This reminds me of a tower defense game. Well done bro, with the graphics and game play as well.

This is an very nice game but there is some user experience design that can improve like there is no way that you will pass wave 3-4 from the first play without dying and upgrade and then have to start over from level 1 again.
As always: You delivered a fantastic game. Simple but addictive! You managed to boil the RTS genere down to its very basics and mixed in some rougelike and it simply works! Besides the gameplay, I liked especially the graphics and the sound effects. A few small things to improve:
- Somehow the additional units were not shown in the upgrades screen. I could click on them, but the assets were not shown. When I closed the fullscreen suddenly they appeared. During playing they were fully visible.
- This is a very small detail, but I still mention it :). The resource units sometimes overlap perfectly and then you think it is one unit instead of two. I was sometimes a bit confused why I bought 4 units but could only see 3.
Congratulations to this amazing entry! I think I played it much longer than I intended :).
Great and addictive Game! Cool mechanics and upgrades keep me playing.
I got to wave 20, but only then did I realize that I could unlock 2 more types of units, it would be nice to somehow highlight these slots, because if I hadn't accidentally hovered over them (they were invisible), I wouldn't have noticed them :).
Good game, addictive :).
It was fun, congratulations!
I really love this type of game! (ツ)ノ
The tutorial flow was so seamless—it was a great reference for me.
Amazing game dude!! But at start, to progress forward, you need to die at wave 2-3 like 2 times to get some upgrades and t push to wave 5 or 6 but after that, the game is amazing! The challenging difficulty curve and the pacing is fun and the soundtrack is cool too!! W game!
Really nice polish on this one, as always! Made it to wave 24 after maxing everything. I think pacing wise, you could allow the player to purchase upgrade between waves to speed up the first few rounds a lot. There's a softlock if you buy a unit after dying, causing two retry/upgrade popups to appear, but I'm very glad you're using localStorage!
Nice work! It's addictive, truly, and I like this "aha!" Very cool. The start is hard tho.
This is surprisingly addictive. Great work, I really dig the style and the feel of the game, It's very fluid and well put together and also beautiful; you get 5/5 stars from me.
Very cute game! The start is kind of rough because we can't do much but grind until we can unlock new robots. The graphics are great and the game is very well polished. Great job!
The controls and rules were easy to understand, so I got into the game right away! I also really liked the bright, colorful graphics and animations.
However, I’m not very good at this game, and no matter how many times I tried, my whole team got wiped out right at the start 💀
how to make this guy recover health?
This reminds me of the time when I played StarCraft and got defeated before I could even build a single ship lol.
nice game though
