We are glad to announce that we are almost ready to release our 3D Tower Defence Starter Kit for Unity.

This starter kit, just like our successful 3D Match-3 Starter Kit, is realized at a quite high standard and obviously working and tested on mobile platform as well.

Our Roadmap is split in three milestones:

Release 1.0 (now on stage 2 in QA):

  • Editor extension to visually define the enemies’ wave paths (based on iTween): you can define as many waves paths you want; each path has its own set of waves and enemies
  • Usual stuff: base tower costs, upgrade costs, damage levels, speed, fast forward and so on
    Unlimited configurable Towers’ action animations, allowing to set also the muzzle transforms, unlimited firing audio and visual effects on a per-upgrade level basis (each level can have as many animations and effects you want)
  • Wave manager allowing unlimited waves and unlimited enemy objects, integrated with animated characters and wheeled vehicles. Spawn/die audio and visual effects configurable on a per-enemy type basis
  • Unlimited and fully customizable tower upgrades
  • Camera modes: free fly and tower look (like the player sits on top of the selected tower following the action)
  • The player at any time can decide to get into a tower and play in first person, orienting the tower and choosing to fire manually or set on auto-fire mode.

Release 2.0 (Q4 2011):

  • Air support: the player can buy air support at every defined time interval, event or simply unrestrictedly
  • Network: multiplayer with Coop and Vs modes

Release 3.0 (Q2 2012):

  • Network: MMOG Server side support to allow implementation of statically stored virtual worlds that continue playing 24/7 accepting players at any time if an available game slot is free. Game slots are configurable to allow small or huge server configurations.

The introductory price for the version 1.0 will be $110. The price will go to $165 upon release of version 2.0 and finally $260 upon release of v. 3.0. Releases 2 and 3 will be pushed on Unity Asset Store as updates, so early adopters will have all those great features for free!
