Low battery by David Brož

In middle of nowhere. 4 laser turrets. 1 Generator. Few spare batteries. And a ton of monsters to shoot through. You better hope to not run out of power before the last one bites the dust.
Controls: -mouse (drag and drop)
Goal: Make it through all waves while not losing your generator. Keep turrets powered up to stay alive.
(Caution advice: includes easter eggs (literally) )

Alright game -- the graphics and sound effects chosen did the job, perhaps it could have done with some music?
I liked little touches like the batteries and plugs rotating as you moved them around the screen.
The only usability gripe I had was that batteries and plugs could be placed in such a way that the turret wouldn't *actually* charge, maybe you could make them snap?
It just lacks level and enemy variances, and a graphics upgrade.
The many different battery types were too much and reading while the game was running wasn't that compelling. You should flesh it out. Well done.
I also liked the art and sounds.
You just need to implement a little bit of more variety and you got a nice defence game! :)
