I found it kinda funny that my primary strategy was to summon smaller animals in front of me to act as meatshields so the towers didn't shoot me. I also did not get the popups with the stats for each animal, but it was simple enough to deduce some things about them just from playing: the Bear is slow with high defense, the Bird is fast with low defense, and the Fox and Wolf are in between. That said, it wasn't exactly clear to me why I should choose one animal over another at any time. I guess part of this is because I don't know what the towers do, or how they affect the animals differently. For instance, how does being an Air animal affect the Bird differently from the other animals? Does it dodge shots more easily? Can some towers not reach it? I did figure out that the yellow towers *only* shoot the Bird, but I don't see a difference between the red, green, and blue towers. If some of this information was clearer, it might be easier to form a strategy."},{"author_name":"nihilaleph","author_uid":"49665","time":"Apr 21, 2016 @ 4:18pm","epoch":1461255180,"text":"Nice concept!

Gameplay-wise it wasn't really communicated well enough which of the different creatures should be chosen to counter the towers, and I'm not sure if there's much reason to have the summon button. It seems like the best idea is just to summon as much as possible, so it could just be automatic.
