BoTTleD - tower defense demo

[matteus]

Great concept, comedy choice of shakira remix music if i'm right?

This game is really cool. What determines the length of a game? I've tried it a few times and had a very short game and a very long game, so is there a random amount of time the game runs?

Also, I've found that if a tower is sold, its impossible to build a new one in the same location, as if the old tower is still there.

A possible improvement (maybe) would be to let the player select a tower even if there isn't enough money to build it, so that the player can get ready with setting a location to build while waiting for the money to accumulate.

Its a great idea, yet another one of those games where I wonder why it wasn't done before on the console.

By the way, ever thought of implementing the speed setting like in Defender Quest? When I was playing the demo I found myself cranking it up while I had to wait while slowing down (or freezing) when I had to do lots of commands at once. Note that it also lets you immediately toggle between running and frozen with a button press.

That's not doable, as speeding up essentially means running more than one world cycle per frame. It would lag.

Thanks, fixing the selling bug. There may be another bug if your game is very short.

@matteus
Kinda-sorta, I liked the banjo remix, and it was planned for another demo, just like the font. But I won't talk about that until someone recognizes the font

There may be another bug if your game is very short.

I took some screenshots, game was being played in Fusion, via Windows 10. I may try it on a flash cart, but I can't do that until next week.

Very short game:




Very long game:

Found it, I think.

[Lichtkegel]

Are there any updates from this game?

[roce]

I made some bugfixes and optimizations, but nothing more. Haven't touched this since Oct. Whether it becomes a full game some time or not, well it depends on whether time & motivation coincide

[roce]

Something may be happening in the future

Something may be happening in the future

That sounds very good

[Lichtkegel]

Any news?

[roce]

It's in the queue, but with some other projects being before it.

[Lichtkegel]

Maybe something to share now?

Stars didn't align & other projects took priority at MegaCat. I'm on a different console right now, and for Genesis there's Lethal Wedding coming out soon. Yikes, it's really been two years?
