Game description

\n

Defend the city from the attackers! Recruit soldiers, and build various buildings to succeed.

\n

You have two resources: gold and food.\nYou need gold to recruit soldiers, build buildings, and purchase upgrades.\nYou need food to keep your soldiers alive. If you run out of food, your soldiers will start losing health.

\n

Your goal is to defend the castle, which is the main building of the city. If the enemy destroys it, you lose.

\n

The soldiers start at the castle, and walk towards the enemy. The enemy soldiers are coming from outside the city. When the friendly and enemy soldiers are close to each other, they’ll fight.

\n

Buildings

\n\n

Controls

\n\n

To build, select a building (bottom left), then click on the ground where you want to build it.

A well presented development on the tower defence genre. Good to see the possibilities despite it being over budget. Nice work.

Whoa, this is fantastic result for 18kb! I surprised that there are animations and so many different models and textures.

Such a shame that you went over the limit. I feel like you could’ve gotten it down by cutting some content.

\n

I only needed houses and archer towers to clear all the levels.\nI spam houses in the beginning and then spam a bunch of towers.

\n

Otherwise it’s a fun game.

A fun game to play, the graphics and sounds were both really good.

\n

Would be good to see some activity, like people or something.

\n

Maybe a button to speed things up so you can buy stuff to build better places with would be good.

Great game.\nNot super balanced, but with a lot of opportunities.

This is a fun, well made tower-defense game! I enjoy upgrading the building and placing them out. Great game!
