Cool game and very good idea!

10/10 game! The concept is great, and the game feels super polished! I love the pixel arts and I'm amazed by the animations! The idea of turning clowns into unhappy workers is so funny! A very seriously made serious game!

Great concept and very polished! A lot of potential here. I got some issues by buying and selling stuff (i got the amount to spend but was unable to place things). Overall great job

Thanks for playing! Without more detail I can't tell if what you're describing is a bug or not as there are a couple of scenarios in which you aren't allowed to place certain buildings. All of those should trigger a message from the supervisor character in the bottom right. Did you get a message or was it just not working?

I'm sure that was a bug, was at the second wave of the first level (after tutorial ends) so pretty soon

I like that its a tower defense game instead of a factorio like game, and its well made so its a great game

looks very polished and coherent, good job! Love tower defense games

Really cool game!
Discovered a potential bug in the second level with book traps. You can bascially spawn books before starting the wave and those books will not disappear.
Besides that I only had a few issues with figuring out the tutorial text as the important ifos aren't highlighted and the font was a bit confusing to me. But that's a me problem.

Besides, when I got the hang of it the game was really fun and I would play more!
Played really well. Well done ^^

Thanks for the nice comment! Also thanks for the bug report, although I sadly couldn't replicate it.

That was cool! It was fun strategizing which areas to fill out with towers.

really interesting tower defence game!

just really fiddley mechanics, but other than that, it was really fun!

I really love the use of gears for a tower defense game! The graphics look really nice, but the clown sounds do get old after a bit and some music could be nice. I did notice sometimes that in the top right it would say `@Node2D@<a number>` (seems to be after you die or finish a wave). The game was fun and fits the theme great!

Interesting use of gears in a Tower Defense!

I love this and the game is polished and fully corresponds to the theme of the jam

A really interesting tower defense game with a cool gimmick, all weapon have an use case and it's fun trying to figure out how to place the towers to deal with the levels mechanics. Also the speakers do be speaking 🔥🔥

Submitted(+1)

Really fun little tower defense game! Loved the sound effects and the theme. I had a hard time figuring out what the radio tower did. I *think* it was hurting enemies in an area around it, but I’m not totally sure. Some way to easily clear up what exactly the towers do  would be a nice addition.

Developer

Glad you liked it! We originally had an indicator for the aoe of that tower but didn't want to put it in the game until we were sure we had the radius finalized. I think we all collectively forgot about doing that on the last days

This was fun! The speaker was my absolute favorite bit. The second I placed it down I got "EAT THE POOR" 10/10

my only critique would be the sounds. The clown noises get old after a bit

Loved the spin on tower defence, making the player get involved is a great mix up to the usual

i didnt understand how to use the Controls 

the art style is really cool though i really liked that 

Developer

How so?  I thought our control scheme was pretty standard.
