CyberGrid: Tower defense

This is a Udemy course game (from yt Code Monkey, Builder-Defender course) with very minor tweaks to it. It is supposed that you interate and build upon the foundation of the course, not just swap some (not even all) visual details. It's working, sure, the code was provided in the course :) Please don't leave it at that, even for a free game. The artstyle is kinda cool, I dig it - now you can make it more fun and build more things into it. At the very least, customize the UI to your game, not leave it at what was provided. Pls make Code Monkey proud, it's not there yet.

"CyberGrid: Tower defense" is a really badly made quasi-minimalist tower defense game with some seriously ugly visuals, and as is so often the case, the poor visuals stand as a warning that the rest of the game is as bad as it looks... it's riddled with bugs, imbalanced, doesn't play right, and feels like an exercise in Adobe Flash more than any real attempt to make a game for gamers. What do you do in the game? Drop down some towers in a "cyberpunk inside the computer" themed train wreck of a game. On the topic of visuals, the weak looking 2D retro assets seem like they'd be more at home in a browser game or a mobile app. 3D graphics accelerators hit the mainstream of PC gaming in the mid 1990's with cards like the ATI Rage and Voodoo3D, there's no excuse for such poor 2D graphics in 2025. That alone is enough to disqualify this for recommendation. Now on to pricing and value for gamers. This is "free" enough (not every "free" game in the "free" section is truly free, there's usually some hidden price tag), at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good, and the cost of a game is more…

This game lacks features and is extremely unbalanced. Has potential via the art style, but is generally underwhelming.

terrible game design, absolutely zero tutorial, and its near impossible to get past wave six, would not recommend
