However, if most of your assets come from external websites, you should opt out of the Graphics category ...
The idea is pretty cool i ended up playing a few rounds ;)
Humans are just the WORST arent they :D
good job!! <3
Very well done across the board!
The game was freezing for few frames, specially when starting it, but i'm okay with that.
I like the entire package together, well done!
5/5 start on all aspects btw!

The graphics are cool, as well as sound. Good job!
Definitely worth giving it more depth.
Like the concept and thetake on the tower defense genre. The art style is really fitting as well.
You should take this further.
Keep it up man, very good idea!
Ps.: the effect following my cursor sometimes covered a lot of my screen, and it was a bit annoying :laughing:
Great job.
It would have been nice to be able to zoom in to see the details and zoom out to see the whole map. Also, it gets a bit repetitive after a while.
Oh, and also, there is a little bug at the end : when your blue tree dies, you can keep playing, as long as you kill all the monsters during the wave ^^
Otherwise, I can just say that you did a really, really good job! Thank you for this cool game!
Wonderful work.
Your game gives an impression that it finished product. I like graphics and ent-deer design, very atmospheric. Music and gameplay at a high level too. Good job.
The theme of the game is really important and it's a way to show how humans are bad for the planet.
Quite original mechanics in this game too. It's a pretty different take on the tower defense genre. Only thing I wish for is some more variety as it does get pretty repetitive for its playtime. But it's a game jam so what you got done is already really impressive!
I liked the look of the game but I'm really glad that you had those graphics options in there because even though I have a fairly powerful machine, it lagged like hell with the standard settings. Even with low settings it was still a bit sluggish but at least playable.
