Scalien Showdown
Build an army to battle through 10 waves of alien forces. Use the cards you're given to construct a powerful lineup capable of dealing with the opposing team. The enemies get stronger as you progress, so you'll need to scale up the power of your own aliens using Power Pellets you find as you go. You can use them to increase your aliens' attack power, fortify your aliens' defenses, or allow them to attack more swiftly.
Controls:
Add/Remove Pellet: Left/Right click pellet icon under card.
Move Card: Click on card you wish to move, then slot you wish to move the card to. (The card you select will flash grey when you click on it)
Discard Card: X or click "Discard" button while selecting card in lineup (you can not discard cards in your hand)
Go to Combat: Z or click "Fight" button
Preview Enemy Lineup: Hold left shift or click "Preview Enemy" button
How to play:
You'll receive cards that represent different aliens to send into battle. You'll be able to see their attack power, defense, speed, and health on these cards, as well as any special abilities they have. You'll also see how many combat rounds they'll stay around. Once all their combat rounds have been exhausted, they'll be discarded. Play your cards carefully, as you only have so many, and once they're gone, it's game over. If you don't like the cards in your hand, you can redraw once per round to get the lineup you want. Don't feel pressured to use your cards, any cards you don't place in the lineup are returned to the deck.
After each combat round, you'll earn at least one random pellet to use to increase your aliens' stats. Some units benefit from certain pellets more than others, so it'll be up to you to decide how best to distribute them. You'll be able to freely swap the pellets around however you see fit, and aliens that leave will return their pellets to you.
