  1. Episode 324: Tower Defense

    I'm ready for more AI War talk! Love that game! Michael did a fine job getting you guys to talk roguelikes, so I say keep the heat on, Michael!
  2. Episode 324: Tower Defense

    Still a great show for sure! I had actually saved this episode as you three brought up some great points about the genre that a hobbyist gamedev (and I'm sure real ones as well) would do well to revisit in the future. Spelk again had the same thought as I had about TDs really hitting the sweet spot for RTS turtlers...TDs have turned an RTS strategy into a full-fledged game genre.
  3. Episode 324: Tower Defense

    Sorry, robotslave. I didn't do my homework. It was indeed a Flash game. Thanks for the correction. Revenge of the Titans is another good one spillblood pointed out that had played around with some different mechanics and made a very fun TD that I still love to jump back into.
  4. Episode 324: Tower Defense

    Agree with the sentiments above. Loved the episode, but was wondering why there were only really four examples were discussed (although several were mentioned as noted in OP) and all without a mention of mobile ones, and not even the mobile ones that got ported to PC (I'm thinking of you, Kingdom Rush). I know it is impossible to bring up all of the different TD games, but the platform does play a pretty big part in this particular genre, in my opinion, to not get mentioned. Tablets are just too perfect of a platform on which to play tower defense so at least a nod would have sufficed. Glad spelk made a great list—would have done the same thing at midpoint of the episode if I hadn't been driving at the time. All that being said, still a great episode! Really enjoy listening to these guys each week!
