Hey its the guy who made the art for "Spikes and Switches" here. 

WOW. I'm so glad I got around to playing your game. I'm serious when I say that the enjoyment is rated 5/5. I rarely give games a 5/5 on any rating, but this one does it. The problem with other tower defense games, is that they start of so slow. They give you weaker weapons and treat you like a baby trying to overtly explain how it works. Like yeah... I think I know what a gun tower does. I like that this game just tells you what something does in the bottom left and lets you play the game. Its more fast paced as well, it doesn't try to go easy on you, and I'm happy for that. I'm probably gonna revisit this game, because its really fun. Also I love the combine mechanic.

I don't really have any criticisms other than I feel like the theme wasn't utilized much. Its like, yeah, every tower defense game involves death as an opportunity. Idk, it doesn't really matter. It's fun, I hope you get a good ranking.

Enjoyed it quite a bit, Got a run of 10 minutes with 407 kill! The only thing that wasn’t clear for me was how much an upgrade was worth it, compared to just adding more towers.

I really liked the idea of mixing effect an tower type using the resources.

Well done!

Nice job ! 

I love tower defense games, and this one was great clever use of the theme, fun weapon combos, and that boss was cheeky in the best way!

Very solid tower defense game, I really enjoyed the graphics, amazing! I’d love it if you rated my game too!

Was a fun experience, but got overcrowded, and laggy, very quickly. Love the Septic MOAB. Not sure about the theme, I guess the enemies died to give me materials? I also did not know that I could move or shoot myself for a good while. Other than those small caveats, well made and fun.

This was awesome. I liked how you had to craft the different towers.Discovering the magnet was a game changer. Nice speed of progression. I played this for far too long lol. Awesome game jam!

I might be a bit biased about tower defense games as I really love them but this one was really good, and was a great usage of the theme, its fun to find combinations of materials that make different weapons. and the sam boss is cheeky but not out of place so you get a point for that

Really fun! I loved the endless tower defense style, and moving around to defend and collect resources was super cool, haven’t seen that before. Took me a bit to figure out how to move and spend resources, but once I got it, it clicked.

Only thing is the theme didn’t quite shine through, idk how it fits it? either way, the game was really solid and enjoyable!

longest I lasted was near 9 minutes aha so fun for sure!

The idea is the enemy's death is an opportunity to build new towers

I really like the game, it's nice, but it seems like any other tower defence with a nice mix and match tower system. 

Did play nice though

Took me a bit to get the hang of it, but once I figured it out it's pretty fun

Seems pretty good. The combining elements is pretty cool. I haven't played any tower defense games before though, so maybe I'm not the best person to judge this.

Game was fun and ran great! instructions were a little unclear though and I was lost on what to do for the first 2-5 minutes.
