The core mechanic of this was very unique and fits well with the theme. The graphics and sound were also extremely good. The game was fun to play, but it starts to become somewhat repetitive. The game is also somewhat hard, especially when your towers disappear and disrupt the pattern you were planning on the shot following. It's a shame you didn't get all the features you wanted in, I'm sure more levels would have added some variety to the gameplay.
Wow great music and sfx, the core idea is also top, it's a very impressive jam entry.
Too many good points, so I will concentrate on the bad ones :P I think there's no dynamic in hits, the hit animation is small and the fact that the ball have to go through monsters ( for gameplay reason ) ruins the impact effect. Maybe making the monter blink/shake/flash and pause + making the fireball stop & disappear during this period would help. I dont like The cheap "splash" death animation either, It really dont suit the gfx rank of the whole game.
Others ideas I had when playing :
- Making the tower gem color change when they will disappear soon
- Let the player crush his own tower to react faster to thoses really annoying green monsters
WOW O.O .... Nice game concept is very original bro! :D i also love the little music xD.... The game is very impressive! NICE WORK! Its like a tower defense but also like... idk xD..
Nice work. The graphics were good. The sound effects were nice and the music was nice for a while (but its repetitiveness was ultimately the reason I stopped playing.)
Great concept. Very original and innovative. I constantly was making interesting tactical decisions to deal with either the eminent threat or try to position myself more generally for the typical threat. That's a pretty neat bit of thinking that emerged from such a simple mechanic.
Well done. Good use of the theme and nice polish.
The game is fun, and I love the music!
Solid mechanic, fun gameplay and good sound / graphics- this is a really impressive game!
Nice take on a minimal tactics game!
Face palm moment. (Why didn't I think of this?) Great game. Great idea. Great execution. Hat's off. Best game so far and I have rated 50ish.
Nice work. It seemed like having any more than two powers puts you at a serious disadvantage, since the enemies move slowly enough to always be hit by the comet between two poles.
pretty good for the time given. I like the one bullet idea for a tower defense.
Really great idea! The game stands well as it is, even though you ran out of time :)
Excellent mechanic, really nicely done, and the art was great.
( That's it I'm afraid, I think all the other points have been covered off already )
It's one of those games on here you'd like to see progress, given some more time and love and ported over to mobile as that would be an ideal platform for it.
Really cool and unique idea, love the graphics and sounds, nice work!
The concept is brilliant! Nice entry!
I really really like this concept. It's got a lot of potential and room for expansion.
I didn't really like the feel though. I think it needs to be precise and crisp, and it feels kind of muddy. I don't know what the reasoning is on having the bullet slow down when it gets near a tower, but from here it feels bad. I'd say that it would also be nice if your cursor had the countdown timer on it.
Oh, the trees at the bottom make important things hard to see :(
Beautiful art and nice concept :)
Pretty cool!!
I really love this game!
The music and sound effect is so like Seiken Densetsu, for the old good time!
Good job! :D
The graphics and music were really good. The game's concept is unique, but I kept wishing I could just destroy my towers instead of waiting.
really great game mechanic and a lot of fun to play with a nice atmosphere and music, good job!
Very much liked the overall feel of the game. This is one you should continue with after Ludum Dare :)
second try, this time with a mouse instead of trackpad: 12700
woo!
Short but fun, glad to hear you guys made it through!
Loved the art and the mechanic, even if it quickly became exceptionally hard to try catch the monsters that took more than one hit in the crossfire. Best of luck - this definitely needs more exposure. :)
This is a truly awesome game. A very unique and fun core mechanic and extremely well polished graphics and sound.
I got up to 19050!
Overall, a fantastic game! Definitely one of my favourites.
Notes:
- Music is okay.
- Ohhh. This is going to be tough.
- These fast guys are difficult.
- Game over. Final score: 5500.
- Nice minimal take on tower defense.
The first couple comments cover my thoughts. Unique and easy to play, though figuring out how to use positioning was a bit tough.
Since it feels like great potential, it looks too basic right now.
Ha, fun idea!
Music and graphics are cute, very good. The game as it is, it's fun, but not overly engaging. Your original plan is everything that this game needs.
Keep up the good work!
AWESOME GAME!
Loved every aspect of it! Innovative take on tower defense games.
