Always been my favourite tower defence game, unique by being a first person shooter
Its a nice tower defense game. Can be beaten in 8 hours if you know what you’re doing. A lot of the towers aren’t very useful. You’ll mostly use the gatling and laser tower, as well as sometimes the violator tower for defense. For an old title, runs well and had no issues on Windows 11. I’d give it a good 7.5/10. Decent overall experience and you get what you expect. Considering the age of the game, don’t expect any tweaks, however, if they did some balancing, they could really improve on tower variety and rewrite how stats are described with how tower stats worked. Could really bump the score to a 8/10. The game does need some pacing improvements and more weapon tweaking, but for the time it did well. If the game was released today, I’d be more harsh with my score, which would be a high 6.
обожаю игры от этого разработчика. Даже запуская старые игры, как эту, я не беспокоюсь о том, что она будет всрата. Ценники всегда вкуснейшие, а игровой опыт наикрутейший. В общем и целом советую к покупке)
Awesome 3d TD shooter
Fun with friends.
I don't feel like this has aged well and when I compare the tower defense to games like Defense Grid 2 it really doesn't hit for me. Playing in the world with the towers seems like a fun gimmick but I think it hurts more than helps. Being on the ground floor means you don't have a good view of the play field (as compared to standard top-down view), the enemies can bump and jostle you, your towers can get in your way, they add some enemies that directly attack you to cause you problems at some point. I don't feel like they make it clear exactly how you can improve your setup and some of the towers are very bad. Example of a terrible tower: The mortar seems like it's meant to be the defacto AoE (it's in the default loadout), however, it's very slow, long range, and I'm pretty sure it can't see past other towers; this is a tower type that you'd usually throw way back in the distance where you have some blank area and let help keep up the DPS on groups but here the primary swarm enemies basically aren't visible to anything that isn't directly along the path. I think being on the ground floor, the ragdolls blocking your view, and perhaps the UI make it hard to gauge exactly how well your towers are doing and figure out what is really effective. I'm sure it's possible to figure out the strategies but this feels like it makes it less intuitive and less fun. There are a few other pain points, like the checkpoint system feeling slow (no instant rewind like DG2), if you lose it likes to do an animation and a "You Lose" joke before letting you rewind or restart and get back in the game. If you get this for free or it is cheap, then sure, give it a try, but otherwise I'd put this as an interesting historical game more than a classic or evergreen.
sanctu-mary coffee stain (kahve lekesi) firmasının ilk çıkardığı günümüzde unutulmuş bir galaktik kule savunması oyunu. çıktığı zamanda bir süre tutulmuş, ancak malumunuz bugünkü kıvamına çimento harcına kum gibi keçi simülasyonu eklenince gözlerden biraz düşüyor. şirket temelidir aslında modern oyunlardan görüyoruz. grafik kalitesi pek şaşmamış. yeteri kadar oynayarak düzeltmemi sunacağım artıları ++oynanış ++grafikler +başarımlar eksileri: (kayda değer bir hata göremedim daha) [5/5] üstünden 3 yıl geçmişti ilk oynadığımda ve hala aklımda. demek ki kaliteli.
Fun multiplayer tower defence game.
a first person shooter tower defence with waves. Build upgrade engage. Surprisingly fun and addictive.
Pretty fun ngl, the mix of FPS and TD works really well!
