Absolutely loved this one!

The pixel art looks lovely and overall the game was well polished, I didn't run into any major glitches during my playtime.

I definitely think if you all planned to expand and develop this game further with more levels, minions, enemies, and story you could create a really fun and unique product!

I had a blast with this one.  You three did an incredible job!  NuTrynity - You had to learn how to link scripts to buttons among other things...  when I got started, I didn't even know how to make a button, let alone have it do something.  You keep on doing what you're doing!  We all start somewhere, and you are never a burden!
I really enjoyed the whole 'spawn 'n place your minions' idea.  Absolutely fantastic game jam entry!  I wish all three of you the best of luck! :D

Thank you for enjoying our game!
And again thank you for the compliments :3
Very much appreciated.

Really nice art and concept. Gameplay worked well and it was pretty satisfying to build an army of slimes to bulldoze everything before me.

Cool Idea. I agree with Grumpy that the song is....a lot haha.

But I love the visuals, Nice level design. Most of my suggestions would be about tweaking the difficulty in various ways.

From an approachability perspective though, I have two suggestions, a little description of what each minion type is good/bad at might help. I just used goblins mostly. They seemed effective haha.

And some kind of visual marker for 'Max Gold' would be useful. but I LOVED the mechanic of the gold piling up at the corners of the screen. Very nice touch..

I really enjoyed it. Thanks!

Hey, thanks for the feedback!

Most of your suggestions were planned but time constraints stopped us from implementing them :(

Game balance was our most undeveloped field by far. It would be nice if our levels actually gave players a challenge but better too easy than too hard I guess.

ALMOST all the stars.

The song was, shall we say, relentless.

But I had fun playing the game.

A true monster doesn't put their OWN life a risk.

Nay nay! Summoning minions is a much more scalable solution!

Nicely done.

Haha yea, we planned to increase the length of the song to mellow it out but ran out of time :(. Thanks for playing!
