In purple legion you must defend yourself against a legion of little purple creatures ! If one of them reach the other side of the map, it's game over !

Every entities will perform an action every 10 seconds at the end of the timer at the top of the screen

To defend yourself you have at the beginning acces to a small fireball that deal 1 damage in selected tile, when you manage to kill ennemies, you earn experience and you advance in the levels, at each new level you can choose either a new ability or to enhance one of your existing ones (you'll have two choices every time).

You simply need to clic on the spell you want to cast and then on the case. You can also leave shift pressed to continously use a spell until you don't have any more use for the turn.

The game is endless, try to survive as long as you can !

good game! the different spells are nice, but having to click on the spell card then on the grid cell to place it can be a bit tedious

I like it quite a bit! :) Great take on the theme, easy to understand and play but difficult for an old guy like me to master haha :)

@amarokczukay You can use maj and use more than one if you have a bunch of spell in stock. Didn't had time to do a player feedback on this one.

Very enjoyable game! Quick to learn and play. I liked the lighthearted music. I would have appreciated larger and easier to read text. As it was I had trouble reading the text and figuring out what each thing, which slowed down my gameplay.

Super fun! Got pretty hectic in a good way at the end.

Very hectic and intense! This is an interesting concept, but I think the main takeaway from this game is why most tower defense games are automated! Clicking back and forth is quite laborious and difficult to do tactically. That being said, I found this game surprisingly compelling. Made it to level 38 on a second attempt. Nice job.

I like the concept and mechanics but it's a little bit too slow. I think it would be funnier to play if enemies and weapons moves faster

I spent a good 20 minutes playing this! Great simple fun, has some balance issues (sun fireballs OP), music is nice, overall good vibe and great entry :)

@lunkums Well it IS the power of the sun after all ^^ . But yeah this kind of power with this small of map and slow ennemy is a bit strong

I liked it! It ramped up nicely and adhered to the theme in an interesting way. Nice work!

An interesting way of applying the theme, made something that would otherwise be a relaxing puzzle-like game into something hectic and sweaty. :sweat_smile: By the end, I was facing down a horde of full board of purple dudes, and the game was pretty lagged... so I died. Made it to level 35 tho! I definitely missed some clarity in what upgrades were doing for specific cards, and by the end, I just wanted to be able to cast my spells as quickly as possible, so the modal window just got in the way. A very fine entry, indeed! :tada:

Loved it! Starts out looking easy, but very quickly got frantic. Well done!

Fun game! The concept works, I have to admit I got hooked.

But I think the game could be paused when choosing upgrades, and sometimes selecting cards is bit buggy, you have to click multiple times to make it work.

The gameplay was kinda frantic. I feel like the spell casting could have been improved in some way. Maybe short cuts? Overall tho it was fun to play the graphics were a little odd in the menu but werent distracting in gameplay. I did enjoy the game and actually lasted quite a while.

You have an interesting approach of the theme and I truly love purpleeee

Chill little game. The level up window is a little anoying as you don't really have a lot of time to place your fire balls and the window is gettin gin the way constantly when you try to place stuff.:D
But no big deal overall i had a lot of fun. Good job. Good entry.
