How does your game fit the theme?
Our game is based on a tower defense concept, the theme 'Calm Before the Storm' is reflected in the gameplay. At the start, there is a brief period of calm where the environment is peaceful, giving the player time to prepare. However, after this short calm, a massive wave of enemies begins to attack, bringing chaos and intensity. This sharp contrast between the calm preparation phase and the storm of enemy assaults directly ties the game’s mechanics to the theme.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
With a team of eight, including three programmers and five graphics team members, we created all the code and assets from scratch. The only exception is the music and sound effects, which were sourced from a royalty-free website called Pixabay.

Too short, and the enemies walk too slowly - a majority of the time is spent waiting for the enemies to get in range of the towers, especially on level 1.
Nice submission
I actually was wanting more. I was hoping I could upgrade the towers but it seems like a solid foundation for a tower defense game. Great job getting everything working smoothly and polished in only a week.
Great game!
Tower defense game that's got potential, it's a little too short and it wasn't too hard to beat. Was a decent experience!
Really cool game! i accedentally sold one of my towers on the first round so i almost died at the start but i managed to recover in the end 😭
Not bad in terms of design but it is really slow and you need some way to speed it up. Tower defense games really benefit form that feature that feature.
Cool game! It's definitely too short though...
Very nice and interesting game, good job
Nice job on the game!
I think to improve it then enemy units should be a bit bigger, maybe the towers too, actually I wonder if the whole thing should be zoomed in a bit.
Also think there should be a speed adjustment feature to make the wave faster or slower on-demand.
Absolutely superb! The gameplay is engaging and the design is top-tier.
Wow, thank you so much! 😊 I'm really glad you enjoyed the gameplay and design! It means a lot to hear that—it keeps us motivated to keep improving. Thanks again for playing and for the kind words!
Cool game! I wished there were more waves as right now the game is too easy but I guess for a jam submission it works. Keep it up!
Thank you so much! 😊 I totally agree, more waves would definitely add a fun challenge! I’ll keep that in mind for future updates. For the jam, I wanted to keep it simple, but I’m glad it still works! Thanks again for playing and the feedback—it really helps!
This reminds me of playing Bloons on CoolMathGames. It was very nostalgic, I wish there were more levels I didn't get to see my 50 gold tower fire :(. Loved the art too, great work to the team!
Thank you so much! 😊 It’s awesome to hear it brought back memories of playing Bloons on CoolMathGames—that’s such a classic! I’m sorry you didn’t get to see the 50 gold tower in action, but I’m definitely taking notes for future updates with more levels. 😄 I’ll pass the compliment to the team about the art too—they’ll love hearing that! Thanks again for playing and sharing your thoughts!
It has old school flash game vibes i wish it had move waves of enemies to fight but over all nice little game!
Thank you so much! 😊 I'm really glad you enjoyed the old school flash game vibes!
Brings me back to the old-school flash era of TD games! I'd definitely love to see more positions to place towers and better balancing between the differently priced towers (the expensive ones just dont feel worth their money at the moment)! It might be really helpful taking reference from your favourite tower defense games out there to see how to better pace each wave, some small adjustments can really make this game much more enjoyable!
Overall, great start! :D
Thank you so much for the thoughtful feedback! 😊 I'm really happy the game gave you those old-school flash TD vibes! I totally agree—more tower positions and better balancing are great suggestions. I’ll definitely take some inspiration from my favorite TD games to improve pacing and make those expensive towers feel more rewarding. Your input is super helpful, and I’ll work on those small adjustments to make the game even more enjoyable. Thanks again for playing and for the great advice! 😄
very nostalgic vibes ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧
Thank you so much! 😊 I’m glad it gave you those nostalgic vibes! ✨
Kinda gives flash game vibes, Good job!!
Thanks a lot! 😊 I love that it gave you those flash game vibes—that’s exactly what I was going for!
I like the overall vibes, It's a good starting point. the 50 gold tower did not feel worth it compared to the others but aside of that it was fun
Thank you for playing the game :)
This takes me back to the good old flash games. I felt 10 again. I always play Tower Defenders too. This looks great. It's not that much of a challenge to win, but that could be tweaked really quickly I think. This is a great game :)
Edit: If you continue this, I would add more infos about the towers, right in game. I have awful memory and did not remember what each tower did :D
Thank you for playing the game :)
I enjoyed playing it. After completing the game, I found myself wanting more levels to play.
Thank you for playing the game :)
liked the royal music in bg
