How does your game fit the theme?
Our base idea was the opposite of a tower defense game, in which you control the enemies. It kinda evolved into an RTS, but you still control enemies and avoid fire from towers while trying to make it to the end of the level!

That was great, I like the attack/defence mechanic, and how you only indirectly control you units.

What a fun way to do this! Definitely keep going with this game, have something really fun here. Would love to be able to buy different units and face different kinds of traps and stuff beyond the arrows etc. Great job!

There are definitely plans for all of those things, so stay tuned I guess. Thanks for playing!

We kinda made the same game: Reverse Tower Defense with Goblin attackers. There were multiple others, so I made a collection.

Seems like we were both thinking about creative and dynamic ways for how to control the attacking units. I like how you went more into an RTS direction! My one critique was gonna be, that it  feels a bit too easy, but I think the end of Level 3 feels pretty great, difficulty wise.

Very cool game! Great job!

Really loved this game. I liked how, unlike other tower offense games I've seen this jam, I felt like I was leading my troops directly.

This game is pretty good! I played through every level.

I got some Overlord game vibes. The minions controls remind me of that game. :)

really nice game, only wanted to play more

Super fun, I've seen a few reverse tower defense games, and this was my favorite so far! Surprisingly good difficulty curve also for such a short time to create!

Great game! The idea was executed very well, and the game had a lot of polish! I really liked the idea of controlling your army by going into battle with them! Well done!

Awesome game, really well done. 

If I'm being nitpicky for the sake of feedback, I found the attack option difficult to utilize how I intended it to.

Very well polished game, really really fun!

Very fun, controls well, and cute artwork! Nice balance of difficulty, just managed to beat level 3 with only my king remaining. Great game!

Simple concept done well! Great use of the towers to keep the player switching between offence and defence. 

Wish it was longer!

Feels great to play! Really cool controls, and I love the bored look of the goblin king. Died on Level 3 but almost made it! Well done!
