How does your game fit the theme?
There is some strategy involved in first scaling your turret arsenal and then scaling it back down with equal power but less space

The merge mechanic is really cool and I like that, however the start is a bit too hard, took me a few attempts. Love the simple visuals! :D
Took me a few tries to get off the ground but once I did it just snowballed from there. Fun game! I was able to successfully tank the framerate by spawning so many enemies/bullets which is always a good sign when "scale" is the theme.
Finished with a score of 214500, while I spawned 10 waves at the same times ! Was a fun experience trying to figure out the cost of the upgrade / the cost of the merge and which is the most worth at a time ! Lot of potential, maybe in the upgraded version if you merge the same tower it grants a buff or a boost to those towers ?
As a fellow Tower Defense game jamer I found your game really enjoyable !
Good work keep it up !
With some polish, balancing and improvements post-gamejam this could turn out to be a very good TD game. Keep it up! Rated!
I am a bit confused. The enemies felt unbalanced. Maybe I missed something, but the gold I would get is negligable, and enemies had too much health. I mean its a tower defense game, so still pretty enjoyable.
Nice little tower defense game. I really like it! It would be nice to see the cost of the actions, which could be useful, especially for the first few rounds. But otherwise I had a lot of fun! Well done :)
Thanks Florian, I have improved this game so much already, too bad I can't put the improved version to the jam =). Thanks for playing it
Got to 51 levels, after a while started to get super easy and very laggy with too many enemies. I started sending 10 waves at the time, so there were a lot of them :) Very fun nonetheless
Thanks wiechiu, the balance after 20 waves is not very hard in this version, I have tried to balance it quite a bit. Maybe I'll add the new version here when I can =)
Alright, this is my favorite game of the jam so far haha. I'm a sucker for TDs and you delivered perfectly. The gameplay is very clean, scaling feels natural and tower types each feel like they fit their niche. I could play this a lot more, but I really need to sleep since I've been up for over 25 hours. I love the text effects, love the enemies and tower models. Only thing I wish is a hover-over of the cost to do the action, but honestly it stops mattering at a certain point. Very solid submission
Thanks ollie_d, I have actually continued working on this as it was quite a fun idea. I have balanced the spawning of the enemies, health, gold income, scoring and I also limited the player so that they can only have 8 platforms up at a time. Instantly made it more like a game where you have to puzzle around at the beginning so you can get the most of your setup.
I also made it possible to sell entire platforms for half the price. And I added a big laser turret.
very nice -- I'll follow you to hopefully catch an updated post :)
Pretty fun tower defence but either I didn't really get the scaling part of it or it has not had enough time to be crystalized?
Either way, clean visuals and addicting sound design!
Thanks demborg f or the comment, kinda ran out of time to balance the game properly, but it was indeed quite fun.
