We created a tower defense game where you don't have control of your own towers. Meaning they'll attack everything in sight... even YOU! Turning a classic game genre into a bullet hell.

Hey man, I think you submitted this game in my stream chat and then disappeared so the VOD of me playing it is saved here if you're interested: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/679442122
Amazing idea to transform a simple tower defense game into a bullet hell
Both the concept and execution are top notch and it's a subtle change that makes everything different
I would have never expected a tower defense game to be this fun, but being a huge fan of the Touhou series I can only love this
Also the pixel art is super good and everything looks intuitive and clear at the first glance
One of my favorites so far !
Last thing expected is that my own towers would want to attack me too. Great concept and fantastic job! Rated already =)
Wow! I love the art style and how fun this game is. This take on the theme really creates an interesting spin on tower defense. I also hope there was a little Ratchet and Clank influence with the bolts. This is a really good submission you should be proud!!! :)
I love tower defense game and the mix of genres and this is, in my opinion, an extremely well done mix of Tower Defense and Bullet Hell that just makes sense and works very well.
The pixel art is perfect and so is the audio, it is very polished and with a lot of different towers to experiment with different situations. I would still have liked the ability to place towers down directly with the cursor, but it is a very enjoyable experience and one of my favorites in this Jam. Amazing Work!
Really clever game :)! Loved the how placing towers was both helpful and dangerous. Really nice art too (especially love the cute trees).
Our artist is awesome! He made a palette from the start. Thank you for the review and kind words, I love all of your channels!
Very awesome idea and very well executed. Simple but clever. you had to think high risk high rewards, because the enemy drop disappears after a few seconds, so either you play it safe and you get only the last drops, or you enter a bullet hell to get as much as possible, hopefully using the enemies as shields from your own turrets.
Well done all.
Really unfortunate that the lock-on turret is best turret. UNFORTUNATE FOR ALL THE OTHER LAME-ASS TURRETS OUT THERE.

The team talks about this post a fair amount, thank you.
Damn, that's cool! Making your own tower be able to attack you... Maybe it's simple, but it turns the gameplay upside down, very clever idea. Two things, that gets me to rate it's "fun" 5 out of 5: first you able to stop your enemies by blocking them - it's hilarious, but it works! And the second, is it just me or you really added sample from "wait a minute who are you" meme video to main music theme?
Really amazing graphics and sound design. I also love the idea that your towers damage you, great work!
Very cool concept for a tower defense! Good job!
This was a nice combination of genres. Things definitely do get quite out of control as well XD. I wish there were more health pickups though. It's just that the nature of the game entails that you will get shot maybe 4 or 5 times before you finally reach a heart. So more heart pickups would be nice. Still, this is a very good game. Great job to everyone on your team :)
I'm terrible at this game, but I can see how polished it is!
Good job ^^
This game makes me go YES! Nice art!
Oh man I love a good tower defense, very polished, and more VERY fun, loved it!
Presentation in this game is really great! There's a lot of little nuances here that I appreciate such as the robots dropping loot which encourages you to not turtle and put yourself out there as well as the loot being slightly picked up on a range to allow for some leeway with positioning since it can get quite hectic when you put out too many turrets.
Good game! really impressive for a game made in 48 hours
The various mechanics have a lot of satisfaction built in. Overall, this game's idea is quite original and stunning!
This game is amazing! It's very creative and that shines even brighter for a tower defense game which are usually pretty copy and paste. It's very satisfying to collect a giant amount of bolts while risking getting shot by your own towers just to do so. My only real complaint is that it was a bit annoying trying to figure out where you can and can't place things. Maybe a grid system would be nice. The music was also a little annoying. But otherwise, this was a fantastic to play! Give mine a try too :)
I really love the magnet feel on getting small pieces of loot! Your game looks and play awesome! Congrats on that. Looking forward to play more games from the team!
