It was a game that was a bit challenging at first. But once I figured out the logic what to do to take less damage and what to collect early on to make progress easier it became a game that was easy to play. Well done. (Rated)

Thank you very much, it's certainly a challenge, the player always has something to do. I appreciate it!

I really liked the whole gameplay loop! But it did seem like the aim of the towers can be pretty bad as they often would completely miss the targets?  But I do love the idea of always having to decide between healing or collecting more scrap. I also think I ran into a bug where when I restarted after failing I still was carrying uranium from the last round but COULDN'T deposit it soooo I had to reload the page. Great work overall though and really polished menus too!

I definitely need to fix the bugs, thanks for the feedback, appreciate it!

I love it! tower defense with the twist that you also have to keep healing! I love the sounds and art, though I think this is an example of over polish. the menu and settings and dialogue (the story thing at the start) are waay too polished compared to the feel of the actual game. I just think you could have allocated your time better to make an even BETTER gameplay loop because it’s already GOOD. great entry!

Wow what a game, really kept me busy awesome job! Although if you lose while holding an item and retry you can’t salvage anything nor can you deposit anything. Overall I had fun playing it. Just that bug.

Developer(+1)

Yes, I will fix that, thank you so much for playing it!

I’m not the best tower defense player, but I really enjoyed this one, mainly because it keeps you constantly active—though it is quite challenging.

Developer

glad you enjoy it, thank you!

The game is really good, and although the art style is simple, I really like it. It's effective and fits the game well. This game has a lot of potential. Maybe you could add an upgrade system between waves, like being able to pick up boxes faster or making the turrets shoot faster. Excellent work!

Developer

I will defenitely consider that, thank you for the feedback!

Loved the character and animations! The game is a bit challenging but still fun. Great job on the UI and the dialogue.

Developer

Thank you so much!

Really fun! Definitely a bit too hard, though, towers missing almost every hit when they’re not aligned with the enemy is tough. But the concept is really good, and overall it’s a fun game!

Check out my game if you get a chance!

Developer

i actually came back to this game 3 times XD
cant get past wave 7

During balancing the game was too easy and I went to the opposite extreme... it’s certainly a challenge, but I wouldn’t say it’s impossible (tower placement matters)
