New tower, slow progress


Hi hi,

I have added a new tower, the Grove, which is all about buffs, debuffs, and minions, and slightly too much visual clutter.

Also added some  QoL stuff about uploading and downloading savefiles, and user created maps, which should now be properly playable.

Lastly an apology for the slow progress. Lately I haven't had as much free time to work on this as I would have liked :(

This will likely continue until around July, so while the project has not been abandoned, it is sadly on the back burner for now.

Loving the ability to play my own maps now! I notice the new Grove tower doesn't have a circle indicating radius like the other towers do, I find this occasionally makes me feel like my Grove towers aren't selected when I click on them, although they are actually selected. I'm guessing just a bug, but I figured I'd be a good playtester and let you know.

Hope the lack of free time is fun-busy and not stress-busy! I'm looking forward to more updates, but the game is worth the wait. Take care!

Thank you so much for the feedback and the kind words :)

The Grove (and the Barricade) not having a radius is actually not a bug but a less than ideal decision on my side. They both have 0 radius before upgrades, because they don't really do anything with it, and the show radius function display a weird dot, aka a size 0 circle, so I removed showing radius all together when it's too small. I did notice how annoying it is to see what is selected, but forgot to actually do anything about it... Should be a quick fix show their range from the start, I'll have it added at the next update.

Lack of free time is a little of column A, little column B. I'm learning Japanese as hobby, and am taking the JLPT at the start of July, but am kinda way behind, so most of my productive free time is going to studying. It's a hobby, so fun enough, but being behind is stressful xD

Either way, once the exam is done I'll have a lot more time to focus on the game.
