- Steam Tower Defense Festival UPDATE - 29 July 2024
Hello everyone I have developed a new Undead campaign for the Steam Tower Defense Festival. You can now play the first level "Underground Ritual". The new campaign also introduces a new game mode in which there is no set number of lives, but a main building must be defended. The opposing creeps run to the end of the path and then attack the next tower or the main building. If you like it, please let me know. I am currently planning another 4 new levels. Have fun with the new faction!

- Devlog #03 - 6 November 2021
The last month has been very busy. I finally managed to release a new Update including most of the announced and some unannounced new content/modifications like: - Bonus level for the human campaign - Update of the level selection menu (Funmaps and Campaign) - New HUD - Minimap The unannounced change was the overhaul of the level selection. I wanted to include a short description for the Funmaps as well as a label for the campaign level. I think this makes it much clearer what the level is about. With this update I unfortunately produced a bug by implementing the minimap (mainly at the Funmaps) which broke the UI so that it was impossible to build tower. I fixed that by reconfiguring the minimap camera in the affected maps. Sorry for that! After that I started to overhaul the steam page. I have created a new eartly access trailer: I took new screenshots: And I have redone the “About” se…

Thanks for playing
- Devlog #02 - 5 October 2021
Hello everybody, Welcome to CreepWars TD's second devlog. For the last four weeks I have been working intensively on the revision of the UI. I got active support from Maxim Dobroshtan. Together we developed several designs for the in-game HUD. Here the "old" status: At the last Devlog I showed you the first sketch for the new HUD: Maxim then created the graphics in more detail and the result looked like this: I really liked the buttons on this design. The background on the other hand had a relatively wide border that unnecessarily covered much of the field of view. So I replaced the background graphic with a scaled button graphic: At the same time, I came up with the idea of making the task panel translucent to not unnecessarily restrict the view as the panels already take up a large part of the screen. After a short review we sketched this design: We liked that so much that Maxim dre…
- Devlog #01 - 30 August 2021
Hi everyone, Welcome to the first devlog of CreepWarsTD. In the past I have only posted Devlogs on Twitter and Facebook but I figured that it would be much better to post them where you are ːsteamhappyː So for the "older devlogs" feel free to visit Twitter: https://twitter.com/OrangeSceptical or Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScepticalOrange It's been a while since the last update. Unfortunately I had some data loss. But I am back on track now. I have implemented a minimap in the lower right corner. You can click it to jump to every point on the map. It will be included in the next update. I also decided to add another level to the human campaign. This level will also be included in the next update. Here is a little sneak peak: The second campaign will include some indoor levels. For one of them I have designed a lava/fire area with a Lavaelemental. https://youtu.be/XcqhUMrBAhg I've…
- 444 days of development: CreepWars TD - 30 March 2021
The consistent and structured development of CreepWars TD started in January 2020. In 2019 I loosely programmed prototypes for different types of games following several tutorials. During this time I also started to mess around with asset packs from the unity3d asset store. While at the university I really loved playing custom TD maps from Warcraft 3, so the idea of creating my own tower defense arose very fast. Getting deeper into the development, I was not very pleased with the TD templates I found. But since on the other hand my skillset was not yet that advanced, I thought that it would be a good idea to start with a real time strategy (RTS) template, which offers much more functions and then modify it to a TD game. (Which in my mind is a similar approach like creating TD Mods for great titles like Warcraft 3 or Dota 2) This approach seemed to be very programming heavy but it would…
- Update 0.0.9 optical overhaul of the human campaign - 10 March 2021
Hi there, To make the scenery feel more alive I have created new tree models which are moving in the wind. I have decided to replace all the old tree models with those new ones so I went trough all existing levels replacing the trees. While doing so I also modified parts of the terrain and some props to slightly overhaul the whole look of the existing maps. Before: After: I have also reached out to Maxim Dobroshtan, a 2d concept artist, to create the key art for the game. So far he made the new Cover art for steam: And the new logo: Please let me know if you like the new style of the environment. Thanks for playing!
- Update 0.0.8 - 28 November 2020
Hello there, With this update I added the last level of the human campaign. The high priest Locath finished his ritual and is now able to summon powerful allies. Additonaly I added an infobox with the armour type of the next wave. I also fixed the map "Circle Map" by adding a new navigation system for creeps to prevent them from getting stuck. Thank you for playing!
