Inside Job
A reverse tower defense (tower offense, if you will) where you need to siege your own city to raise your approval rating. The farther your minions move on the map, the more abilities and units you unlock.
Made for GMTK Jam 2023 (theme: Roles Reversed), placed 55th overall and included in the GMTK Personal Top 20.
Note: Inside Job does not endorse conspiracy theories. Any similarities to real-life events are completely coincidental.

Does the reverse tower defense game have to upgrade the minions? Couldn't there just be combination uses for each type. Also why is the Cleric and Knight only playable in the last level? Aaaannd you can do this game fast without using anything but basic skeleton with the upgrade system sooo.
It's a super casual game done in two days for a game jam, so there were tons of features and levels scrapped due to time constraints. I might revisit this project at a later date but for now it is what it is.
This was really good!
i need more more!

AQWESINE!!!!
Cute, little game!
Fun game, but even the last level could be won by just spamming units
Even without upgrading? If so then this game is too easy.
Good game.
I would love to switch the option of clicking the numbers 1-9 for the enemys to click directly on the enemy with the mouse
appreciate the humour
Very cool graphics
time speed increases whole speed but it should only affect the crew.
This game is awesome, but it's to short.
Hi! We played your game on stream and really enjoyed it!
Good Game, Well Polished
good
I had a great time with this! The humor and style was a charming experience, and like some comments down the list I'd be down for an expansion of this if it was ever made. (maybe he invades other kingdoms to gain a following before taking over?)
