The first time I started really zoomed in somehow and was mega confused until I read the directions below the game. I think if I could move the camera around that would be good and holding left mouse button would save my finger a bit! Cool game guys!

Developer

Moving camera around might be a good idea, we considered it and discussed it but went with some simplifications for the jam (as @FujiG is learning programming in Godot and I wanted to mainly learn how to model, texture and  and rig stuff in Blender), we will probably add that post-jam as an exercise  in trigonometry calculations for camera movement :) I wonder why it started zoom in however, as it should start zoomed out... Maybe adding a control to show zoom level (maybe even a minimap on higher zoom levels) would make it more readable... Maybe we'll experiment with it a bit post-jam. As well ass with holding the LMB for constant shooting from the main tower/rocket (that started as an idea that was supposed to be just an addon to strategy element of placing and configuring towers, yet ended up being the core of gameplay loop). Thanks for your feedback!

Cool tower defense! I might be biased cause I like this genre.

Very nice soundfx and music.

For any nitpicks, idk if that would complicate much, or if it is against the design, but holding LPM for continous fire would be cool.

Developer

Thanks for playing and for feedback! It is good idea, I was not thinking about it, but @FujiG was considering it actually and we might add it in post-jam update, glad to hear some constructive feedback :)

Fun time! But why does it not rotate? Why does SPACE not fire my laser!? NOOO! Mah leff mouse buddon!!

Did you maybe forget to update the how to play screen?

Developer

Thanks for playing it! Yep, as you can see I submitted it 8 seconds before deadline, and it is not exactly the build I wanted to submit (I notice like 1 minute before the deadline that it's almost end of time, this one lacks armature in models so they're not animated, and some gui changes did not get uploaded - including the unfortunate "how to play" and partially "credits" screens)... I'll try to open a ticket on discord after work today to see if they allow me to update at least this screen so it wouldn't confuse people

I think we’ve all been there sweating the deadline on one game or another.
