I thought this was a lot of fun. Loved the pig names and seeing what they looked like as they upgrade. As a concept, it was a lot more engaging than most tower defense games to me. \n\nA few of the levels could maybe be balanced a little better, but I had no problem reaching the end (mostly) intact.\n\nGreat job to the team!

It's great that you can upgrade your pig army and each upgrade gives them a unique personality. The music is a bit repetitive, but the sound effects are nice. Gameplay-wise it's not that hard, because there usually is a clear path which is best.

Might just be me! But maybe..  why not add a sparkle effect or something to draw attention to the arrow as a clickable feature?\n\n-- \nupgrade screen: \nThe pig names are fun! \nThe upgrade rank sound effect is funny!\n\nI don't love the font -- I find it difficult to read... the M's look like H's...  Hake Fast? oh.. Make Fast! And the N's kind of look like W's at quick glance.\n\n-- \nlevel 2: what's the second pentagram for?\nWhy is there a pig hiding in the bushes? \n\n+++\nlevel 3: oh! the 1,2,3 keys change the selected pentagram spawn zone thing!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":1048562,"author_name":"Yxure","author_uid":"yxure","epoch":1713299815,"text":"the concept of a puzzle game where you can upgrade your pieces after each level is really cool. good job!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":1052607,"author_name":"Squidly","author_uid":"squidly","epoch":1713339541,"text":"I love the idea.

There must be a glitch in the LD's recommendation algorithm! :D Seriously, I'm a huge fan of pixel art, and the way you've polished the art expression is just too good to resist. On top of that, your gameplay is also highly enjoyable, with a great balance of strategy and randomness. It's hard to imagine how you came up with this idea and managed to develop it to such a mature stage. If I were to attempt it, I'd probably be bald by now from all the hair-pulling.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":1061271,"author_name":"Joer","author_uid":"joer","epoch":1713461501,"text":"Pretty dope.

Absolutely adorable pixel piggies! <3\n\nIt has been so much fun finding the best solution for each level! \n\nI would have loved more visible information, like what does fat actually do? Maybe a preview before you start a level on how much damage enemies deal etc. but honestly, I'd totally pay for a full version of this game (with some sort of meta progression in a cute little pig village that you can upgrade, new pigs like wild boars, pot-bellied pigs, flying pigs, I don't know, just give me all the cute pixel pigs!

Very pleasant game; not too stressful, but requires a fair bit of thought if you want to minimize casualties. All of the piggies are excellent. If there is a way to see what new enemy units do before sending your pigs to the slaughter, I completely missed it, but it would be nice quality-of-life upgrade.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"}],"format":"md","images":["ld55\/wayback-placeholder.png"],"links":[],"metadata":{"g_key":"68377","g_author":"1180116","g_event":"LD55","g_eventkey":"120","g_subevent":"","g_urlkey":"292124","g_title":"","g_status":"WAYBACK","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"24","g_site2_node_id":"385540","g_hide":"Y","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"385540","n_urlkey":"292124","n_parent":"383062","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/55\/$385540","n_slug":"$385540","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"","n_author":"180116","n_created":"0","n_modified":"0","n_version":"1197192","n_status":"WAYBACK"},"node":{"id":385540,"parent":383062,"_superparent":9,"author":180116,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"","published":null,"created":"2024-04-09T16:31:02Z","modified":"2024-04-09T16:55:10Z","_trust":0,"version":1197192,"slug":"$385540","name":"","body":"","scope":"public","node-timestamp":"2024-04-09T16:31:02Z","meta":{"author":[180116]},"meta-timestamp":"2024-04-09T16:55:10Z","path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/55\/$385540","parents":[1,5,9,383062],"files":[],"files-timestamp":0,"love":0,"comments":0,"_wayback":{"timestamp":"20240409190048","url":"https:\/\/api.ldjam.com\/vx\/node2\/get\/385574+385554+385544+385532+385478+385462+385457+385453+385430+385415?author&parent&superparent","source":"global-node-catalog"}},"text":"","title":"","wayback_recovered":true,"wayback_source":{"timestamp":"20240409190048","url":"https:\/\/api.ldjam.com\/vx\/node2\/get\/385574+385554+385544+385532+385478+385462+385457+385453+385430+385415?author&parent&superparent","source":"global-node-catalog"}}
