You can just spam space and left mouse button, then just concentrate on moving the cursor over the good apples. I was effectively invulnerable when doing this, and killed all of the enemies without them taking any money."},{"author_name":"balom","author_uid":"4215","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 1:24am","epoch":1429751940,"text":"Overall pretty neat concept! I like the idea of resource management on top of tower defense, where both of them are active. Add a few different enemy types to make it so you have to decide if you want to gather more resources or focus on defense and it would be really good!"},{"author_name":"roving-stone","author_uid":"53170","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 1:28am","epoch":1429752180,"text":"This was good, I like this music. Once I realized you can just hold down space and only click on the apples though I basically ignored the &quot;defense&quot; part of the game, and it was just about clicking falling apples."},{"author_name":"pikmin4000","author_uid":"13796","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 1:55am","epoch":1429753800,"text":"My MOBA dark past seeped over me and I played this game sub-consciously for 140 seconds... then i laughed that I got fat off so many apples"},{"author_name":"hbocao","author_uid":"25980","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 2:08am","epoch":1429754580,"text":"Interesting take on the theme!

I would suggest ramping up the difficult a bit faster, or even better, making waves.  My highscore was 301, but it felt like it took forever.  Good work though!"},{"author_name":"TeslaCoil","author_uid":"52611","time":"Apr 26, 2015 @ 1:56pm","epoch":1430056260,"text":"Thanks for the feedback, everyone!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Basically, I started with Urr smashing bandits. That version of the game was winnable by JUST holding Space, so I looked for the apples as a sort of balancing mechanism. It looks like those may not have made it hard enough either.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>As the game progresses, the good apples become rarer and the bad apples become more common. The idea was, at the very least, you'd have to release Space for a few seconds so you could click the few good apples in peace... but it caps at about 70% bad apples, so you still might not have to do that.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Waves were definitely something I should've done. That will be on the top of the list of things to do if I keep working on this later."}],"images":["ld32\/52611-185335dfbc274ab8919b206060455fce.jpg","ld32\/52611-fb7a994b80e684b1b6533de4264acb5f.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/ericingle.itch.io\/tower-defence","text":"Web"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"12118","g_author":"52611","g_event":"LD32","g_eventkey":"27","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"12148","g_title":"Tow-Urr Defence","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"644","g_commentcount":"12","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/52611-shot0-1429561067.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/444368\/52611-shot1-1429561067.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"A new meaning of the phrase \"tower defence\".\r\n\r\nYou play as Urr, an angry giant defending his gold from relentless thieves.
