This game looks really cool! I enjoyed playing it although it was a bit easy. You could basically win the game with two which towers. Apart from that it’s cool though and with maybe more enemy types and more balancing this could be a great game. Good job!

How does your game fit the theme?
In two ways:
1. The core gameplay mechanic of tower defense embodies the idea of the calm before the storm. Limited time to figure out defenses.
2. The nostalgia mode toggle sets the game's aesthetic to match games from our (the developers) childhood, and the addition of muffled arguing helps to convey the reality that nostalgia for many people whose childhoods were affected by events outside of their control was just the feeling of the calm before the storm.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, the music and SFX are royalty free, but everything else is hand made.
