Fun game! How one can come up with such ideas? The physics really makes things much more fun. I love how physics enabled the trees are, and it's just fun to see trees shoot apples at footballs.

My mousewheel is broken and at one point the camera zoomed in _bellow the map_, and I couldn't zoom out again. Impossible to see the action anymore.

Absolutely hilarious :D I particularly loved how you could zoom right in to the action and view the chaos from ground level.

I love this so much haha

Glad you like it! I love when I watched my friends try it the first time, the laugh and expression when they figured out that the towers, has some side-effects!

Overall, pretty cool game. Some issues with towers falling down by themselves after placement, but regardless it was a fun twist on the traditional tower defense game.

Developer

Yeah, I suspect there is some issue with the physics calculations and time dependency. When running on my desktop natively, sometimes physics would just go bananas. Could not reproduce on any other computer, or in the browser, so it did seem like a pretty hard bug to figure out.

You're not alone, I screwed that up in my own game too! Lessons learned :)

He just wants to invent gravity yall... :( Very silly and fun game, my usual tower defence strategy of just maxing out power had... interesting consequences. Great game!

This game is wonderful, perfect combination of physics and tower defense! It works surprisingly well on the browser despite being 3D and featuring physics.

In my opinion the biggest thing that's missing is the music, but it's fine since you made this 3D game on your own for a game jam. Well done!

I had never encountered a tower defense with actual physics. It was really enjoyable to make towers that throw apples at footballs, and then knock themselves down because they couldn't handle the knockback. This game certainly put a smile on my face.

Such a nice game, well done!

Thank you! yeah it turned out to be a great concept! :D Friends of mine actually kinda broke the game and got high scores of over 2500 :D Did not think that was possible!

This game gets pretty chaotic pretty quickly, which I find to be a nice change of pace for tower defense style games! I couldn’t always tell what side effects my upgrades had though…

Developer (1 edit)

Yeah, the side effects are a bit on the subtle side, but one sure way to start noticing them is upgrading the damage of the tower first ;) and then maybe place towers opposite to each other or in a manner of regular games
