This was such a fun game! The blend of strategy and action kept me engaged, and the art style is fantastic. I had a bit of a learning curve at first, but once I got the hang of it, it was really satisfying. Nice work!

Thank you DayTripper, nice to hear your comment!

Wow, this was a pleasure to play. The sound design and music immediately pull you in. Paired with the incredible art it all works so well together. How you guys managed to make such high quality 3D and 2D art in such a limited time frame is beyond me. Genuinely impressive! I really liked the relation of the gameplay to the theme, that was a clever take on it. Really difficult learning curve, but the clear amount of effort and polish that went into this makes it a joy to replay and try and work out how to optimize each attempt. Really well done guys, this is a great entry.

The art and audio are incredible in this game. The UI is also super clean, definitely the nicest I've seen so far in this jam.

Thanks for sharing with my stream! Here's the VOD of your game: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2254453937?t=01h42m43s

Hey Aaaalan!

The art is super quite and I love the robot, the gameplay also is quite engaging. Lack of tutorial definitely hurts, also know where the enemies will come from when you are building up would have helped. Last feedback would be the collision between enemies and the player, I had a few times that I just got stuck between enemies or the wall and an enemy and couldn't get out which was really frustrating. But I do really like what you managed to make and would love to see it grow!

Super satisfying animations (lil pop was great). Struggled at first because I didn't know how to upgrade, but really delightful!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing our game ^^ 
Adding the little pop effect to bursting slimes made us laugh while making them; they look silly :D For now, the game only allows you to collect resources and create three different builds with those resources. So, there is no upgrading them yet.

REALLY COOL ! some tutorial could have been helpfull since i understood how to actually harvest resources only on my 4rth run :') but overall a really nice game, absolutly beautifull, i had a great time !

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing! Yes, unfortunately the tutorial didn't make it in time, but I'm glad you had a good time.

Thank you for playing our game ^^ 
We put the control settings on the game's page and also you can see the controls in the pause menu as well. But of course it would be much easier for the player to play a tutorial section in the game. Thank you for your input! It is one of the things that we are going to add to the game ^^

First of all 3D Models and the lightning attracts your attention immedieately. I like the animations and gameplay. Overall nice work. Good Luck!

Developer

Thank you for playing our game and your comment ^^

graphics and audio here are fantastic! fun use of the theme, though I couldn't figure out how to harvest the goop and lost on the first attack because of a lack of upgrades 😅 still had a good time though!

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you for your comment! we've written the control scheme in the pause menu and in the itch page but  probably it was easy to miss.  You can mine resources by pressing F. give it another try, I would like to hear more!

Very fun game, great graphics and unique use of the theme

Developer

Thank you BubbleShade!

Beautiful game. 

Maybe not most obvious theme implementaton, but waves are coming really like storm in this game. I love animation, effects and generaly art is done extreamly well here imo. Gameplay is  quite interesting and strategy aspect is nicely implemented. Grab resources wuickly and build deffence on time. 

I think you have great game and congrats on it!

Developer

Awesome game. Had a lot of fun.

Thank you Narsodos,  it means a lot!

What an awesome game, I love the art and the mechanic ideas are very cool too. This was a lot of fun! My audio was broken though, unsure what happened there.

Developer

Thank you very much! You care to elaborate a bit? In what way was it broken? Basically all sound effects got added in the last couple hours, so it's very possible we messed up somewhere.

Submitted

I had no audio at all 😅 I even restarted the game a few times and still nothing. My antivirus did scan the game when I first opened it, not sure if that could have messed things up.

Loved the game, amazing art.

Fun gameplay and smooth controls.

During the attach though my turrets sometimes didn't shoot and the enemies just stood there taking hits as I was shooting them. And somewhere on my second playtrough the enemies were all just stuck in the only way trough. I could not get past but they could not come to me either it seemed like.

Apart from that weird behavious it is an amazing game.

Developer(+2)

Congrats, you played long enough to find the hidden bugs! :D
Thank you for playing! We are aware of a couple of issues like this but didn't have the time to fix them, unfortunely.

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot, I appreciate the feedback! :D

Submitted(+5)

You guys did great! It's so hard to get a really polished 3d game with the mechanics you guys were doing, but I am impressed. I also appreciate that you added gameplay videos so I knew what I was downloaded! 

Developer(+2)

Thank you so much! We had so much fun while doing it. Hahaha yeah, when a game is only downloadable, it feels sketchy isn't it ^^ We're glad that the gameplay video worked for us!

Developer(+2)

Thank you so much! Also, I love you profile pic :D

Very fun game! Your team did very well, melee attack is a bit finicky, but other than that, It was exhilerating to fend off the alien hordes.

Thank you for playing our game ^^

Really cool game, love the mechanincs and the procedurally generated map. I only found it a little bit hard to start and sometimes it does not shoot for no reason.

Developer (1 edit) (+4)

Thank you very much! Yes, it's not an easy game. Did you know that you can't shoot while sprinting? Either that's the reason or you found a bug!
