Hello !  Roll Eyes

I would like to enter this competition, I hope it's open to anybody.

I started to make a "procedural" tower defense game.
At the beginning, the game asks you to drag & drop any file in it, and then generates the level and the enemies from the file's content.

This is what I got from an empty .txt file :


From a shortcut :


And this is the current game fed with itself :


Now, I would like the player to add new towers by dragging & dropping files in the game.
The towers rate, range & dmg are generated from the file's content. You always get the same tower with one specific file.

Drag'n'drop 'my computer' or better yet 'The internet'.   Grin

I like the idea, and it seems to work so far. Will those be the final graphics, or are those just test shots?

I very much like the current look!  simple and clean,. I hope it stays reletively minimalistic,. just my tast.  Not sure about the file draging part,. I am partial to simple random seeds, myself, but go for it!  kinda vib ribbon-esc.

I added a stuff so that you can also drop an URL.

I think I'll keep it simple.

The entire file is stored in a temporary array, so these would possibly be too big (unless they're one-second porn movies  Shocked).

Ok, I'll think about it, I might even do it.

Me neither (the feedback for the dragged stuffs is quite slow on my computer) but I'll try.

Another screenshot :


The actual game will feature a kind of "tetris" gameplay.

I like your style  :D

I am very interested as to how the current screenshots would translate to Tetris-style gameplay.

Hey, this sounds like a fun idea. Can we expect a demo before the compo deadline?
