Devourer Tower Defense Assault (Ver 1.0.1 Release!)
Finally, after months of blood, sweat and tears, I'm ready to reveal the project I've been working on.
Introducing Devourer Tower Defense Assault! (DevourerTDA for short)
DevourerTDA is a new evolution of the Tower Defense genre that introduces a competitive aspect to gameplay. One side plays The Devourer, an evil force bent on consuming the world. The other side, the Defenders work co-operatively to hold off The Devourer long enough to build their Superweapon that will finally defeat The Devourer once and for all.
The Devourer controls a single hero unit with unique skills and can purchase items. He summons creeps to assault the Defenders, gathers income, purchases tomes to upgrade his stats and takes to the field to attack Defender towers directly. The Devourer wins by reaching the end of each Defender’s playing area, which allows him to reach the Altar of Blasphemies, containing ancient power he needs to claim this world.
The Defenders build towers to hold off the Devourer. Each Defender race has 40 available towers, with each race having unique characteristics and themes. The Defenders need to Interrogate creeps to gain Information, which lets them build the Superweapon, finally defeating the Devourer once and for all.
There are currently two Races available for the Defenders.
First, the Light-Touched. The Light-Touched are a hardy folk, secure in their Faith. They are most comfortable at the forefront of battle, as the Light reinforces their defenses.
Overall Tower Design:
Arrow Damage: Medium
Splash Damage: Pathetic
Anti-Air: Excellent
HP: High
Range: Short
Special: Lots of Healing
“Tank” style towers
The second race is the Mechanist's Union. More comfortable in a workshop than any sort of social setting, these misfits and workaholics take to the field to see how well their machines can make elder demons explode.
Overall Tower Design:
Damage: High
Arrow: Pathetic
Splash: Excellent
Anti-Air: Moderate
HP: low
Range: High
Special: Extremely Slow Speed, but can blast from damn near anywhere.
Work together as the Defenders to hold off the Devourer! Break through the defense lines as the Devourer to claim this world!
More information on the map, including available tower types, Last Stand information, and tips are available in the DevourerTDA Player's Manual document, attached to this post.
DevourerTDA works best with 5 players (1 Devourer and 4 Defenders). There is no single player option, though tutorial text is available in the Quests screen, which would be easier to read while in single-player.
The map is available for download here:http://www.filefront.com/16644511/DevourerTDA Ver 1.0.1.w3x
Unfortunatly, it's too big for my attachment quota. That version is protected. Anyone who wants access to the unprotected version, please email me at: [email protected]. Make sure to include your thehelper.net user name.
Any and all criticism, feedback, etc is greatly appreciated. Thanks for taking a look at my work!
Edit: New version of the map! Fixed Description and Author Name, no gameplay changes.
