Auto-Battler meets Tower Defense

Description

Defend the last remaining wizard tower from the never-ending swarm of monsters!

Buy and level up over 20 different wizards, and combine units from 8 different classes to get special bonuses.

How to Play

• Buy wizards from the shop with your money
• Reroll the shop to see more units
• Upgrade your shop by buying level ups
  • Leveling up the shop increases the chance of finding higher tiered units
  • Leveling up also allows you to have an additional unit on the field

• Place wizards from your bench onto the map
• Press play to start the round and fast-forward to toggle the play speed
• At the end of each wave, receive money for the round + interest for each multiple of 5 dollars you own
• Drag units to the bottom right trash to sell them

• Combine 3 level-1 wizards of the same type to get a level-2 version of it
  • Combine 3 level-2 wizards to get a level-3 version of it
  • Level ups will give the wizard more damage and other improvements

• Combine units to get class bonuses (in the image below, you would get the Purple 2 and Red bonuses)
• Each multiple of 2 different wizards on the field that share the same color will give you a class buff
  • For example, having a Lightning wizard and a Overcharger wizard on the field will give all your yellow units an extra attack (something something about lightning never striking twice..)
  • Similarly having 4 different red units will increase the AOE sizes for all of them

Closing thoughts

This is my second time participating in LD, but I haven't really touched game dev much since that last game 2 years ago. Had a fun time making this game, although definitely could have used some more initial planning to sort out all my ideas. Ran out of time again to add any music, and barely completed this all within the 48 hours. Will probably consider doing a Jam entry next time :upside_down:

Game is probably still pretty unbalanced as I didn't have a ton of time to fully test everything, may end up releasing a balance patch when I get around to it
