Lovely tower defence experience! A great addition would have been the ability to replace your existing towers/walls imo, so you can expand your defenses without having to add things outside your walls then cover them. Made it to level 25 before succumbing to the human hordes :)
Very fun game! I could really see this game becoming a fully-fledged game with a little bit of polish. I really enjoyed it (maybe that’s because I’m a fan of tower defense? haha). I was a little confused about the card selection because tit seemed like sometimes it wasn’t working, but other times it seemed to work perfectly.
We are glad you enjoyed it. Yes, to confess, the card selection is very poorly explained due to time constraints. Your cards are in a deck, and by selecting a card you add it to your deck. Every turn your deck is shuffled and you draw 5 cards. So, sometimes the newly selected card you choose might not appear. This is why you can skip cards to not flood your deck with bad cards.
Reasons this game is so good:
really nice graphics, all towers have attack animations, and the bullets are neither too small nor big. Also, the graphics fit perfect with each other and the color palette stays the same.
It's is very satisfying to play, I really liked everything.
All towers are unique and necessary.
The design leads to very nice looking "cities?" around the "eye"
It is impressively balanced, I thought at first, that I would be playing forever, but after reaching level 20 it was really fun to see my buildings just get fewer and fewer.
Things that could be better:
I didn't understand the "Select/Skip" mechanic of the game, was it asking to add these 3 cards on my deck, did I have to choose one of them? I still don't understand.
Well done!
Thank you, it is great to see that someone thoroughly enjoyed our game. One regret is not working on the selection system better. It is poorly explained in-game, but essentially your cards are all in a deck. You can select new cards every 2 rounds to add to your deck. Every turn your deck is shuffled and 5 cards are drawn. By selecting a card you add it to the deck but it is not guaranteed to be drawn in the next turn. If we could improve this system, we probably would have a UI element to show you all your cards in your deck.
This was super fun!! The freeze towers felt like they where worth the investment and the overall gameplay loop felt very polished, I did feel like it got a bit too easy after stacking mana towers since you could spam a lot of buildings.
This has a very fun gameplay loop, it got me pretty hooked. With more maps, enemy and tower types I would be here for ages lol.
Very impressive to have a game like this in such a short time! With some additional time, I feel like this could be expanded into a very desirable game.
