Description
Enjoy blasting shapes to smithereens as you unlock new faces for them, leveling up without limits! This is a Tower Defense game inspired by the classic series, Protector. Even the cabbage returns with a revenge!
How to Play

Can use space/enter to send the next wave.
Press M/0 to change the sound options (including music-only if you turn up the speed).
Hotkeys: 1-6 to construct towers.
P or Pause to pause the game.
A to automatically send new waves (A again to turn it off)

Hi, I played for a bit and I have some comments. I like that the paths are automatically generated, even though that might increase the difficulty of balancing the game. The game looks pretty cool even though you have simple graphics. There seem to be a lot things in the game (global upgrades, equipment, crafting) but it's all up to the player to find out how to use any of it, there are no descriptions of anything. I found out in a game that I can actually upgrade my towers, but nowhere did it say anything like that. Also, the difficulty seems a bit weird, it's either really easy or really hard. I'm working on a tower defense game myself so I won't judge, it's hard! :) But yeah I hope you can improve the game. One thing I would recommend is some hotkeys for placing towers. Good luck!

To answer your question on how to show the information:
Determine what the basics are that a player needs to know to play all of the game. Then explain that in a compact way. Consider these:
1 A Bestiary: Add an "Information" option to the main menu that contains all aspects in the game which are explained there.
2 A First Time Manual: When the player goes to for example the inventory screen for the first time, you give a short tutorial on how to use crafting materials etc. You can add a button to do the tutorial again or combine this with a bestiary so the player can always read it there.
3 A Tutorial: A small mission in which you make the player do/read things. Example: Pick and place tower, mention hotkeys, hover over enemy for stats, send next wave, click tower to view stats, upgrade tower, remove a cabbage, craft something, equip and item, etc.
You can combine methods or come up with another. Good luck! And thanks for taking my advice earlier and adding hotkeys! :)

Quick update: Now there are hotkeys (thanks Barragor for the idea) and I fixed an inventory bug (thanks Markku). I also added in that if you double-click on an equipment while there is an open slot, it will automatically equip.
