Junk 4 Slimes

co-authored: @charlock25
Place towers to defend your carrier and its rovers while they collect the crystals necessary to power your escape from a slime riddled cavern, but be warned, when you advance, the slimes take your old tech!

Junk 4 Slimes is a tower defense game where the enemy takes your abandoned old tech, aka your junk, and use it against you as you progress through the cavern. Placing too many turrets means you can’t afford to move on, while not placing enough can leave both your rovers and carrier vulnerable to the slime’s attacks, so spend your resources wisely to survive.

Really interesting take on the plants vs zombies style tower defense game! I totally got wrecked by all my old towers xD. I wish there was a clearer indicator of how many crystals I needed to start the engine. I feel like it's most beneficial to kind of farm the first stage as long as possible to cache a lot of crystals to advance more.

A very fun game. It’s hard if you don’t farm at the beginning, but overall, I find it well-balanced. I just don’t understand how i manage to start engine.

I really enjoyed how the slimes took the machines with them. It really made me think about how much stuff I actually need. Overall, fun game!!!!

A nice creative take on the theme "old tech" where the enemies use your old tech from the previous level. The art is really nice.

very neat plants vs zombies style mixup TD game! I had a lot of fun trying to figure out the best configuration for my towers! Fun entry.

Interesting idea, especially having the slimes use your abandoned turrets against you! However, the wait before moving to the next area felt too long. I couldn't tell when the “Start Engine” button would become available—a progress bar or a clear indicator of what was still needed would help.
I'd also appreciate 2× and 3× speed options to reduce the waiting. Being able to upgrade both the resource-gathering robots and the defensive units would be a nice addition too!

I really enjoyed the tactical challenge of having to balance aggressive tower placement with the need to keep moving through the cavern. It forces a genuinely interesting choice about how much risk you're willing to take with your fleet. Great concept overall!

Really cool twist on tower defense! I love the idea of enemies using your abandoned towers against you. It adds an interesting layer of strategy and makes every decision matter.
