Sometimes it is pretty hard to figure out how to time your spawns. But good work on tuning the cooldowns and shot rates\/range, it makes a solid impression!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, the music takes you right to the hearth, this would be a perfect game for a lonely evening with you tablet.

I've never seen a flipped tower defense game and this was done pretty well. I sometimes felt like I was hoping for 3 eyed monsters and clicking as much as I could between the selected options and that the game was lacking some strategy.

Well, at least, you command them.\r\n\r\nDeploy your monsters on the light areas of the map and watch them charge brainlessly at the castle. Good timing and the right tactics will lead you to the victory. Destroy all these castles!\r\n\r\nIn case you're really really stuck in a level, use \"w\" to win instantly. You can also use RIGHT and LEFT arrows to move freely between the levels (but that's cheating, of course).\r\n\r\nEnjoy!\r\n\r\nPost-compo:\r\nI've spent quite some time, thinking about the game-design. I wanted to improve mainly on the chaotic game-play. I decided to give the launch-pads a cool-off instead of using a global monster-launch-cool-off (nice word ^_^). This added a lot to the strategy in the game, in my opinion. Unfortunately, I didn't have much time to spend on the game, yet. So I did not add too much. Still, it's worth a try ;)\r\n\r\n","title":"Brainless Attack"}
