Cute art style.
Would this genre be called "tower offense"?
I won most of the levels just by randomly clicking stuff. I probably could have gone with a better strategy if I had experience with tower defense games.

Fun game with cute art, really enjoyed playing it! It could benefit from more strategic depth and rebalancing, as currently spamming units quickly seems to be the most effective approach. Nonetheless, the theming and aesthetic are great. Well done!

MirrorHeartFun game, it's easier to tell which unit will do what than in most other reverse tower defenses I played in this jam. Although without a money system, it lacks some strategy, the answer seems to always be to through as many people as you can as quickly as you can to distract the turrets, which is a shame

Fruit Massacrewow we are suppose to send in enemies to win a game in TD? great idea!

Don't Invade Our Space!Great theming on the game. As others have mentioned, just spamming the buttons is the way to win. If you take this further you should tell us what the units do too. As im sure that'll contribute to the strategy

Shark BaitFun idea and I love the aesthetic of the candy kingdom so much. Needs a little rebalancing, I found that spamming units whenever they were off cooldown was enough to get deathless in most levels since the AI couldn't keep up, but that can be fine tuned later. Well done!

Flip 'N' BurnThe game was very well made overall, but I felt the gameplay a little off. Maybe if there was some sort of cost to each unit I would feel a bit more engaged.
The game was great anyways, great work!

Devs vs DummiesSweet presentation (pun intended!)! A little easy for my taste tho, as there is no monetary system involved, it relies on your ability to spam units when cooldown is on.
I get that's a jam game though, and it's a good one! Nice reference to that 2000's candy :)
Good job team!

Farming Like A BossI like the theming around it being a candy prison. Also was fun thinking of a strategy to get my people across

Keep Up Camera Man!The idea of reverse tower defence game is pretty neat, not gonna lie...
It doesn't really involve that much strategy though, you can win by merely just spamming all units...
It doesn't mean that the game isn't fun, though. I still had a good time playing this short little game and the candy land aesthetics really improve the experience!

Caversethis game looks so good! I found it pretty easy to beat without deaths, but was still a fun time

[Out of Frame, Out of Game]Cute cute art. I love that you had a death count to make sure that players sent out the jawlbreakers with strategy instead of just sending them out willy nilly.
Try my game? https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2023/rate/2158241
