Cheaters never prosper, only the good die young, yadda yadda yadda...but most importantly, the hero always wins. Which is unfortunate, considering you're the villain. But you can last as long as possible before your inevitable demise! Spawn troops and towers in this reimagined take on a tower defense game!
Tutorial
This is a spin on a traditional tower defense game. The hero comes from the top and his goal is to make it to your evil lair at the end. To place towers, click anywhere there is an orange highlight when you hover over it, and choose what to place at the bottom of the screen. Blue highlights are for placing barriers on the path. Keep an eye on your influence in the top right. Use that to pay for towers and barricades.
The hero will always respawn (because hero’s do that) and it’s your job to last as long as you can.
Controls: Move with W and S, zoom with scroll wheel or Q and E, use your mouse to select spaces and place units!
Units can only be placed when a square is selected and when you have enough influence (Currency in the top right)
Special Considerations: There are some balancing issues, meaning the hero may take a bit longer to overwhelm your defenses.
Credits:
- Tanner: Every single piece of art was created by Tanner!
- Mitch: All game logic and programming, plus the music. (Single short song was all we had time for)
- Skyler: Animations, balancing, and some dialogue.
- Tate: All voice acting, including the actual recordings and some of the writing.
