BugsTD is an incredibly simple tower defense game.
Due to the fact that I was on vacation, I had quite limited time, so I decided to use Unity. I believe that the total amount of time I worked on this game is less than 12 hours.
The controls are relatively straightforward:
- Scroll to zoom in/out.
- Hold the middle mouse button and drag to pan.
- Click on the tower types in the upper-right corner to select them.
- Click on the ground in order to place a tower.
- Click the 'play' button in the lower-left corner to start the next wave.
Hopefully everything else is relatively self-explanatory. The enemies move along the red path. If they get to the goal, you lose lives; if you lose all your lives, you lose the game. The battery-looking symbol represents currency; the lower-left corner shows your current currency and the amount required to purchase a tower is displayed next to each tower.
Towers have several basic differences. In order from top to bottom as listed on screen:
- Range of 6 grid squares; shoots every 0.7 seconds; does 1-2 damage; projectiles travel 6 grid squares per second
- Range of 6 grid squares; shoots every 2 seconds; does 5-8 damage; projectiles travel 4 grid squares per second
- Range of 10 grid squares; shoots every 0.05 seconds; does 0.1-0.7 damage; projectiles travel 8 grid squares per second
