I gave up after i spent 50 on green gas and i fckd up the aim on it :D Overall good entry, all the graphics felt fitting together well, audio a bit lacking, the placing mechanic took a bit time to get used to and also i had a bit harder start without knowing what means what
Great art and visuals! but i don't seem to lose in the web build. the attacking ghosts are continually hitting my statues and the game never ends. Also the right mouse click doesn't work in your webbuild. Netherless fun entry and once again great visuals and concept!
I have a really hard time understanding what's going on. The first time I played, it wasn't obvious which things on the screen were clickable, or even which side I was on. Eventually I figured out how to summon spells, but I don't really get what the difference between any of them is. The art and animations are really cool though.
Я не смог дождаться смерти. Мне стало скучно ... Прикольная идея. Но не хватило развития и скорости трупов. Плюс или это баг или я не знаю, я так и не смог умереть. Хотя в определенный момент просто бросил ставить ловушки.
Interesting idea, summoning protective/damaging stuff. But I didn't see the point. Heads of the 3 protectors went down but I'm basically immortal (web version). I can't see anywhere what is actually the goal of this game.
WOW I'm constantly impressed by what you make! The graphics are so polished, I wish I had those art skills! I love the sound/music as well. I'm a fan of the tower defense mechanic, play cards to defend, collect bones, play more cards!
The game is actually quite cool. It's fun, it has good pace, quite good art and okay sound. It is better than most things I played today and it defensively deserves much more attention than it currently gets. P.S. I wish it was more challenging, since currently poor performance is the main enemy
For some reason it doesn't work in my Firefox, had to play it on Edge...
Also, when you click the replay button, your bones count is not reset to the initial 30. Don't know if it's on purpose, but that can be a huge handicap if you finish a game with only 1 or 2 bones.
Cool entry! Feel like it needs some balancing, also the bones don't reset after you die which seems like a bug. Music and graphics are really good. Great work!
A very nice game, but I was super confused by the UI in the beginning. I thought the cards in front were some sort of spells you can cast, while they are just an indicator for what spells you currently have active...
For anyone else struggling with the controls: the main control area is actually the row of spells on the right. The first click selects the spell, then a second click on the main play area selects the radius with which to deploy it. Once deployed, the spell will show up as a card in the middle - this area is mostly just an indicator of how much is left of the spell (color fades to gray when it's about to run out), but you can also right-click the cards to dismiss the spell and make room for a new one.
Ignoring the UX issues, the graphics are actually very nice and stylish. A straightforward idea with a lot of polish, well done!
Ok that was fun. I wasn't sure exactly what to do in the beginning but after click around and a few trys later I became immortal and had to let them kill me to see my score lol. I think the difficulty stops increasing after a certain point and for an endless game like this, maybe the difficulty should keep increasing. I had fun overall though getting to the immortal state. Nice art, sound and music very polished feeling.
This plays pretty well. I don't think I quite understand all the systems still, but it is defiantly something different.
As stated, onboarding definitely seems to be the main issue. In game is ideal, but text and/or pictures on the game/itch page is also always an option (and usually a lot faster to do).
I'm a bit curious how a fuller game based on this would look like. Probably combining some permanent structures or stat buffs with the temporary spells. Probably some variance in enemies to try to force different and adapting defenses.
@zliebowitz Thanks for yor feedback =) Yep, several enemies types. For now you will notice that some enemies a little bigger then others coz they have more health. Also @adui 's brain can draw a lot of freaky creatures =)
Great game overall, amazing graphics and the tune is very nice
One issue, which is very easy to solve: the UI should deliver a better message to the user what they can and cannot build, maybe if you try to click on a summon while you have 3 active a message pops up
tl;dr instructions are lacking, but the rest is solid work
I click on your (awesome) art with the play button, then I'm stuck on a empty screen, then if I click on the empty screen, it shows me again the play button.
Oh this is a very nice one! From what I've played so far it's a pretty unique take on tower defense games with some decent polish! I was confused at first but quickly grasped it and enjoyed it a lot! The music set the mood perfectly and acted as a nice stressor. Very nice job guys!
I'm getting the same issue as @deformhead on Firefox. When I run it in Brave, I can start the game, but clicking the card to the right makes the whole screen go blank.
Hard game, but fun! I really enjoyed this take on tower defence and will come back to it later to try to push some scores! Graphics are really great as well, very polished!
The game has one of the most distinctive art style/aesthetics I've encountered so far in LD55. Gameplay is surprisingly rich with the provided shapes and weapons which leave room for tons of experimentation in each run. The music fits the mood nicely. Not a major issue for a jam game but some sort of tutorial could be nice. Great job!
Graphics and overall presentation are great, and the gameplay is engaging. I just think the difficulty curve is a bit steep. If you adjust the difficulty a bit, I think this would be a really fun TD.

8450 bones! Can you beat this? @adui
@widerhold I will check right click ones again. Thanks!
Hard to learn at start but after that it's smooth

Have a nice Jam!

Great work!
I have a screen of Device Pixel Ratio 2, just in case (resolution of 3000x2000)
