Really like the juicy effects that you added, like the screen shake and the recoil to the player's weapon. I also like the planning phase, when you get to place traps and structures before the enemy attacks you. Also, the music and the graphics fit the game quite nice :) Great job!

Sky Fendersas artsy mentioned, this is really polished and a ton of fun to play! this is a great entry and a fun take on the gauntlet theme.

it came from the cave...Really fun to play! The sprites are really nice, and the background could look equally as polished with some more time I suspect :)
The difficulty curve was fun but still challenging. I think that it's not particularly clear what the goal is. I figured out that the keys opened the blue doors but only by accident :P (then again I am pretty dumb so might not be an issue).
Overall really polished for a jam title, excited to see what comes next :)

it came from the cave...Hey Thanks :)
Yea, I should have used the extra week to try to make a tile set and design levels :( .
I'm not really an artist :P, I compiled Aseprite from source and spent a long time redoing art until it looked good.
I think with a door sprite with a big flashing key hole the door will make more sense :)
I'm thinking about carrying on working on the game and changing a few things :)
+ Finish Sprites
+ Change controls to mouse + keyboard / duel stick shooter
+ Have multiple levels with a 5 star rating
Though I might try some other Game Engines first :)
Had fun in my first Game Jam :D
I love this genre of tower defense with a player character (ie: Orcs Must Die, Sanctum).
This is a surprisingly ambitious entry for a game jam. The fact that it works is impressive, and even more that it’s quite fun!
As a suggestion, I would like to have much larger maps that provide more room to maneuver and tactical opportunities.
Thanks :) . Orcs Must Die was one of the inspirations for this game :D
Yea I think you're right. Each room should be about a screen size or a little bit more.
The AI is smart enough to navigate mazes to get to the player/factories, but the level design and that the player can't place barricades doesn't really show them off.
I think I'll work on the project a bit after the jam with 3 main changes.
1. More levels with better level design
2. Duel stick / mouse keyboard controls instead of Gauntlets control scheme
3. Better performance.
wow... This is amazing!
I played only a few minutes, but the playability, graphics, sound design, difficulty... I found everything to be pretty dawn good with this game. Nicely done!
