The gameplay loop works, and it is challenging, but it definitely needs audio and some more charm to make it more engaging.
Very enjoyable take on tower defense. I really like the puzzle-y nature that comes out of this symmetrical grid style approach. Very nit picky thing, but I would have loved to see a mouse-over tooltip for the unit types, as I forgot how the healing tower worked. It was a lot of fun though. I'll add this to my collection to give it another go.
I enjoyed the game, but I think it could benefit from more waves. It felt like I was just getting into the strategy when the game ended. Adding more complexity over time would allow players to make mistakes and refine their tactics. The core mechanics are solid, though, and I can see you’ve put a lot of effort into making it work. Keep it up!
Had fun playing! I think I made an op orientation immediately for the amount of waves that exist in the game. I was just thinking to myself how this tower placement pattern won't work long term as the aoe tower's that are placed further in wouldn't have enough range to attack when the game told me I won soon after.
I think having more waves would make this game even more fun, as it will give player more chance to mess up and to keep iterating through their strategies until they could make one that works, enjoying a longer game.
I think your focus seems to be in the programming & making a gameplay loop that works so good job on doing so! I can see that it must be fun trying to code it.
