In the past, when a new wave came out, the game slowed down when double speed was enabled to give players time to react.

Ancient Planet is a very satisfying and addictive Tower Defence game with excellent and smooth visuals. The music is atmospheric and the power up system is progressive. It features some really nice looking enemies. Ayuoy! Ayuoy!

It's a fun tower defence that made me want to play more tower defence games. Been sat in my library for years but it's like $5, worth the price.

11 years after the game was released, here I am revisiting it, as I only just realised I had literally missed one single Steam achievement from the game. So.... Full game reset and we go again from the very beginning, heck, why not. This is a classic Tower Defence game, with quite nice graphics for the time. What it does is a little limited compared to some of the more modern games in the genre, but for fans of the...
