I thought I had the enemy surrounded, but it turned out that I needed to surround it with a space in between for the red gas. Once I figured that out, I found it much easier, but it definitely got more challenging, especially when those multiplying enemies came.

I liked the inversion on tower defense. Fun and very hectic when I died.

There's an interesting concept in this tower defense in real time. Care about the audio though, and some readability problems within each enemy capacity etc.. Good work nonetheless ^^

A pretty fun game you've made! There's a lot of enemy variety for a 48 hour game, and a good amount of gameplay variety too. It gets a bit easy after a while though (I ended up trying to amuse myself by filling the entire screen with slime, until enough enemies multiplied that the game started lagging alarmingly). The sound effects were a little harsh too, so either softening the edge on them or giving the player a mute button would be nice. A surprisingly good showing overall though, I hope you get more votes before judging ends!

Tower defense with an interesting mechanic :)
The game seems pretty easy going in terms of difficulty, but I could see the mechanic could be developed as flying enemies were introduced.

I think you should work more on this concept, since there are plenty of interesting directions to take this.

It's an itresting game, it does however require some explenation how to play and the sounds can get a bit repetetive.

Really fun and interesting game. I really liked the gameplay. I though it was too easy until some mega dude came and ran right through my defenses.
