![]() ![]() Since they follow the first attacker, they'll often abandon the area you were hoping they'd attack, following an unfinished attacker around a corner and ignoring the line of approaching creeps. Where it gets annoying, however, is with the laser towers, which are designed to fire down straight paths, hitting multiple attackers at once. Towers always shoot at the lead attacker, but that means a weaker enemy that's near death can sneak by though the entire stage if you're not careful a classic TD complication. The AI is pretty decent, but it's also got a couple aspects you'll need to work around, even if they were by design. It's bright, it's beautiful, and no, it isn't Geometry Wars. Like nearly every TD game out there, you've got different tower types, different enemy types, and shot distance for every weapon in your arsenal it's a lot to take in for a starting TD player, and with no numbers it really is a hardcore player's download. ![]() For starters, the game doesn't "show you the numbers," so to speak, so you'll just need to learn exactly how much each upgrade will help for your towers, you'll need to feel out how powerful each wave of enemies is, and work from there. Overall the game is pretty fair and comprehensive, though there are some things that I'm currently not a fan of, and would love to see improved in an update. You will fail, and – if you've got the masochistic "hardcore" gene most TD players have - you'll love it. Apparently David knows just how tough the game is though, as every level is unlocked from the start of the game, complete with little tutorials on new towers and strategies as you go. ![]() Once you get your butt kicked on Easy level 1 though, you'll quickly realize this is about as far from a twitch shooter as you can get, as it'll take a tactical mind to push through the first few levels, let alone all 30 included in the download. The vector art looks identical (maybe a bit too identical?) to the now-classic arcade shooter Geometry Wars down to the smallest detail, having glowing vector art slide and rotate around the screen, explode in shards of neon shrapnel, and distort the grid-tiled background. At first look, GeoDefense might not strike you as a tower defense game at all. ![]()
