So funny to me that you took the 20% fire damage boost with the intention that it buffed sniper, but then didn't build a single sniper for the boss fight even tho high damage single target would have been pretty optimal for the big boss

@thescatterpiratesquarepant7935 3 ай бұрын

Multiplayer tower defence maps in earcraft 3 (custoom maps) werr actually fun and insane Obviously the map was built, but your towers would be like the Tetris bricks. So lets say a enemy was 1 unit, the path would be 10 or 15 units wide, and you would make rows of towers alternating from left to right to make a sort of zigzag maze.

Curious to see how different heroic difficulty is because you definitely got away with a couple carefree levels lol. I love these types of indie games tho so I’m glad you cover them, this and Rouge Tower are my favorites which make me wish that they were brought to Xbox or just more platforms in general tho. I could see this game becoming a really successful hit if maybe a multiplayer element was introduced. Where one player defends against the other who sends out enemies and has card abilities that could change the geometry of placed tiles or buff units.

Why anybody would want *sniper* tower to target nearest piece? Entire purpose of sniper tower is RANGE. That was most infuriatingly amusing moment in this video. Snipers are for "highest hp", period. Only in dire emergency "furthest". Rest of settings is useless for this tower.
