Chapter 61: Ultra-high playability.

　　Movement speed is also a very interesting attribute of monsters in tower defense games, and many articles can be made around this attribute.

　　Different types of monsters in "Kingdom Rush" move at different speeds.

　　The general monster is the normal movement speed, such as goblins, orcs.

　　Some monsters move fast, on the other hand, they have low health and low damage, such as Warg. To deal with this type of monster, it is best to choose soldiers to block them, and the defense tower will be easy to kill.

　　Some monsters move slowly, but with rough skin and thick flesh, or with high damage, it is difficult for soldiers to block them. At this time, high-output and high-burst defense towers are required.

　　Bounty is the gold coins that can be obtained after killing monsters, and it is also a necessary resource for players to upgrade their defense towers.

　　In Kingdom Defense, in addition to killing monsters, there is another way to coexist with risks and benefits. Not only can you get gold coins, but you can also shorten the cooldown of your skills, which is to start the next wave of monster attacks in advance.

　　This is also a design based on enhancing the immediacy of the game.

　　For example, if your defense tower has insufficient firepower, then let the next wave of monsters attack in advance, and the extra gold coins obtained will be used to upgrade the defense tower and increase the output, which may just be able to solve the predicament. But it is also possible that two waves of monsters attack together, and the player misses more monsters and falls into a worse situation than before.

　　The pros and cons of which need to be weighed by players themselves, but this design undoubtedly makes the game more strategic.

　　The damage to the base also varies according to different monsters. The general mode base of "Kingdom Rush" has 20 HP, and basic monsters such as Goblins will deduct 1 HP when entering the base. More powerful monsters, such as high-output slaughterers, will deduct 3 points of blood.

　　There are bosses in some levels, the damage of the boss to the base is 20, and the blood of the base can be deducted at one time - that is to say, other levels are missing a few monsters, as long as you don't die, you can pass the level. If you want to pass the boss level, The leader must die.

　　The skills, or abilities, of monsters are the key to making the game much more playable.

　　For example, a gargoyle, its ability is to fly. Soldiers can't intercept units in the air, and turrets can't hit the sky.

　　If the player knows that a gargoyle appears, when arranging the defense system, it must take into account its flight characteristics and make targeted arrangements.

　　For example, a big spider, its ability is to lay eggs. It will lay eggs every time it walks a certain distance. If you don't kill these eggs, a small spider will hatch after a while.

　　Although the small spider has low blood, it moves very fast. If the defense system is not thorough, it may escape the fire network of the defense tower and cause damage to the base.

　　For example, the troll chief, whose ability is bloodthirsty, can apply a buff to the surrounding monsters, make these monsters move faster, increase their damage and armor, and players must consider killing them first.

　　In addition to different skills and a variety of monsters, "Kingdom Defense" also has four types of defense towers: arrow towers, magic towers, turrets, and soldier towers.

　　Each defense tower has a three-level basic form. From the fourth level, you can choose an advanced route, and have their own unique skills in addition to the basic attack.

　　The arrow tower is characterized by an amazing attack speed and a long attack distance. Its cost is also the cheapest, but it lacks explosive output, and the output of high-armored enemies and monster groups is weak.

　　The magic tower is characterized by a high burst, which can cause a heavy blow to enemies with high armor. The main disadvantage is that the attack speed is slow, and it is not good at dealing with fast-running monsters such as wolves.

　　The turret can cause area damage, has a high output, and is good at dealing with enemies in groups, but its attack speed is very slow, it cannot attack enemies in the sky, and it is expensive to upgrade.

　　After the barracks are built, three soldiers will appear, which can be mobilized within the barracks to block the enemies on the route. per level,

Soldier's armor, health, and attack power will be increased.

　　Different defense towers have their own characteristics, and the advantages and disadvantages are obvious. Players need to make reasonable collocations to deal with various monsters.

　　Talent is also an important part of Kingdom Rush.

　　The levels in the game are divided into three modes, campaign, hero and iron blood. In the campaign mode, you will get up to three stars based on the blood volume at the time of clearance.

　　Hero and Jagged mode are more difficult to challenge, the base HP is only 1 point, and 1 star will be awarded after clearing the level.

　　These stars can be used to upgrade talents. There are six talents, corresponding to four types of defense towers, and two skills, meteorite and reinforcement.

　　For example, the talent of the Arrow Tower:

　　Salvage: Bow Towers are sold for 90% of their value. [cost 1 star]

　　Eagle Eye: Increases the attack range of the marksman. [cost 1 star]

　　Penetrating Strike: Sharp arrows ignore a portion of the enemy's physical armor. [costs 2 stars]

　　Ranged Shot: Increases the archer's range. [costs 2 stars]

　　Deadly Arrow: Archers have a chance to deal double damage. [costs 3 stars]

　　Reinforcement talents:

　　Well-fed: Farmers who are well-fed have extra health and do slightly more damage. [Consume 2 stars]

　　Enlisted Soldiers: Enlisted Soldiers have higher health and better equipment. [Consume 3 stars]

　　Warriors: Warriors have higher vitality and better weapons. [Consume 3 stars]

　　Legionnaire: Legionnaires have the highest vitality and wear the best equipment. [Consume 3 stars]

　　Spear Throwing: Gives Legionnaires the means of a spear throwing attack, capable of striking both ground and flying enemies. [Consume 4 stars]

　　These talents must start from the most basic and move up layer by layer. The more stars you put in, the more powerful the talents you get.

　　When the talents of the first line are full, the corresponding defense towers or skills will be greatly improved.

　　So when players are stuck, they can try to concentrate the stars on one or two talents, and focus on using the boosted defense towers in the level.

　　"Kingdom Defense" has a lot of content. Wang Jian talked for an hour before he explained the game's framework. Everyone also had a basic understanding of the game.

　　The next step is to divide the tasks.

　　Luo Shuai first said: "Boss, the workload of the game is a bit heavy this time, and I feel that I can't handle it alone!"

　　Although "Kingdom Rush" is a small game, the content is much more difficult to produce than the pure story RPG "To the Moon". It is reasonable for Luo Shuai to worry about this.

　　Wang Jian smiled: "It doesn't matter, I have already placed an order to buy a game development smart host. It will be available in a few days. When you are familiar with it, the development speed will definitely be much faster than now."

　　Luo Shuai looked as if an old glutton had seen a large table of delicious food, and his eyes were full of excitement: "Really! The boss is awesome!"
