A work in progress

Not sure why, but a screen came up with the big words DEFEATED! I had more planets and killed way more ships. Don't know why. I felt like I was winning. Besides that, the game has promise. I wish it used standard iOS gestures to control things - swipe to move the screen, pinch to zoom in/out. It's a little awkward right now. The key to the game (I thought) is to control more planets. Planets only have so many resources. When they run out there is no more. So, if you have more planets, you can build more ships, do more research, etc. BTW, the game starts with the computer already occupying planets so better get the move on and find the rest. So, after losing for some unknown reason, I'm deleting this.

This game has a lot of potential If you like rts this game is perfect but the game needs some updates such as can move around map with clicking on the map, more units, maybe like some super units, different factions maybe, but anyways first to comment do I win something haha ;)
Great but...

Game lacks variation of units. There's only 4 different types of units available. I'm sure there is going to be future updates that will add more units. Otherwise, this is a great game...
What could go wrong did go wrong...

I`ll make it quick since this hole thing is a Joke if you compare it to other Products in either of the two included Genres on the Appstore or even to some of the Old School Classics in the Genre like Utopia from 1981. Star Armada is an overpriced Collection of an RTS and an Tower Defense Game which does proof in a sad way that it`s still possible to deliver a Product in 2012 that Description should be as following... What could go wrong did go wrong. All I can say about the Game is that I did already request a Refund from Apple for that one because it`s a insolence that the iTunes Store is currently flooded with Low Budget Games with a high Price Tags that has in no Way a decent value to reflect their Price-Tag and Star Armada is an perfect Example for that Movement. Stay away from it and grab any other decent RTS or Tower Defense Game since it`s not like there aren`t enough to choose from...
Really good rts

I bought it while it was 99 cent so it wasn't overpriced and overall an almost perfect game I would like factions and teams instead of just 1v1
Nice

Almost looks like you based this game on Activision's Real Time Strategy game Star Trek Armada and Star Trek Armada II. The GUI looks exactly the same and so do the graphics. The question is how did you do it? It would be great to see modded versions of Star Trek Armada and Star Trek Armada II coming to the next generation of computer and online gaming by adapting to the iPad and tablet PC platforms.
Ok but could add...

The game is fun and all, but make the more levels, once you beat it the game gets very boring, also it would be awesome if you added multiplayer against other people in real time
Wish it was playable

Love where the game is going... But wow. What a horrible horrible interface. It is playable, but it takes a lot of learning and patience. Also, the tutorial isn't a nice interactive gameplay learning experience like SpaceBorders has. It's 45 pages of 3-4 sentences each printed in tiny tiny text. If this is the user's first experience with your game, you should really improve it a bit.
Could use some things

Really fun but the facilities could be bigger and you should be able to build in space instead of on a planet. Really good RTS though and it has a lot of potential.
