Just shouting out: I'm actively working on NUD. I added a new NUD type and polished some things with the graphics/sound. I've always gotten somewhere with the custom NUD settings loading/saving system. It can now flawlessly load stuff, so all that remains is the editor to allow you to create stuff.
Some highlights of what is coming:
-New NUD type: OrbNUD, these nuds fire an energy ball that explodes on contact, damaging all nearby invaders. The size of the explosion starts off small, but grows as the orb passes over NUDs. Therefore you need to place OrbNUDs at the back of your formation.
-Planned new upgrades for each nud type. Each nud will have 2 tier 4 upgrades to choose from. For example, glow nuds will upgrade to either lightning or zap nuds at tier 4, each upgrade will cost about 4-5 thousand resources. Lightning nuds are sniper nuds that do very high damage but have slow reload. Zap nuds are the opposite, they do very low damage but have very fast fire rate. I'm planning for all NUDs to have these tier 4 upgrade branches. Tier 4 upgrades will be blue.
-NUD game editor. Editor will allow you to change NUD settings as you please. Giving players the ability to craft a wide range of possible tower defence games within the framework of NUD. The editor will also allow you to build maps of any shape, even allowing you to pre-place NUDs if you want to.
Finally, I have a slight problem that you guys might be able to help with. I'm planning to register a domain name for NUD, however, NUD.com is taken by some porn site (something like one anyways, I'm not sure). So I'll have to rename the game so I can get a website for it. I'm looking for something short (3 or 4 letters) and pronounceable (so it needs a vowel in it). Anyone got any suggestions?
