"Danger! AI is taking over, you must control the Beast!"

Kaiju City is a City builder crossed with a turn-based strategy game, made for the 2024 GMTK Jam


Take control of a giant Kaiju in large scale battles, throwing buildings at enemies to ultimately (albeit destructively) protect the city.

When the dust settles, rebuild the city ready for the next attack. But do bare in mind, each human casualty from the previous fight will result in a fee.

It's pretty good! The controls are a bit hard to grasp, but there's a lot for potential strategies!

I think it would benefit a "cancel" button, because I often moved somewhere by accident and lost a turn.

That said, it's a solid game entry :)
