Awesome game!
How is it so well balanced? I never had the feeling that it's too hard or too easy. Good job.
Unfortunately the HTML game froze during wave 20 after getting noticeably slower already. But until then i already had lots of fun!

Game Description
Build towers and use the waste heat generated by your computing resource to power your defenses! Web build at: https://jm8.github.io/godotgamejam76/
How does your game tie into the theme?
The game fits the freeze theme because it is about temperature management and freezing is a major danger.

This was a lot of fun. I had to stop around wave 22 just to save time to review other games. Started to get choppy as well but still playable.
It took me a while to understand the whole pipes thing. Losing the first time quickly. I still don't quite understand what the pipes were doing other than I needed them. Also towards the end I realized the camera could be zoomed out to reveal the map lol. I thought the game was just what you can initially see. I guess the idea was to build towers all over? I ended up just having a dozen or so near the center and kept upgrading and it worked.
Over all tons of fun. Addicting watching that number tick up and up. Great game name as well.
I have always wanted to make a tower defense and struggled with mechanics. This has inspired me to give it another try. Thanks for the great entry!
I got quantum computing but then I had to stop because the game froze. :(
I must ask though, how does the thermodynamics simulation work? I connected all my towers in a massive pipe network, but no matter how many towers I added, I never once was even close to not having enough waste heat to run any one of them. Was it just because I had a lot of waste heat?
I have played this game for almost an hour. Great job with this submission, in such a short amount of time. It's actually really enjoyable, thanks to a logical and intuitive building system, and the quirky cute artwork. At about 350kW, everything started to slow down significantly because so much happened at once (which looks and feels awesome btw.)
Thought it was pretty interesting for sure. Took me a sec to notice the text on the bottom of the screen telling me about the pipes lol. I felt like there was just a bit too much going on which is maybe what you were going for in the first place.
Overall cool concept for sure, keep it up :)
Fun game! I did find myself confused at times about how the currency with classical and quantum work, but I think all around it was fun, and once you really get things going and can idle it's fun to come back to it and see how much easier things get with all the upgrades.
The third tower type seems to not have any graphical effects?, enemies just die around it.
Surprisingly fun for surprisingly long. There are minor problems with late game balance and frame rate but for a game jam submission this is great entry.
