I really like the idea behind this game. I got to around score 1,000 before getting bored. Game kinda stalls after you build 3 of everything. Maybe add more upgrades and increase incoming enemies as time goes on.

Was really confused for a while, specially with my azerty keyboard, and didnt expect the use of the mouse. But I perservered and managed to get around 800 points :) At a certain points the game becomes a bit repetitive, as you have so much points to build defenses that you just have to repair all buildings without much change. Pretty intense and fun gameplay before this point thought, good job :)
The game is good but there is too few evolution of the turrets and harder ennemies. After 1.000 points, i found how to win forever ^^ The music is original, i liked it! Good work
Nice tower defense game, fun to play! Maybe you could add the ability to build platforms or to expand the island so the goal of the game would be to expand as far or as high as possible. Then you could also lift the 3 turret maximum and some more upgrades and more enemy types :)
The concept is interesting. At some point the game kept me very exciting. I liked graphics and the music is very original. Thank you and good job!
Quite simple as it is a defender, well it's hard to inovate on this type of game but I really enjoyed it. Scored 700 points so I think it's not really good but I liked it so far. Maybe it lacks some more types of turrets and some upgrades.
The graphics are cool, simple but effective and the sound is really good. I can see you are alone on this project so really good work buddy !
Fun, but it does stall out after a while, where my only real action was just to spam click everything on the screen.I like the use of a movable character in a tower defense game as that adds a good amount of intensity. I also felt like the walls did very little, especially when you couldn't upgrade them very much.
Interesting game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 38 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15RvXBjxVuU&feature=youtu.be
Cool game !
The music is a little weird though x) Moreover, I think you should make an in-game toturial instead of give controls in the description.
Keep working on the game, the idea is cool :)
Nice little tower defense game - I spent longer on this than I realized. I got to 1008. Would have been fun to have a win condition of some sort, but it's fun even without.
This is a solid, well executed game that has a great deal of potential. Like others before me - once my score was approaching 1,000 I seemed to be invincible so I stopped playing. However, the fact is I kept playing that long which means there is clearly something there! If you could develop this further and include levels - perhaps the first level is the one you have here with the same limitations but then, for each new level, the island gets slightly bigger and you can build more of everything?
Excellent work and I do hope you continue to develop it.
I liked the game, but I don't understand why you can just place 3 turrets. In the end I had lots of parts and had nothing to do (beside repairing everting). The sound a graphic are well done.
One of those games where it seems like there's a lot of controls to learn, but pretty quickly you know them all as you run around trying to save your little island! As other said, I stopped after a while (rather than because I died) but otherwise it was hectic fun
I not have Windows but game really looks Perfect, art is good. Great job!
Fun for a little while but I don't really like the build limit (at least not as low as it is now). I'd suggest either making it harder to build things or ramp up the enemy rate a bit more so you just can't build an overpowered defense too quickly but if you manage it well you can progressively keep building it up.
Interesting game! got to around 1000 before I stopped.
Nice game man. You seem to understand games.

Good work. :) The gameplay felt a little bit static after a while: it would have been nice to have structures that increase the number of sentries you can build, so long as those structures aren't destroyed, or something.
The core gameplay worked well though, although the game could have done with a counter to show how many of each building you had (and what the maximum of each was).
Music was in-keeping with the style and reminded me of some of the early GBC games.
If you're still rating games, we need a couple more to make it to 20! (Shameless plug, I know! ^^;)
Overall, fun game, just needs a bit more incentive to keep playing. :)
Keep it up!
