How does your game fit the theme?
A train loops around some tracks, and the player has to defend it from some goblins that want to blow it up!

Very cool game. I enjoyed trying to find a balance between repairing rails, killing goblins, destroying dynamite and buying upgrades. It has a solid gameplay loop. I did find it pretty much impossible to aim and use the shotgun correctly, so it just wasn't worth using. Other than that, though, good job!!

Plug ItCute game! At first, I could not figure out the controls for repairing the track — maybe you could include it in the description.

Loois the Looping LoopsterI liked the idea enough to give it a few plays. I found the shotgun to be broken or I just didn't know how to aim it so I opted to ignore that and just go for pure speed which is great but at a certain point there's just too many goblins to reach them in time.

Journey Through Darkvery nice! I managed to get to 5 :) I would recommend adding press 'E' to leave the shop to the controls on the itch page, as that stumped me for a moment

Wheel of SeasonsI like the idea! Can get a bit challenging when multiple goblins plant dynamite right in front of the train. But overall, very interesting!

Flock 'n' LoadReally intense game. While playing you have think about your priorities. Got pretty hard but i like the idea about guarding the rails and mantaining it. If the train removes dynamite it may be less punishing, when an enemy runs straight to it.

How To Repair 3325-TThe game looks great and I like how you used the theme. I agree with the other comments that the way the shotgun fires is confusing and I thought that it was bugged, but good work overall.

Arrow of TimeLove the sounds!!
Like the idea, although when you get far enough you kinda just get swarmed and can't do much, maybe if there were traps you could set
Love the game anyways

Get In The LoopFun game, could have an animation for the dynamite to see how close it is to exploding.

Many-Fold Time AttackReally like the vibe of the game, cozy and awesome. I would've liked more soundeffects and general gamejuice but I get that time restraints make it difficult. I love that you used a custom aspect ratio and that you built the game as with webgl. I don't like how the shotgun works and I think the difficulty progression could be better. I also think it the game could have a stronger connection to the theme.
Anyways great game, good job :))

Walk-BoyCool idea, but seems a bit random on the tnt placement so it's a bit of luck for how easy it is. Easy to get overwhelmed fast. The gun shooting is bugged for me, it shots backwards
