Bug Defense (Game Jam 3rd Place!)

Bug Defense is a Plants Vs Zombies inspired game made in conjunction with @fireboltofdeath. (He is an amazing scripter!)

It was made for a game jam hosted by @WhereIsMyShirt and judged by @WhoToTrus. (Both judges were really funny, and I had a great time watching them review submissions!)

We had four hours with the criteria of “Rough, Resources, Strategy.” We got 3rd place!

Note that there are indeed many bugs (pun intended- but seriously!) Expect to encounter them a lot. I do intend to edit the game any further. Only playable on Computer.

Thanks! :heart:

Its good for a game made in 4 hours, but some things I would suggest:


Features/Changes

  • I would re-do the buttons, and add something like this:

    Following up with that one, these should have icons and not just text labels:
  • When you hover over the icon, you will see that little bubble, as seen in the concept.
  • I would also suggest a tutorial for new players.
  • The game has little re-play value also. I would suggest an adventure mode kind of like Plants Vs. Zombies has

Bugs

  • When you re-play, sometimes your original layout appears
  • Not sure how I stacked towers

Overall, this is a good game that was made in 4 hours, and I congratulate you on your 3rd place! Thank you, WE

You made this in 4 hours? That’s insane, would’ve taken normal devs a few days at least. Congrats on third place!

Looks interesting, and if you made it for 4 HOURS then it’s epic.
