An attack animation would have been nice, I didn't knew I was hitting stuff in the beginning :D

I like the minimalistic art and tactical aspect of the game with building stuff to help you.

All in all a quite fun game.

I agree that an attack animation would have helped a lot, also some sounds effects. I like the idea, the way things spread and more enemies pop up, and the music fits really well! I didn't manage to actually win as I can't see where I aim, if I hit, and once there are a few clustered mushrooms it's really hard to kill them.

It's a really nice entry for your first jam, good work!

An attack as well as an enemy hit effect is sorely needed. Enemies can also stack on top of each other, which doesn't feel right. I thought that the run/stamina bar is far too long. I guess it is nice for the player, but seems a little overly generous. I love the terraforming concept! Perhaps the 'corrupted' terrain should hurt or slow down the player. The music is amazing!

Congratulations on finishing your first Ludum Dare! You should all be very proud!

I agree with the previous feedbacks, give a lot visual feedback(attack, damage, enemies's healthbars, healer's radiuses, etc.) to the user. I still don't know what's the healer's radius, or how the attack works(radius, speed, damages). I really enjoyed the musics (the main theme reminds me a lot of Kung Fury!) Overall the game is simple, it's balanced in it's difficulty, and the graphics are not bad. For a first game created in 72 hours the result is actually good. Keep going in the next jams and remember to give more visual feedbacks to the player ;)

I agree with the previous posts as well, some feedback would of been nice but overall for a first Ludum Dare game is really good work and you should be totally proud of it! Learn and continue to make the next games even more awesome. It's a decent game and I enjoyed playing around with it! ^-^

The music felt super dramatic and a bit disjointed from the action. As others mentioned would be nice to have some feedback that the 'attack' is working, whether a sound, sprite, animation, or something. Game restarted when I alt-tab out :( A nice first entry(much more polished than my first attempt).
