This is really something, I played this for longer than I should have, and multiplayer?! Well done this is really an incredible build. I support this schlop.

online co-op for up to 4 in a jam is ambitious. in practice mode the build-and-defend loop is clear, but the HUD text is small and dense, and the old tech tie felt loose to me. only tried it solo

I played the local mode. It sure seems that those attackers can be easily distracted from what it should be their main objective (the walls), and then the game become like vampire survivors :) Good work, even if I feel the ai-generated intro added nothing to the game and felt like something to justify the title.

There were a lot of questions in the description. It is impressive that a computer can go make something like this, yes. As an old tech myself this vibe coding stuff breaks my heart. Particularly for a game jam. It seems to me like folks are giving up or at least diminishing everything that makes game jams interesting and worthwhile. Developing your own skills. Exploring an idea that you had. Having something at the end that you know you made yourself. Maybe you at least had fun coaxing the machine to create it? I don't really see what the upside is supposed to be, and in the process it supports what these companies are doing to the environment, economy, and job market and their massive copyright theft. Is the game heartless/soulless? It's got exactly the heart and soul that was put into it.
