Articles - NetTD

NetTD is a 2D space-based shooter with a handful of planned game modes. The game began as a multiplayer tower defense, hence the nickname NetTD, but has evolved far past that in our expectations. Players will take control of ships, which will have unique abilities, and will outfit them with turrets and modules as they would like. Tower defense games will take place on rectangular maps in which creeps and their paths are pre-determined. Players can construct towers on pre-determined platforms in the map. All of the pre-determined aspects are packaged in the map files and a map editor will be available for use at launch. The tower defense aspect offers a unique way to play the TD genre by forcing unconventional strategies and solutions.
