Author Topic: Boodals's Castle Defense - Alpha 0.2  (Read 1738 times)

My latest build, and probably my most active one in a long time.

Inspired by Hugum's Original Castle Defense, I finally started making one that I might finish! Made partially as a test for my new Computer, but also just for the sake of it. Its focusing on Game play rather than Realism, which is why the build isn't close to great. However its the events that will (Eventually) be the main part of this.

Low quality images go!
The castle before any upgrades.

The castle fully upgraded (Without weapons).

The spawn room, where you can either spectate, or join the game if the door is open (Controlled from admins).
(Credits to The_Legend for the things around the doors)

The spectator room, filled with lots of seats.

The list, which is toggle-able, and the text is changeable to display all the things you can buy.

A projectile-less action shot of zombies attempting to break through the wall, and also the Pit which has spikes, and sticks over it.

A closer pic of the Pit. There is a random chance that the zombies will jump over the pit, but you can decrease the chance by upgrading 'Camo'. The sticks are no-collided.

The control room, where the admin(s) click stuff.


It is currently in Alpha 0.2. Eventually it will go to Beta, and then I might release it. It needs a lot of bricks and add-ons though.

Features:

Your main objective is to survive. Simple enough if there weren't THOUSANDS OF EVIL, BRAIN HUNTING ZOMBIES!!!! at your doorstep. Gladly for you, each time a zombie dies, a large, floating counter increases by a certain amount. It has been discovered, than when shouting out loud to no-one what upgrade you want, it will magically appear, and the number will decrease. The same goes for weapons.

The upgrades are visible by a huge list that appears when all (Or sometimes most) of the zombies are dead. They include the following:

Castle Upgrades
   Castle Rooms
      Left
      Right
      Back
         Stairs
   Spikes (They aren't really spikes, but bricks designed to keep zombies from climbing over the walls)(Needs all rooms)
      Front (of castle)
      Back (and sides of castle)
   Cannons
      Left
      Right
      Upgradeable firing speed
         5 secs (Default)
         3 secs
         1 sec
         0.1 sec
         For left/right separately.

Land Upgrades
   Wall
      Spikes
      Stairs
      Gate (Closes automatically)
   Moat
   Pit
      Spikes (Kills when fallen in)
      Camo (Less chance of zombies jumping over)

Weapons/Items
   Bow (Free, default)
   Pills
   Gun
   Med-kit
   Guns Akimbo
   Propane Tank
   Minigun (Spawns in pallet-like box)
   Rocket Launcher

Current helpers:
Me (Everything)
The_Legend (Made a few bricks that look lovey)
Nickle (Gave me a list of suggestions)
Hugums (The whole base, and inspiration)

Alpha Testers:
The_Legend
Currently, no one else. I know a some people tested it in A0.1, but I didn't get their names.

If you want to help, come by my server some time and test it. You will only be added to the list if you actually help, and not just play. I'm not excepting extra eventers/builders, unless you're a good friend of mine. My computer has bad internet, so if anyone can host too, that will help.

Please only rate on the poll above. Not in the comments!

Very nice, these upgradeable castle minigames have always been my favorite.

i remember when their were great castle defenses... maybe this is one of them

Cool! Bots would be better than zombies though...

Looks cool.
But the grass..
It's TOO GREEN!

Awsome.

Relese save please

A few people asked if it would be bots, or zombies. I said zombies because they're easier. However I may do a vote on using Zombies or Bots. If I change it, it will probably be in Beta.

I shall change the color sometime.

Relese save please
Release*
And no. Not, atleast until its finished.

Bots are fairly simple...



Isn't this just like Hugums and about 20 other rip-offs?

Precisely. If it was original, people would complain it sucked and wasn't enough like ________'s.
Add a good builder's name there.

Yes.

Thats the point of it, the old ones were the best ones. And while i could make a much simpler way to buy things, or whatever, it wouldn't be the same as the old ones. All i'm really doing is remaking them, with modern events, and trying to keep the original-ness.

Ninja: Are you sure its the same one? There are many ones made, most of which look the same.
