Interesting idea for a tower defence. Controls are a bit weird though and the game would be better with better controls.

Developer

Thanks! It's the jump mechanic, I should have made it so you can't move the player in the air according to other people's feedback. Thank you for playing!

Very cool and addictive tower defense game! I like that you plant the mines where you go, quite an original idea. I found a problem though, with each explosion the camera moves to the left a little, until you can’t see most of the level at all!

Developer(+1)

There is some bug in the framerate that is messing up the camera shake. I'll have to look into it. Thanks for playing!

The soundtrack is a banger. I like the minimalistic artstyle but i can't really see the use of the limitation here. It would be cool when the player can be damaged by the bombs to. And a lifebar for  the player could help a lot.

But overall a pretty polished nice game, with an amazing soundtrack.

Yeah that was the goal, but particle physics are not my friend >xD

I liked the art and sounds, but was unsure what to do ,, i then realised it was kind of like a tower defence. (unless im wrong) but was unsure how those mines came out of me? and then i went out of bounds and couldnt return? after i restarted the level, it lagged and wouldnt work also.

Developer

Sorry that happened! It was meant to be a tower defense, but I grossly underestimated the work for a tower defense game (even though I have made them before!) Thanks for playing anyways :)

Music is enjoyable. The graphics and visuals are bright and vibrant, though I don't really get how the limitation was implemented. The win/loss condition is not also explained properly. 

In regards to controls, I feel that the character movement does not really click me. Also, I rarely used the jump button as I really don't get the idea of using it in the first place

Developer

I ran out of time to properly implement my jump as the core mechanic! I also wanted the bombs to stun the player, but the time restriction was insane because this is for Ludum Dare as well so I made it in 48 hours instead of 72. I tried my best to describe the game mechanics on the web page instead of in the game. Thanks for playing!

Cool music. Nice and colorful, with bright easily recognizable objects. I can see the potential for some rocking action here.

Unfortunately, there are a few issues that get in the way of this being as fun as it could be. Here are some suggestions:

1. The player should be confined to the camera's field of vision. I was going out of bounds, and then I couldn't return, because I couldn't see which direction I was facing.

2.  The R button should work at all times, not just after a Game Over.

3. The win and lose conditions should be communicated a bit more clearly.

Fun game, i really like the art and the mechanics, the particles make everything better, i was confused because i didnt understood where was the minion face but then i saw xD, really fun and good game
