The style looks interesting from the video. As with any action platformer, the critical thing is getting the balance right. I also like a good story, if they can write well...

Hey, that looks pretty cool. Something indie that isn't roguelike!

Great article! I love hidden gems. Less than 1000 reviews cuts out some older games that have slowly built reviews over the years, though. Some of these show more than one count for reviews, so forgive me if I found some with "too many":

By father and daughter. Be forgiving and enjoy the simple fun.

I have no idea why the reviews are mixed, I loved this game.

By the same people who did Teslagrad.

Not for everyone, buy I think this game is brilliant. I want a sequel.

I also agree with Kairo, mentioned above!

After playing up to Jupiter, I have a few thoughts.

I like the mechanics, it generally gives you an open region to build in and you get to make your own maze. However, the game variety suffers a bit because of that. After playing in the same few level shapes a dozen times, you do get an interesting big spiral. However, the only real variety is different enemies and difficulty.

I like the leveling-up mechanic. The enemy balance is pretty good (although the flyers sometimes seem overpowered). The general tower-defence game-play seems really solid and I do hope that the early access period gives them time to flesh out the level variety a bit. Considering I already played it for about 8 hours, I think I got my money's worth for $1.

I look forward to the final game. It has a lot of promise.

I had to follow the instructions here to get the game to launch:

Seems to work ok now with a quick attempt at one level. I like the graphics.

Edit: The post wasn't entirely clear, but the prefs file is in
~/.config/unity3d/Zebec Games/Geometry Defense/

Oooh. Tower defence. 80% off. You know my weakness!

I think I will break my "no early access" rule for a dollar.

Looks interesting. I like how clear they are about the porting.

I hope it works out.

Love the art style. Too bad about it having the roguelike curse.
