Sound effects matched the thought of dropping goblins into a pit! The solider mechanic wasn't conveyed well enough though, maybe a indication that we've been hit that would of been good.

But love the concept!

that was fun, like peggle with falling monsters!

Nicely done!

nicely done, especially for a 10 hour effort.

Reminds me of The Price is Right (Plinko!) and Pinball. Very cool, I like it. :)

Really cleaver idea! I included it in part 7 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) youtu.be/Ly6pR3C_dVc

It's very good ! I like it !
It reminds me all the time I spent on Shenmue mini game Lucky Hit

I would not have thought that plinko and tower defense would work out so well together. It was fun, I just wish there was more variety.

Extreme BIEBER!

Fun little game.

Nice idea, I think it could do quite well on a mobile device with revamped graphics and a little more diversity.

Nicely done! Some escalation would have kept me playing that for hours :).

More fun than I expected once it got going. Seems like a lot of potential here for a twist on a peggle-style game.

Solid all across. This was actually surprisingly fun considering how simple a concept. Wished there was increasing difficulty as the game went on, but in 10 hours, this is pretty impressive!

Finished! Hehe. It's an interesting idea and cool gameplay. The physics/mechanic reminds me of a game that I had on my childhood. And you did a nice work considering how much time you had to make it :)

Who doesn't love Plinko. Very original mechanic to apply to the theme. Nice work!

I liked it, it reminded me of some TV games i enjoyed watching when i was a kid :P
loved the minimalist sound and the music too :)

It is sad you didn't put the "music" section, i thought it was nice! :)

Well done, could be made into more!
