Seconded! (give or take "I prefer it to be be better than Geehee TD" )

[sir spence99]

I never played geehee before and my review is ................... so yeah mine will (hopefully) be better otherwise I fail ROFL

So what I want to know is what do you look for in a TD?

[thacannon]

... Towers?

Eh, I guess it's a given.

Well, I actually prefer TD games that have towers that can do other stuff, such as give money or increase range.

[sir spence99]

well other than the obvious but do you like a set path one that can be changed combos like that kind of stuff

What do you look for in a td?

Heres what i have learned from my 2 first games:
rSTD 1 - simple graphics, simple interface, very balanced, challenging
rsTD 2 - amazing graphics, nice interface, horribly unbalanced, too easy

What have i learned?
well rsTD 1 was a much bigger success, even thought it had '****ty' graphics (grey bg, circles for monsters :/)

Why was it such a success? becouse it was so SIMPLE and BALANCED
rsTD1 A. had a nice balance, required players to build towers in the most ideal places to be most efficient in their decisions. and B. had graphics sufficient to show that upgraded towers looked "BETTER" therefore they are BETTER.

Those visual ques are all it took to make players understand the concept.

Alot of players didn't need a "tutorial" to play rsTD1, it was straight forward, build towers and upgrade!

So the lesson here is: BE SIMPLE, and HAVE BALANCE. you need to pre-calculate your numbers so that is doesnt end up like rsTD-2 on the star level, which you can play forever :/

The key with rsTD1 was that tower damages advanced linearly (x^1), while creep strength advanced exponentially, which forced you to be efficient in using your money and placement, and although there is no 'maxiumum' level, there is a point where it becomes impossible to have enough damage to kill the creeps.

Maybe you could make a game which doesn't have some anoying sound constantly:P Make the game exciting? Halo theme or so, lol xD

I love that game. It's a shame there is no sequel. I haven't even seen another TD like it.

Well, Tyren. That's a very nice game. I like it, too.
