Tower Lab

cool concept

FANTASTIC game, get this, immediately gifted to half a dozen of my best mates. The wife gets a giggle out of it too, a lot of fun

I have followed this game in development for over a year. Now that its finally here I can say that I'm absolutely in love with it. This is most certainly is a game for a certain kind of person and not for everyone. I cant wait to see how this game develops further in early access.

Satisfatório

Physics as a base for a Tower Defense game does not work when the towers cannot defend. I felt like I had no agency in this game, none of my towers felt responsive. Everything does knockback, and whether that explosion is in the right direction or it launches the enemy straight into the base is up to chance. Even for the times you can aim your knockback in a specific direction- all the towers fire simultaneously in long 5+ second intervals. There will just be times where whatever you set up may as well not be there. It would be up to skill if everything wasn't locked into ginormous grids where everything can only face in four different directions and only has a rage of The Tile Directly Infront Of It. You will end up doing anything to feel like you are in control, but you are given so little resources to HAVE said control that either you will win or lose and its not up to you to decide that; It's the game's choice to make. The best tower in the game is a singularity that can instantly kill all enemies around it by crushing them, negating the whole physics-based gameplay system this game wants to have. The singularity last so long it has basically zero downtime. It goes against everything the game wants to emphasize for gameplay, minus the fact that you can push the singularity round, but there is no reason to not just put 100 of them around the map and call it a day. I wanted to make a singularity with a fan behind it to push the enemies away, off the map so they would fall and die, but the cooldowns between it working were so long it made me instantly lose the game. The fastest things can really get is an average 10-20% cooldown reduction, but when the base fire rate is once every 5, 10, or 15 seconds that just isn't enough. Enemies will be long past whatever plan you had by the time anything times up properly. I really tried to make this game work, but it didn't. I imagine in a few years and with some total overhauls of the balance and basis that the game is going for it COULD be something, but right now it comes off as just a proof of concept.

在有中文翻译和没有中文翻译之间选择了假装自己有中文翻译 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 神了。 看见开发者回复了，说是有bug更新了，我退完款又重新购买下载回来看，结果还不如不修复。 现在选中文不仅不会修改语言，还会让游戏闪退，我也没找到日志输出在哪所以不清楚具体报错。 不过我觉得还是宽容一点，毕竟是小团队，决定再等等后续吧，反正繁体和英语也看得懂。 但有简中是态度问题，希望快点解决。

물리엔진이 적용된 타워디펜스 굉장히 신선해서 재밌다
