Great Game ! A combo system where you would have to click on certain keys to inflict critical hits would had a bit more difficulty for pro players !

Dear god... Easily the most fun I've had this jam, franticly smashing my keyboard while yelling at my mom that I don't want to do any chores, 10/10 *chef's kiss*

Loved the idea but you shouldn't allow player to hold keys. It made the game a bit too easy.

Reply
LoomingGoblinDeveloper2 years ago(+1)

you're right. Problem is Godot isn't amazing with input getting, and I wanted to get the input to then display in the bar. This could only be done in a way that meant that the player could hold down the keys. Maybe if I had more time I would've found a way around this, but unfortunately not. Thanks for the review!

Bahahahaaa this is great :D

once you realize you can just go like crazy with the keyboard and clicking with the other hand it gets doable :D

Good balance between difficulty and fun

Thank you so much! Alot of people have enjoyed mashing the keyboard lol! Thanks for the review, it's really appreciated!

I think I've got a trauma hearing "the dish wash needs doing", Awesome game really creative take on the theme, and I don't know if this count as cheating but I just hold down one key for a long time to generate the cash just like "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa......."

Really enjoy the game, Great entry!

I actually got my family to record the voicelines lmao, just to make it the more accurate XD

Thanks for the review, I really appreciate it!

This was really fun. It's creative and fits the theme well. It's also unique, I've never played a keyboard-mashing-tower-defense against your own family lol. The voice acting was the icing on the cake. Wowie!

lmfaoo the concept here is funny -great way to use the theme too -creative! xD  really nice work on the gui and the tutorial.  Played really well and on that note fake typing on the computer was oddly fun and a unique way to generate income for a tower defense -brilliant!! :D

The mom fight is insane and shows me that I need to work on my typing skills. This is a very creative concept. I do think that there need to be moments of rest for the player. Instead of a boss rush, maybe there can be a few waves of smaller enemies that allow the player to build up their bot army in between the big bosses. Also, I don't really like that the bots de-spawn; let the bots be destroyed! (or at least put a progress bar beneath them so I can prepare.) Well done :]

Good point-I probably should've added some 'rest' periods in between. And now that I think about it, there wasn't really a proper reason to destroy all bots in between rounds. Thanks for playing and leaving a review though- this gives me a decent amount to think about :]
