Really impressive! I think the pathfinding needs a small rework, but I would love to see more content on it. Thanks for the play!

How does your game fit the theme?
The map you play tower defence on gets bigger and bigger, so your defence has to be build to be scaled and ripped apart.

Nova Graft CoreHi NitramiuZ. I really enjoyed your game. A great tower defense with a cozy artstyle, really good music and sound effects. And the expanding map was a smart idea too. By the way, I remember that you are the winner of the GMTK last year. I even made a video predicting you were going to win. I hope you reember it.

Marine Race Built to ScaleSuch a great game! Adorable artstyle, really good music and sound effects. The only thing that bothered me a bit was that the lizards appeared too early in such large numbers. Other than that, it was really fun to play ♥ Good job and good luck with your future projects! ♥

Doomsday CultureLove the game, ridiculously good for solo dev to do, especially one with apparently no pro experience, you have a bright future in games!
I do wish your defenced scaled OR there was an opportunity to invest in economy at the expense of defences to control your scaling.

NeuromotherIt was a heap of fun! I did enjoy the SFX and the art a lot; so great job on that.
Like other people have mentioned, the three lives representing eggs was an extremely clever move. It gets you upset when you see your first egg being taken away, but it makes you push harder to see the last 2 stay put. The mom to daughter dialogue makes you feel a connection to the character that I like!
Overall great game, good job!

Matter of SizeGreat game. I got to the end and thath doesn't happen in every game.
Game is well ballanced, three lives representing eggs feels right.
Good job.

Flip & Pouncevery fun (and addicting) little game, especially love the artstyle. It’s very charming. Nice entry :)
Submitted
Miniscule MovementsVery fun and well polished game! Feels good to play. My only minor complaint would be the controls as I often found myself pressing the wrong keys or forgetting how to close the build menu. Good take on the theme and cool idea with the expanding map in a tower defense game. I like the art and music. Good work!

ADVENTURE : spaceThis is a really fun game! Love the overall style, and I kept replaying in the hope to do better (but those pesky lizards were tough! haha)
