Creep Arena by jeffjk
Creep Arena is a classic arcade style side-view arena in the mold of Mario Bros. or Donkey Kong, but with the modern twist of tower defense.
EDIT
-Cash counter was not resetting with the level, rendering the game unwinnable after a few rounds! I added the reset action.

Also, the protagonist looks like Dr. Phage from Awful Hospital and that terrifies me.
It seems that if you put a mine on the bottom floor and hide behind the spawners there's no way for them to get to you.
I'd also love for the text to be bigger, it took me a while to figure out how much everything cost.
I also agree that the font should pop more. I found the keys by hitting random buttons before I noticed the text!
I like the simple music and graphics. Overall this is nice!
This game was tight. A great little arcade game with a perfeclty frustrating level of challenge.
Only problem (besides that I can't stop the song while writing this comment) is that I think I broke it. If you place the cheap bombs in the center platform at the right timing you can just stand there in infinite explosions and collect the coins as the guys fall into the explosions. I screwed it up but feel like I could have had an infinite run that way. Maybe not though.
Anyway, I really had a good time with this, great work!
