  • Really cool concept, would love to see it get expanded on. As it is, the game is can just be won by completely block the enemies' path and the rounds are confusing as they just seem to go on one after the other without pause.

I love me a good TD game! Great work for your first game jam and I like the premise of the map spreading as the rounds go by.

However, I do wish that the map started in fullscreen and as it grew slowly zoomed out. The small square in the top left corner of the screen is a little hard to navigate.

What do each of the towers do? It was tough to understand which towers did what and how to strategize against enemies.

Did you have a specific reason for starting with $125? Nothing in the game was worth that $5 and the number of towers I could place couldn't reliably defeat enemies. So either more cash, weaker enemies, or more powerful towers would have been helpful.

Overall, I think you have a very solid start and with a little polishing could be a super fun TD!

Pretty solid TD game. My only suggestion is, that the enemy route should not be blockable :) Also I really missed the sell tower option - so I can redesign the defense if I want to. It was fun to play it, good job!

Thank you so much for the feedback!  I definitely need to get a system in place to prevent you from blocking the end point, a selling option should be pretty easy to get in there now that there's not a time limit.
