In this tower defense game, you have to ensure that bugs do not destroy your computer. Victory is achieved by fixing bugs.

Bugs will move through the conductive tracks in your mainboard. Place your towers along the way to destroy the bugs before they get to the exit. All bugs can cause malfunction to your towers.

If you had selected one type of tower and need to change to another type, press X to cancel the selection and Z to select the new tower.

I made this game for the Game Off Game Jam: 2021. The theme was BUG

The game has 8 handcrafted levels, five types of enemies, and six types of towers to use to defend your place in the computing world. Initially, I was planning for 16 levels, but I had to cut them in half or I would not finish the game in time. It was my first experience with the tower defense genre. Definitely, it needs more polishing and balancing.

[8x8]
Beetle: the first contender to show up. Not special, but can cause some damage to your computing tasks.

[8x8]
Slug: The slowest bug you will face. It is more toxic than any other bug in the menu.

[8x8]
Centipede: Its multiple legs will disable any booby traps you plant along the way.

[8x8]
Scorpion: It is like a war tank and will try to destroy any terminals it can find.

[8x8]
Flies: They fly fast, nothing can slow them down.

[8x8]
Spinning gun: spits bullets when bugs came close. The cheapest one to get.

[8x8]
Booby trap: When triggered, this lethal explosive takes down almost any bug.

[8x8]
Laser: Multi aiming high energy gun. It fries bugs like no one can do.

[8x8]
Sticky trap: Slow down enemies. Flies are not affected.

[8x8]
Auto turret: Do not waste bullets! This high-tech gun fires directly through the enemies.

[8x8]
Terminals: They fix bugs for you and give you the ability to buy your defense equipment.
