Papper says ...
Awesome, loved it :)
Notch says ...
The download link seems to be broken. It should be http://www.the-manatee.net/AkinTower__c_Ariel_Yust_2008.rar
VERY nice graphics!
Frimkron says ...
The graphics are excellent, with so much work put into the animations and little extra touches. The game mechanics are made interesting with the varying levels of destructable armour, but holding down the mouse button and casting fireballs I was able to hold off every wave, so it was a little on the easy side.
Jach says ...
Fun little game, and pretty graphics. I think I might have to steal your art skills...
edwardoka says ...
Very entertaining game. Fantastic animations, overall nice art assets, especially with the enemies.
The spellcasting menu is a bit off, and perhaps the difficulty curve is too shallow. I had to turn off the music immediately, though.
dstrysnd says ...
Graphics are awesome.
keeyai says ...
The art is beautiful! Great job.
What did you make that music in? I don't know what these other people are thinking about the music - I loved it.
Daz says ...
It was pretty fun, animations are nice and smooth and the music isn't annoying.
demize says ...
Nice game. :)
matrin says ...
Akin looks cool. :D
drZool says ...
Ahhh, I had to stop at wave 21, a bit easy. Music is good, it didn't get annoying, gfx is great, you really worked on this game, much animation, etc... good job!
Endurion says ...
Looking very good, i also like the idea of the armoured enemies, where you have to hit the unprotected parts.
The music is annoying fast ;)
Codexus says ...
Awesome game with great graphics and cool music. I really like the the way the different enemies with armor are handled.
Hamumu says ...
Really awesome graphics, and cool effect on the arrows with ghosting. It was really hard to aim them though, they didn't really head quite toward the cursor, especially at the bottom end of the screen.
Real easy, I too had to quit at wave 21. I hope I didn't miss an amazing ending.
wonderwhy-er says ...
Nice graphics. Game play is fun but i think it could have been little bit better :) Got repetitive after some 10 waves and well i exited... Music if fine. Not annoying but may little bit off considering the theme.
And gosh how did you feel after so much energy drinks and cola. Must have felt as if you drunk much yesterday :D
Morre says ...
My tower took no damage until level 16 - too long :/
I died at level 25 - the gameplay doesn't quite hold enough variation, so I was hardly trying in the end.
Superb graphics - awesome characters!
Music's very nice, although it's a shame that there are no other sounds.
Overall, good stuff! Oh, and I love the doll :)
Deepflame says ...
Not many LD games get a 5 on graphics, but this is definitely one of them. :)
adamzap says ...
Awesome graphics. Great game.
pansapiens says ...
Excellent graphics ! The mummies hiding in little towers made me laugh. Difficultly ramped up nicely to begin with, but then seemed to flatten off ... my mouse had got tired before I was properly challenged. Background music is fairly generic, but sounded good enough that I left it on for ~ 20 waves. Simple concept for a game, not entirely unique but additions like the magic (the fireballs ARE fun) keep it a bit more interesting. Great entry.
Sivart13 says ...
Quite good. I didn't realize that you could just spam arrows without cost, and that made it quite a bit harder.
nilsf says ...
Really nice graphics. I played until wave 21 then got bored and let the monsters kill me. Unfortunately the sound didn't work on my machine (using wine) so I couldn't rate audio.

AkinTower – Time Lapse
The day before:
The competition have started I was sure that the theme would be evolution, I went to sleep early with a mind full of ideas about the theme, but when I woke up, which was at 6:00 at the morning a surprise striked me ~ oh boy! its “THE TOWER” >_<
So, it began:
I love tower defence games so I have decided to make a tower defence game about a very unique character, Akin, which is a character I made, he came to me in a very strange dream including nika nad well what ever… >_< I made a stuffed doll out of him which you can see in the game and in my journal early photos
I made a doll out of him because everyone said that its not possible… weaklings… anyway his a cool character and he was fiting the game – bringin it abit of originality.
I was thinking about using him in the game while taking photos of my work space hhh :) probably because he took over my keyboard
First thing I’v done was to draw the enemy… then a test map, after doing that I wanted to start abit coding, a problem apeared, Fenix using Bennu (game compiler) didnt want to show me graphics no matter what >_< I strugled with it for an hour and in the end I managed to solve the problem by deleting everything @_@, then I started coding… coding and drawing arrows and then Akin him self and the mouse pointer and in this day I’v managed to make great progress
In order to stay alive and awake I was drinking energy drinks and listening to 1576 heavy trance music… and yep it helped alot! I had to sit and eat with the family and lose another hour and I had to drink some vodka too
well that wasnt a problem hhhh any way…
First day was great!
final day
Was in panic to finish the game… time is short and I have much to draw and code… I’v drew a new background and fixed many isuues with the shooting and the bounchinf fireballs and added 2 more enemys that I was thinking about yesterday…
now grandparents came and again the family sits togever and eats… again drinking vodka while on energy drinks XD ahhhh… what was I thinking… I was coding from tierdness >_<, firmly and realy fast I’v took a photo of my self with my two trusted axes and photoshoped it… and realy fast put it in the game… damn! my levels aren’t implimented! :O okay… realy realy fast I’v managed to write a spawn algorithm and had to disable a super attack >_< because I had no time to code it… baaa… I didnt have time even to put sounds which I had allready recorded with the music >_<
oh well… the panic was worth it… I was so dead tierd I had to go to sleep… and I was so willing to sleep that I couldnt fell a sleep >_<
