A very good tower defense game. Nice use of randomness in the game. Cool art as well. Keep it up!

Submitted

This game is very cool! i love the visuals, keep working on this, it would be amazing! rated! please check out my game too :D

Submitted

Cool idea, could possibly be evolved into some supply system.

The graphics are nice, however they make it a bit hard to read what's going on at one glance.

Submitted

Nice twist on tower defense. I suck on those games though :D Really cool presentation btw!

Submitted

Fun tower defense! Seems like a lot of time was taken to balance the game. Graphics were good and became intuitive. Sound effects were cohesive and a nice touch. Well done!

Submitted

Good tower defense with a little twist to fit the theme. Only thing I would criticize is that the drag and drop for the tower is not really clear, took me a while to figure it out.  Other than this, it's a good tower defense.

The aesthetic is good, music and sfx are well done and integrated. Didn't encounter any bug. So overall good job !

Submitted

Very good looking, and I enjoyed the music ( although it stopped playing pretty early in the game). However, it felt confusing. Would be great to see some in-game tutorial/ tooltips.

Submitted

wave 30 , the amount of detail tho , excellent job !

very cool entry, reminds me of a lot of tower defense games tho.

Submitted

Great entry! Survived only 8 waves. :( If you add some tooltips about what is going on, I think you have a potential for a great game!

Submitted

it was fun even without draging, but dragging  them around was more fun. 

Submitted

This is really nice. My only problem is that the game itself does not tell you what the different towers do and since I didn't read the itch page, I got confused every now and then as to why they weren't shooting.

Submitted

Polished game and I love tower defence games. Liked the idea of moving towers, makes it less static.

Some thoughts(I really think you should do a post jam version!)

- A little bit on the easy side, I did not really have to move the towers even if they were turned off
- A little too much going on for a first level

- No indication on dragging

Good job! 

Submitted

Love the style and the idea, very polished!

Submitted

This game makes me go YES! Nice game! Love the art!

Submitted

Neat Idea. I feel like its a little too easy, because if you just keep calling in the next wave it lets you bypass the outage and gives you a new tower. Got to level 85 before it lagged my browser though haha.

Submitted

extremely funny I do not know what could be done better you only need more level’s and a tutorial. but overall it’s a good idea and good game play it beats my tower defense game and i like the art too

Submitted

Very polished, very cool, and a lot of ideas implemented well. I think the user could be given more information, like where the next power outage might be or where enemies will come from. I don't know if it's a glitch or not, but I had a weird wave with invisible enemies? 

Submitted

The level of polish is impressive. I'm not a big fan of the blackout mechanic, because I can't really prepare for it. I'd like it more if it were easier to reposition my towers.

I like how chaotic your game is. It's so satisfying to watch enemies get obliterated as they go through choke points!
