Spooky Scary House For Sale by error031

[raw]
made by error031 for LD33 (JAM)
BIG APOLOGY TO EVERYONE WHO PLAYED GAME BEFORE 29.08.
I uploaded debug version of the game by mistake on the site. In that version you had 10,000 dust to start with, instead 100 that I intended. I you look at the 0.1.0 version on gamejolt for windows, you will see that, but when I added scripts for main menu button that i forgot, i exported debug version.
Once again, big apology to everyone who played game untill now, because you didn't expirience it fully!

You are spooky scary house, and you have lived your life pretty quietly, since your owners died. But people nowdays are starting to love abandoned old houses, and anything that is scary. Just today, real estate agent arranged 10 people to come over and look at your rooms! And everyone loves haunted houses more than another. You must defend your home with supernatural beings, straight from Underworld!

Light Candles to get Dust, Spawn Zombies, Lock the Doors, and Place Obstacles. Do everything to draw them away!

This is tower defence game, that has potential to be also tycoon game, but that part of the game isn't much done.

Game is optimized for 16:9 monitors, there could be gui bugs if you use different ones.

*Fixed bug that made Main Menu buttons at the end of the game unclickable

Interesting idea; you might want to lower the starting resources as its pretty easy at the moment.

Cool, fun game. I like the concept. It feels almost like a tower defense because of the pathing they take. The economy system seems very broken though you can spawn harvesters and you will have all the dust you could ever want. Overall it was a cool twist on the Theme. Congrats!

Loved the game, gameplay became a bit stale after a bit, but then again i played it for a while :P

It's a cool idea, but I'm not sure it's been fully executed. Maybe the game is too easy - I simply spammed monsters near a locked door and that was enough to scare them every time. But otherwise it looks great!

Thanks for nice comments!
As for broken economy, i didn't have much time to think about economy, because I was rushing to finish game in time :/
Balancing economy will be first thing to do in post LD version

Cool idea, but the lack of difficulty makes it interesting only in a novelty kind of way.

The idea is neat. The game is easy, but it's fun that way. I scared every monster out there:)) Congratulations

Like the concept. The gameplay was slightly trivial with the high starting resources but still interesting.
