I did it, I beat the final boss on the fourth try! My initial strategy of maximizing damage didn't work out, for the winning round I maximized healing upgrades for the different fields, that did the trick! It was still close though, the final boss had me down to the last hit as well. Nailbiting finale!

So yeah, very good game! Great creative take on the countdown theme, literally defeating the enemy with the clock hand! I like the game design here a lot, with the enemies moving at different speeds it was really a puzzle how to advance safely, especially when you don't have the damage spots that take care of them for you. There was some real strategy involved in when to advance and maybe just tanking a hit in favor of advancing faster, I like that. Art is great as well, I like the cute critters and how much the clock hand enjoys its spiking, I thought those animations were neat. And of course the audio design, matching it all to the gameplay, that really gets you into the groove. Great job all around, very well done!

Very creative, even with such a simple mechanic there's a fair amount of complexity. I'm glad the enemy movement patterns start including ones that move multiple spaces because in the early levels you can spam the back button to always take out every enemy. That doesn't remain the case after a few rounds, which makes it kinda an exploit you can only make use of in the early game and then you're forced to abandon it, which is neat.

There's also so much polish! All the smooth gliding UI elements and the enemy animations and extra background details, it's all great. And the music's perfect, the clock ticking being incorporated into the music sounds so good.

very cute and creative concept! Some more roguelike elements would make this even better, whether it's more passive abilities or something active like rewinding more than one second or something. I loved the artwork though and it was satisfying to have the ticking line up with the gameplay

The game is really cool and creative the art and sound is great it just is a bit hard (I can not really be talking but whatever)

I found the controls to be confusing? It seems like if you mess up even slightly you just get swarmed quick. Still fun and cool idea, love the theming and style! 

i see ur video on tiktok! the game was really great, good art,good music, really addicting!

Really beautiful art and audio! Was initially a bit confused as to why sometimes spacebar would work and sometimes it wouldn't, but I understood it after a few goes.

great work, definitely one of my favorites this game jam

This was a really amazing game - I've never played anything like it, and I really thought that the artwork and the gameplay really complemented each other very well. Great work!

The artstyle was super charming. I loved the countdown being formed by stars. Very nice touch. I was a bit confused on how to properly deal with each enemy type and it felt like I was brute forcing it at times but overall amazing work.

The artwork for this game was incredible! I also really liked this spin on a tower defense game! Nice job!!

Fun and really satisfying game! The art and sound effects were really nice. One heads up I lost, I think, after a while of playing and I had both the win message and the lose message on my screen. Otherwise very well made and polished game, the music was a banger too!

why this game has so few ratings????? this is a masterpiece! i played it for an hour!!!

Really really well done, the artwork and the rythm is fantastic!!!! I love it!

very cool game! i enjoyed this very much and it has cool features!

Dope!

Really creative gameplay! Also, everything feels very cohesive, and the sound design especially really caught my attention because of how satisfying the game sounds. 

I had a hard time getting past Day 6 or so. Because the enemies never stop spawning, choosing between defeating them to not take damage or advancing the clock felt very hard to me, though I'm not sure if was missing something strategically.

Overall though, great game!

such a cool concept and a fun twist on the typical tower-defense-game! a bit of a learning curve, but so pretty and so much fun to play!!! the f***ing worms always get me 

very cool game
