Did you work in a team?
Just me, it was a very nice challenge! Sadly i did not have the time to do it 100%

Was the resolution a challenge?
The resolution was tricky, but a very good way of not obsessing about the visual and focus on the code. Unity3d is not great when it comes to pixel perfect position/render. One of the hardest aspects (and one I should have found an alternative) is the use of text.

What did you learn?
I used most of my standard approaches, including fancy ruletiling and Tweening, which all worked surprisingly well at low rez.

The game was a lot of fun to play. You should consider adding some more levels after the Jam.

Thanks! glad you like it!
it is true that it runs a bit short, I will try to spend more time on it :D

I had fun with this, especially once I unlocked more rows and columns. I was a bit confused on what to do with the tower defense portion and what the upgrades did until I realized that you were playing the attacking force, not the defending one. The animations and visuals all felt very polished. Great job.

A great idea overall! Loved the sounds, they are really satisfying :) A tutorial would be great, as I couldn’t understand the tower defense part so I only focused on the tile matching part. A really satisfying game overall !

Thanks!
It is very confusing, I could not find a way of guiding the player on the low resolution, I should at least add a description in the submission page.

I love this! What a wonderful idea. Unfortunately after Mega1 the game won't let me continue... and I really want to!

Glad you liked it!
I did not do anymore levels, sorry :X

Oh! That makes sense. In that case, I'll just have to start it over again. :)

It's fun to play the match3 aspect of the game! It felt juicy and rewarding when you got an upgrade! However I didn't fully undrstand what the upgrades did/what was going on with the tower defense side of things. I'd suggest at least writing down some instructions on the game page and explaining the upgrade tree.
