This is so smooth, I love it. The puzzles can be kinda brute forced but I still liked figuring out the strategies for the unit ordering. Amazing music and sounds too.

I enjoyed it. A fun little puzzle game.
I'll admit that I gave up on the 5th level.

GMTK2023 - Medieval Tower OffenseNice submission! I loved the idea as it changes the tower defense into kind of a puzzle game.
Didn't manage to beat level 5 tho..

Don't BreakoutNice take on the reversed tower defense style. Great minds think alike ;)
The levels were not too easy. I liked it, good job!

The 100 Ears' WarSolid entry in aspects of overall readiness, but not enough strategy as for me - random picking approach worked better than with thinking)

Human GeneratorReally fun game. Last two levels required use of all the units, which was very satisfying to complete.

Game Jam SimulatorThis is my favorite game so far. Love the art and it's also really fun. Level 5 was too hard for me tho haha.

Tower OffenseUnfortunately the game doesn't load in my browser (I'm on a Mac so that's probably why) but I just wanted to say, using Google Slides as your graphics??? That's kinda genius good on you!

I used to be an AdventurerI LOVE IT! I wound most definitely play this game on my phone while on the bus and stuff. xD
Managed to beat all 5 levels and I love how you eventually think of different strategies to go up against the slow ( just use a 1 first and then the fast boi), or the AOE ( splitting tanks with the 1s so only 2 get hit at a time) Good luck in the challenge my friend :)
Id be very grateful if you rated our game as well <3

Little Man Behind the ScreenA lot of people had a similar take on the theme and did a reverse tower defense, but this one might be my favorite! I like how it's almost more of a puzzle game than just a tower defense. Crazy how you made almost all the art from Google Slides too.

DeconstructionGood game ! it's a bit difficult but i love the way you deal with a reverse defense tower!

Pete Stopper RE-FUELThis is definitely the best reverse tower defense that I have seen so far! I really love the minimalist style and everything felt great. The only complaint that I have is that the difficulty spike from level 3 to 4 is massive, but I was still able to get through the game and have an enjoyable time! Really great entry!

Reverse Pac-ManThank you for the lovely comment and your feedback! Level 4 was previously solvable by spamming the fastest packets, and I had some time to kill a couple of hours before submission and decided that wasn't gonna' cut it. I ended up fixing that solution, but the result is much more complicated. I'm glad you were able to complete the game though :)
