Reverse TD + level designs + interesting mechanics = Squirm around and avoid getting shot by the towers. Escaping gets harder with each wave. You can also dig through areas by sacrificing units.

This game is a great example of how to make a boring game. It's too slow, the strategy elements are weak, and it's just not satisfying. It's also very short, I was able to complete it within the 2 hour refund period. Would not recommend.3 found this helpful
Not nearly as good as the original. The graphics aren't as interesting and i'ts lacking the intrigue the pixel art style of the original game had.1 found this helpful
Liked the first. This has potential but too buggy and jank with missions being single tries, no replay option to explore different game mechanics. Final mission bugged out with a 'shield' that was created to block your path that could be destroyed, but after it regenerated once, it was impossible to destroy again despite entire map being cleared of the units that made the shield making for a very boring and impossible finally. Also. Replay value sucks. Missions cannot be redone to improve. You can only continue to the next mission and work towards finishing the game or restart the game from the first mission if you want to achievement hunt, you cannot replay any mission. Highly monotonous.1 found this helpful

A bit short, a bit undercooked, a bit jank. At times it looks like an advanced tech demo. Still, I enjoyed it. Once I understood how enemy reacts and that there are no strict limitations for passing missions - I was able to let go and just enjoy the gameplay.
