Droids vs Turrets

Droids vs Turrets is a simple tower defense game, built for Android and PC. The game has 4 towers each with unique abilities. The game has two damage types ballistic and energy. The different weapons do damage in these categories. For example the Gat Turret does only ballistic damage. The droids can also be slowed down by the slow tower.

What I worked on:

Turret Mode/Upgrade menu

This menu is where you access all the options for a placed turret. Since we wanted the menu to pop up around the target turret and not be a simple slide-in menu, as well as have a varying amount of options, I needed to create a menu that could dynamically generate based on how close to the edge of the screen it is and how many buttons needed to be displayed.

Targeting System

Our turrets have the ability to change targeting priority between first, last, and closest. As the droids have varying speeds the enemies needed to track how far along they are in the path. The turrets can then more easily check for which droids within their range they need to target.
