Pretty fun to play for a bit. It took me a while to figure out how to rotate the island but it was fun to play!
I am glad you had fun with the game :D
I really like the art style that you used! The camera movement felt a bit wonky sometimes, and the cursor didn't follow occasionally but other than those bugs it was fun to play!
Thanks a lot for playing it! That's the game making sure that you can't build above the blocks and launchers.. I fix that with an icon now ;)
Good game. It fan genuinely fun. Some balancing could help as you can basically place green catapults all over the map and be done with the enemy in no time. The sounds takes me back to old DOS games :D Good work!
Thanks a lot for playing it! Yeah, you could before place a lot of launchers with mines and being able to drop the castle very quick, however with the new enemy "Dragon", he can destroy many of your launchers if you abusing too much the castle, let's say that the risk is increased this new update :]
The graphics and sound are very retro lul "I loveeee Breaking The Tower"!
Good game! There is a bug when you pause the game: it moves the trees and deletes your stuff!
Thanks Cenphon! That's not a bug, is a button in the top-right corner of the screen true? That's a reset button to retry the game, the game have a pause, it happens when you use your browser doing other things , i debug to found the problem,i didn't found any trouble ;)
ah, when I clicked esc on my keyboard, it said 'game paused' so I unpaused and then I realized that everything was gone!

Thanks Handy! I am glad you enjoy it, im playing plot hole :P
Really fun game man. I did two playthroughs. I found a strategy that worked for me (I didn’t really use the cannons, just mines) and beat it, but I really wanted to get the Love Hot, so I played it another time and got it.
You did a really good job recreating that old 90s style feel, all the way down to the UI and the sounds.
It was a little on the slower side, I assume because of all the cubes in the tower? There are things you can do to optimize that. One trick is building those cubes all into one mesh and just rebuilding the mesh when one gets destroyed.
All in all really fun game. Thank you for sharing and I’m sorry to hear about your grandfather.
Thanks a lot Nathan, the game is totally made from Raycasting Sprite techniques, those aren't 3D cubes, they are tesselators represented with bounds and a single sprite that follows the camera, i found that i can fix this by hiding unwatchable castle blocks, like those in the inside, by the way, i really like how is going the development, im finishing for the end of the jam a Creative Mode, so you can build your castle and fight against it :3
"Sorry for the delay of the reply"
I liked your game, the sound with a lot of catapults realy look like popcorn. Enjoyed your game and the final surprise.
Thanks a lot Trevz! They really sound like popcorn when there's many haha! The secret is for you and all of the players made with love, also for my grandpa ;]
Fun gameplay, I liked watching my little catapults rain down destruction!
I think that's one of the things i like the most from my game hehe :D
I quite like the art style, reminds me of the old Final Fantasy games (1 and 2). The game play can be confusing but I figured it out in the end! Great job!
Thanks m8! The art was directly inspired by a game called Breaking The Tower, a very old cool one.
Interesting concept. I can see this game turning out a great game with some polish. Not a fan of the artstyle, but that's personal preference.
I think so! That's why i started working on a creative mode, where you build your own castle, maybe after the jam is done i upload it so you guys can play around and have tons of fun! :]
good game
i realy like the gameplay
arts are different in a good way
great job
Thank you very much! I'm about to play yours ;)
This game grew on me quickly, it was slow to start but pretty soon I had an island full of catapults and was dropping nukes. Some really nice concepts at work and could easily become a popular idle game with some more polish. Really good job!
I am glad you enjoy it man! I'm working now on the game, on a creative mode where you build your own castle to then fight against, hehe :]
Fun game! Would love to see more maps!
Thanks dima! I believe i could add even islands with lava, and different elements that affect your launchers! Sounds cool right? Idk i could do many things hehe :]
Awesome simple fun!
Thanks Craig! Im playing Going Deep and about to rate it, i'll let you know :]
Thanks that means a lot to me!
Got to 46k in 6,5 minutes. Had my fun though, but the only thing is that the audio started to get bit broken when the island was filled with catapults etc.
Thanks my guy for playing it! That's one thing i have to look at, cause i think i over polish the audio coding and then i use only two audioSources for everything, i believe i can fix that with some more, thanks for the feedback ;)
Good game!
Thank you ejsergi! :D
