Nice game! I can really see it being expanded with maybe having multiple big batteries and different ways to power them. Also the pixel art is very clean!

cool idea, was a little too hard for me tho

upgrading should maybe pause the game or have a bigger pause between waves and indicate that, didnt really had much time to do it

I always loved base defense games. It was really fun to play. Graphics were nice. Microwave explosion sound was a bit loud. Nice work!

I really liked this action- tower defense game. It's very cute and really satisfying to win. I didn't really understand how the theme goes practically with this game but that's ok. As @kaganobik said, the microwaves are loud.

Btw, I made a game really similar to this one in LD43, so high five :D :hand_splayed:

Cool idea and I like the game!

Cool game! I like the idea of a dynamic tower defense.

Nice little game here! I love tower defences! A background music would be a good add to have... Anyway, nice job!

Well done base defence game! An expanded version could really do with more upgrade diversity.

Cool little idea for a game and its super fun to play despite the limited nature of the game.

it's a lot of fun, a little loose connection to the theme and the difficulty curve kind of ramps up a lot after wave two but it felt pretty natural despite that and wasn't too difficult. Cute little game.

Great game concept, I sort of felt like the ally robots were a bit too OP, i pretty much sat down and won at the end since they did such a great job. All in all I liked it, wish it was a bit better balanced and that the aim didn't get stuck while firing.

I enjoyed this game a lot! My favorite part being the microwaves XD. There was one but that I kept on hitting where I could not move, that may have been me not noticing something important. If it was the result of running out of energy or something, it would be nice to have some sort of indicator to tell you when you ran out of movement. It might also be nice for it instead of stopping you entirely, it just slows you down a bit.

(Edit:) I notice now that there is an explanation point above the player, it still would be nice if there was something slightly more noticable. Such as a screen distortion of overlay.

Great game overall!

I found myself having a lot of fun! The graphics are cute and the sound effects match them, although it got a little overwhelming when there were a lot of enemies at once. There's definitely a pretty huge leap from wave 2 to 3, but I enjoyed the hectic feeling! As far as criticism, I agree that it doesn't fit the theme as closely as a lot of other games, and I would have liked it to go on for a little longer. It felt like as long as you survived round 3 you'd definitely win. However, overall it's a great game!
