awesome concept and story and the towers were unique I enjoyed it very much.

The animations of the Mona Lisa --- hilarious. Very Terry Gilliam! The AI created art at the start is also hilarious. Kind of an odd mishmash of styles with the actual robots being very cutout looking.  Maybe that's the point? The game itself, worked really well. It was fun and pretty straight forward. So glad I could keep art safe for now...

Thanks for playing! Your game was hilarious as well. The robots were supposed to be a little more realistic and in closer style to the rest of the game. But I didn't have enough time to polish them. I did the first robot in the first 30min of the jam as a placeholder, thinking I would eventually add a bunch more stuff to it later. But then on the last day when I woke up, I looked at the clock and noticed there was only 30min left for the jam deadline and I still only had that one robot. So I just doubled the wheels, made it darker, stretched another set of wheels to look like cannons. And now I had a second robot 🤣 In hindsight, maybe using AI generated robots would have been better lol

Nothing less than maximum score for you! Amazing sounds, intro, gameplay, very very polished!

Even the main menu item appear in tact of the music – brilliant!

Incredible intro! BWOOAM! I was really happy to be able to correctly guess what the last line was going to be. :D

What's there is good! Starting out is difficult with low funds, maybe I was bad with my placements and didn't generate enough money or I put too much value on Drawing Hands. Toward the end my only issue was being able to place paintings fast enough with all the money which was rolling in. I appreciated that the paintings targeted the robots furthest along the path, making last minute placements more viable for taking out an enemy getting too close.

Really loved the Mona Lisa!  Would have liked some keyboard shortcuts for the 3 paintings.  Felt like I couldn't place them fast enough at the end.  Well done :)

Nice! This was a LOT of fun, and I really enjoyed playing another AI-themed game. The battling-with-art idea was really inspiring. I was not expecting a TD game after that intro, but then I was like "Awesome!" and felt so powerful whipping up paintings from that single canvas to take the fight to the AIs. Well done!

Very dramatic intro, i really liked this game. I can see this being something i will go back and play a good bit great job.

Loved the intro sequence & it all felt super cohesive :) on several playthroughs it quickly became a little overwhelming and not really sure if there would have been a tactic to keep going for longer. Could also be interesting to add waves to be able to better document progress. This was great though, thank you for creating it!

Opening is brilliant, gameplay is really fun! Would love to see more variety of enemies and paintings if you kept developing.

What a fun concept. I've never loved The Mona Lisa more :)

Great Work!

Haha! The intro gave me a good laugh 😂! The gameplay is really fun and I particularly like the animations from the artwork - Mona Lisa is brilliant!

Nice job with this. Looks nice, feels nice, just enough of a story to add something. Art pieces being towers is a fun twist. I would've liked to have had a better idea of what each one did, had to die the first try figuring it out.  Not having a description can work, but it should feel pretty intuitive if you do which is hard with art pieces. The end was so fast I made money faster than I could spend it but that's kind of fun so fair enough.

Nice game that got my perfect scores!

It'd be nice to be able to build towers quickly without zooming in and out that much, but I get why it's like this.

The overall premise is great. This raised the concerns of AI rather well. Well we might need to do something more drastic if the world is really moving that way though.

Great game and unique take on the theme, well done!

Awesome!
