Overall not the most innovative game, but definitely fits the theme and an enjoyable experience. Good work!
Nice for first game

Love the simplistic art style! Nice music too. In general I like tower defense game, so it was fun to try it out. Some points of feedback:
- Cats go for further mine even, if there is a one closer, so that could be improved.
- Since player score is based on time they survived, maybe a timer on the screen would be a nice addition.
- Of course different types of enemies. The standard: fast but low hp, slow but high hp, maybe some enemies moving in a zig zag pattern... Probably just changing the color of regular enemies and their stats would be enough to add a lot to the game.
- Same for few types of units that player could summon... but I get for everything to be added a lot of time is required, which is a rare commodity in a game jam.
- I'm not sure if unites accuracy is low or there is some visual glitch with bullet going in a different direction than enemy it kills.
Anyway, I had fun. Good job!
