Tower Defense Template for Sale!

Hi everyone :slight_smile:

After making a tower defense tutorial a few weeks ago, i’ve finally got round to improving it and making it a fully working game. All the main features you would expect from a tower defense game have been implemented, such as; an easy level creation process, enemy movement/sprites, multiple placeable towers with upgrades, scoring/health/money systems and most importantly of all its easy to improve and edit!

I tried to comment all of the important parts of the code to make sure that people can understand whats going on and allow them to edit it more easily. As well as the source code you get most of the PSD files used, the images and sound files.

Heres the link for more information:

That is pretty damn impressive.

It would be worth buying just to see how you did some of the stuff, even if you not interested in a Tower Defence game.

Thanks Dave, glad you like it :slight_smile:

The main aim was to cover a fairly large array of different functions, therefore like you said, even if you don’t really like tower defense it should still come in helpful. [import]uid: 69826 topic_id: 29833 reply_id: 119621[/import]

Just bought my copy! This is an awesome learning tool to create Tower Defense games. They’re becoming really popular these days. My first tower defense game was Cartoon Wars. I got so addicted to it then I started buying more tower defense games.

Thanks again for this template! Too bad I’m American so I payed a little bit more :frowning: [import]uid: 69494 topic_id: 29833 reply_id: 119627[/import]

Thanks for purchasing Neil! :slight_smile:

Many hours were lost at university procrastinating on Balloons tower defense, but it was definitely worth it!

Ahhh sorry Neil, thats Paypal for you! I’ll look into adding more payment options soon when i’ve got some more templates to add. [import]uid: 69826 topic_id: 29833 reply_id: 119636[/import]

Looks like a very good template, I will buy it sometime later this year when I’m ready to release my next game. Does this use a* pathfinding or is the path just specified? [import]uid: 29181 topic_id: 29833 reply_id: 119658[/import]

Good luck Jamie, may pick this up sometime - looks very well done :slight_smile: [import]uid: 52491 topic_id: 29833 reply_id: 119662[/import]

Nice looking template! We may be doing a TD in the future, but I am going to buy it regardless. I am pretty sure I could learn something!

I am also curious if it is waypoints or a pathfinding algorithm. I know that you did a tutorial on TD games a while back that used waypoints.

Thanks NinjaPig and Peach! Feel free to get it whenever you want :slight_smile:

Hi Vellum thanks for the purchase!

In regards to pathfinding, this template uses waypoints. The maps themselves are too small to warrant the use of pathfinding in my opinion. It does seem like a much requested feature though and therefore i could make up another version which makes use of A* pathfinding. I just need more hours in the day to go about doing that :smiley:

Nice! Bookmarked to come back to purchase when I’m ready to create a Tower Defense type game.

If you made a tower defense template with the A* algorithm, I’d be willing to pay a bit more. [import]uid: 14218 topic_id: 29833 reply_id: 119778[/import]

Sounds good to me Naomi :slight_smile: thanks.

Ok I’ll definitely get round to sorting out an A* version soon. I can’t this week as I’m all booked up but I’ll do it as soon as I can.

Also, does anyone have some suggestions to other templates that may be good to have? I want to try and get a few more products on the site over the next few weeks.

Thanks :slight_smile: [import]uid: 69826 topic_id: 29833 reply_id: 119794[/import]

Yeah, if this was a*, and you could place the towers in any tile, I would buy it in a heartbeat. What would be a cool feature too, is when you place a tower, it effects the dirt path. You should make it do that, so the dirt changes lets say if you place a tower it it’s way! [import]uid: 29181 topic_id: 29833 reply_id: 119814[/import]

Ok i will definitely make an A* edition then. Im already half way through doing a space shooter template, so once that is done i will get this new version sorted.

Were you thinking of a game somewhere along the lines of this? http://www.kongregate.com/games/preecep/desktop-tower-defense
