How does your game fit the theme?
You join forces with 2 NPCS to create barriers that destroy robots that are trying to invade your town. Click above or bellow the player to choose what barrier to activate. If you let the robots reach the town, you'll lose life and, eventually, lose the game.

Did your team create the vast majority of the art during the 48 hours?

Yes

We created the vast majority of the art during the game jam

At one point in my second play, only two enemies spawned and then all the dots to save, I will call this "forgiving" haha. Really interesting idea, good job!

Developer

Hahaha. Well, you're welcome hehe.

And thank you! :)

I like how you combined the defence tower concept and the Join Together concept. It's very orginal, I like it a lot! Good job!

Thank you! or maybe we should say thank you kindly and tip our hats hehe.

Simple but there's a new concept than control two players. Good job

Developer

Thank you, thank you. Much appreciated :)

cool concept. You make this a rythm game and maybe add where you can drag the mouse to change what is linked to what and you got a winner on your hands :)

Wait, we didn't think of that. That mechanic sounds really fun!

We'll definitely try that out :)

Such a cool and fun concept, honestly addictive! I love how simple and effective this game is.

It's a fun mechanic! It's very short, but it feels like there's plenty of scope for expansion.

Developer

Thanks! We're actually planning on spawning both robots and townspeople to the beat of a song. That might be cool :)

We'll also make sure to increase the number of people to save. 5 is not nearly enough hehe.

Fun little game, sad that it's so short, this could have been a great endless runner ;-)

Thank you! This was our first game and, well, there was E3 looming in the background hehe.

There's so much more we wanted to add, so we'll keep working on it :)
