"Hell Wars 18: Soul Harvest", a Ludum Dare Submission. This game was created by quill18. All craftsmanship is of the highest quality. It is filled with demons and souls. It depicts a demon leading the souls of the damned into limbo in the late summer of 2015. It menaces with the names of Twitch Subscribers. It is studded with homemade assets made of Unity.

This game is great! Best one yet Quill. Keep up the good work!

i LOve it

I love the game! I watched you build it on twich while I was working on my own. You game me tons of great ideas and tips. It's great to watch someone who knows what they are doing and enjoys interacting with the community.

Tower defense may be my least favorite genre but "Hell Wars XVIII: Soul Harvest" is better than most and that's saying a lot for a game built in just 48 hrs. The game lures you into a false sense of security and makes you think that you have the upper hand on the Demon Lords for a good stretch of the game. Do not be fooled! I had a lot of fun with this game.

markoburzan27 2015-08-24 04:02

awesome game I watched your stream and loved it.

Incredibly deep and well polished tower defense game. There are some serious game mechanics employed here that are very impressive for a game jam. The audio is absolutely amazing and the game follows the theme very well. A lot of fun to play. Very balloons tower defense like.

I spent WAY too much time on this. Crazy fun! It could be a bit harder though, after 10 minutes of play my portal still hadn't lost any health, and demon lords were being burned very fast.

Still, gameplay is rock solid, so that's what counts most!

mactinite 2015-08-24 05:01

A nice tower defense. So many upgrades.

cynapse 2015-08-24 05:06

Would get demoted to middle management again. Great work, Quill!

krisdevelopment 2015-08-24 05:12

Watched the stream, awesome game :3

evergreen-games-ludum-dare 2015-08-24 05:34

Super fun! Amazing depth. the graphics are kinda weak but it doesnt really matter

filiph 2015-08-24 06:20

Wow, how did you manage to build this much content in 48 hours?

Anyways: very fun game, with a nice twist on tower defence (with the soul chambers mechanic). Lots of options.

Works on Mac, btw.

gaius-baltar 2015-08-24 09:12

This one's gonna be up there

Donnerbalken 2015-08-24 09:34

Awesome game, built in just 48 hours on Lifestream! Loved to watch you and to enjoy the game.

Nikolajboll 2015-08-24 10:26

quilltastisk :D very fun :D love the sounds :D

wevel 2015-08-24 11:11

Great game, the soul zooka doesn't fire demon lords who are stealing souls which makes the late game very difficult.

garvon 2015-08-24 11:17

It was really fun. I lasted over 20 minutes.

rongon 2015-08-24 11:32

Interesting game, audio is superb. If you don't win in audio category, then don't know who will.
Very playable and a lot of content for 48h competition.
Watched the beginning of Ludum Dare at your twitch channel, keep up the great work.

hippieshaman 2015-08-24 12:47

The source provided does not have the subscriber names array populated.

ventura 2015-08-24 13:00

I watched developing it in twitch at the end, It was very exciting. I think the code looked very good organized and the game was complex to do, good done! :D

ventura 2015-08-24 13:03

I think it would be intersting to watch some LD games in your youtube channel too. :)

chunkybrewster 2015-08-24 13:03

This is a great tower d, I'll probably be playing this a lot! Also very inspiring, I was amazed at how much you were able to accomplish in the 48 hours, it was pretty incredible watching you on the stream.

mathias234 2015-08-24 13:33

Great game, If you didnt tell me i would never guess that this was made in 48 hours :)

multitudes22 2015-08-24 15:04

Such an amazing game. I think it's your best one yet!

xgeovanni 2015-08-24 15:06

A great game as always Quill. Linux version works fine on my machine.

jk5000 2015-08-24 17:36

I knew that limbo was evil. Great game.

officialcodenmore 2015-08-24 18:43

Expansive map, cool idea!

wizzardmaker 2015-08-24 20:47

Great Game! The Soundeffects are just gorgeous. Great Humor!

robonebula 2015-08-24 21:43

Very nice, quill. Audio could've been better.

unnamed1334 2015-08-24 22:21

Cool game. The sound effects were defiantly the best part. The game did start to get repetitive near the end but I quickly enough that it didn't matter. The only thing that felt missing was a sell button.

liquidmedia 2015-08-25 00:02

Great Game. I Watched the stream of the creation, and The only Game I have downloaded the zip for.

d3giler 2015-08-25 00:09

Extremely Fun, well done quill18, the sound effects,especially the quirky humorous ones really made the game xD

boskosokolov 2015-08-25 00:48

good game and good idea nice job man!

goost 2015-08-25 00:49

Finally, a Tower Defence Game which I like! But the sound effects are killing me, great!

kunonooni 2015-08-25 02:30

Watched you make this off and on throughout the 48 hours. Lots of fun. I stored 782 souls and lasted 35 waves.

mzmiric5 2015-08-25 02:31

Classic Quill18 game, really fun, easy to get lost in. I watched Quill make it on his stream during my breaks, always a great resources. The only negative is that the sounds sometimes get annoying, so the mute button comes in handy :)

bkgh 2015-08-25 03:49

Very fun game!

karai17 2015-08-25 04:20

Didn't fit the theme that well but otherwise a very solid game.

wg_phancock 2015-08-25 04:21

Doesn't fit theme particularly well, but not bad gameplay and pretty decent voice effects.

dragongino 2015-08-25 10:10

build your own hell and defend it.the game it self is really good balance between the amount of souls comming and powerfull demons.and sounds voiced by the man it self. what could you ask more.

lee1121 2015-08-25 11:57

Great game Quill :)

kakureta 2015-08-25 17:30

Awesome game! It was fun and kept me playing for a while. The graphics are basic but cool and the sounds are funny!
I had a lot of fun.

general 2015-08-25 20:32

I noticed your screenshot 2 days ago and made a mental notice to play your game. Glad to see a defense game! Quite unusual that I can't upgrade a single tower, as in most TD games, but this system works nicely.

Here're my video reviews: http://youtu.be/AkOdas_qL9A
Your game is at 13:22

linus123xbb 2015-08-25 20:57

Very humoristic kind of game, I always enjoy playing your games. It was nice to see a 2D game for a change.

tweedle 2015-08-26 00:50

Wave 41! really fun play thru, nicely done! some schmancy art and this would have been 5 stars -T

fraanns 2015-08-26 12:18

Great game as always quill

tau7153 2015-08-26 19:53

Very nice overall good audio decent art and fun gameplay, not much sense of threat though.

dusho 2015-08-27 07:34

watched the steam a bit, you were really trying hard to fit in subscribers into game
the background graphics doesn't fit other art, you could have hand draw something as well
still.. fun game, good work as usual

wanderteam 2015-08-27 17:14

Very funny game. Its incredible that is possible male this type of game in very short time.
The theme are perfect for this ludum.

jofra 2015-08-28 22:59

the firing sound is the best one i have heard so far ahah awesome. Very nice game.
Gj!

literal_games 2015-08-30 15:34

Nice, surprisingly well balanced, so managed to get to the "end" but not without being worried I might lose. Lots of fun!

tomdeal 2015-08-30 21:24

Cool game! The graphics could use a bit more work, but the gameplay is good

antisc2 2015-09-03 20:26

A very good game. Very fun and addicting! Did have some weird UI problems on linux with a 16:10 resolution but I think that is more of a Unity problem. All in all, a very good submission!

kidando 2015-09-06 12:05

There's depth in this game. Not bad for a compo entry. I didn't play very much, but imagine if you had multiplayer where you could sabotage your opponents efforts (as opposed ai devil) :). Great job on submitting your entry

los-pixelados 2015-09-11 18:12

Awesome as always. And even more content than last time.
The sounds are so funny.
GG quill18 :)

Cheers.

sparrow 2015-09-11 20:40

Awesome work! Had fun and played this for quite a while. Almost made it to the last upgrade.

ibai-aizpurua 2015-09-13 14:09

I really love the sound effects. At the beggining I didn't know what was going on... 30 minutes later... I still didn't know what was going on, but it was fun!
