Hex based tower defense made entirely from emojis.
You kill enemies and your king collects the loot and resources.

Some details with controls and UI. I had to scale the game to the size of the page in last hour.
My first game jam entry.

Overall a great entry, a lot of polish for 48 hours. Really quite enjoyed this!

Did have a few issues with the UI not seeming to reflect my selections and probably being stupid but couldn't figure out how to rotate.

Making a game with emojis is a funny idea :D As a Hex games lover, that one is great :) Thanks for your submission

Nice concept!

building an upgradable tower defense in 48 hours is quite a nice challenges, you have a lot of content and quite a polished look.
The Ui is quite unresponsive, and I am a bit confuse why I can upgrade some building and not some other

Overall great entry!

an interesting take on the theme, very polished, a tutorial would be good.

there's so much going on here :dizzy_face:

Also! For a Compo submission, it's required that you post your source code. Do you have it available somewhere?

The game is single html, the source code is already in the game page, but I can upload it somewhere

It's strange — there's a lot of content, but the main game loop isn't finished and there's no tutorial. Rotation is mentioned in the UI message, but it's not implemented in the game. Also, why does the window resize cause problems if the game was made for a jam and is supposed to be in horizontal format?

What engine are you using? Do you have the project on GitHub or anywhere else? It feels like some kind of 'vibe code' project.

Mini tower defense game! But it seems like there are a bit too many enemies; the king only lasted until the third round :)

I really enjoyed playing this. It was satisfying to watch all cute emojis moving around the map. Very polished and enough contents for 72h. Good job!
