Cool little game! I had a bit of trouble getting into it as there was a steep learning curve and only a bit of text explaining it all before playing. I learned through playing the game though! I still don't quite know how everything works, but I had enough knowledge to get halfway to the pond. Then all of a sudden a very hard wave hit and I died! I kinda wish I knew how much damage each turret did, or what upgrade would have been worth it. Right now I just kind of clicked on things and hoped for the best, but I didn't quite know what a good strategy would be. I can't really comment on the balancing as maybe it's quite balanced if you know what you're doing. I loved the art and subtle sounds as well! The little animations, like when you're eaten, are very well done! Good job on finishing a game and thanks for participating in the jam!

My sister had the idea of adding a short text synopsis for each pumpkin explaining what they did, possible including a short stats overview, but at that point there wasn't enough time. The other idea was to make it so you have increasingly more time to prepare for the waves so that you can plan against the tougher ones. I appreciate all the feedback!
