Really fun roguelike!! I drew some art of the main character :)

Developer(+1)

WOW, I love it!!  I saw your comment history and It’s so cool that you’ve been making art of the 3TG submissions!

Can we use this art in our thumbnail/banner? Of course, we’ll credit you on the main page.

THIS IS REALLY FUN!!! the nightmare sprites are super cute and the core gameplay is super intuitive! it’s definitely something i could see myself spinning up and losing a lot of time to when i have a few minutes to spare :P

a couple of things i think could improve the experience:

  • it would be really helpful to have an audio and or visual cue when you take damage
  • a gauge or indicator to see how many nightmares you have to use as ammo

i also think the tower defence aspect of the game was a little confusing? I didn’t realise that system was there until I read the description. i really like the idea of it, but it feels difficult to interact with, given how much you move around. and accidentally selecting a tower option could mess you up since it prevents you from using your vaccuum abilities in favour of doing a tower action. it felt easier to me to just run around and melee the guys myself.

that being said, slots is a godtier feature i love it so much. and the music is absolutely adorable, was it made in-house?? extremely fun game ^^

Glad you enjoyed the game!

Yeah, the core concept is solid, but we couldn’t spend more time developing it, so it’s missing some proper feedback, game feel, and a few UI elements. We might continue working on it later on.

And I agree with you about the inclusion of the slot machine :D

Still, thank you so much for your kind words and your thorough review!
