Hi all, little update for everything I've been doing in Just Keep Defending And Mining.
The upgrade screen was pretty good, but needed a bit more information so as to allow players to make better informed decisions. So, I've added "ghost" nodes. These nodes allow you to see whats coming, so you can make a more informed decision about what to buy next when you are buying upgrades. I think this adds a new element to the upgrade loop in the game. Next up I will be reworking the entire layout, and this helps alot. Being able to preview your options before you unlock them gives you a better decision making pathway as a player.
The map while functional was quite obstructed and bulky. It was difficult to see what things are and it was difficult to see which text belongs to which island. I've reworked the layout and reworked all of the colors and texts to better show which island is relevant to which prices and details. The whole map is a bit easier to navigate now. So, I got some feedback that the reward screen is fun for the first few times, and then it just kinda gets annoying. So, what I've added is an ability to fast forward time. So now, you hold down left mouse and the whole animation plays much faster than normal. This makes the whole thing a lot more tolerable after playing alot of rounds and having to wait. Now, you fast forward if you want to.
All in all development is going well on the game. Next up I will be reworking the layout of the upgrade tree, I will also be adding custom towers to each map and I will be finalizing all the maps. I also aim to add the remaining abilities and upgrades in the next few weeks.
