Dec. 2024
Just played a little what an amazing little gem. I'm a huge fan of so many humble published games I got this because of that and the winter sale. Definitely worth it and despite saying not knowing if steam deck compatible, well I just played an hour on deck with no issues so, so far so good. Just a cute game that mixes 2d tower defense in a cute and entertaining way for a modest price. I'm not sure if I'd pay full price but I haven't gotten more into it, I'' try to remember to edit if/when I do but for 10 or less if you want to treat yourself, do this instead of ice cream

The game is really good. Full of variety and character. I played it with remote play with a friend. The people who are saying the game is repetitive didn't get past the first level. I haven't seen a single level repeat itself. Each one of them have a different mechanic for defending the base. Some are on a moving platform, others have portals that teleport players and projectiles around, others have moving platforms that can be controlled with switches to move enemies and turrets around, others have different kinds of traps that you can use to your advantage, some have locked areas that only a specific character can reach and build stuff inside, some enemies move on walls instead of walking in a straight line. The game does have a very big ammount of variety. Tip: Unless you're new to strategy games, play the game on insane. Strategy games are more fun the more you have to use your brain. Also with a friend makes it even more fun. Specially if each of you voice act a character. The story is very enjoyable when you get farther into it and things start getting deeper.
