Launched 100 troops at once - GG
one remark: the option dialog was broken. could not adjust any volume setting.
Oh and the drawing perspective was sometimes.... confusing. Did you consider isometric? I think it would have been a good fit for that game
when i ran it from a .exe the spawn count got a lot higher with better stability! im gonna play with that in the future
Oh with GG i meant that I overran the opponent giving them 0 chance. The game did not crash, everyhing worked fine at fullscreen web
There's a lot of content here which is super cool given the time limit! I enjoyed the core loop — fighting and grinding out coins and then mass spamming troops to overwhelm the other tower.
I think the tutorial could have focused more on how to spawn the troops themselves. I completed the tutorial without using them. When I clicked the green circle, they never spawned so I just moved on to the next area. The tutorial says LMB or Space to interact, but I could only get them to spawn using Space. Luckily I figured that out during the first stage and it was a lot of fun from there!
Only other issue was the lag spikes, but I imagine that's just from having to instantiate a bunch of new units at once. All in all, a cool project!
I choose to start with the tutorial, but still couldn't figure out how to place towers. It might be nice if that was made more apparent in the tutorial stage. I also think I hit either a bug, or a serious lag when I went out to face the enemies, the whole game was frozen for probably a good 10 seconds. I like the idea of playing along with your troops to defend a tower but would have enjoy this more with clearer explanations of how to do things.
I admit I got a little lost on what exactly to do for a while, but it looks like a very solid base for a fun tower defence game! Well done!
thank you!
i really like the top-down, scroll-to-zoom mechanics.
thank you! i was origionally going to have day and night levels too but i honestly just forgot to make the final level dark....
very cool concept, appreciate the hand drawn environment, wish there was a little variety for troops and enemies, as well as sfx, but overall solid game! great work guys
thank you this is the first "working" sub I think I've done so far, I'm debating on flushing it out and re-releasing it, im glad you liked it!
