    The demo of this game was so fun, super cool of the dev to give you some keys to give away! For anyone wondering, the demo ran quite well on steam deck, so I'm assuming the same will be true of the full release.

    Reminds me of Cultris, back when LAN parties were real. Competitive tetris was one thing, but this little tower defense has a definite clash of clans (never played it), Glest, Warcraft 3 the Frozen Throne (which had tower defense) mixture of inspiration and a vector which I can truly appreciate in such a dark age for gaming. What a nice little light to add to some lucky viewers lives, thanks olexa 😊

  • @Igorious92
    @Igorious92 Місяць тому +7

    It was not bad run 😁
    You must think about tower priorities: area tower should kill small enemies at the beginning. Try to build a maze to give towers a second chance to hit.
    You definitely should place a block with coin run closer to battle, and change tower priority to the lowest HP.
    You should not upgrade towers with raw damage/speed if you have free space. At least, while you have no armored enemies.
    We need a victory screen after boss battle :)

    • @Zer0Perplexity
      @Zer0Perplexity 2 дні тому

      Yeah noticed that with the sniper tower, that should definitely be on highest hp priority so you don't waste its damage on overkilling.

  • @SleepingEra
    @SleepingEra Місяць тому +3

    I love this concept for a TD game especially with how the pathing works. I agree with the comment on it being anticlimactic. I usually like having a boss not just be a final boss for roguelikes, but rather give unique rewards. Bonus satisfaction value if it changes how you play.
