  • in the cryptonomicon, both the archer and magic unit are called archers. not a huge deal per se. at some point during wave 12 i couldn't place ranged units anymore. that's it you've made a pretty polished and fun game especially given the time limit

This was great! Art was good, SFX were on-point, basically everything was as it should be. In the music, I heard a similar synth patch as the Merchant in Crypt of the Necrodancer, which I really enjoyed.  Probably not the only other game to ever use that patch, but kudos if whoever made the music put it in there intentionally.

Thank you !!

Fun mix of clicker and tower defense type games!

Amazing how just a bit of screenshake and some particles bring the combat to life, nice job there.

Bit of feedback: not sure if there was any indicator of my main tower's health? Sometimes enemies would walk into it and nothing would happen, and sometimes I'd die and have to restart. Not sure why archers wouldn't shoot enemies sometimes either, pressing F would show the range as touching the enemies, but they wouldn't shoot.


Either way, great job - it plays nicely, and could really flourish with a bit more polish & variety!

I had the same question about the tower health, but I was thankful when an enemy walked in and I didn't have to restart!

Thank you so much ! 

I guess we need some adjustment about our Range preview,  I realized same problem also after I played few times. 

Tower health is written below in menu but it`s hard to see, we`ll change that also in next versions.

Excellent game!

Tower defense games are not my type of game, but, i used to play a few clickers so being able to attack the enemies by clicking was a nice addition <3

I don't know if its a bug, but, at the start of each round, if you click on your turrets, you can fully heal them with just one click. If it was intended to work that way then my bad ahhah


Developer(+1)

Thank you ! 

When every round started our Tower healts  getting maximum but healtbar doesn`t updated, after somehow health value changing (heal/damage) then it`s going the actual value . We`ll update that after jam !

Got to wave 17. Pretty fun concept! The roguelike elements combined with active tower defense is fun. Now I think i have carpal tunnel from all the clicking. Great job on the submission!

Developer

Thank you so much ! :D

The roguelike and tower-defense genres have been brought together in a fantastic way. It offers potentially very open-ended gameplay, and I really liked how well it fits the theme. With more attack/enemy types, it could take on a whole new dimension.

Developer

Thank you so much ! :D
