I couldn't play it because of a video card update error screen :( looks like a lovely game though. I like the pixel art from the screenshots!
Looks amazing and sounds great! I can see this expanded into a full game I'd play. :)
Very well done, especially presentation! I did lose on first playtrough, but saving more equipment on second one helped a lot and I could repay my debt. The only problem I've had is that heroes can kill goblins even when they are already in death animation, which happened quite often because I didn't get much equipment with a health bonus.
Nice art and nice gameplay Idea. The pixel art looks very good and the colour palette used too. good job ! :)
Really well done! Great job on the graphics and the interpretation of the theme. A bit easy but it didn't detract from the fun, and I could honestly see this being a full-fledged release with a little bit more work put into it. Great job, you guys should be proud of yourselves!
Neatly put together. It was a bit on the easy side as it progressed, but it was pleasant to see the small goblins work together. Good presentation, looks like a finished product!
I kept the game going by getting more gold mines instead of reaching 10k, just to extend it a bit. Had the whole dungeon with goldmines in the end. Was fun!
Masterpiece of a Game! It was really fun to discover the optimal strategy to defeat the heroes. Everything about this experience felt thought out, balanced and polished to the point when I almost forgot this was a submission. It is just a joy to play that is all I have to say. Extremely Well Done, Fantastic Job!
Really great art and music! A ton of fun as well, although it is quite easy.
Really cool spritework. A little bit too easy to just outscale the heroes. Had fun playing
One of my favourites so far, feels great to manage buildings and troops of goblins, very fun game loop, congrats!
Great game!
Maybe a bit easy and too long.
This game is excellent anyway !
Bravo !
Great game, well balanced ! Having to choose between ressources and troops keep me hooked, and it's really satisfying to see your final dungeon maxed out. Didn't expect to see an end screen, nice surprise ;)
Well done! Probably the best game i've played on this jam so far.
Beautiful game I loved it so much!!I Built just goldmines all over the place and made HUGE income. Music is fantastic and the Gameplay is straight forward. If i could give an advice put a button to spawn the next wave instantly and make a destroy building in teraction to delete buildings for money. For a balancing point of view the game needs a bit of a touch. Do not give the player all goblins at instant make them work for them (a lvl up choice or something to unlock the next golbin).Also the basic goblin's stats are too op at the end i basily just had the normal ones and oneshoted all the enemies --> that means that the player do not buy any other units. To spice it up a bit I would put bosses in that fears the normal goblins but not the ranged or the hobogoblins. This Game is beautifully done and I would love to see it in the future a full release! <3
beautiful pixel art, quack
The art is fantastic, the game idea is fantastic, but the game is a bit to easy, while it is really satisfying to win and gain more points and upgrade your army, it does get easy after you place a bunch of those mines/gold farm thingies, but goodjob, great game!
The graphics are just WOW. So much hard work. Love the gameplay too!
Beautiful!
Awesome game, looks great and has some strategy to it.
Loved the art style! I stopped the game once I had buildings everywhere as I didn't see any sign of an end coming my way.
