Fun game! Pretty difficult but I enjoyed the challenge! Great work, had to play a few times to try and get a good score :)

I think just one sound effect plays several times is not that good,but it's fun to upgrade the tower.
Could've used some music or more audio, I think the gameplay was pretty slow too. I like the game idea.
Interesting concept, the balance and pacing seems a bit off. I think with a bit of polish and some player feedback this could be an cool game
Aaaaaa my ears!
I recently made a tower defense game as an exercise, it was super fun figuring out targeting priority and some other things. It's fun seeing someone else add pretty much the same features in a different way with different style. This is a cool demo but if I were you I'd have sped it up a lot.
I like this game, nice UI, but progression feels kinda grindy
It's a nice game but the fire sound repeating got a bit annoying after a while
I like the simplicity of the UI but the pacing is a bit too slow. Overall it's a nice game!
Cool tower defense game. I was a bit surprised by the way the prices scaled. Maybe you shouldn't increase the prices of the splash tower when upgrading your single target tower and vice versa. Also the game could use some background music and maybe more detailed graphics. But the main gameplay seems solid and this has the potential to become a really fun little game.
Really boring game. The game is too easy. The splash tower is usefull.asdasd.png What should I do?
My team was considered a tower defense as a possibility and its really cool to see one come to fruition! Definitely there is some issues with balancing that make the game not fit the 'inevitable' idea but thats nothing that can't be fixed with a few tweaks here and there. I would recommend maybe a post submission patch and have a link to each version on your page so that you can improve this game that definitely has potential. I really like the tower defense idea and I think you did a great job overall. The sound effects are solid and the gameplay fits the grab and go style of the Jam. Good job!
This was a LOT of fun. Something about the progression got me really hooked. I still have it running, currently at level 39 and I've pretty much become unstoppable(so technically failure is not inevitable). I barely upgraded the splash tower, I just focused on getting more projectiles and increasing the speed and damage and its currently raining hell on those poor little boxes.
My only complaint is the sound effects are pretty annoying.
Good job making a fun tower defense game (a rare feat imo)
It was a fun game. I played a couple of times. Understanding what does what were a bit difficult in the beginning. Some visual help (like icons) would be nice. Also audio becomes a bit annoying after a while. Maybe you can add some more audio with randomization to avoid the repetition. Nice effort and thanks for making this game! :)
I think this is a solid base for a tower defense game. The economy is a bit funky, though, since upgrading the single target tower increases the cost of the splash tower upgrades, and vice versa. This inevitably leads to a situation where the optimal strategy is to upgrade only one of the towers.
I like it! A good minimal tower defense game with just enough decisions to keep things interesting for a while. =)
Interesting that it was a tower defense game but a single tower. I felt the progression was pretty slow, it made it hard to buy things because everything got more expensive if you got any upgrade. Maybe if it only made the one you bought more expensive it would be better, but balance would probably have to be adjusted. Good work!
