Kinda confusing that you cant see the prices of each unit. I kinda like the game but the UI makes it hard to tell whats going on. The idea is good though!

i have published a patch on itch.io where i fixed the ai bugs , and in the next i'm go to patch your comment ^^

Be sure to put your patch notes in the description. Most people will want to play the original, unpatched version because it's more fair that way (it's the actual jam entry). Nice tower defence setup, keep going. Consider ways you could give the player something to do once a round starts (I think I couldn't do anything until the round was over.)

Quick reminder to get more players: Use a thumbnail for your game. Otherwise your game is presented with this grey box. Some great Games are not played because of a missing thumbnail ... You can still change it by editing your submission page :)

thanks for your comment BinarySpark , on my itch io there are the 2 versions ^^

Great use of the concept! I think it would be nice if you could see the price of the units and how much life you have. The graphics reminded of old computer games, very stylish :D

Hey, nice job on oompleting a game. I got to the 3rd level ! Here are some things I feel could have been done better: - Let player click on constructibles to select them, it took me some time to figure out I needed to use number keys - Give an explanation on what the different constructibles do and what the stats are. - Give a bit more health to turrets so the player can enjoy building his defenses. My turrets always got killed the turn they were put down. - I didn't really enjoy the gold penalty for taking my time - it made me feel like the optimal strategy was to dump my money as fast as possible - Make all numbers and text very big ! some of use have really poor eyesight :)

Neat TD game :). I like the blocking part and the graphics. I didn't get any sound even though the category is up for rating? I think it would make a lot of sense to be way more progressive on the levels since it got a bit too easy when you are getting it under control.

Keep up the good work :)!game_upload.PNG

Thanks for all your comments, i read all comments and I'm taking everything into account for future patches.

I liked the game mechanics, and I played a few rounds. I will try out the jam version also. Nice job! :)

rexgame 2020-04-22 19:20

Thanks, new patches comes later for make a clean game ^^

Solid TD! Would have liked it running just a wee bit faster.

arcus 2020-04-22 19:40

Great game! TD's are always fun to play. As said above ^ I agree that running should be a tad faster. :smiley:

rexgame 2020-04-22 19:41

thanks, check the futures patch to know if you like more play at my game ^^

spicypaper 2020-04-22 20:16

not bad :)

rexgame 2020-04-22 20:18

xD :p

phasm-studios 2020-04-22 20:32

The game play was a little slow. The difficulty was very unbalanced, or am I just bad lul. Ok graphics and the audio would be nice.

rexgame 2020-04-22 20:37

The diffictulty was fixed in the next patch ^^ and for the graphics thanks :)

thanks for your comment !

Nice entry. As others have said, the UI could be a bit more intuitive, but I figured out what each of the units did after a few tries and had fun experimenting with different strategies.

It's a bit punishing that your towers get destroyed so easily; if you have a bad round, you don't only take damage to your base, you've also lost all your units. That being said, you provide some tools to help save your units by putting little shields in front of them or slowing down the enemies. My best was level 6.

Well done for a Compo, especially since it looks like it's your first LD!

rexgame 2020-04-22 22:20

@jeremy-ryan Thanks and yes it's my first LD ^^ i fixed the problems in the next patches ^^

rolly 2020-04-24 08:24

Congrats on your first entry! It's a nice implementation of a tower defense.

The visuals are good and do the job, I would only hope to see some background :)

Is there a reason why you didn't opt-out from the audio category? I double-checked but couldn't hear any music or sound? Am I missing something?

Nice entry!

sebeee 2020-04-26 16:23

I think this is a great game.

Well done!

rexgame 2020-04-27 13:12
