Tower defense just makes so much sense for this theme
Interesting! and making a strategy game in such a short time is uneasy!
Positive: It's a fun idea. I played long enough to try different strategies. The graphics and UI are good.
Negative: There's no time to figure things out at the start. I wish I could pause and review my options. I was never able to build an assault rifle guy. The waves got too big too fast - I kept one pistol guy alive by keeping him in the air and he still couldn't hold off the onslaught of the third round.
All in all, I'd really enjoy this with a bit of polish.
Not gonna lie, I relate heavy with the "I just wanna sleep" comment lol. Great game, enjoyed the general mechanics and clearly was difficult to make in a short amount of time.
Fun idea and very ambitious for the compo! I could not survive for very long, I think more time on the first day and some kind of pointer where to start would help. Nice entry!
Nice idea. My first impressions were terrible though. The version embedded here has the wrong resolution so the resources at the top were cut off. Then I tried the web build on itch and that seemed broken. Turns out its the first two maps from the level select that don't work properly. The first map the first night never ends, and the second you get swarmed almost instantly.
I did have some fun with it once I tried the third map and played about with the options though. Clicking on the people makes them go up. They could also fire when you are moving them around which was entertaining. The resource gain did not seem enough for anything, even fully upgraded, and its generally not clear what is happening. Something to say what the buildings were doing after they are build would have been helpful. The particles when you click on the ground are misleading.
Very difficult! It looks great though, cool scenery and character art.
