The game is really well implemented, I like how the turrets are designed and the enemy's following the path etc. But it will be nice if some kind of story were there, to make the player feel more engaged with the game. Nice work!

Great game! Really enjoyed playing it :) Took me 3 or 4 times at the beginning to understand the game and try again but then it started to be really fun! Well done :D

Wow, I LOVED this game. The mechanics are not necessarily very unique, buuuut that does not mean it isn't a top-class game. I actually played and finished till lvl 11 twice because of how fun it was.

For me it is a showcase-worthy game for the jam, and as such I have added it to my list pertaining to it. With a more story, polish and design, it can be a real nice indie game. Good job. Bravo.

Looks promissing to me. i think it is the first tower defense genre i have seen on this gj so far.

I spent a good deal of time in this one. I’m a sucker for a good tower defense game. Great UI and responsive controls. I was playing for a while thingking “Ok, this is fun, but what does it have to do with holes?” and then I let a wave get past my defenses and found out the hard way. That’s a really cool mechanic that works perfectly for the genre and adds a more tangible punishment for mistakes than most tower defense games have.

The world itself is a little bland and looks like it’s still using prototype textures, but that’s the only thing I could think of to complain about. Great game.

Honestly, I played your game longer than any others. I think I beat it as no other waves came after 11/11. Had a blast, simple design. Amazing work for having made everything on your own in only a week. Only critique would be the sound design. Lasers had a very harsh sound, making me not want to use them, even though they were so powerful. Very well done!!!

Starts up as you typical tower defense, then suddenly you get a long line of enemies and notice that the game doesn't end there but holes start to appear on the map. Got into the wave 9 and had fun. Only question is the stack able towers intentional?

Submitted(+1)

Starts up bit slow. You can stack towers onto eachother, i don't know it was intentional or not but it sure makes content trivial (https://gyazo.com/493517b7e6f1162e71f79fcccd8b91ac).  Wish there was some kind of wave control, so i could set up challenging enough difficulty myself - "wave rush" mechanic for example. Turrets look good. Some music would be nice.  Nicely done.

Really really good i hope you continue to work on this after the jam but even if you don't you should be proud of this

WOW! This is probably one of the most fun tower defense games I've played... like ever. By far my favorite jam game yet! This an amazing game that uses a unique life mechanism, fun towers, and different enemies. In the future you totally should add some music, spice up the visuals, add more cool unique towers, and you got a very nice game on your hands.

Thank you so much, this is the best comment i ever got 😊

I really love tower defense games and this one was definitely fun to play! My only real complaint is that the wave balancing is totally off. Most of the waves were entirely harmless then all the sudden you get one with a giant swarm of enemies. But overall, it was really fun to play. Hope you'll check out my game too :)

Very fun game. Nicely done!

Really liked the idea, but the holes only showed up once for me. I think this game would be even better if you really leaned into the hole mechanic. It's pretty unigue for a tower defese game. i may or may not have played this game a lot longer than I meant to :P good job

Submitted(+1)

Very nice work, really challenging if the ground breaks. I really like this game :)

Nice Tower Defense Game! Upgrades would have been cool, but I liked how the enemies created holes on the map! Also why are the red triangles so damn strong hahaha.

Developer

The last few waves were done in the last hour of the jam and I didn't have time for play testing. Glad you enjoyed it tho 😁
