Two Strange Things I Have Experienced in the Game
Before I get to the strange things I need to say that I'm enjoying this most of the time. The main reason I don't enjoy it is because I make mistakes and the enemy overwhelms my defenses and destroys my colony.
Of course, I just play that mission again (and again and again) until I finally win it. Then I like the game a lot more.
Here are the two strange things.
I put this one on Discord yesterday, but here it is again.
I won and lost Mission VI at the same time. My colony was destroyed at the same time as the last enemy was destroyed. I got credit for doing both of the requirements which was followed by the defeat screen, then I was able to go to the next mission. I wish I had recorded it. I don't know if it matters, but I had slowed the gameplay by one click on the minus sign.
I just finished a try at Mission IX. Near the end I was planning on using the EMP to stun a last wave of enemy in the area where I had good defenses. While I was making final adjustments with the EMP target indicator, an enemy or two that I didn't realize were at my colony finished destroying the colony. I got the defeat screen then I couldn't do anything to interact with the game. I couldn't get out of the defeat screen. I used Alt-Tab to get to Steam or the Task Manger, which were also running. The game screen went totally white, but I stayed in it. Nothing I tried, which was a lot, allowed me to get out of the white game screen. I finally used Ctrl-Alt-Del and logged out. That shut down the game, Steam and Task Manager and took me to the login screen. Everything worked fine after that, including the game.
