How does your game fit the theme?
The turrets are constantly out of control. Along with that, the player has to balance being out of control of the turrets to get upgrades and give turret repairs with being in control to actually shoot the turrets and defend the control panel.

Wow this game is great. The shooting feels really nice and the turrets feel powerful. Really liked the gameplay.

Great design, great art, great execution. I hope you get to top 100. Well done. *clap* *clap*

And If you had time, I'd be thankful if you play my submission :)

Yes it is but I wonder why does your profile pic exist ;)

(+1)

Because I took a pic of my beautiful face. Why do you not like it?

It's not a matter of likability.
I just wonder if that expression wasn't intentional, what events led you to this situation and why there's a photo of it.

The expression was 100% intentional and the picture was taken purely for my entertainment and as a gift to my mother as an early mother's day present. My mother did not like the photo but the image inspired me to convert to narcissism and I've been happy ever since.

I like that sometimes you don't have to fix a malfunctioning turret, you can just let it keep firing.

It's helpful when you have to fix the other one.

I really enjoyed the game, it's fun as hell.

There's a bug where I teleport positions though, sometimes when I hit a wall...

Thank you so much! Yeah i'm gonna get to fixing that haha!

It's a good idea that you have to move in a tower defense arena, so you can do something while waiting for the enemies, but I found a few small things while playing it.

The movement speed is relatively fast, and the turrets are close by, so I didn't need to spend a lot of time outside the control panel. Also, I didn't need to worry about the ammo, because it automatically fills up while I'm fixing the turrets.

I think both of these could be solved if the ammo was another item on the ground in random locations, so the player would have more to do while outside the control panel.

Also, I found a bug where I moved next to a wall and bugged into it. Instead of going away from the wall, I teleported to the other side of the room. This made me lose at round 13 :(

Overall, it was still a good game, and the game feel was excelent with the screen shake and the white sprites.

TYSM! I'll definitely address all of that, the collisions stuff especially I can def see how that could be frustrating. Sorry bout that! and thanks again!
