Kill peasants, take their gold, repeat. Survive 10 days!

I made this really quickly for GMTK Jam 2025.

It's some sort of an idle game / tower defense I guess

Pick spells / actions to put in the king's loop and they will happen automatically.

Buy more spells and permanent upgrades in the end of each day from the gold you collected.

Survive 10 days!

Everyone in the comments is chatting about crashing the game… but here’s my favorite build (it works almost every time):

(Writing in Rot13 for spoilers because it ruins the game)

Qnl 1: Ohl n [Fvatyr Ohyyrg] oybpx naq n [Pbyyrpg] oybpx, naq znxr gur ybbc [Fvatyr Ohyyrg] + [Pbyyrpg Pbvaf] + [Rzcgl Fcnpr] + > [Rzcgl Fcnpr]. (Lbhe UC jvyy yvxryl tb qbja gb ~80. Qba’g jbeel nobhg vg.)

Qnl 2: Ohl n [Serrmr] oybpx naq chg vg va gur 3eq cynpr va gur ybbc. Gur ybbc vf abj [Fvatyr Ohyyrg] + [Pbyyrpg Pbvaf] + [Serrmr] + [Rzcgl > Fcnpr]. (Lbhe UC jvyy tb qbja gb ~40. Qba’g jbeel nobhg vg.)

Qnl 3: Fryy gur [Fvatyr Ohyyrg] naq [Pbyyrpg] oybpxf. Ohl n [Serrmr] oybpx. Znxr gur ybbc [Serrmr] + [Rzcgl Fcnpr] + [Serrmr] + [Rzcgl Fcnpr].

Gung’f vg :). Qba’g ohl be fryy be zbir nalguvat. Lbh’er fnsr hagvy gur raq bs gur tnzr.

Man I was just getting into it when it ended. There's so much you could do with this concept, like different kinds of projectiles with different modifiers.

Somehow i got a crash at a higher level, removed the gold collector while having the multiplier enabled plus some upgrade is gold chance and was running on high speed if it matters. There was just to much coin. Other then that I enjoyed playing the game.

Nice little short game. The concept of looping attacks is easy to understand yet fun. The single attack seems a bit underpowered when there's an attack that fires 10 projectiles? Also I got to 105% chance to get gold lol. The game has a lot of potential if the moves are more balanced and has synergies.

Crashed the game before day 9 ! 
100% GOTY

very satisfying, I love killing peasants. Just wish it was a little longer and a little harder

Maxed out my loop speed with the "double uncollected coins" skill right before the "collect uncollected coins" skill. Since the coins aren't considered collected until they reach the king's tower, they kept duplicating midair, creating a mass of midair coins that duplicated faster than they were collected, and slowing the game to about one frame every five or ten seconds, said frames being punctuated by the coin collection sound. My laptop started softly whirring. Firefox gave me around twelve notifications to close the tab to improve browser speed. In the time I wrote this review, one in-game second passed.


10/10, couldn't ask for a more fun experience.
