There have been a few games with this theme at this year's jam but the tutorial and beautifully clear presentation really makes this one stand out. Seems like this could build out into a full game pretty easily

Cool reversal on tower defense games. I wish the game was harder and had more mechanics because it was kind of easy. The tutorial was very good and the interactions were very fluid. Good job.

Hony Tawk's Film MakerSimple concept, but fun game, good job! I think having wave-based gameplay instead of real-time would be more true to genre, but that's just a personal preference, so don't worry about it.

UnThrusty SwordI love the theme and your presentation! Could be better if the units have more diverse functionalities based on their class. Please check out mine as well!

Touch of LightStylish and colorful game. I really appreciated how the units & environment popped.
The rapid pace of the spawns really helped keep up the frantic energy of the run.
Good job!

Dark King GorbinThe game looks pretty polished, but as with my own game, it's unbalanced. Anyway, thanks for this short experience!

5 days at chick'sOkay, that tutorial joke about the player winning was 10/10
A bit too spam-y for my taste, but still an impressive game, with animation, music, and mostly a fully in-game tutorial. Great job! =)

Spiritual ReversalThis was pretty fun, but really unbalanced since you can just save up a ton of money and overwhelm the player all at once. The catapult mechanic could help deter that in theory, but a different thing you might consider doing in a future update is having the game pause between waves and cap your resources so you're incentivized to make better strategic use of your units.
really enjoyed this. love that ur not limited to spawning at just the start

Normal ActivitiesWhat a slick and very polished UI implementation! Def get some TABS vibes from the visuals. You may want to experiment with a cooldown between spawning waves. I found myself sometimes just spamming the most expensive unit I could afford as quickly as possible to overwhelm the player. Spawn cooldowns could add another strategic element to the decision making. Overall a very solid game and well executed! Awesome job!

ReverSoulsGreat game! Would've loved more difficulties for more challanging and strategic gameplay!

Savage RavageLove the presentation, amazing what you could do with only 48 hours, plays great, and the tutorial was a nice implementation. Overall great job, and glad to see another tower defence/offence game that's still different from mine lol.

P.V.A Tower OffenceReally liked your take on this concept. I think passing the tutorial by the player winner was a genius addition that really set the tone for this. Also liked the sort of chaotic nature of getting spawning things in, really good base for the game. Just would have loved more levels!

Tower Attack GameThe Humor was good. The game overall was a bit fast paced, I almost only spammed random units because there was no time to think
