If Vampire Survivors and Loop Hero and Factorio joined forces to make a clicker game! Tower defense idle game that quickly gets frantic. Loving it so far!
A cute lil tower defense game with progression. Here's a quick little pros and con list for everyone
Pros - satisfying game play loops that incentivise replayability - engaging progress though an upgrade tree, not only for perminate upgrades - a hidden ARG??? I've only gotten a little bit into it but there is something more here - beeps and boops all over the place - okay the single greatest feature in this game is as your bots blow up enemies they drop money on the ground, and you have to click to collect it. You can accumlate a massive pile of money, and when you collect a GIANT amount of money it's *chef's kiss* - a smash ball?! - developer is attentive, already implamented an option I requested to turn on or off bit flinging - enough content there to keep your little ADHD brain ont his one for a while. This certainly isn't a demo
Cons - the art style is rough, and is sometimes hard to parse - confusing to know if you're winning or losing - not all towers are immedently viable, so if you find one you like you kinda gotta care for it like a newborn baby - some bugs that won't allow you to finish some levels in rare cases - if you're rapidly clicking you can accidently fling your money around which is frusterating developer addressed this.
Overall I would recommend this one, I kinda expected to run into something that would entirely put me off of this one, but instead I found myself drawn in and enjoying my time enough to explore more of what this game has to offer. If you like Vampire Suvivors at all with number go up, Turbotz is defintily worth your conideration! (plus I have it on good athority that the developer would like to do more with this title if more people support it! And can really envision what some polish would do to this title!)
1.2.1 is up with a few features to make things easier/accurate Factories should release path arrows on click and hold Tab now toggle bolt flinger on/off and is configurable Clicking another mouse button when using the bolt flinger will cancel it Camera movement no longer glides after releasing the button Lowered volume on building sound
Thanks for being some of the first! Got to some of the feedback mentioned, here are the updates: Prompt added encouraging players to click for faster shooting before they've clicked 100 times Added accessibility option that will auto click one Turbotz at a time Prompt added encouraging players to open ports if they never had and have extra bolts Panning the camera is now possible with both the middle and right mouse buttons. In addition to assigned movement keys. Rare bug that crashed on test load decided to make itself easy to fix today this patch
