Crush the Castle is a battle arena where you play as the king of the castle during a war. Protect your citizens, grab some cannon balls and take out the enemy castle.

Controls:
Move - WASD
Select - Left Mouse Button
Fire Cannon - Right Mouse Button
Zoom - C
Pause - Escape
Jump - Space

Notes:
-The pause menu is a little weird where the cursor can get stuck in the overlay, just pressing escape should fix it.
-Only the Windows build has been tested.
-This game uses Unity's High Definition Render Pipeline so there isn't a WebGL build option.

You cant shoot with the gun in the right tower, I tried it way to long. The Movement is a little bit to slow. But it's a funny game idea and I had some fun with it after I got a hang of it.

Camera movement is a bit too fast and cant be adjusted. I got motion sick after a few minutes... One of cannons is not working. Also I found it quite tiring to run up the tower every time i run out of balls (stairs are long and it is easy to fall down). I liked overall idea of castle battle, shooting cannons and stuff, but things I mentioned stop me from fully enjoying the game. Anyway, I am looking forward to see some enhanced post LD version of this game, and I would give it one more try for sure!

Congratulations finishing the jam! Game is little bit buggy, but concept is pretty fun! I like it

Interesting concept! I felt the reloading of the cannon balls was too boring and the player movement a little sluggish, but it was fun destroying the other castle walls. Great work overall!
