OOCTD is a sort of Tower Defense game with constantly changing Controls!

This game was created for the 2020 GMTK Game Jam. The theme was Out Of Control.

In OOCTD, you must defend your Space Station from an endless horde of drone attacks. The automated systems are down and the enemy keeps scrambling your commands.

You have to pay close attention to your console as it interprets the jumbled signals. Attempt to Take Control of three defense towers in an attempt to fend off the assault.
