nice, as would some narration. This appears to be somebody's first game, so I'm not going to be as bold as to accuse them as pumping out some ♥♥♥♥ for the key store, even though I acquired it through a key bundle I bought from one of those stores. Such is the price of the grey market - people's work don't want to be forgotten, so it's better to give it out for practically nothing to these distributors rather than be forgotten to the sands of history. But I'm rambling. Knitted PIxels -- the guy who made this game -- still appears to be interested in making video games so I'd implore him to don't stop here, and hopefully what's been done since has been better. I've been through worse games, and whatever brings someone to the point of a keystore deal can be brought back if they push through hard enough.

Im Sorry to say that at lest on my rig that THIS GAME SUCKS! The reasons are as follows, 1 there is no way that I could see to chaange the conrtols on the keybord. 2. there is no tutorial as to how to play ether the campan, or the survivl mode. 3. There is no way "at lest from what I could see" to learn how to play this game, because half the time whan you start the first level you ether get hit by a rock distroying your ship or the screen just goes black, and you can't see. So in short this game could be a lot of fun, but it still needs a lot of work.

Avoid. Even if this game were free, the gameplay is just too non-fun to justify. Even if I had three friends helping me (it is up to four player co-op, though specifically this is shared/split screen COUCH co-op) it would still be very annoying as the individual maps are so tiny. I paid $1.49 USD for this and played for 0.2 hours and that was enough to decide to ask for a refund. This review is being left on 2026-08-24, and according to the Steam page, the game has not been updated since its 2016 release.

It's a barebones coop asteroids with a bit of base building. This game seems like there is something more, but it fails miserably to cooperate and convey the mechanics. On a side It's an example of a dev that failed and moved on, instead of choosing the assetflippery route. Hope they found a decent job outside the gamedev. Don't buy abandoned shovelware though.

Crashes every time too many moving objects start to show up.
