I assume the character designs are placeholders, but the more I look at them, the more they grow on me! I really liked them (ツ)ノ

This one is really cool, reminds me a lot of those old flash games like Age of War. Really fun game and fits the theme quite nicely.

Had fun playing this. But I feel like the buttons were sorta stuck and had to click multiple times to perform actions (like summoning units or using the abilities like missile)

Thanks for playing! Yes the buttons are supposed to be performed with keyboard inputs. Try using the keyboard and it will function smoothly :)

Thank you for playing! I’m glad you had fun. Some of the bosses are meant to require a good strategy, but I probably need to tune the difficulty a bit more.

Thanks for making the game, it's fun, but my soldiers never reached the opposite tower :)

Thank you for playing! Yeah, I was worried the Hive Turret might be too strong, but after I designed and tested Skyfall, the game became much more beatable :)

Interesting idea. I really liked the energy vs scrap currencies so that one doesn't affect the other and you feel constrained which to buy and what you can afford. Spent quite a long time playing it but at one point it was just too much to stave off and died a few times. 

Good work!

Thank you for playing! I spent lots of time designing these elements and trying to balance the game. But some bosses' rounds really need good strategy and development to get through. I am glad you enjoyed this game :)

Nice simple concept. It's not really my genre, but it's quite engaging!
