I think this game deserves more attention, I had way too much fun with it. The tactical element of the game really shines, and makes it stand out completely from the majority of the submissions. Polish it a bit more and you can totally sell this game. Awesome job!!

This game is super cool! I had a lot of fun trying to make crazy combos. And the idea of the boss round where you pick an extra powerful modifier is a really cool! Although with the boss round, it's quite the jump in difficulty. Excellent job overall though!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, glad you liked it! I'm currently trying to nerf the boss rounds however I can. One idea I had is already out on version 0.1, but I've already thought of another way that it could work, which will be coming in future updates. If you want to follow the post jam version of this game of course!

Any chance you'll be making a mac or browser version of the game? It looks really interesting :o

Developer

Sorry, I don't think I'll be able to do that. It's the second time I'm making a game using my own engine, and I already run into problems exporting it into an executable. Just thinking of all the changes I'd have to make so that it could run in a browser is a lot. If I made it using unity then it'd be a whole lot easier.

But for mac it should work, as well as any other operating system. Not sure if it does, as I haven't experimented with it, but from what I've read it should be functional.

It was worth trying this game again now that it works.
At the beginning I expected that it'd be bad if you can choose towers that shoot at you, but it doesn't make the game too easy, the difficulty is just right and it's super fun.
I also like art and music.

Really cool idea, i enjoyes a lot playing this game, there is just the issues that i'm unable to position a tower in round 1 and the spiral shooter is way more op than other towers, even more when with the bounce upgrade. Great work developing this game!

The game doesn't work for me.

It's my first time exporting a project from java to exe, so apparently I did it wrong. It should work now though if you're willing to download it again

Of course, I'll play it soon.
