Automata Defense (Pygame Jam 2)

This is a tower defense game where you use "bots" to build towers and collect resources. You cannot interact with the world directly--only through commands which your bots execute. There are three types of robots: Builders, Miners, and Scavengers:

• Build-Bots construct, upgrade, and sell towers. When you place a tower from the shop into the world, a Build-bot must visit the site before the tower can function.
• Mine-Bots harvest stones, and deliver them to the crystal base. Stones are required to construct towers.
• Scavenger-Bots pick up gold off the ground, and deliver it to the crystal base. Enemies have a chance to drop gold when killed.

You can click or hover over towers to see what they do.

Controls:

• Pause = Space
• Change Game Speed = Tab
• Toggle Fullscreen = F4
• Quit to main menu = Esc (while paused)
• Cancel a build, sell, or upgrade = Right-click it
• Select Tower = Click it
• Upgrade Tower = Click [Upgrade] while tower is selected
• Sell Tower = Click [Sell] while tower is selected

Tips:

• Enemies won't attack your bots, but they will attack your towers if they decide it's faster to go through them than around.
• The stone-price of towers increases as you build more of them. Make sure to build enough mining bots!
• You can sell and upgrade Rocks.

This was made in one week for the Pygame Community Jam 2 (4/1/21 - 4/8/21)

The game has no sound because the planet they're on has no atmosphere~
