LD54: Circular Nest
A solo-made game, in 3 days, for the Ludum Dare 54.
Disclaimer:
All assets were made from scratch (but the font can be found here), as the project was meant to be a Compo entry but finally was released as a Jam one for polishing purposes.
The LD theme was Limited Space.
The game:
You're in control of a turret set in a circular arena. Strange bugs will eventually come and try to destroy your turret. Your mission: prevent that from happening.
It's a combination of Tower Defense, Roguelike, Shooter and maybe Vampire Survivors-like games. The more you progress, the harder it becomes. But the more bugs you'll defeat, the more upgrades you can pick.
And that's exactly where carefully selecting your next upgrade will be key! With every level-up, you'll get to choose between 3 randomly generated rewards to pick from. Make your own strategy to finish the game!
Also, the arena will shrink over time. And with that, the enemies will spawn way closer to the turret anytime this happens. This is where Limited Space takes place.
Oh and yes, all of the sound effects were made with my mouth and a microphone. And I think this is beautiful.
Controls:
- Mouse "cursor" to aim
- Mouse "left click" or keyboard Space bar to shoot
- Keyboard "R" to restart at any moment
- Keyboard "ESC" to quit the game at any moment

Awesome! You can also find my first commercial project, ESCAPE SPACE, on Steam!
