Hey there Newgrounders
This is Steven from CerebralFix. This is our first game from our studio in little ol' New Zealand - the land of the Kiwis and Conchords!
As this is our first game we thought we'd have a go at a classic genre - Tower Defense! While we are all avid Tower Defensers we really wanted to bring in something new for you guys. So we came up with the tower casting system. You use the mouse to draw symbols that will summon/upgrade/sell towers! Not only that, you get to collect those little creepy guys souls after your towers blast them! Sweet!! So make sure you're on your game, you'll need to pay attention and use your brain a little.
We made this game in a little under a month. Pretty quick really, but we were keen to see what we could do in the short timeframe. We had 4 people working on it:
Ryan "Gotenks" Jenkins : Programming, Sound Effects and Music
Kevin Hsu : Art
Campbell Crawford : Art
Wilson Teo : Balancing
Steven Linton : Owning the other guys at Foosball!
Anyway, keep and eye out for these names, we will grow into a force to reckon with! We are committed to the gaming scene and the awesome communities like Newgrounds.
But like anything, you don't get it perfect the first time. We'd really like to hear what you guys think of our game...what you like...what you don't...what new stuff you'd stick in it!
Enough from me now...just play the game already!!
OK, a final note...
HOW TO PLAY:
Draw rune symbols with the mouse to build towers (just hold the left mouse button and start dragging)
The runes are shown on the panel at the bottom. You can upgade and sell using the same system.
Collect the souls (your money) by mousing over them once the creeps die.
For anybody having it rough:
earth boi + ice boi = win
maximize earth boi and spam ice bois to make damage from earth last longer
use ice bois ONLY for their slow, unless you got souls 4 days don't waste time upgrading them.
then add flame bois to certain points, space them out and let their damage cover the map, and spam ice mammoths to apply their slow everywhere.
Pick a nice spot or two for the lightning bois, they (at max level) are pretty good at stopping incoming rushes
WOOHOO!
This is one of the best tower defense games I have seen! It has very good graphics and the casting is very clever, but complicated. The freeplay is good too!
summoning
the summoning is unnescesary complicated
fun but chasing the gems sucks
expand on it but dont make my wrist hurt plz
Pretty tough castle defense
I loved the spell casting system. Never seen something like that on newgrounds before and it was really fun. Level of difficulty was perfect. "Soulcollecting" got a little tedious after a while, but it was another element that makes this game different than your average defense flash. The maps were well drawn, colorful and interesting. The "towers" or summoned monsters, in this game, looked just plain dumb. The could have been much more cooler and not wooly mamoths casting ice showers. WTF is that anyway?
