I'm working on it..fixed it!

java webstart

Last update for today :)

changes

• maps 2 and 3 have been updated with new graphics
• after a level is finished, you get statistics
• if player collides with creeps he freezes for a short time
• plus some minor bug fixes

java webstart

I had to change the lighting completly, looks more subtle now :)
Each map can have its own ambient light now, plus multiple light sources.
New Keys: F1 turns off frame limit, F2 turns it on again. java webstart

Lighting Demo is now up and (hopefully) running..
..have fun :)

java webstart

After some experimenting, I managed to implement basic lighting to SteamTowers. So there may be some levels where Creeps can only be seen when they are passing a light source...

It's disco time!

new features:
+ Towers can now be sold
+ Towers upgrade after killing a certain amount of creeps
(3 Levels, indicated through silver/gold tower bases)

known bugs:
- weird bug causing all animations to stop
- creep indicator breaks out of its bounds

java webstart

Translated everything to English.
From now on new versions will be posted here, listing new features and bugs.

After watching Platoon last night, I've got a new idea for a game:
This maybe my next project, after finishing SteamTowers (or more likely: this will be the cause why ST will never be finished :D )
