Man I really liked this idea and execution. Wished there was more 8D

Developer

Thank you! Will keep working on it, have already added a bunch here! adverturrets.netlify.app

Submitted

This was a neat idea. Something you could add would be an upgrade system for the turrets to shoot ads faster or do more damage.

Developer

Thank you! If you can believe it, I had not one but two upgrade systems planned - one using coins to upgrade turrets, the other involving experience and a levelling system. What a fool I was to think I could do all that in a single weekend, for my first game jam hahaha

Submitted

The idea is super cool! I like how the ads get corrupted and with some improvements the game can be published.

Developer

Thank you! I will keep working on it!

Submitted

With more progression, this game can be just brilliant

Developer

Thank you! I feel the same way, watch this space!

Submitted

i loved your visuals !! missing sounds though :(

Developer

I gotchu! adverturrets.netlify.app, let me know what you think! (will update itch after the Jam is over)

Submitted

fun gameplay, cool!

Developer

Thank you!

It's a quick, fun game! I could very well see this concept fleshed out into a full game. I did get a bit motion sick, probably because of the combination of moving sprites and flashing ads, but I was able to get all six turrets! It's satisfying to watch them shoot while everything slides~ to the bottom.

Thank you! I spent so long getting that slide to feel smooth, but then didn't have time to add audio or a background haha! Glad it was appreciated :-D

Funny bit crush effect on ads after clicks. Also did this red bar below is slowly moving up? Or i just imagining it? It will be cool if it does, like a difficulty increaser

And you need to add disclaimer "Do not use this game as a guide on how to surf the internet" XD

Developer

Thanks! I was trying to get them to melt when they reach the red part but couldn't quite get it working in time. It doesn't, but I love that idea!

Haha if only we could install turrets in our content feeds!

Submitted

The turrets looks good

Developer

Can thank craftpix.net for those! I had a laser one ready too but didn't get time to implement, will add post jam

Submitted

I like the idea but it's too simple and there's no end goal

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Very fair, the more I think about it the more it feels like a prototype rather than a game right now. Will keep working on it and see where it leads!

Submitted

Cool concept although it could grow the difficulty as it goes on. Good concept tho

Developer

Thank you! Yeh definitely needs more in depth mechanics and progression, have heaps of ideas I didn't have time for
