Pretty fun tower defense game! Feels like the "strategy" just boils down to getting an A or S tier turrent and then you win, so it definitely needs more balancing.
twas a fun game to play - got to round 6 :-)
Nice aesthetics, liked that neon vibe and the mechanics are great, it's awesome for a tower defense game I think.
Well done!
great art and a hilarious vibe to it. great work to everyone that contributed.
Interesting idea, but it is breaking game's balance and to the 7+ wave I've decided to end wave when it've been becoming too tedious. But concept has potential - I'd offer to make more tight limit to max turrets (like in PvZ for example). Good job!
A very polished game. I love the art style, especially the doodled map backgrounds. Awesome work!
I love tower defense games. And this is a solid one.
Nice idea to let the player decide when to end the round. That opens up some new strategy options.
Great Work.
It's a very fun game and there's something insanely addictive about seeing how many enemies I can let in before I've had enough.
REALLY fun, I was planning on quickly playing it, but got hooked for half an hour. Well done!
A very creative entry! Really impressed that you made a tower defense game in a week! > v<
Roguelike plus tower defence is a good combination and game fits the jam's theme well with gambling for your towers. Overall pretty good game, needs some balancing though.
This is a good one. Took a couple minutes before I knew what I was doing. The names of the towers are absolute gold. Everything looks good. Some things weren't intuitive. Had no idea I could switch my prize until I discovered the $3 button. Might want to point that out on that screen. Great game!
A good use of the theme by making it a tower defence game. The tutorial could be improved by not filling the screen with a lot of information
Very cool game, I liked the neon aesthetic. Well done!
Had a good time with this one! :) The visuals are going HARD and the gameplay loop was easy to get into. :)
Thanks for making this!
Really fun game and I loved the meta references on the menu screen. Also great job on making all the assets, they looked great and were very unique :)
Very well made, played it for a longe time, i love the vibe, although i didn't quite get the shop, like how can you select which towers you want and why is there always a card called laikas starcade ??? i like hat you can choose how long the waves take for yourself, also the main art is firee,also the music was great
Love this game, it was really fun and i enjoyed, I noticed its named after Laika which i think was the first ever dog in space. Great game, Rated 10/10
Please try my game as well and let me know what you though of it in the comments section and be sure to rate it as well :D
