Very charming concept, and loved the artwork, especially on the menu!
The fact that you have to herd Pinch towards health potions while also swatting away monsters that he will walk into is surprisingly challenging, and adds depth to the gameplay.

One Last SpinThis game is simple, but it explores the theme in a less obvious way in my opinion. A straightforward interpretation would mean playing as enemies, but here we play as a third entity that is neither the hero nor enemies.
I do feel like the theme is quite limiting this time, seeing many games do the same thing like reversed tower defense, but oh well. You did well on that front nonetheless.
As for the gameplay itself, it’s hard to play with a bad touchpad (i.e. without a mouse), so I had to grab my mouse to do play it properly. :) I like the low-health mechanic, but most of the time I just bumped the goblin with my healthbar (sometimes I did that on accident).
Cheers.

Non-Player Player CharacterWhat a quirky idea! Really enjoyed the gameplay loop of trying to protect the goblin while also trying to guide him toward health potions.
