This game is exceptional for a Game Jam entry. It instantly became my favorite game of the GMTK Game Jam.
The "Countdown" theme is executed perfectly, and the overall presentation is outstanding. The team absolutely deserves to be featured in the Game Jam recap video.
Give it a try, you'll be convinced within minutes.
Really nice game, nice polish and nice onboarding. Music and SFX are really nice, visuals too. The idea works perfectly
Pretty nice game! Love the art and sfx! The gameplay feels very good for a turnbased tower defense game. Well done!
Very solid game! I really like the button sfx when you hover over them.
Using turns as a currency in order to place units lends itself extremely well to this strategic gameplay. The art and music are also excellent! Fantastic work on this game!
this game is really cool, never imagined a tower defense game type on a "Count Down" theme, really well done, its just bit confusing until you hover on the enemies to see there path! and this is another level design
Really nice game, I really liked it and its very well polished like it just launched on Steam!
Well done and congrats for the teamwork!
This game is so polished and has so much stuff in it... Did you really make it during the jam? Feels like a demo for an actual game
i love tower defences so i loved this- its satisfying when a tower setup works out on the first try and i think it has a lot of potential for a more developed game in the future. the balance seemed pretty strange, with the 'bomb throwing tower' easily outclassing every other tower, and some i struggle to see any point in using unless its the only option you're given for the level. overall its a fun game !
A very interesting mix of puzzle game and tower defense!! Well done!!
Amazing art and sound. The mechanic is interesting.
The way enemy move is a little bit confusing for me. The zigzag path and the enemy moving two times are making things harder to plan but not in a fun way imo. I suppose that without it levels are too straight forward, but I believe enemy pathing should be very clear, complexity could come from some combo between turrets, or environment effects or something like that.
Anyway, congrats on this very well made entry!
omg what a gem! So polished, such nice sounds, love the sprites I always feel like: Just gotta try one more round to get those pesky 2 little bugs dead that ruined my run with their very last move.. Such a good game! :3 Well done!
A fun and creative use of the theme, executed perfectly and at a super high level of polish! Y'all are amazing!!
Thank you so much Slime!! :)
I love it! Nothing to say, just love it! From art style to turn based mechanic! For me one of the best entries!

Incredible entry. Everything felt polished and finished and was just super fun to play. A very nice take on a tower defense game. I enjoyed my time with it a lot!
Crazy polished and pleasant game. Like this is a full on game that could be on Cool Math and I wouldn't bat an eye. Had fun with the last level even if it took me a few attempts. Great work Ninesliced (also dang, 4 programmers? y'all've gotta be well versed in eachother's code because that sounds crazy :P)
Verry clever game, I would love to see more of it with more monkeys more baddies and more levels!! Cute little puzzler and I'm glad to have played it, great entry!
Nice mix of puzzle and tower defense! It reminded me a lot of Into the Breach, was that an inspiration at all?
All the sprites are so great but I love the monkeys especially. And the music track too… great game all around!
I really like how its a tower defense like game that I actually enjoy! Great job!
