This puzzle game is fascinating, and one of the best I've tested.

How does your game fit the theme?
We took the idea of a tower defence game, and inverted it - now you're playing as the invading force instead.

Great job on this, love puzzle games so this was right up my alley.
Great implementation of the theme - this is what the author intended.
Fun game which isn't as easy as it look at first glance.
Looks great too, I love this style. Well done!
Nice concept! Easy to understand and fun to play! Great first two levels to get to know the game! Good work!
wow, great job on making such an interesting game! i love how you turned TD into more of a puzzle game. the art is super cute as well, nice work!
This game is so good! Creative puzzles, and everything is perfectly timed and calculated to look and sound great. I would have liked a speed up button, but it's not necessary. Very impressive overall
First 5/5 across the bord I've seen in a little while! We steered clear of "reverse tower defense" because we were afraid we couldn't make it intersting with a unique spin, but you've done such a great job, I absolutely love the puzzle elements! I kinda wish there were a speed up button, bc for some levels I just wanted to throw some units out to see like where to place the archer to hit the button when I wanted him too before planning out my whole strategy. Really great work here!
I also created a reverse tower defense game, and really like the approach that you took with this one! the puzzle aspect was really unique, and the music + art was really great and well fitting. It would've been nice for the layout the player had chosen to be saved between tries/for there to be fast forward button, as dragging the characters over and over to the same spot became tedious after a bit. The levels were incredibly well made, and level 5 in particular was a really difficult but interesting puzzle. Overall great game!
Thanks for playing, and the detailed comment! We actually did have a fast-forward in the game when developing, however we took it out due to some last-minute bugs that there wasn’t time to fix. As for the resetting every time, I agree that it’s a bit annoying; it would have been another one of those things I would have implemented if we had more time.
This is a nice puzzle game. It just took me a while to figure out that the wizard is counter attacking. Or why the wizard was disabled for a specific level. Probably to make it easier to solve. But overall a good game and nice graphics!
This game is really fun. The art looks good and the sound effects are satisfying. The gameplay is very easy to grasp and has a good learning curve. The only thing missing from this game is a speed up button, as the last level had a very long path and became tedious after a few attempts
This was a whole bunch of fun! :D
Was a little confusing to not know what units exactly did until placed and a little strange that my unit placement got removed on retry.
A great idea!
I really enjoyed playing the game. The assets are very climatic, however gameplay sometimes feels like a pure bruteforce because it's easier to try over and over rather than actually calculate proper distances tile by tile before sending troops.
This game was really fun to play! I loved the polished art and sounds!
