Is the last wave supposed to be beatable?
There aren't enough resources in the preceding waves to afford more than 4 maxed-out towers, which is not nearly enough.

The 21st wave is not supposed to be beatable it's more of a how much can your defenses hold up. Its randomised each time you play too.

Ah.   One of your screenshots is showing an impossible state, I think :)

The endless wave overwhelms my stuff VERY quickly.   I'd suggest more pre-programmed waves ahead of the endless wave.  Or some other way to allow more use of the full game map and upgrade tree.

This was made for a game-jam in a week I have a full released plan with something similar.


The screenshot was pre-nerf.

I rebalanced the game to be easier at the start and has a slower curve at the end. If you could retry the game and offer some feedback it would be much appreciated!

Nice! I played it again! I tried all combinations, linear, vertical, horizontal, zig-zag, etc. but couldn't get beyond 49k lol

Reply
TheAtrxcityDeveloper1 year ago

That looks like a really cool design. Don't forget to upgrade towers they get a lot stronger with their max upgrades. And even though the rock towers seen slow they have a huge range and do a lot of damage. 


PS can I add your screenshot to screenshots? 

Reply
Libon27Submitted1 year ago

Thanks for the tip! Sure, go ahead.

This has to be one of the best submissions! I really like the gameplay and the music!

One thing that would be nice is some kind of ingame tutorial because it took me a little bit to realize that I can upgrade the walls

I get a Black screen, but only if I want to use the green Tower. 

But overall, this game is fantastic

there is a bug, if you build a tower too close to another tower, i get a blackscreen. Other than that, I like the game quite a lot.
