really cool take on a tower defense, at first i had no clue what i was doing so maybe some explanation would be good

Developer

Thank you! Yea would've loved to add a small tutorial to start, but I barely made it as is haha. After the jam maybe :)

presentation is top notch, love the border effect to make it look retro. some audio such as sfx and music would really take it to the next level. great work!

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. Audio was next on the todo, but alas, no time. Some night atmosphere would've been great..

Satisfying art! I like the vibe of this game so much! Also, the game is cool itself too! Like the throwing of character onto each other, haha.

Really nice game, took a me while to find out how to fight back but when I did it felt great. Survived on my last fella.

Developer

hell yea, that's what I wanted 馃挭

Cool twist on a TD style game. I like that you have the option to save money if you have the reflex to move your little guys to avoid projectiles, rather than everything being static like in classic TD games. Also, are the little guys dabbing when they're moved? xD

Developer

Thank you, man! I was vibing out the design, so I didn't realize I was doing a TD until very late, so I'm glad it worked with the action-y pieces :)
I did not think of them as dabbing, but I see what you mean haha

I love the artstyle and would love to see some music and sound effects to back them up

The twist on the tower defense game by adding base building and tycoon like elements was a really unique idea

At first I mimssed that u could move the ppl and that really stirred things up, it didnt just make it easy to dodge attacks but added a new layer of challenge

Not the biggest fan of strategy/base building games, but will say that this was something different.

Developer

Thank you!
Yea, I really wanted to add music, but in the end, I just ran out of time. Maybe I will update it after the jam :)

Very cool concept! It was missing a bit of music, but all the mechanics seemed to be well implemented!
