Couldn't stop laughing at the card sounds, amazing!

Sadly I could not drag the cards towards the towers

Wow, that audio, so loud. No way to turn it off. x.x Can't play it, cards don't move, can't see "?" either. Just two white boxes.

Interesting take on the theme, I like that you need to move tower cards back to the hand to upgrade them. Congrats on the submission!

Like some other people I initially was confused that I wasn't able to drag cards to the tower slots, but apparently it was because dragging is disabled during the pause between waves. Glad that I was able to figure it out :sweat_smile:

A fun and nicely polished game, the UI is smooth and the tutorial/in-game help is clear. For some reason, Wave 24 never ended, although enemies stopped appearing (I got there by upgrading the explosion tower to have minimum cooldown).

Aw I really wanted to try this game but I think the UI might be bugged? I couldn't drag the cards unfortunately. here's the screenshot of the game, on the top right I assume you had buttons but they loaded as white squares. It might be a web version issue? I will come back and play it later if it's fixed :D Capture.PNG

@okshirl thanks for the enthusiams ! we are not quite sure why but in some browser our font / whole ui seems to be bugged out. i can recommend trying it in a different browser that usually works :)

Yay ! Managed to clear 11 waves before dying !

Congrats on an interesting design ! However it's a bit difficult to maximise dps by switching turrets when there's so much happening at once so i found myself mainly switching between two or three turrets but not very much. The fact that I couldn't upgrade the turrets in between waves made the thing a bit more complicated because I had to do that and process the information while at the same time managing the ennemies. That doesn't mean it's not an interesting challenge but I myself would rather have a little bit more time to prepare in between waves.

Also, is there a turret to help against the medic ennemies ? The suppression one didn't seem much use and I found it almost impossible to kill this type of ennemies.

Well done for the graphic design it helps a lot to differentiate tower types.

Overall nice job :)

The look is very simple, but it is interesting. I just didn't really enjoy it because it was difficult to know which card did what, despite the instructions, it still wasn't enough for me.

The chrome version is broken and i was stuck just after my deck appears. The firefox one work well. (maybe add a note for players?). Overall its a great fun game ! :)
