I love tower defense games, and it seems crazy to me how few tower defense games are available for Playdate. It would be awesome if someone knows a way to make a Pulp tower defense. Either way, I’ll try to make a demo/prototype soon for it.
I think a tower defense game is possible in pulp, although I can't imagine how many things it needs to keep track of

I tried to do it myself about a year ago and ran out of steam/ability haha. I also wish there were more! One problem the dev of satOlite mentioned is limiting the number of objects that have to be tracked as a big challenge, mainly taxing the hardware. Though it feels like Angelpop (sheer number of onscreen objects) and Lolife (Pulp specifics on having multiple instances of the same tile) have figured out a couple of things in that space that should open up possibilities. I can't wait to see what you come up with!
