  • Very good game! Music loop was a little ear grating after a while, but otherwise good. Bosses feel like they go against the "one big dude" idea, but that can be tweaked. Overall very solid game, can't wait to see more :D

Fun one! I enjoyed merging/progressing the army up to stronger levels and fending off the goblin hordes. I got through two bosses, but then the third powerup seems like it wiped my army? Not sure what it was supposed to do.

I enjoyed this, great work!

the third powerup does damage to everything on the field, including your army.

Neat idea, simple but effective, I also like the take on the theme to be "less in numbers but more in strength", music is a banger, with some polishing like adding some sound effects, some VFX "juice", some balancing and a couple more mechanics it can become really fun, I think you should expand on the idea. Good job!

Of all the games I've played so far this one strikes me as the one most likely to make a commercial success.  This could be the vampire survivors for the rts world.   Awesome.  Just really really awesome.

Really addictive ! The mechanic is working really well with a bit of balancing this could become a really cool game ! Congratulations !

Enjoyed the game! Glad to read that you work on more updates! Good luck! The jumping boss got me as well, it’s extra hard. Cute graphics and fitting music. Thanks for the game!

This is a cool concept! I for sure see a very interesting path of development that this could take. Impressive merging feature and enemy spawning. Great job :)

I got to the boss that jumps up, but he beat me. 

I like the game, it's simple, but very enjoyable!

Quite engaging. I didn't really have the APS to win, but the fact that there was even an interesting difficulty curve was a cut above many entries.

More SFX might have been better than just the music loop, for responsiveness sake, and maybe a health indicator above player units might have been useful, but this was very fun.

This was fun! I liked combining the units together to see what was next, and also fighting the bosses. The music was fun too :)

Good game! 
I like the difficult progression here. It's very polished. 

I really like it!

Super fun concept! Fits the theme really well. That boss is tough 😅

Awww I lost at the final boss, frogthulu :(

Nice game!

That was good, very simple but very efficient I played for some times, very addictive. Could make a good mobile game probably. Well done for your first game completed mate
