Topic, Game "Neon Defence"

  @Demonic, I agree, I totally dislike the idea of gems, you should just be able to upgrade your tower.

  Indeed... D:

Perhaps the gems gain EXP. as they kill enemies, and the upgrading can be kept simple. :/

  But thats what i HATE about gem craft, the upgrading of gems.

  Nawz, I'm pretty sure MARc wants to make this like gemcraft. D:

Hmm... wait, maybe, instead of amount of gems, it's refinement? :/

E.G. Wind tower costs a lvl. 5 earth gem. :/

  Maybe you can have many diferent tower types,
and gems are like money, like a wind tower would cost 5 fire gems, 5 water gems and 3 earth gems.

  Well, actually, perhaps there's hope yet... :/

If red gems are fire gems, green gems are earth gems and blue gems are water gems, then there are many fusion possibilities

Fire + water = steam

fire + earth = ?

water + earth = mud

fire + fire = refined fire

water + water = refined water

earth + earth = refined earth

it seems to make sense. :P

  I think you should just give up on the idea of gems...

Gem craft was the most boring game ever, because combining gems for hours is not fun.
Unless you completely change the game play, this would just end up a cheap rip off of a already bad game.

  right, im making a function to fuse(combine) gems, should I make the new gem stats the sum of the old ones or something else?
[edit] I need solid red(hue=0) gems now, no other colours...
[re-edit] no white lol not red XD
[re-re-edit] wait never mind no gems :_
I need vectorised gems to allow colour changes when merging XD

  perfect allyally :D

 
Hows that? Its was a bit simple so I improved it,

  Can I have a go at improving it? Texture ect.

  it looks really wierd lol
I think i'll give making my own a go...
[edit] made a new tower template:

[re-edit] I think it will look better if there's a slot on the turret...

  Heres the new base-



it looks a lot different with the turets on top, i tested it in photoshop with each turret.

  Indeed he does. :/

  Shiro Got a point :)

  I like the retro, top-down sight, it makes me feel nostalgic :).

  Really?! I hope not! I like the slight angle to everything! It adds a little something to the game, I like it,

  remaking the game not having it at angle anymore...read previous posts...

  Yes, but it has a little angle to it like the other towers do,

  allyally its supposed to be top-down(birds eye) view...

 
Its not great, but hey, it could be worse,

  lol i'll pick what suits my needs most XD

  i know, im going a make a new base, if AllyAlly dosnt beat me to it.

  yeah but I dont like the base (no offane) I want a 40x40 suare base aswell XD
[edit] Gundu its a bit worse than before I think

  gundu! on early, are you? :P

  Does your net still fail? D:

  Ill have a go at making the Base too,

  Cant you just stick it in the base? Ill make a slot in the corner of the base for a gem.

  just one critisism with turrets...I needed a slot on the circle centre bit for the gems lol
I should have mentioned :_

  SHOOOOOOOP DA WOOOOOOOOP >:D

they look pretty good, actually. :/
