This game was pretty awesome! I really enjoyed playing this, the movement was really smooth and the sound was really great! All in all, has some really solid potential (More level/backgrounds, germs etc)!

It's an interesting take on tower defence. I like it.

I had a hard time getting my base going though and I kept finding mutators that I never figured out how to use. For example, I could unlock zappers but I didn't know how to pay for them. I could upgrade fireballs but I didn't know how to shoot them. Maybe I was just unlucky.

Thank you!!

you can play the intended way actually making generators and building a defense but this is very hard you dont pay attention for 0.5 seconds and the enemies are at your generators and you cant do anything. or just run in circles way easier but not much fun

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! I definitely noticed the walking in circles and tried to counteract that with them gaining speed. Also, adding some way to directly attack enemies is a fantastic idea :D

Very fun little game! I found it hard to understand in the beginning but quite fun when figured it out, loved the music, maybe it felt a little unbalanced sometimes, like it took some time to start gaining ATP fast, but i liked it.

I got deleted when Wave 54 spawned lol

Good take on the theme! I liked the tower variety and that you gradually get introduced to them overtime. Placing towers seemed abit buggy though, as sometimes i wasn't able to place any despite having enought atp

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!! Honestly, I don’t know why the building system bugs later on in the game haha, didnt have enough time to figure it out before the jam :D

I had some difficulties in knowing what was going on and after realizing I could just go in circles, the game got really easy. The power-ups where a lot of fun to combine and I can definitely see how it could get updated and expanded on in the future. Really fun game nevertheless!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! I will definitely try to make the tutorial more visible :)

Really fun,  the simple art fits the theme, but the it is too easy because the enemies are so slow all you need to do is go in circles. One way to fix this is make enemies faster as the game goes on. It also needs a tutorial because I did not notice the text in the right corner  until after 5 minutes in of running in circles. (And maybe buff the towers they felt weak) Over though AMAZING game and it would be a good one to expand on, already better then some AAA games! (cough.. cough.. overwatch)

Developer

thank you for the feedback! The enemies do actually gain speed later. Also, definitely going to make the tutorial text more visible haha
