This game is really well done and fits the theme perfectly! I loved it!

The weapons are pretty funny!
Nice palette by the way...

Simple and fun! perfect match with the theme

Good weapons, neat how they work together. I wasn't a fan of the pallette, but it works. A bit of simple audio would have made this top notch.

sinclairstrange 2015-04-21 20:25

Not bad, colours hurt my eyes :P. I love the different weapons, over all not bad at all :)

funny game , hhhh , I can't imagine I was really throwing diapers on them
ooh and the might old phones
good work!

Dude, what is up with your color palette? :P

Really nice game. Excellent fit to the theme and great game overall. Not a big fan of the graphics but it worked.

This is a great game! Well done!
My only issue is I think the old phone stopped working in the middle of a level. It would kill trolls with one hit at first then it wouldn't later in the level.
Great work! Keep it up!

Diapers... perfect

suppi 2015-04-21 20:43

definitely unconventional weapons!
the color palette made me a bit nostalgic :)

Fits perfectly with the theme! Cool mechanics by the way! If you keep working on it, you will have a fresh and nice tower defense! Keep working on it!

Neat little game, though it really could've used some sounds.

Really strong theming and graphics, I like 80s DOS aesthetic and hideous palette. I didn't find the gameplay particularly interesting but you kept me for 5 rounds because I wanted to know what all the different item types were. I liked how the function of each item was not immediately apparent until you used it.

allanolivei 2015-04-22 01:07

The game is fun, this according to the theme and works very well.

This is excellent. I loved the variety of surprising weapons & enemies. The way things are presented via treasure chests and inventory screens is droll.

The color choices are a little sadistic but OK for this short game. I dig the Spectrum style.

smilingcat 2015-04-22 01:10

Alas, the CGA color palette. How I've missed you. Nice castle defense game, great job.

torcado194 2015-04-22 01:47

pretty interesting game! i thought the color choice was neat. the different weapons were nice, though the phone never worked right for me so i never used it, and since there were only 6 weapon options i didnt really have trouble choosing 5. Otherwise i thought it was fun! my score was 66563.

mghareeb32 2015-04-22 07:57

It's never too late to throw one more diaper :D
Nice game!

demy 2015-04-22 15:32

woohooo scored 67k! Fits in there perfectly, short and fun.

jk5000 2015-04-22 19:14

Here is some really unconventional weapons.

deadfragment 2015-04-22 19:29

The game runs well, I found using the items abit fiddly, perhaps if you had a way to have an item selected so that each click would use that item, as opposed to dragging it onto the screen. Overall a great idea with the use of many unconventional weapons

Good job! Love how the punk visuals fit the slanted humour. I was compelled to complete the stages to find out what the next weapon did.

The controls in the battle itself were a little cumbersome (at least with my trackpad). I would have like hotkeys for the weapons and an explicit cooldown counter.

Nice idea to use the map- a quick and efficient way to create a sense of place and progress.

aaronjbaptiste 2015-04-25 18:12

Lots of content here, must have taken alot of time creating all the effects.

The dragging mechanic is a bit tiresome, wish you could just click the ground to place it.

goerp 2015-04-27 19:34

Haha, those were some GREAT weapons. Very funny. Good take on the theme.

Some noises would have been nice, but I had fun playing too.

archonthewizard 2015-05-06 19:47

This game was a lot of fun! Could be an awesome full game with better graphics

pianoracercollective 2015-05-09 10:50

I scored 71573. It was an awesome game! I missed sound effects though and also a description of what each item does.

big-cow 2015-05-09 16:21

Conrastulations, you won!
One of my favourite games of the jam. So simple, yet well executed and very fun to play. The weapons had nice variety, enough so that there was actual strategy in using them. Good job!

arcturusdeluxe 2015-05-09 16:56

Amusing game. Simple concept but works pretty well. Nice use of the old CGA style palette, perhaps you should have kept the resolution at 320x200 for added authenticity! Good stuff overall.

Really cool game-especially the content of it. I liked the fact that you could choose your weapons and that they each had unique powers (though I felt the shovel was a little too good and the mushrooms just bought you some time), mainly because that isn't something I have seen anywhere else. However, the lack of music hurt the feeling of the game and the art really could have used a bit more time/detail.

Cool game though!

matt-beckett 2015-05-10 02:19

Perfect colour palette, and easy to pick up and get right into the game. Really enjoyed this one. Well done!

k0j0 2015-05-11 01:35

This is great! I really, really like the battle system. You could make a very quirky RPG out of this

idoadler 2015-05-11 05:06

I'm impressed!
Very nice game-play, had nostalgic feel to it, cool drawings.
Wish it didn't restart from the beginning when I died, but I guess I shouldn't die :)
