February 1GAM entry: Defbot

In the last hour of the grace period I managed to finish my latest masterpiece. Like the last time, I chose to build upon a well known mechanic and add my own twist to it. The result is Defbot - the mix of a platformer and a tower defense game.

You are under attack by a horde of robots racing to blow themselves up at your base. Use your long range turret deployment system and set up defenses to protect your headquarters. There are two types of turrets for your disposal. Faster but weaker bullet turrets to engage the bots in close range and slow firing, long range rocket turrets capable of taking out multiple bots with single explosion. Think quickly, the enemy is approaching!
