Nice game ! The aesthetic is so dope ! The concept is simple but super efficient !

I just found it unclear and too difficult for me. I died 3 or 4 times before I understood I should not build any structure before 1st wave (I thought at first that basic zombies were just workers, and that I needed the cemetery to build warriors), and after that I felt that structures were rarely worth it.

But I could still feel the potential of the game, and it was still really fun ! GGs !

This is super neat! I love the... I guess you could call it a halftone/magazine page look? The whole game looks like I'm playing it in an issue of EGM from back in the day and that is super cool! I think I'm just building structures too early on or something, because once I do I get wrecked, regardless of if it's Round 1 or Round 5. But that did not stop me from really enjoying what's on offer here. Great job!

Thanks! Currently the game is a bit on the difficult side, we might need to tone it down a notch XD

I feel that. Mine had some atrocious math on my part that made it impossible to get past level 2. Serves me right. 😅

Heck yeah, more games about goblins. We love to see it.

This was fun, it felt like a ‘90s strategy PC game. I agree with the other comment, the bomb-goblin wave (bomblin?) felt like a huge step up in difficulty, they just wrecked everything I had made. I would have loved to see your main tower having a light attack, just so you don’t automatically lose if the enemy has 1-2 goblins left.

Took me a sec to understand Z and B and how I get them but after I did, it was actually fun. The graphics look really cool and unique to anything else I have seen here. It is definitely difficult and took me a while to get pasts the bomb people. I also struggled to get the spells since I couldnt rack up enough blood and people to keep myself safe
