Recon Romble

Thank you for checking out our game!

As a submission for the 2023 GMTK Game Jam, we had to follow the theme "Role Reversal".

To match this theme, we decided to make a game where you play as the level in a roguelike game, meaning that you get to control enemy spawns and place obstacles to stop a player from reaching the end.

You play as the leader of an army camp that keeps getting assaulted by spies trying to steal information. Your job is to use the resources available to you to stop these spies from running away.

You can do this by placing troops and obstacles along the way, which will hopefully distract the spy long enough for your troops to kill them.

Both the player and the enemies you place are controlled by AI, with the player being much more complex.

Keybinds:

 - The number keys let you quickly select a building without needing to manually click it with your mouse.

 - Pressing TAB will let you swap between placing troops and obstacles.

 - Pressing Space will start the round.

 - R will rotate a tower.

 - Escape will let you cancel your placement.
