Looks like I ran into the same glitches that some others found, but the core concept is actually really clever and fun! I'd quite happily sink a few hours into a fixed-up and polished release, as long as you add a fast forward button :D

as others mentioned, it seems like you can just put down infinite towers. the chain reaction mechanic is REALLY fun, and if designed to be a bit more balanced (instead of shoot once and win) could lend itself to a really fun game!!

this is a cool idea, and the audio/visuals are good... I was able to almost immediately make infinite loops to beat any level, which was fun, but I'm guessing not what you intended.  I was able to place towers infinitely by selecting tower 1, then tower 2, then tower 1 again, etc.

It’s obviously a little rough, but I think the idea of creating bullet patterns through chain reactions like this is really strong. Hope you continue working on this :)

getting a "memory access out of bounds" error message when trying to play it. I see you put down this was a small early draft not complete yet though so probably makes sense. Good work on getting something worked on and submitted though! Like the model/artwork you have featured at the very least :D

It's a very fun game! While it's somewhat easy to get a lot of progress in, it feels like a sandbox for bullet patterns in a way. It's really fun to just place a bunch of towers to make a setting where you can't lose. Great work!

Hey, I tried opening but got "memory access out of bounds"

I get a memory access out of bounds error :(

Let me know if you ever get it up and running, it looks interesting!
