Cool concept, look and feel. It's a vague thought, but I think I wanted more "oomph" from connecting. Maybe even just a repair animation?

Really fun! Looking forward to seeing this more polished!

(Bit of a bug tho currently when you place turrets too close too the rocks, they float in the sky and become useless)

I really really liked this one. The lowpoly 3d art style was really nice, the soundtrack was fire and the gameplay was fun ( maybe a little balancing ) . Well done!

The idea itself is great, but the balance did not quite work for me (initial turrets were always destroyed too fast)

Loved the sound effects and music!

Pretty fun!
I loved the animation of the player walking and how it adjusts to the towers you have.

Really pretty title screen. Great job on that. The enemies just stopped spawning for me after a while which is a bit of a shame, would have loved to get to a crazy point of having millions of turrets and enemies going at the same time. Great job on the music and sound design too. Really well done!

The title screen was animated by Brandon and  designed by Katherine. They did great work!

Unfortunately the wave system breaks when enemies fall through the map :'( 
We ran out of time to fix it.

I made the SFX myself! But also game design, and the enemy model.

oh I understand the time constraints being a difficulty. But hey what you got was very impressive. Particularly for 3d in a 48hr jam.

Great job! The menu's and itch page have a lot of polish, especially that logo, and big points for actually including a how to play section for your game, I've seen a lot of entries that left me completely in the dark, so I appreciate your tutorial.

Brandon did that controls screen and it turned out suuuuper slick. Really nice to have for people.
