Castle Siege

by fitret
Defend your catapults against the invading ships! Use WSAD or the arrow keys to move around the map, and hit Space or Enter to place your defenses. Pressing Tab will swap between building Castle Walls and Catapults. You get points for destroying enemy ships, the enemy gets points for destroying your catapults

Walls cost 10 Stone to build and 5 Stone to repair
Catapults cost 10 Wood to build and 5 Wood to repair
Shooting mountains gives you stone
Destroying ships gives you wood

Kinda hard and it took me a while to understand what was going on (even after reading the instructions).
Didn't like the fact that tab was auto-circling through the choices (and fast!) . Ok game.

I don't understand how to play this game. Better instructions would be good(try to explain the game to some other human in real life).

@SetTheBet thanks for the feedback! I changed the cursor implementation to be a bit easier - it now contextually switches to repair and aim, so you just have to swap between what you want to build.

@Ghen are you using the Web link or playing it in the Ludum Dare embedded frame?

My catapults kept missing, which made the game really hard. XD
The sprites could use some animation.
I don't have much else to say about the game... :/

A tad hard, but still fun!

Nice concept. I wasn't sure how to do better than the pirates - I tried building castles up and then catapults, but I always seemed to be losing.

It's hard, graphics are simple, but functional. I played yesterday too, and the controls are better now. Slower pace would be better.

I like the idea. The graphics are functional if not especially interesting, but they are far from ugly. Some sound would be nice, although I admit it would be quite hard to make a canon sound from scratch. I wish it was mouse controlled.
