PIXELTRON by GameDevExtreme
Viruses are attacking the pixels of your screen, since nobody likes dead pixels, you are in a quest to defend the pixels.
Build robots to defend your screen! the robots will fight the viruses and repair pixels. There are three types of robots: GunBot RepairBot and NormalBot, each have there strengths and weaknesses, so spend your money wisely.
Speaking about money, you can earn some by repairing the dead pixels, and spend it on robots.
This is the only game(I think) on ludum dare 31 that is actually physically ON one screen.
(The pixels are the tiles on the floor, dead pixels are the dark tiles and working pixels are white, the viruses are the purple blub, the ball with guns and a helmet, and the thing with the brain, by entering the shop, you can but robots to fight them)
WASD to walk, shift to sprint, and E to open shop menu.

Other than that, really fun game!
Though, after I played it for a few minutes, I wasn't quite sure if I was doing things correctly (or at all!) due to a lack of player feedback. :( There aren't any sound cues, or explosions, or visual things that let you know you're doing things correctly. You kinda just put down the robots and hope they do the right things.
Keep the base idea, though. :) It's a good one!
After a minute or two, I earned so much money that I couldn't spend it all, and the game was becoming slow
