Version 02, tried it first time ever and won, I found it entertaining and not too hard nor easy. Very good game idea. Summon Footmen ability reloaded when it was most needed, it has just right cooldown.

> Golems are not affected by the Arrow ability

Or Cannons. Or plenty other stuff. They are magic immune :p

> Spawn Points can Heal

You're most likely the first to notice.

> if a creep kills a Footman (or any unit you control) and there is no more unit around, it will stop moving

That's normal.
However,
- it happens extremely rarely
- it only lasts until some new Creep nearby calls for help

> I wouldn't learn that at all

You have no idea how fast people can click...


> it has just right cooldown

Well, obviously not.
The perfect time for not being available would be precisely the moment you need it the most.

Indeed it's fast, but by clicking, you lose your concentration on your tower.
If you keep your eye on the tower, you might use an ability when its cooldown is over.
And clicking units for 15 minutes :p oh my finger...

I can't click really fast btw :p

> They are magic immune

I know :p

Yet another update.

Bigger, greener, more teeth!

There should be more activity in this version.
If nothing else, there will be more on your end.

It's getting somewhere :p


As usual, the map's in post #1.

My time was 4.21 or somewhere close, it is currently pretty difficult, most dangerous are ranged units, who I hate most, because they actually attack tower not my summoned creeps.

The only problem for me was.. I didn't understand the rune-thing-item-increase-charge-system. I didn't know why I was hunting the runes.

I understood why we have to cache runes, If you collect five (5) runes your Tower gets one item, you can change which item you get from special ability on your Tower. Buying random creep is important also because gold is used only for that.

The Tower(tm) has three items.
Those items need charges to work.
Every five collected Runes, you get one charge to one of the items.
What item exactly, of the three available, that is depends on the setting on the "ability".

If the ability says "Charm", the charge will go to your "Charm" item.
If the ability says ...

The most useful would be Heal :p. Thanks for telling me, gotta try again soon.

Before that I am working on my own defense map. (updating this post then)

Victory.

Oh hell yeah, beat it on second try (didn't know you could buy creeps first one D: ). It was a lot more difficult this time, the tower went down to 80 HP at one point. A lot more action now ^^

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
