Description
Don't let the inmates escape your prison yard (tower defence). All characters use A* to navigate, so you can build your own game area.
How to Play
Basic click and point. Inmates come in waves. If too many escape the level fails. You can build towers, fences and place guards. The more powerfull, the more expensive. Cash is earned by killing inmates. You can always sell a selected building by pressing s. While building a fence, you can rotate it by pressing r. Some inmate form gangs, some try to blow up buildings, some try to kill guards.
Developer Updates
About the gameplay. Itโs all about strategy. Part of the concept is the fact that your defences can be destroyed by inmates as well as themselves. Use fences wisely to create a better route or to shield guards. Inmates with dynamite blow up your defences, so beware. Donโt let them get to close to your towers. Sacrifice guards if you have to. Some inmates have guns and kill guards, so plan where you place them. You should save some cash just in case. Also, if an inmate canโt find a valid path, it will destroy your fences.

I like the idea of the inmates being able to climb the fences and so forth, but there were several levels I got no money for killing inmates, placement of the towers is bizarre, and it ramps up very quickly with inmates having explosives on the second wave of the first level, when you have barely any defenses in place, and no way to replace the ones you do have. Needs work, but has potential.

2/5 until rebalanced. Dynamite inmate just cleared my guards leaving no defenses and no money.

"Dynamite inmate just cleared my guards leaving no defenses and no money" => The point of the game is to make sure the dynamite can't clear your defenses or at least to make sure you have enough money to rebuild. It's about making the right tactical decisions. Place fences and sell them at the right time to guide the inmates though your grid of towers. It is possible to get to level 7 without having even one inmate escaping. Also, you can't place towers to close to each other or to the edge of the field. One last warning: if you place your fences in such a way that inmates can't reach the exit, they will attack your fences. Use guards against the inmates with the dynamite but not against the inmates with the guns (they shoot the guards). Use fire or missile towers against groups of inmates. Save your cash! You might need to rebuild fast.
