This takes me back to my addictinggames.com days... well done!
Great graphics, really good overall :)
I just love the music and the art! Great job man
I really love the details in the game and the humor in the game as well as in your description here. Really amazingly done
I liked the animations and the Idea! Congratz! :)
You got me when he fill the potion >< so fun
Really liked the idea and the game overall. Great job!
What a brutal business model. I felt sorry for the dude. Nice entry! Also spiders are cute.
My highest rated game played yet. Love this, it's more difficult than I expected!
Excellent. Beautiful. Astounding!!!
(waz here)
Very nice. Even though I pretty much hate tower defence genre. Lovely art and music and puns in game names are always good in my books. Only visual thing that stuck to me was the lack of shading on knights and gnome on the actual game scene. Made them pop out (and not in a good way) from everything else that was more detailed. Another thing that lack the polish that otherwise was there was the health bars.

The balancing and overall progress flow were a bit off. The only way I was able to win was to just use 5 spiders on the first round and then completely drain the gnome. That with our savings from the first round are enough to bank a win. The traps were just too damn expensive to warrant their use. I see in the screenshot above that you had them as 60 at some point, seems more fair.
The lack of progress was also quite depressing. You lost all your buildings each round and the enemies didn't seen to get harder or increase in number the further it went at all. I was just pretty much stuck in a loop of all the blood I could make with traps was barely enough to make as much blood the next round.
The shopping cutscene looked nice but started to be a bit annoying after being in the fore mentioned loop for quite some while. Would be nice if it was skippable. The potion filling wrongfully played the sound on each click wether the previous one was done or not.
Anyways, good job!
This game is amazing! I love tower defenses :) and this is so well crafted! The graphics is so cute, I loved the intro sequence, every detail is so on point. Very well done!!
beat it! I died the first time around since you can get in a bad state if you spend too much in the beginning, but after that I was able to figure it out and save up enough money. There were times where I probably collected more blood than I needed, so perhaps awarding player or making it more clear they shouldn't collect too much? The art and expressions on the shopkeeper were very good. Keep up the good work!
Super cute art and music, the progress through rounds can be a bit frustrating but I had a lot of fun playing it!
I really like the game :D It's innovative and well balanced. Good Job!
Amazing! This game was super fun and interesting. You can really see that there was an idea and a game built around it. Loved the art and general design of the game. Feels very polished and cute. Really enjoyed the music and found it very fitting (gives off that shady Russian mafia feel) :). I especially like the spider... ;)
Great graphics and it has a nice polish for a jam game. Great work!
Really like the ideia of making potions with your blood and selling them, the animation on this part is great too, and the sound fits right on with the game, the problems for me were there's no progression on difficulty or spawn of enemies and there's only 2 traps. Ps. Nice touch with the credits carved on the table, cool ideia.
Creative game, creative concept, fits the theme, and is fun! Check check check and CHECK! Really cool game! It's cute and the art is great. I thought the potion's ingredient was very funny. Awesome job!
haha funny game great work
It's a great game, graphics and sound are good, the gameplay is good too !
The idea is great, but saddly there is not more. I would love to play more if it were a full game =)
Nice game team :D very funny (especially the word plays) and wholesome. For the game jam game, you hit the right scope for tower defence. Game matches theme and is fun to play :D keep up the good work
Well done! I want to see more of you!
Just the original way of hiding credits as little scratches on the counter top gave this game a 5/5 for Humor for me, idk why, it cracked me up!
Brilliant take on the theme! Great work and clever word play on the game name. This was really fun and reminded me of playing old school tower defence games back in the day :thumbsup:
A charming mix of adorable, cute, kiddie style graphics and rather sinister subject matter!
Wow, what a detailed entry! I didn't quite grasp every mechanic at first, but while I played I started realizing all the different interlocking gameplay elements. I love how subtly but clearly these mechanics are explained just through playing! everything is very well polished here, great work!
I really liked the mood and humor of this game. Didn't find the good way to use the traps, because I ended short of blood very quickly. But this still was fun to play, good job!
Awesome job! Very creative concept, and well executed.
I love tower defense! Polished art, good music and made great use of the theme. The gnome's face after selling blood is the best of the game. Keep up the good work after JAM. I want to play more phases. Congratulations!
I also have a game on Ludum 44. Please try, rate and comment.

Well that was depressing :laughing: What I really liked about this game was the polish: the graphics, the soundtrack, the sound effects, the flow of the game - really well done! I wish there was a little more depth to the game mechanics, but if you wanted to do a post-jam version that seems easy to add. You could then easily put this on an app store if you wanted.
Loved the artwork and music. I finally figured out that the spikes were filling the blood so I wasn't using my own health for the potions. At first the game was difficult but after a couple of times it is very easy to win after just the first wave, which takes away the replayability. Still, amazing use of the theme and loved the eyes when you see you don't have enough funds.
looks and plays lovely !
I was sold on the title alone. Really great game on all fronts. Good job! :)
Well rounded game, where the art and audio really pull it together and give it a solid full-game feel. An interesting push/pull with the way you get currency and attacking the mobs.
The title is so great and I had fun playing this!
The game is neatly done. The art looks damn cute. Congratulations! Great work!
