towerdefense's Issues

Add svgs for damaged game objects

Damaged game objects (i.e. health below 50%) should change their appearance.

Increase the enemy spawn rate

Currently most of the time only one enemy is on the field.
The spawn rate should be increased - at least in later enemy waves.

Adding a sell option

Maybe it would be useful to allow the player to sell some game objects, so that the game field will be available for other objects.

Split "bullet loop"

Each "shooting game object" should have its own bullet loop.
Currently all bullets are spawned at the same time.

Increase fire rate and decrease bullet damage

The bullet rate should be increased, but the damage decreased.

Different placeable game objects

Similar to "Enemy" and "ShootingEnemy", the currently available player classes should be refactored, so that
new player game objects can be created/derived from them. (see #13)

Manually collect coins from enemies

Maybe enemies should drop the coins, so that the player has to actively pick them up in order to get them.
This would make the game more "interactive".

Add a cooldown for buying objects

By adding a cooldown, the player would have to choose carefully, where he plants his game objects.

Add stopwatch

Add a simple stopwatch, which indicates how long the player could defend himself.

Add Game-Settings

The spawn rate, wave damage increase etc. should be configurable in one single file.
This would make balancing the game easier.

Split enemy wave logic into separate class

An "EnemyWaveController" which controls the enemy spawn rate, handles the awards and the dealt damage, would be useful.

Rework svgs

The svgs which are currently in use should be reworked and maybe animated.

Add enemy waves

Add enemy waves in order to increase the difficulty of the game and challenge the player.

Adding armor

Adding armor for the player, towers or/and enemies (with upgrade/repair options) might be a good idea.

Different enemies

Currently we have a "Enemy" and "ShootingEnemy" class.
Both classes can be used as "base classes" for different types of enemies.
Only the attack damage, attack speed, svgs and or bullet svgs must be changed.

This could already be done and would make the game more diverse.

Adding a hit animation

If an enemy hits the player, a red border or "hit" indicator should be displayed.

Only shoot, if enemy is in sight

Towers should only shoot, if an enemy is in the same lane.

Update game object svgs

The game object SVGs, which are currently in use, should be replaced in order to make the game look a little bit better.

Set up a goal

If the player survives 20(?) waves, he should win the game.
