I think putting the player in the game designer's shoes is a rad idea! It was pretty cool putting myself in the ai player's shoes and realizing I would also have been excited by mowing down a field of trash mobs :). Overall, I think the game could use some heavy polish in most places, but I'd love to see this concept developed out farther. Good job!

Are the potato like creatures friends or foes?

I couldn't get the player to enjoy the game. No matter what monster I put down, the player would complain!

The summonable creatures are from level 1 to 5 from left to right, the more the player kills the more they get happy. upon reaching certain limits of happiness (or boredom) or the player dying, the game will end and the player will give a feedback according to the state of the ending.
You probably couldn't get the player to kill enough mobs in time. the balance is probably off. but hopefully the idea of the game was clear.

The idea of the game was clear. I was probably placing high level units since I didn't know the difference.
