Loved already geoDefense and geoSwarm (hopefully there will be published some more levels too). Not easy, a real challenge, very fine modernized retro graphics and impressive sounds. geoSpark looks really good.

It does have a high learning curve, which you point out to be it's biggest draw back(though the levels actually do start out extremely easy, with a verly slight raise in difficulty from one to the other), but it feels as if you didn't play the game enough to get past it, to "learn it". I found that as I went along there was a real progression in skill where I could go back to earlier levels that troubled me and blast through them. Once I found myself used to the game, I never had those moments, that you describe, where deaths were out of my control, weren't my fault. Perhaps you just prefer tower defense games, and I am hardly saying you are wrong, I personally didn't love geodefense(or tower defense games in general) but excuse me for attempting to make the excuse, "perhaps it's not the game that sucks, but you."

Not my thing, but clearly there's a market for it judging by the reception in these comments.

Why was there no mention that VW is actually GIVING AWAY REAL CARS!? It's far less "cheesy" when you can win an actual GTI...
