The Blue Flame: A tower defense
« on: October 27, 2011, 09:20:38 pm »
Ive decided to start my first big axe project!  :w00t:
 
The project will be called The Blue Flame.

It's going to be a tower defense style game. Ive thought up some ideas, and here is a quick thought of what it could possibly be about:

Earth 2107, A group of scientists in the MRF (Mantle Research Facility) dig for new discoveries after strange traces of energy have been discovered in the upper mantle. Mining robots have been sent to the lithosphere to see what is happening. They discover something new, a rare element that when burns, produces an odd colored flame. The flame was the opposite of normal fire, sort of an anti-flame. This new discovery mixed with normal fire resulted in an inferno of blue flames. The flame and anti-flame both fuel each other with their opposite properties and would last for almost forever. But soon, the information leaked out to a terrorist group. They planned to attack the MRF and steal their supply of the element and use it for their own evil needs. The MRF became instantly fortified by the military after word got out to the government. Luckily, the MRF was the only scientist group with the technology to obtain it, but they still have to defend themselves.

That possibly could be a good story for the game.

Im still learning axe, but I think I can pull it off.

Good luck. Looping through enemy arrays + bullet arrays + tower arrays should be lots of fun...lol

I've been thinking, a TD is compliated and I think I should start smaller first, and then come back to this once I have a little more experience with axe.

avalanche is the games that basically you avoid the falling icicle.
