Cool game, it's pretty tough and gets crazy once the troll dudes start coming, at that point I couldn't find a strategy to get past them consistently.
I wish the unit's icons aligned so that you could just keep pressing on the same spot to send all your guys. But it's a small nitpick and overall I enjoyed it a lot!
Very clever implementation of the loop theme! I don't really play tower defense games (this is a tower defense game, right?), so I don't know how they're like exactly, but I had fun with this one! I like the strategy and resource management.
I beat it by Warriormaxxing btw lol
Really amazing graphics
Very engaging. Nice fantasy world and believable
It's like returning to the childhood, when we used to play war games on our phones. Great job
This game has a balanced and well made game loop. The art is also pretty nice.
This is a good one! I really enjoyed it and beat it!
game is equal parts hard and equal parts fun! otherwise i just have skill issue
pretty fun game, I think the controls could be a bit better, maybe a bit more keyboard based? Got addicted for a bit of time though
We should've allowed to hire units using keyboard shortcuts, that's a good suggestion, thank you!
Fun game, but I think the knights/barbarians/... could get ready directly outside the castle? Unless there is something I am missing, there is no reason to keep them inside. Also the money interface was a tad small, couldn't find the money I had at first. Great game tho, enjoyed it a lot, reminded me of those old flash games.
There's no reason to have anyone with max level in the castle. The range of ranged units isn't that big :)
👍
This is very fun to play i could play this all day just to beat my high score if there are high scores i will play these
all day but other than that Really deserves 5 STARS!
Very fun game!
The control buttons are too small; it's tough to click on them. Excellent reworking of King Watching ideas, at least it seemed very similar to me. Very addictive, even though I couldn't get much further than the big troll :)
A simple gameplay loop, but well executed and innovative. Totally loved seeing your entry in the game jam ;)
Simple gameplay loop, executed and presented perfectly. Just the type of thing I love to see in a game jam. Great submission, well done! :)
love the concept, gameplay is simple but engaging
This game is vary fun
Very fun game, I felt like the balance was pretty off and spamming knights was the strongest play, but it might be a skill issue... Also when you get further in, the enemies just straight up one shotting your castle feels pretty brutal, but I guess that's what you get later in the game.
I really enjoyed the loop train mechanic though, I only wished that was easier to click or maybe have a hotkey for it. Great entry!
i cant handle it, to dificulty for me =( but i give it a try, its a cool loop mechanic to train the units
