Over the past 2 weeks we’ve made a multitude of changes to Tower Storm. Fine tuning the game-play until it’s perfect and making it as easy to understand as possible. The first major change is you’ll now notice Tower Storm has a tutorial. We realized many new players were confused about attacking the enemy and […]
Since the lobby overhaul is now complete I set about updating the game to match. I experimented with a few different layout styles including having the tower / minion buttons over the top of the battlefield and having the game go full screen even on HD monitors (which didn’t look so good unfortunately). Eventually I […]
Today Tower Storm gets a major new patch finally making it a real Tower Defense game 🙂 Upgrading has been added to Towers, so you don’t have to spam them everywhere to destroy the oncoming onslaught of giants any more.

Yes we’ve been quiet for a while, unfortunately here at TowerStorm HQ we’ve had to get lots of businessy stuff sorted with milestones and long term plans and such so we aren’t simply flailing around any more 😉 Luckily in all this madness we’ve still found time to work on the next phase of Tower Storm: Making […]
