Horizon Assault by Lélek Hunor Kadosa

.
Ever wondered what it's like to play a tower defense game from the enemy's perspective?
.

Your task (who's the unofficial member of Shadow Wizard Money Gang) to summon units and take control over the land of towers in the Mars.
Your units contains, melee, shooter, marksman, tank and bomber. They have special abilities and different behaviour.
As a wizard you can choose either you let them take the action, or you can order your units to take their position to a certain place

Your faithful creations

Those idiot martians:

Controls:
If you want to control your units manually you can use your [Right button], other wise they will move to the closest tower they see
With button [1-5] you can summon your units in the summoning area.
1: Melee unit 2: Shooter unit 3: Marksman unit 4: Bomber unit 5: Tank unit
To Restart press the [R] button.

Since you're using Unity, have you tried looking into WebGL builds? I think your game could work well in a browser too!
Nice juice. Love to see a tutorial in a jam game. I think if a Shooter Tower hits a bunch of units on the same pixel they do splash? I spammed a bunch of marksmen and they seemed to die instantly, idk. Not sure how the right button control was meant to work, maybe should have been in the tutorial. Fun game.
The tutorial was really good, it was comprehensive and had some good interaction to explain the game.
Thanks for the great game play. You really did a very nice job!!!
I have issues with the HUD but by may be due to my 4K resolution.
Also i could not invoke other unit than the first without invoke a firts unit a the same time. Weird !

Concept is good. Could benefit from some balancing, since its easy to just get 1 tank and couple of rangers and wait, but its really nice little game - I enjoyed the sounds and how it looks even with UI scale issue!
Kudos on completing your entry!
