Grim Nights (pixel graphics tower defence game)

Spotted this gem a couple days ago, it's pretty simple with a matching low price, but quite amazing gameplay.

It's a 2D tower defence/colony management game, in which you harvest resources and try to survive 13 nights of zombie waves.

The map is fixed, but there's plenty of strategy involved. You get villagers with random skills, which can make your early game harder or easier if you are lucky. Zombies come in waves, and also lurk in the tombs underground. You need to advance your technology before the nastier things show up.

Blue Dwarf has been happy lately. He did some !!science!! recently. He admired a fine forum post lately. He was enraged by a forum troll recently. He was upset by the delayed release of the new version of Dwarf Fortress lately. He took joy in planning a noble's death recently.

I just beat it on normal difficulty.

A neat undocumented trick is to build several taverns, that increases the rate of attracting new villagers. That lets you kill the bad ones faster.
