Rad Critters
Important info / Instructions
You have 1 minute to gather resources and fortify your cabin before the critters come to attack. Press space to enter build mode and collect resources to build turrets (it takes 5 of each resource to build a turret). You lose either when your character dies, or your cabin is destroyed by bears.
I was not able to finish this game in time for the jam. There are a couple of unfinished mechanics and sprites. For example, the "F" in build mode is for a fence that was never implemented. The hammer in build mode doesn't have any uses yet. I also wouldn't recommend going into fullscreen since I didn't have time to scale and align everything properly for that.

Pretty fun! It's unfortunate it didn't get finished but what is there is pretty satisfying actually.
Of course I don't know what you planned to implement but I'll just go on and say things.
Since bullets penetrate and turrets can't die, you get to rolling the waves pretty fast since the numbers themselves matter less when the bullets can hit as many critters are in a line. That being said I think enemies can stand to do a bit more damage as well if things remained as they are.
Maybe locking bullet penetration to an upgrade or enemies that target turrets could mix things up a bit.
On the technical side there does seem to be more lag every wave start, about wave 4 I felt it was running at half speed.
Otherwise it's pretty good for a week! Visually it's clean and the sound effects are really satisfying to listen to. (Also I love the name)
Thank you, I really appreciate you taking the time to play my game and give some feedback! I'm definitely gonna keep working on this project, I have a ton of other ideas to add to the game.
best game ever ever
