Hello,

In the last month, we have focused on completing some of the core gameplay features, as well as adding new towers and items with unique mechanics. We have cleaned up our repository and organized the backlog for easy tracking. Additionally, we have prepared releases for popular platforms such as Windows, MacOS, and Linux, allowing a broader audience to test our game. 

Gameplay

Towers

A total of 160 towers, including upgrades, have been completed. This encompasses nearly all common towers that will be in the game. Scripting has been done for even more towers, with models and icons for them currently in progress.

Actions for towers

Added actions that can be performed on the currently selected tower:

• Sell
• Upgrade
• Check info

Tooltips

Tooltips have been implemented for towers and items. These tooltips are displayed when you mouse over tower buttons or items.

Items

A total of 38 items have been finished, including scripting.

300 icons for all items, including oils, have been completed. The work on scripting all of the items is still ongoing. The design of the icons is minimalistic, with more details added as the rarity increases. For example:

Items can now be moved between item storage and towers so you can use items to enhance your towers.

Item display has also been improved, with a colored background added to indicate the rarity of the item. However, this is not the final design. The complete HUD design will be carefully considered for the next version.

Selecting towers and creeps

Made it easier to select units. Units that are about to be selected are now highlighted.

Added a HUD element that displays information about the currently selected unit.

Wave status

A new HUD element has been added to display wave status. It contains information about incoming waves as well as a button to start the next wave early.
