Extra Notes
Life happened and ran out of time in balancing the game, so there's very little polish :)

Nice job! Good use of the spreading theme by building our your appendages. Simple and fun!
Nice gameplay, definitely has the wave survival feel and a good challenge. Would be cool to see the concept expand further. Only thing that didn't feel great was if you lost a node, that could easily turn into a cascade of losing things you cant afford to replace.
Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, I think the game could do with more balancing or mechanics to help with cascades - either positive or negative.
This is a great mechanic. I'm not sure what the 3rd power up does, though!
Thanks! The third structure/thing allows you to build more of the basic buildings -- it's meant to allow growth :)
Ah excellent. I used it correctly.
Love the game! Great work
