Wow those graphics are awesome, nice job. I love impending doom music in the background 8)

#3

Nice!

That’s some sort of a RTS/Tower defense?

#4

That… is awesome. :smiley:

(Should threads like this go in the Games Center somewhere?)

#5

Yup, a bit of a hybrid between tower defence, RTS, and Cake Mania.

Why didn’t make the game in 3d if the various light effects would have been easier to implement than with 2d.

#7

Well, Chaz says it’d have been easier to implement in 3D but that would also have meant writing a whole new graphics renderer (we’ve been using the same ol’ sprite engine since Alien Flux), and a whole new graphics production pipeline. What we’ve got here is just the perfection of our 2D sprite rendering architecture, using multiple layers and sublayers and colouring. It was a bit fiddly to get it just right but now it’s done it’s a doddle.

awesome stuff there, the game is really looking great, just love the attention to detail.

#9

Have you played Harvest? Looks a bit similar, as @Voxar pointed out.

I can’t wait to play this. :smiley:

#10

looking really cool! :slight_smile:

#11

As it happens I have played Harvest (looong time ago) - it’s superficially similar in that there are little lines that glow between the buildings. But that is indeed the only similarity at all twixt the two.
