The biggest one is by far target choice. It's super frustrating when your guard wants to attack another incoming thief, rather than the closer one.\n\nGood pixel art and aesthetic, sound effects are great.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"vfabien21","author_uid":"1013567","time":"2017-12-28T10:54:05Z","epoch":1514458445,"modified":1514458445,"text":"Hey, I really enjoyed your game ! Getting your revenue depending on the money you own is a really nice twist to tower defense.

Quite hard and interesting to find the balance between hiring new guards and making sure you still earn some money. I couldn't quite get the balance right - some thief always managed to steal something which completely screwed up my plan.

At first I thought it was just another tower defense game, but having the money increase based on wealth is super clever. I really enjoyed trying out different strategies and getting as far as possible. \n\nHaving to think about when to buy stuff and trying to wait until the last second was super cool.\n\nEDIT:\nThink I broke the game.

I only managed to get to about quarter 15 or so.

I played it for about half an hour, probably about 20 times, trying to figure out how to make money.\nOnce you reach that threshold where you can afford more (maybe around 1000), though, there's no concern about money. I built the tower and stocked it and the money just kept coming in. But after that, there's nothing more that you can do except watch your money go off the screen.\n![Screen Shot 2017-12-28 at 2.30.13 PM.png](\/\/\/raw\/505\/9\/z\/ecbb.png)","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"vfabien21","author_uid":"1013567","time":"2017-12-28T21:53:45Z","epoch":1514498025,"modified":1514525686,"text":"Ahah, ahah... 19 ratings...
