- Sizzling Hot Updates - What's cooking here's a peek - 21 September 2018
https://i.imgur.com/L6YADLi.gif We hope you see this update as a sizzling hot initiative. Its been work but exciting work for the team in New Zealand to bring to our customers something new and refreshing. In this update we want you to see a variety of different game level maps which we call Blueprints for you to engage with the Krakens in a different manner. Here is a sneak peek of some of what's been worked on so far. We have added 5 new blueprints (game level maps) We have also changed the way the blueprints are unlocked by winning the sectors in each Region The maps are in increasing levels of strategy in terms of path options You will also get to meet Mega Bosses on your way to victory We have addressed the Game re-balancing You will see an improvement in the visuals within the game Turret targeting system improvements have been accomplished Game performance increased by 110% when…
- Balancing Update V01.07.26 - 06/Jul/2018 - 6 July 2018
https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F31813515%2Fcb13a94b9fb7de0cc9c1a68f6b116772246850a0.jpg As a small team at Defense Task Force our development goal has always been to build the game where gamers who invest in the game would play the game not just for a few hours, days or weeks but for months and years. Achieving this goal is a Big Hairy Audacious Goal (BHAG). During our last update on 29 June we deployed a balancing update reducing the strength of the missile and tessla towers as both these towers were significantly over powered, unfortunately as a side effect this increased the difficulty levels in the game significantly we thought we had done something usefull, we had kept up the night but its a learning lessons for us as we realise there’s more to not getting enough sleep. It can have an impact on the people who have invested in you. Thanks to the comm…
- Short time horizons - Release Update V01.07.24 - 2 July 2018
https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F31813515%2F3339acdcd262b1debfbff89956e14e3dd7b9f7a1.jpg It's always the case we tend to do our best work when we're excited about something. Excitement moves into motivation and then work begins. We love our customers who have invested in our game and that motivates us. We have received constructive criticism and then feedback that can put your morale down from people sitting on the fence with opinions. As an indie team we had a choice to burry our heads into the ground and sulk or take the feedback received and deliver something that would help our current players. So here's what we have been upto recently: Added Extractor Capacity upgrade in global research options. We have added another global research option to allow the player to increase the energy income from each mission to a higher value. The default income can no…

- Game Update - Multiple Enhancements and New Blueprint - 24 June 2018
These enhancements and updates were made possible largely due to valuable feedback from the amazing community. You have our deepest gratitude. Update V01.07.22 - 23/Jun/2018: This update has a number of adjustments to address any "grinding" in the game By default all level 1 towers now unlocked Energy costs for research significantly reduced in some cases by 90% Energy costs unlocking and deploying blueprints slightly reduced Starting energy given to a new player profile reduced by 50% as all costs are significantly lower VSync enabled to resolve any screen tearing. Frame rate capped at monitor refresh rate which is usually 60 fps. This is to avoid wasting GPU usage where not necessary Music is now muted when the tutorial window is opened so as not to interfere with the tutorial videos. Units and Towers Encyclopedia readability of various stats is improved significantly New Blueprint "P…
- Defense Task Force is Live! - 19 June 2018
Defense Task Force is here and available today on Steam. We want to thank you all for supporting us throughout this journey. The hour has finally come where we sit in front of our computers in New Zealand and press that “Go Live” button. After 2 solid years of sweat, tears, and trying times we are finally ready to release our creation to the world. Getting to this moment put a great deal of strain on our lives, financially, emotionally, and educationally. As many of you know this road was not easy, especially after losing the funding from our Kickstarter. But as you can see we are revitalized and stronger than ever. We hope you will share in our bravery and support a game that we loved to build for you. We’d like to thank our family, our friends, our extremely supportive Kickstarter backers who put that initial burst of energy to bring our dreams to reality. We would like to thank our b…

Hustle as we know it is pushing through pain and exhaustion in the chase of achieving the bigger carrots. We got a bit tired of this kind of mindset. By hustling in developing Defense Task Force at the start we ended up tired, burnt out and just churning our wheels getting no where. We asked ourselves why are we doing this? Life is short. After our kickstarter campaign not pulling through we asked ourselves should we launch another campaign or use that same time to finish the game with the little time we have. We decided…
