Nice job.
I just died, twice :)
The positive:
* The wind makes a lot of the atmosphere * Easy to move around * Super cool overlay of ice on the screen
The less positive:
* I didn't understand the use (or is there one) between the circle we collect on the map (is it ammo/score/hp?) this wasn't clear * "You win if you survive 4;00) as I saw on the itch page, you could improve the game by having this as a countdown on the screen.
Blue orbs turrets by pressing e red adds health
I liked the art and sound the basic concept but if could have added sounds and some trail renderers to the bullets that would have been great also some camera shake (never forget the camera shake).
I enjoyed the environment.
Combining tower defense with wilderness survival is a neat idea. I like how I have to go out scavenging for resources. One criticism I have is with the controls; having your movement direction be based on the mouse position is super unintuitive in a top-down perspective. That being said, I think that the overall atmosphere of the game is really great, especially with the wind noise and the blurring of the screen at the boarder. Overall, this game is a bit rough around the edges, but shows some potential. Good job!
It would be great game, if turrets won´t get stuck and stop shooting. However I was able to survive and finish the game, but it was quite difficult and almost died. The mood of this game was quite strong - I really felt like alone in winter (even when outside is already 25°C :D ). Overall good job, but game needs little bit polishing.
