Good sound! And an idea is perfect!
No easy to play solo but graphics and music are great ! :)
Nice and original TD :)
Interesting proposal, but the controls are a bit janky. Great pixel art and nice soundtrack !
Very cool take on the theme. Playing it solo is definitely challenging but once you get used to it, super fun. I am a sucker for TD games, so I always appreciate them in jams and this is a an innovated use of that genre. Took me a bit to get the R-Shift "heal" option working and that should be a bug or just Windows being wonky.
Overall this is am impressive game. Not overly difficult, but still I had a great time playing it. Well done!
Beautiful game 👍
This was very cool and I really enjoyed the visuals. For some reason the right shift button was broken on the web version (or at least didn't work for me). It was a cool tower defense game.
The game is really fun to play, love the implementation of tower defence concept here. Both the graphics and the sounds were great. I've had some minor issuses though - using Shift to perform actions is not the best idea for Windows because it triggers some annoying system popups. Also I couldn't tell when I could build new defences or when was the time to maintain existing ones or even when I was about to 'die' - the game could give a player better feedback on that.
Overall, it was a really fun experience, good job.
:D thanks for the input. Yes,we didn't think of the sticky keys on Windows :/ We originally used Right Control, but during testing, we realized that Control-W closes the tab XD, so we decided to use R-Shift.
Cool idea for a co-op game and very nice visuals!
Great pixelart and sounds. I loved the two characters and they compliment each other very well!
It would seem that the game is simple. From obvious newbies. But I played it no less than other games, did not turn it off, which means there is something in it. I see a bug in this game that objects and even holes in the ground are displayed in front of the heroes. This is easy to fix, you need to use sprite sorting layers, they are set in SpriteRenderer. And yet, the game menu is very beautiful.
