Nice idea! I tried to cheese it with all the small skeletons I could summon, but I ended up having 1-2 towers left :D Wondering if there is a particular strategy that I could use :thinking:

@leorean Make good use of necromancer and clear the path for them.

Nice idea, the game is fun to play, also have to build a good strategy, i dont know if i can't hear sounds or if there are none in this case some sounds could've been a good add

Cool mini game. Some sort of balancing would be nice, as before I could figure out what exactly to do, i semi accidentally spawned whole bunch of archers and they kinda rushed through most of the stage :D

Ahh...a Reversed tower defence. My team created the exact same game XD Nice game btw. Love the skeleton images

Interesting little puzzle, I've seen a number of takes on a "reverse tower defense" this jam and this one I think is the most engaging so far.

I like the idea of a reverse tower defense game where you do the summoning as the player. Good job. I couldn't find a winning strategy but I tried!

I'm a huge fan of reverse TD so this was great! Love the swarm mechanics and stairs/walls.

nice game. liked the puzzle aspect of it. nicely designed at the right amount of difficulty imo.
I wish there was a win screen when it's over just as a little treat^^

Neat little game and unique twist on the theme. I like the different types of towers and finding the most optimal skeletons to use was fun. I wish there were sfx or music though, however the assets used look nice and suit the game well.

Really liked this game, though everything felt so small! Was hard to see any much detail. Could almost imagine this as like a stealth/raiding style game with some more direct interaction over the summoned units and maybe other guards/enemies walking around. Still, nice gameplay though.
