Fun little tower defense game that is short and sweet and doesn't make things too complicated, all the while having enough depth to not make things boring!

A cute stripped-down roguelike tower defense that still requires some clever strategy from the player, especially if you want all the achievements. Check the free version out on itch.io if you're not sure you'll like it. This version offers plenty of improvements in balancing and choice that'll make it worth your two bucks. I enjoyed it quite a bit, definitely one of the better TDs I've played.

I really enjoyed this little one shot TD. Some random elements and merging action and still some pretty interesting strategic choices.
Don't expect it to last you more than maybe 4-5 hours. Placing towers towards the end of the game becomes a real chore, and I'll probably not replay it after winning once. But I do think it's worth the cheap price.

The game is strangely addicting and it feels like its easy to get a handle of but the RNG aspect of things really hurts it. If you're lucky you might get the towers that are good if not you just have to lose because the enemies will out pace you. Its hard to tell when combining towers is a good thing as well because for some it feels like the ungraded forms aren't even worth it.
The dev seems like they put love into it so i dont want to call it bad but I really dislike how playing it makes me feel.

Just the one level, ~30 mins to play through. Most of the choices are easy picks / easy skips.
Core gameplay is match 2 to upgrade.

Small Prize, small Game. But also small Fun... RNG is always a hit or miss and while i'd say this games RNG is fun it isn't what i would look forward to in a Tower Defence Game. The brutality and NOT FUN-part is in it's difficulty: a balancing act of building random tower, so you can sell certain towers to progress in your constant struggle for money to buy more random towers just to not fall behind the HP-scale of the enemy. RNG does not help to build up a good synergy, which does exists in this TD! This needs some more cooking, or a change of pace...

I haven't played this much on steam, but I bought it here to support the dev and to get the latest PICO-8 image to use on Miyoo Mini. And it's super fun, plays nicely! I love the artstyle.
Funny thing that I actually learned about PICO-8 just yesterday, and I am hooked on games released for it. Even funnier that my favorite games were Bunny Survivor and this game, and what do you know, they are made by the same person! Thanks for making them! Hoping to see more games and/or updates from you! Would be really cool to see something similar to HS battlegrounds, but in the Night of the full moon fashion.

Updated version of WitchCraft TD, one of my favourite PICO-8 games. This version is largely the same but with some new enemies, and it's slightly harder.
I think it's great. If you're unsure about buying it go check out the free version on itch or lexaloffle first, you'll know exactly what you're getting into then.

Good little game, with some caveats.
Took me about six hours to beat, but I'm not an old hand at tower defense games like some people around here. I didn't end up minding that there was only one map since it was challenging and fun with just the one, but it might bother some.
Also, RNG's a big part of the game, so if you find that especially annoying you won't like it. Here's how it works: for one, it's 100 coins to build a tower, and you don't get to decide what tower you get. You also get cards after beating certain levels that decide what enemy you'll face next, which has some challenge like, "Face ten extra enemies this round," or, "Enemies this round will be immune to poison," and a related bonus, like, "+1 coin for every enemy killed from now on," or, "+125 coins," respectively. Figuring out what cards to take and what cards to skip ended up being the main skill I needed to win the game. And if it takes some skill and allows for some skill, it can't be that bad, right? For my part, I liked the way this game handled the RNG.
I'd say the game's main flaw is that some of the cards are clearly bad. Not enough to break the game, but it stands out as a problem.

WitchCraft TD is a simple game that came from NewGrounds, this version is upgraded and adds a few mechanics and different market trades that allow for the game to be fun and repeatable. To be honest i'm super happy I got it on Steam, its worth it, and you get to have many hours of fun.
