Nice concept! I feel like I could really enjoy a full game like this with some more detailed driving action. I got to a point where I just had so much money incoming that I could continually spam towers and enemies couldn't break through, until I just gave up. The style is fun too

Enjoyed playing this, fun and interesting design and concept! The car sounds were a bit interesting but other than that everything else was pretty solid!

@ragtagradical Thanks you for your comment.
So sorry about that the first version I didn't have enough time do the balance stuff.
I just upload a webGL version and it should be a little better now.

Really great concept. Satisfying popping the baddies. Trying to "Cooperate" with the other car led to some interesting gameplay.

Fun game. Loved the idea of ramming the cars into the snails

Cool concept! The art style is nice, and while the mechanics are simple, they work well.

It would be nice if the price of the defenses was on the icon. Also the camera moves in really weird ways and gets shaky sometimes, kinda made me feel sick.

it was a fun little game though! it was cool

Cool idea. I had some problems with the camera keeping player one on screen when you go too far from the tower, but apart from that it seems solid so far!

Really nice! I was a little confused what the towers did exactly, but a nice and interesting combination overall!

Not bad at all! It was pretty engaging to drive and drop the towers from the orbit. Lots of enemies, that's a plus. And nothing like bumping into your buddy!
Too difficult though, heh. Please try my game if you have time.

Nice concept, graphics were good. Didn't figure out what the third defense building did. Also, after I died the score still went up when my towers destroyed enemies.

I'm not used to tower defense games, but the driving side of the game brought me to play more than I thought!
I appreciate the graphics, and the camera movement is not that bad, it did not disturb me.
Once I got stuck after I lose and the main menu button had no effect, I had to refresh the page (web version, maybe the problem comes from here)
Great work!

Cool idea, and take on the theme! I enjoyed it but it got a bit chaotic with the camera. Could've needed some kind of acceleration adjustment with W/S for example, to increase precision if you'd like to take it to the next level. It's definitely a great idea!
