Turret Arena by nikev
A mixture between tower defense and.. football? Join a 10v10 match where your job is to deploy shape-shifting turrets to destroy your enemy.
I ran out of time and didn't add extra turrets like shield, health, etc. The goal was to allow the the user to transform turrets from one type to another.

Good job.
The AI is pretty smart, I wish it prevented you from placing turrets inside of spawns.
What would be REALLY cool would be, instead of having to walk back and forth, you controlled a tank that shapeshifted into a turret when you pressed space, and then you'd respawn as another tank. score would be by the amount of turrets/ tanks that were destroyed.
Until I discovered a trick - you can build a turret on a wall cell and it will erase the wall. So I set up a few quick turrets where my spawn wall was that guarded my half. Then I built turrets replacing the wall between our spawn zones and my turrets opened fire on their guys coming to their door to get boxes. After that the balance tipped hard and I won.
I played a while and liked it, though! Nice entry.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description
Really unique, good work!
