Description

Jam game made in 3 days for Ludum Dare 44 and polished after as a webgame release!

-. PROTECT YOUR TREASURE

You're the king of the skeletons!
You start as a small Skull, but eager to protect and shelter its gold against every single looter that dares to march into your pit!
What better defense than your mighty bones? Settle bone turrets, bone walls and bone bombs; against the armies of the human king.

It would be nice if there were hotkeys for putting down buildings and ways to put down more at once. Though that would mess with the balance, since as it is beyond a certain point you can easily get enough bones and the problem is putting down walls as fast as they get destroyed. Also, it would be good to have different kinds of towers. You might have more to choose from at the beginning, or have different ways to upgrade them. And it would be good if you could repair buildings and walls, or at least replace the walls.

Thanks for the feedback, we'll consider it but giving the time we had for polishing and developing the game being this one an gamejam entry ( the game was made in 48 hours and polished bit more of a week after initial release) it was a total challenge doing hotkeys for everything, I managed to do hotkeys for upgrading and deconstructing, which is the way for replacement for now; We'll explore more ideas if the interest is there! Thank you.

Should be a way to repair. Also, I think waves shouldn't be sent automatically.

Deconstructing and constructing it's an alternative for now for that I'm afraid. Waves now will have a better delay for you to prepare as well!

Not sure what all the recent changes were, but the difficulty seems to ramp up a lot faster. Possibly adjust the costs or number of enemies per wave...and maybe have two bombs, big and small (old way/price)

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah you can check the recent changes as we did some stuff regards the waves that you mentioned, reworked the bombs, now there's hotkeys for fast placing deployables and such.

the moment archers appear is when i lose they have more hp than my turrets and its a net loss if trying to use bones as ammo. how am i supposed to build stuff up if i can't last 3 waves?

We will balance it better, it's really hard for us to pull off with a perf balance.

What can I say, the enemies move faster and faster and you do not, having to place items via drag and drop one at a time is slow and ultimately you lose because you cannot keep up, not due to lack of any strategy you might use.
