How does your game fit the theme?
In short, it follows the story of a robot who lives in peace until his old companions disturb his tranquility. In terms of gameplay, I also give players breaks between rounds so they can calmly collect coins and place the turrets wherever they want.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, never did a tower defense before. But all the assets and sound are external.

Cute little game, I love the robot character :)
Great job with this! I noticed the coin collection got difficult if they wandered to the edge of the map - maybe a height difference between the player and coin objects? Really well done though for the jam and keep up the good work!
i rly liked the graphics, and the concept is nice! i would suggest adding a gun for the player to carry also. nice game :D
I was running into bugs playing this--I could infinitely spawn the turrets for some reason--but intentionally playing while ignoring that is interesting. Initially weaving through projectiles to pick up coins, until you can eventually build up a safety net feels rock solid. In a game developed in more time, it'd need a lot more variety in both weapons and enemies for it to stick.
Interesting idea of helping to kite monsters in a tower defense game.
Adding more mechanics to reward the player for smart moving (like leading to traps or stacking monsters together) would add a lot to this game, otherwise its quite repetitive and no strategy needed.
Cute models, controls are in place.
Matching the theme quite nicely, although having a calm music in building mode would bring the right mood.
Good points! Noted, thanks!
I love the little guy! The gameplay is a bit repetitive so didn't spend long with it but it was quite fun. I found out that you can hold the turret even if you can't buy it and it will shoot enemies where-ever you are holding it and if it runs out of ammo you just cancel and reselect so that kind off broke the game but it was fun haha
Yep, that’s a valid point. I think adding more depth to the content and gameplay could solve it. Thanks for playing!
Nice concept! I like the idea of being the thing to defend in a tower defence like game.
Fun game
1) cool characters, robots, nice designs
2) Lots of enemies right off the bat, I love when gamejam wave based games start tough right away. Also having enemy variety is good
3) wish I could build and place more turrents immediately
4) found a fun bug (intended???) where if you just hold the turret you are about to build it still shoots for you
5) overall themeing could be better, why are the robots on an island and I can't go into the hosue :'(
Once those shooting robots got on the island, the difficult ramped up dramatically. I would say maybe ramp up the difficulty a little slower. I enjoyed giving the turrets ammo. And the music was great. I could definitely see this going forward with more levels, turrets and upgrades. It has a lot of potential to go beyond a game jam game. Great job!
very cool game👍
Interesting idea and good implementation with suitable music in the background
Really fun game. The gameplay was solid.
BUG: when you double click on tower icon you can spawn towers for free.
Overwall the game is cool and the concept is great! :D
Oh, thanks for the heads-up! I’ll fix it!
I had problems with the collision boxes too and maybe the input as well? Not sure if it was because of my browser though. I had fun playing!
Nice game concept. I some problems with the collision boxes. May be a problem with my browser
Pretty cool combination of bullet dodging and tower defense!
Fun game with some good models and a clear gameplay loop
The model was really cute and I really a good submission.

8/10!
