In what way does your game fit the theme?
The game used the theme to create a tower defense game where the towers have a limited time to operate. You can give the towers more time by "Re-winding" them.

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Most of the code and assets were hand made.

I loved the game! I liked the idea of making a dynamic tower defense, I had a lot of fun! I just didn't really understand how the theme fits, but great job!

Great game. Had a lot of fun playing. Some suggestions. I feel like grid system would help this game a lot. Also maybe make buying turrets like grabbing them, but only if you have enough money and space. (Current system is clunky and is not responsive). And maybe allow to rewind turrets without picking them up, Because i see almost no difference, but it would make rewind turrets a lot smoother process.

I like the concept! Though i found the best tactic was to just spam towers, and rewinding all of them got tiresome after a while :P

pretty nice concept! I love Tower defense games! Your game was pretty cool. Congrats!

Could you rate and play my game?

Actually the exact same concept I had for my game :) Interesting to see other people's take on it. I couldn't quite get the towers rewinded. The controls stated you had to right-click, but nothing happened for me. I also would have liked a way to exit the game without using alt-f4. Otherwise fine job!

Hi thank you for the feedback. To rewind the tower you need to pick them up with the left click and right click while having the left click still held.
