Well so far, my best score is 546,350. But might I add that my PC nearly died at the end due to the load it was putting on a single core of the six that were available! Perhaps some multi-threading support might be a good addition?

Hey Josh, I played your game the other day and I thought the idea was brilliant. That said, after playing the game I felt like you only scratched the surface of the concept’s potential.

I went and wrote a “review” here: http://tell-p.blogspot.com/2012/02/review-fail-deadly-pc.html

The gist of it is:
1. Needs more units.
2. Needs more complex network of counters than rock-paper-scissors.
3. The AI should do most of the building on its own.
4. Being “discovered” should be a risk when you interfere too often, not too little.

Ah, the download stopped just several bytes short of the actual file size. I redownloaded it and now it’s working great! Game is AWESOME! Cheers mate!

What is asking you for a password? The download itself, or the .zip file when you try to un-archive it?

I mean, neither of those things are password-protected, so I don’t know where this would be coming from. Unless it’s just your Mac asking you for permission to make changes, but even that would be surprising since Fail-Deadly is just a .zip file and not an installer.

There’s a password for the Mac download it seems but I can’t find the password anywhere.

I’ve been contemplating an Android version for a while. I already have an iOS version working (though not yet released) and Unity supports both platforms, so it shouldn’t be too tough support. I’m totally unfamiliar with the Android device market, though. :/
