https://studioavanto.itch.io/holding-on A short, atmospheric, narrative-focused tower defense game about getting over a one-sided breakup. Made for Ludum Dare 50. You've been dumped. With each day that passes, you're contacted by friends and family as you continue hanging on to something you've already lost. Each wave, you may drag and drop a tower onto an empty space to begin building it, onto an unfinished tower to complete it, or onto a completed tower to upgrade it. Unfinished towers don't fire at enemies. You can also hover over a tower with your cursor, focusing on it to increase its firing rate. Each time you lose a life, you may place additional towers, but the difficulty increases; the themes and topics represented in your thoughts and chats increase with them. The game features atmospheric aesthetics, touching topics, and relaxing gameplay for a pleasant playthrough. Ultimately though, the goal is only to let go. The game contains themes of grieving and relationships. CHANGE LOG The original jam version without bug fixes can be found as holding_on_win_original.zip. April 5, 2022
