I've never seen specifically gameplay like this, but at the same time once I got accustomed to how it all comes together, it was also pretty familiar. I wish there was an indicator whether or not I could place an object down rather than it just jump back to the menu if I was too close to the light grey track, and the beeping for the health of the patient was a bit annoying. Overall I dig the aesthetics a lot, and I found the game itself challenging and engaging. I'd love to see a full version of this.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":782571,"author_name":"cottontshirtz","author_uid":"cottontshirtz","epoch":1649123273,"text":"Real gross!\n\nI like the idea of a TD game where you move the towers around!\nI wish the second enemy type was a \"heavy\" instead of fast though, they would always catch me off-guard.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":787888,"author_name":"PashaLoban","author_uid":"pashaloban","epoch":1649158876,"text":"Cool game","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":788021,"author_name":"OrangeDragon","author_uid":"orangedragon","epoch":1649159626,"text":"Ahaha, really cool concept, I like it :) Dark humour is really strong with this one (you save lives though!).

I also found placement a bit annoying at times where I'd get it a bit too close to an edge and it'd snap back to the body. I would have rather it just snapped to the closest valid position instead.\n\nOverall super cool take on the tower defense genre!
