This is the first time i've played a TD where creating the path was the main goal!
It's a great twist on the genre, I've played traditional ones where you build towers and a few ones where you spawn enemies but never one where you are the path creator good job!
neat!
This game went really out of the box.It's so fun, interesting and polished it became one of my favourites, incredible job for a 48 hours jam, congrats!
This is a really interesting double-twist on tower defence, by building the path the player still controls the "enemies" like a lot of other reverse tower games did, but keeping the objective the same as a regular tower defence makes this a really interesting little experiment.
we saw a lot of TD: play as the attacker. Its the first time i play as the path! Cool idea and great execution:)
The game is fun, and i can feel the huge potential of the game mechanic. Keep polishing and try more ways to bring more opportunities for players to operate, such as road terrians?(water: slow down the enermy & volcano: burn enermy etc.)
I like this very much! Please make a full release version!
The art was a bit blurry, but really good, wish there was a rewind button because i found myself getting stuck, and had to restart the whole level, but it was a really fun game when I didnt screw it up
Good overall but it would be great to have a similar goal to other tower defence games. I found that I was playing as the path and the minions were just there to die.
this is such a creative take on the genre, great job!! had a lot of fun playing it
A spin on tower defense that turns it into a neat little puzzle maze. I like it. Had lots of neat little features. Thank you for having the option to speed up time. Good work.
Very fun, once I got past the title screen :P Loved having to manage switching between the 2 paths! Would love something that told me how much one tile cost; I just saw that it costs "gold" but had to figure out myself that it cost 10 gold per tile. I would also have liked something that told me what all the items do (i.e. the potion and the bomb, and how much gold I got per gold pile). Definitely see the potential for this to be developed more!
woah, when it got to level three and you had 2 paths, this thing got serious! great game!
I had a great time! The game is quite fun and creative, it just lacks a bit of polish. However, I spent the first 5 minutes trying all the keys, thinking the game wasn't working, before realizing it was the title screen ^^' . The tiles can be confusing at times, as it's not always clear where the path can go and where it can't. Otherwise, there's great potential!
Very cool idea, I like the concept and it is an impressive amount of work for a solo developer. Great job :)
It was kind of fun. Multiple road to control - great idea!
I didn't get that I first needed to click on the level 1, and that I was just looking at a sort of video, not the actual game, getting frustrated at the lack of interactivity.
But once I got over that hurdle I the game I got to play was cute. Not the first thought that comes to mind on reversing roles in a tower defense, which makes this very unique, but also limited in its depth. All in all a great GameJam game.
Damn, surprisingly probably my favorite idea on this jam so far, introducing multiple paths, both literally juggling 2 paths and also considering different paths you could take, added to decision making enjoyment. very nice
Very nice game especially from the moment when there are multiple roads to control
Totally love it! It took me some time to figure how to play this but after that I love it..
