The Art of Defense

The Art of Defense is a single player tower defense game, inspired by the battle style of games such as Clash of Clans. It features the player holding off against waves of enemies in his base, using various defenses and buildings such as turrets and mortars.

This game is in early development. Not much features have been added, this is just for testing out the idea. Not much optimized as well, so make sure you have a beefy computer before running this on max graphics! It runs smoothly on lower graphics and resolution for lower end computers though.

There might be bugs and glitches, please do report them to me. 

Controls and How To Play : 

Backspace to Unlock mouse cursor

L to lock mouse cursor

WASD to move around

Mouse to Look around

Shift to speed up movement

ESC to pause 

F to switch cameras - RTS Camera, Free Camera and First Person Player

IMPORTANT : 

You must defend your tower (the huge building in-game) from enemies. For this, you have several tiles in front of your tower. These tiles can be used to place defenses.  Currently, there are two defenses - The Turret and The Mortar. To place defenses, Unlock your Mouse Cursor with Backspace and then click the Plus sign to the right of your screen. This opens up a shop menu, where you can buy and spawn buildings. Currently the starting money amount is 3000. Buy one of the defenses with the button, then spawn the defenses with the button below it. Then hover your mouse over one of the tiles, you will see that a building appears over the tile you hover your mouse on. Click on whichever tile you want to place the defense, it automatically gets placed. You can upgrade your defenses by clicking on them and then clicking the button Upgrade. Now, once you have a good view of the extending battlefield and are ready with your defenses, click New Wave (Unlock Cursor with Backspace if it isn't visible). A bunch of enemies will spawn which your defenses will automatically fend off. You can either use the RTS style camera to view the fight, or use the free camera to roam around and view the fight from a unique perspective, or use the First Person Controller to view the fight from your tower. Switch between these views/modes with the F key. There is a simple light inside the tower that you can flick on and off with your switch (little gimmick).
