While I don't tend to like tower defense games, this one had a pretty unique spin which was nice. I play a lot of Arknights and could definitely see the similarities, as that's pretty much the only tower defense I play because of these unique mechanics.

I liked that a lot of effort was spent in building up the identities of these characters rather than leaving them as emotionless husks, but it may have gone a little too far and I found myself skipping a lot of the dialogue as I wanted to get to the action earlier. I think making the dialogue skippable would work it work for both types of players.

Nice artwork as well, although the map looked a little low res and the characters and buildings look like they have been scaled down to fit on the screen therefore the quality degraded around the edges. Try playing with vector art that scales to any size. Well done though, great work for only a month!

Thanks sooo much, I appreciate the feedback!

Artwork and initial concept are nice, but the pacing is a bit too slow to keep my attention as a player and the tutorial was a bit of a slog.

Developer

Thanks for feedback!

I was left hanging after the tutorial kind of. No more dialogue or story after that ;(

Developer

I can see that. I had to cut back the scope on the base part and it wasn't really finished by the time I finished tutorial, and didn't have time to add some parts into the tutorial explaining how the base scene worked.

Fun game, got to level 6.

It was a bit much to read before you actually got to an game play.

Developer

Great, glad you had fun. When you retreat to base, it will save your progress for money, parts, and machine and character levels, so when you retry a level, it should be easier, also if you make enough money, the new recruits can really help out. There are 2 levels, each with about 13 rounds each.
