Cool game!! Fun take on tower defense with the theme, and the overall visual and audio style matched the wackiness of the concept well. Took a few tries to get going but really enjoyed the chaos once I did. Nice one!

Easy game, if you just put vertical adults at the beginning the kids get waters instantly, fun game!

Really unique and cool tower defence, the art is very good too. Excluding sometimes loud audio, it's a really great game!

The music and sfx got to be kind crazy lol. But it was a fun an unique style of tower defense I havent played before. Good stuff! Interestingly enough I won my first playthrough and then failed miserably on my 2nd lol.

Fun tower defense style game! But I felt it was a little too easy at times (I was just spamming the level one turret at the entrance) .

Did you try the web or the executable version ? We're working with Godot and we're not very experimented so exporting to the web was a bit difficult and did not go 100% well. The executable version should be difficult enough if you mind trying again. Nevertheless, thanks for taking the time of testing and reviewing it ! :D

Thanks for the reply! I played the web version but I'll make sure to take a look at the executable version!

YOU DO WHAT WITH KIDS?! Ah water the kids… okay okay. Got me worried yo!

Love the style (having to drag and drop adults from water to the beach, really ahahah) Audio was a bit loud! But the game was fun <3

PS: I first tried in my browser, thanks for allowing me to stress test Firefox. Spam clicked the first unit until it stopped answering. No issue on PC version!

Cute simple game, although the name worried me before playing 😂, managed to get all the way through without much struggle though. Laser boys are a little strong, and broke the visuals. The path the kids took flickered and the audio was a little overpowering. Loved that you could move the towers as and how you please though

Thanks for the review, I missed it at first 😅. Effectively the browser version was a bit broken, thanks for being among the first to to point it out to us. It would mean the world to us if you could try the downloadable version instead, it was the first one we did and I think that it was a bad idea trying to also make a browser one.

Fun game to play, although I didn't really get how to play at first, so a tutorial or a bit of text explaining would have helped a lot. This can be tough to implement, so I don't blame you.

I don't know if it was intentional, but for me what really works is that the fun beach music fades out after a while and all you hear is the death and destruction you have caused in the form of the turret sounds. It sort of brings it into a different perspective that's really cool.

Thanks for your review! We listened to you and we decided to add some short advices for the player as well as showing the path the kids will take. In addition, it should no longer have any bug. Have a great day!
