it's a clever idea but i'm not sure what the challenge is? once 2-3 standard wagons are up you have virtually infinite gold.

Nice one! Really enjoyed expanding my wagon imperium!

I just have one question: what is PV? At first I though it was my HP but then it started depleting constantly despite my wagons killing every enemy on the screen until it quickly reached negative numbers.

Overral a solid game,

Keep up the good work!

Like the game idea very much but right now gold wagons are over powered :)

Wow, such a similar game to ours! I'm really glad to see a bit of a different take on it where you have coins instead of exp as we were thinking of which option to go! I'm not sure how, but I couldn't place turrets on the outer rings, instead they stacked on the first ring and hence was impossible to lose, but great fun while building the carts!

Really nice concept and potential! I think gating or balancing the options a bit would help.

Great Game, there is the potential to make it really really fun ! 12/10

It’s a fun game! I think it might benefit from having fewer options, with more meaningful differences between them, and a more conservative cap on power. The early build I’ve played has felt in need of tuning. I’ve found it trivial to save up a whole lot of gold with miners early game, then invest in big guns, softlocking myself from purchasing any more wagons but also never needing to purchase anything again.

Really satisfying to see all the turrets looping on the rails! I just wish we could see what each turret does in game. I was just clicking anything I could afford and when I least expected I had -50k health xD Other then that, really cool! Keep up the good work!

Really good game, although it does seem to snowball a bit quickly

Great game! I loved the creative way you implemented the theme with the minecarts looping around, the gameplay was quite fun, and the music was quite good. The only thing that held the gameplay of this back for me was that it didn't feel like the enemies were increasing in power/number enough to give a good challenge, other than that though this was a great experience!

11/10. When I go on itch I look for these types of games. Very compelling!

Brilliant game all round! Really enjoyed the dynamic resulting from the concentric layers of rails and utilising these mechanics to beat more enemies. Very addictive gameplay, could easily see myself playing this game for extended periods of time if it had more stages, upgrades etc.

A really nice take on a looping tower defense. I like how the turrets pay out every time they loop, but I found it almost impossible to lose after building up a small amount of wealth as the balance snowballs. Nice artwork on the assets, some more sound effects would have been great. All in all, good work.
