Champions TD is evolving!
These past few weeks I've been really thinking about what Champions TD is becoming and where it is headed. Game Design is such that it is an evolving living thing. Game change direction all the time. Mostly in secret where only developers see but here at Sam and Dan Games we try to be really open about our process so that you are involved in it.

Also I'm looking at how the game performs in different platforms. We want to release the game for mobile devices and so the performance of the game is important.

In an effort to really focus the game and give more meaning to individual units the game will have some big changes.

  • New Valor System (Unit Upgrade system) - This Valor system will work like the resources in most Tower Defense game. You start off with some amount of Valor each level and you use it to temporarily upgrade units for that level. As you defeat enemies you will earn more Valor that you can use to further level up your units. Very similar to how you would upgrade a "tower" in most tower defense games.
  • Only 5 units can be used on a level - Similar to PTD1 and 2 you will only be able to bring in a certain amount of units to a level. This is to increase the strategy involved in who you bring, make each unit much more important and to make performance much better.
  • Tent will only hold one unit/levels will have more tents - Each tent will only hold one unit and so you will usually have 5 tents each level.
  • You will only have 1 of each class of unit (but can keep the ones you have!) - You will no longer be able to get an infinite amount of Bandits, you will only unlock one unit as you play the levels. For example you can have multiple healers but only one timothy or only one Cave Mystic. In the future I will add different types of healers that you will be able to use. Including some hybrids. After some thought and your feedback I think it will be okay to still have some units be able to be recruited more than once. Thanks for the feedback!
  • Player Activated Moves - Some units will have attacks that will be player activated and aimed. An example is the Yeti's Avalanche move.
  • More Skin Selections when creating your character - Finally got around to adding more skin variations for your character.
Due to all these changes most levels will change. You will be able to keep your units and the items you have collected so far.

Trainer VS: Picking your avatar, win streaks!
For Trainer VS I will be adding the ability to pick from avatars that you have unlocked, I will also add a new win streak mechanic. Win a number of fights before losing 3 times. If you lose 3 times then the win amount resets and you start over. If reach the goal then you will win new TMs for your account.

Auction House and Champions Item Variety

Game Fixes
Thanks to some great fans (who am I kidding you are all great!) we've managed to find some pesky bugs that I want to fix plus some changes to some abilities for units.

Drag Flag Colors - Right now you always see a blue flag when you drag a tent flag. I'm making it so it will show the proper color and remove the massive confusion this causes.

Summoned Units Not Taking Level Lives - The Lacky that the Bandit Boss summons is very weak and so he dies pretty quickly. This change makes it so you won't lose a level life when a summoned minnion like the lacky dies.

Changing attacks to be more viable for player - When I design enemies I make sure their attacks are appropriately strong but slow enough to give you time to dodge the attack. Once you recruit an enemy their attack becomes part of your arsenal, and while very strong they are too slow for actual play and so I will make these slow attacks be faster but only when you play the unit, the enemies themselves will still have their version.

There are other changes that will happen but these are the ones that I'm focused on this week along with the Auction House and Item Variety.

    New Multiplayer Feature for PTD2, Trainer VS! Champion Items Variety and Auction House Opening!

    You get all of this for only $1.99! One time payment! Get it today!

    Trainer VS!
    A much requested feature will make an appearance in Pokemon Tower Defense 2. You will be able to battle other trainers in 1v1 battles! Here is how it works:

    Battle other Trainers
    • In the Story Mode in the game pick 3 pokemon in the order that you want them to come out with the attacks that you want them to have.
    • Pick from available command styles (This will determine what pattern of attacks your pokemon will use when battling other trainers. The default and only one available when I realease will be to do the first attack once then switch to the second attack. More will be added in the future. Fun fact: This is the behavior of a lot of the enemies you fight in the game.)
    • Pick Ability for that Pokemon.
    • After you do that go to your Pokepad and press Trainer VS press the battle button and you will be paired up with another trainer to battle!
    Once you get into a battle you won't get to switch out your pokemon or change attacks. You will have to rely on the order that you place them in and the attacks, abilities and command style you picked in order to win the battle.

    Eventually there will be different things like different ranks and different avatars you can win for this mode! So look forward to that!

    Champions Item Variety
    A much needed feature will be added to Champions TD. Item Variety! What does it mean you ask? Well it means that the same item can now have different stats. For example you can get a Sword of the Bear that has stamina and strength or you can get the same Sword but it will be called Sword of the Wolf and instead of stamina it will just have strength but more of it. This will add more variety and more reasons to possibly replay levels to get the loot just the way you want it. If the loot isn't right then you can put it up for Auction or search for the item in the Auction House that has the stats you want.

    Auction House Opening!
    Speaking of the Auction House, after a looooonggg lonnnggg looonnggg time the Auction House is almost ready to be opened! I look forward to it so I hope you guys do to!

    Lots to do this week so keep checking out my progress and cheer me on Twitter!

      Gym Challenge Heats up! VS Blaine enters the battle!
      Late last week I got some great ideas for how I would do the Blaine battle for the Gym Challenge. I've been watching a lot of World of Warcraft on Twitch (while I work), especially guilds trying to beat Mythic Blackrock Foundry (the latest raid dungeon in World of Warcraft). So I think this battle is very influenced by different MMO bosses that I've seen lately. I hope you guys will enjoy! I'll try to make it pretty challenging without making it feel unfair. That is the ultimate goal for game development. I've also added a new poll so that you can vote on what reward you will want for the gym.
      Blaine - Cinnabar Gym Leader

      Auction House Progress
      The Auction House is still in progress, it is slow and steady but things are coming together, I didn't think it would be fair for you guys that I spent another whole week just on it so I'm also doing the gym challenge for PTD2. I'm very excited for the auction house, it won't be super pretty at first but it will be functional.

        It's that time of the month again when things take longer to make that usual and so we need to have a laser focus to finish them. In using the fabulous Flox Game Service and it really is great! It is however a big departure from what I was doing in PTD and so to create this Auction House I have to come up with new ways of doing things. I do love solving these problems, they are like puzzles for me but they do require much time be spent on them to solve properly. I'm also trying to prevent certain exploits to work in the game so more time is needed.

        In the end it will be worth it as you will be able to have this great service that will help keep us making great games for all of you.

        Blog Poll! You decide which Mega Stone! (Poll Above Blog)
        For the next Gym Challenge there are many possible mega stones that can be given away. So I'm leaving it up to you to decide which one will be given out! Vote wisely!

        vs Sabrina
        As promised this week we will have a new Gym Challenge Fight for PTD2 and it will be versus Sabrina the Saffron City Gym Leader. She specializes in Psychic Pokemon so we can expect some sneaky stuff happening on her end since they have much power. The way I'm planning it right now you will have one pokemon only but you will be able to move around as there will be many spots. How will you fare against her Alakazam?

        Auction House Begins
        Also this week I want to start building the Auction House of Champions TD as I feel we are getting to the point were we have enough items for it, it will work a lot like the PokeCenter except instead of trading one thing for another you will trade item for in game gold/silver/copper. Players will also be able to bid or buy out items so think of it like an ebay for Champions. Along with these eventually you will be able to message other players and even trade with other players. Please look forward to it!

        Blog Poll! You decide!
        A new decision has appeared for you guys and gals to decide! It has to do with your units moves. Unlike PTD your units in Champions TD (so far) can use all attacks, active and passive, all the time. The game can be more like PTD where you have to choose which of the moves you want activated and which ability you have activated. So in Champions that would mean only have one "active" skill and one "passive" skill activated at one time. I would redesign the moves to make each individual move more powerful for it to make more sense since currently they are design to all be on at the same time. So let your voice be heard and tell me what you think.

        Let's get it done! Cave Boss Level
        Last week Unova took a lot out of me, I worked long hours to get the Unova Invasion done and so I wasn't able to complete the cave boss level for champions. This week has also been pretty hectic with helping a friend move so I won't have a lot of time to tackle a lot of things this week. For these reasons this week I will focus my energy on finish this boss level for all of you! I got a good chunk done last week but I still have a decent amount left. Next week we will get a ptd2 challenge level plus other goodies. Let's get it done! Are you with me?

          You decided what is going to happen!
          You guys voted and now your voice has been heard and it will change the story in Champions TD! You will fight the boss and if/when you defeat it, it will truly be dead.

          New Poll! You decide!
          A new decision has appeared for you guys and gals to decide! It has to do with your units moves. Unlike PTD your units in Champions TD (so far) can use all attacks, active and passive, all the time. The game can be more like PTD where you have to choose which of the moves you want activated and which ability you have activated. So in Champions that would mean only have one "active" skill and one "passive" skill activated at one time. I would redesign the moves to make each individual move more powerful for it to make more sense since currently they are design to all be on at the same time. So let your voice be heard and tell me what you think.

          Unova Invasion!
          The Unova Invasion is coming!!! This will probably have the most amount of new pokemon compared to the past ones so it will take most of my time to get this done! I think I can do it!

          Cave Boss Level
          Also coming this week is the Cave Boss level for Champions TD, the first boss battle of the game. Expect much defeat and much glory and even more loot! I will try to make it so you have think about where you position your units and also have some moving around. Yet keep it not so repetitive that it just becomes a chore to play. That is the type of balance that game designing requires.

          Weekly Progress
            PTD2 v1.82  - Unova Invasion - Released!
            • Add Spawns to the whole map (100%)

              You decide what happens!
              After the next level of Champions you will face a boss. I wanted to involve you guys and gals in shaping the story of the game. You will fight the boss and bring it down to 0 health and earn loot but it is up to you to vote whether you really defeated the boss for good or if it comes back and chases you out of its cave! This will definitely change the story after that event so choose wisely!

              Extra Polishing Week!
              Every once in a while, when developing games, you need to stop adding new content and polish what you have so far. This is one of those times.

              For PTD2 I've been wanting to add a Map to the game for a long time. Also if I want to add the Fly feature we needed some kind of map for selecting where you want to go. It can also tell players just starting or players that haven't finished the story where to go to continue it. I've heard of some players simply not knowing where to go. So this should help. Along with that I've been getting a lot of request for letting the player pick which invasion they are currently facing and so this week I will do just that. Also to go back to Johto pokemon if desired.

              For Champions TD, I hope to add the Login feature this week. Many have reported not being able to save their progress due to their browsers being set for not storing data. I'll be using Flox as my backend. It runs on the cloud so there shouldn't be many problems too many people trying to save, so it should be  WAYYYY smoother than PTD ever was. It cost money to get this service running but I know it is worth it for you guys and gals to have it for free. Along with that I've been meaning to have unique colors for item icons so you can tell right away which item is what or at the very least know that two items are not the same without having to check their stats. I have other things on my list also that I'll add if I get to finish these with time left.

              There were a few bugs in the last release for Champions that I'm fixing sooner than that other update. See below for more info.

              Weekly Progress

              Champions TD v0.05 - Login Feature and polish! - Released!
              • Cloud Saves by log in in (100%) - need to create a new account and your email must be valid. (Don't worry no spam will be sent to your email.)
              • Different Item Icons for items to be able to easily tell them apart (100%)
              • Game Loader (100%)- Easier way to make sure the latest version loads without having to refresh browser
              • Recruit Expanded (100%) - Be able to recruit any previous level's recruits in your current level. So if you play level 2 you get to recruit level 1 + 2. If you play level 3 you get to recruit level 3 + 2 + 1. That way you don't have to go back to a level just to recruit. Later on I will add recruiting to the map menu.
              • Longer levels (level 1 only for now more in coming weeks) (100%) - levels will have more waves, giving you more chance to get the gear you need without having to restart the level.
              • Better loot system (100%) - having an ever increasing chance to get loot in a level. Certain units now always drop loot, or have a higher chance to their specific drop loot. Certain units have an increased chance to make general loot drop.
              • All Tents in Level 2 now have 5 spots available (100%) - In hindsight you need everything you can get.
              Champions TD v0.04.1 - Bug Fixes - Released!
              • Dark Urn added to the normal loot table (100%)
              • Reduce the amount of boar ribs required for bear and brute (100%)

              • Bandit Boss's lacky will no longer be able to receive experience points (100%)
              PTD2 v1.81  - Map Feature and Pick your Invasion - Released!
              • Map Feature (0%) Moved to later update- A map that will tell you where to go next for players that haven't beaten the story mode. Later on it will also work with Fly to move around the map faster.
              • Pick your Invasion (100%) - Be able to change which invasion you face or return it back to Johto.
                So that's what we are working on this week, got any ideas or feedback for this week's update let me know!

                Fuchsia Gym Challenge Released!
                Last week I said I would make another gym challenge level and so this week I've started my brainstorm session for figuring out what the level will be like. GAME DESIGN TIME! For PTD in particular I often start by reading pokedex entries. I use to find them fascinating. I say "used to" because I don't find them as informative in the latest generations. So anyways.. I read the entries and try to formulate enemy attacks or level concepts based on that.

                So for this level I decided to use Grimmer, Muk, Koffing and Weezing as the enemy for this level. Since those are Koga's pokemon (or implied) in gen 1. I could have also added in some from gen 2 and so forth but I decided against it. (As a developer you make a lot of these sort of arbitrary decisions very often. It helps that I'm making these alone so only my vote counts.)

                So the notes I have so far are: Toxics combining, explosions, leave slime behind create grimer, they get close and new stench appears.

                The next step is to start creating new moves and ideas on how I can mess the player up, or how the player might do something creative to stop the enemy. I still have to do this part but I'll be updating this blog post with my progress.  The fight is now out! Enjoy!

                Champions TD Next Update Released!
                Next up for Champions will be increasing the level cap to 6 and so adding new abilities for all the units in the game (they get them once they get to level 6 4 so most will already have the abilities once you play again.)

                These are the current ideas for new abilities: (Note these are for level 4 so they won't be the best the units can get.)
                Red = Completed
                Mage - Counter Spell - Makes enemies unable to cast spells (enemies will cast spells in later levels!)
                Warrior - Tear - Chance to make enemies take damage over time.
                Rogue - Lock - Stuns an enemy for a short time. Cost a combo point.
                Hunter - Tag - Hunter's tag a target so everybody can do more damage to it.
                Paladin - Flash Heal - Healing move that can heal allies and itself in a pinch. High mana cost.
                Warlock - Rain of Fire - Call down meteors from the sky on a target, damaging all units in the same area. Leaves a pool of lava that will hit enemies walking in that lane.
                Priest - Shield - Give its allies a shield that absorbs damage only last for a while.
                Shaman - Totem - put a totem that slows enemies down that walk by it for a certain amount of time.
                Druid - Refresh - Give allies and itself a heal over time effect.
                Boss Bandit - Summon Lacky - Calls a lacky bandit to fight on your side.
                Tank Bandit - Spikes - If using a shield physical attacks against it will hurt the enemy.
                Bandit - Pickpocket - Will sometimes steal money or items from enemies they are attacking.
                Timothy - Annoying Hymn - Will sing a song that will heal all nearby units and hurt all nearby enemies.
                Forest Hunter - Ice Shot - Shoot a long range projectile at the target that will freeze it for a time.
                Brown Bear - Bite - Take a bite out of your target, it will also heal you. Requires 50 rage.
                Grey Boar - Rage Stun - If the boar is charging his attacks have a chance to stun the target.

                Hi guys/gals with 2015 right around the corner I wanted to talk about our goals for 2015. I really think 2015 is going to be an amazing year for us. I'm really excited about our journey together. So I will talk about what I have in mind for PTD2 and Champions TD and even other projects beyond that.

                What's Next for PTD2? (and PTD1)


                Pokemon Tower Defense 2 story is done but there is still some content I want to add. Along with the Hoen Invasion you can expect an invasion day for each generation (including the first generation) along with a day that the map will have the normal Gen 2 pokemon that are supposed to be there. The Gym Challenges will still be coming out also. Something I've been wanting to add also is a map and the ability to fly to different locations for quick travel. The Iphone/Ipad version of PTD2 is also something I want to get done. Lastly I want to make an offline version of both ptd1 and ptd2. So if for any reason our servers can't survive any longer the game will still be available for all to play. (PTD2 having all generation is also good if trading is not available.) 

                As far as making a PTD3, I've really wanted to make an original game for years now but unfortunately things have never worked out due to a lot of reasons. Now with Champions TD I'm finally making that step. Perhaps in the future there might be a chance to do another pokemon game but Champions TD will definitely come first.

                What's Next for Champions TD?


                Champions TD just come out! Play it by clicking here if you haven't played it yet and let me know what you think. In the coming year we will be adding many new levels, new loot, new bosses, new units to recruit, just new new new. I'm very excited about this game and I hope you will like it as much or even more than I do! Since this game is more unique we might have biweekly and some weekly updates to it. I also want to put it on steam, apple and android app stores. I just want as many people to enjoy it.

                My thoughts right now is that the game will be free. There will be somethings you can buy but you will never have to pay to win. I want to get the auction house started soon but with so few items there isn't much of a reason yet. The next level will bring in more items and weapons so after a few more items an auction house will make sense.

                I'll mainly be focusing on Champions but I haven't forgotten about Cosmoids. Originally I wanted to make Cosmoids TD right away but in Game Development things change very rapidly and you have to be able to adjust. My goal is to make a Cosmoids game in the next few years. I might not be a Tower Defense game but I promise you it will be great. Again Champions is my focus so I might not talk much about cosmoids. I do think it will be cool to see some cosmoids in Champions TD. So I might add some of them for fun into the game.

                The final stretch! Round 3...
                So my original estimates were off. It will take longer to finish up the story in PTD2. This is mainly due to really trying to put everything I can into these last few fights. I could have made them pretty typical without adding any new enemy attacks and just give everything protect + a lot of HP and speed but I really wanted to end the game with a bang. One of my regrets with PTD1 was that I had to cut out a lot of ideas because I tried to stick to the 1 week limit for creating a level. For these last few fights I want to take my time and get them right. With Round 2 I made it a bit too easy and so I had to reword it a few times (countless times just me testing it) and I also reworked some moves that seemed to be way too good at the time.

                ..and beyond!
                After PTD2 I plan to work on a small game about Dinosaurs Heroes! It's a really small game so once PTD2 is finished I hope to start talking more about it and we can start working on it together as a community. I really value what you guys think and I think together we can make it a pretty fun game. So I'm looking forward to that.

                      The plan to finish PTD2
                      We could be about 2 months (if no big delays happen) from the story of PTD2 to be finished. I have it all planned out in my head how this epic adventure will end. Not sure if many have noticed but PTD2 and PTD1 stories are very well connected. The conclusion to PTD2 will help to tie it all up nicely. Any predictions on how it might end and what will happen? Below you can see how all the updates will be spread out. This is just an approximation and these might change.

                      Weekly Progress

                      Thoughts on The World Tournament - With the World Tournament my intention is to make it really challenging and unique. The first thing is that you will only have a set number of items for each battle. So you will be limited to how many revives and heals you get from items. (You won't lose any items but will be given some for every fight automatically, once the fight is done you will get your regular items back). 

                      Also every Round will have a rule for which Pokemon you can bring. For Round 1 You can only use Pokemon that share a type. So your whole party needs to have one type in common.

                      Other rounds will have rules like you can only bring a number of pokemon. Or you can only use attack of a certain type. Look forward to some challenges.

So they can hit multiple targets but only twice each (100% and 25%)Each shoot of the attack will start at max damage then lower it's damage after each hit by 10% until it reaches 10% damage, it will get smaller with every hit.

                          • Getting to this round unlocks a new level cap to 110 (100%) - After you beat Round 3, Prof Elm learns that pokemon can now level up to 110! I've always wanted to up the level cap from 100 to something higher ever since PTD1. I think this is a great chance to do this. In PTD2 you could get to level 100 from the beginning so there was never an update that included a new level cap. The fact that this fight only lets you bring 1 pokemon means that it's optional to level up your other pokemon. At level 110 pokemon will be able to learn special moves usually reserved for the move tutor, like Frenzy Plant, Blast Burn, Hydro Cannon. Each type will learn a new move at level 110!
                            • Battle Rule (100%) - You can bring only one pokemon. It can be any type and have any type of attacks.

                              • Darkness (100%) - Similar to Sunlight, there will be a meter that keeps track of the darkness of the fight. This meter starts at 0 and if it reaches 100 the corruption becomes too strong and you lose the fight. Celebi will pull you out just before that happens and bring you back to try the fight again (as he has been doing in the earlier fights when you lose). Unlike sunshine, weather effects won't change the amount of darkness. Darkness in this battle represents more like an aura rather than light. The way darkness will increase is by other enemies, either when they are present on the level or when you destroy them.
                              • Shadow Voltorb's Explosion (100%) - In spite of potentially hurting it's allies Voltorb will cause heavy damage to the enemy of whoever makes it faint. Defeating it will increase Darkness by 30%.

If your unit leaves the map the gust will stand still and wait for your return. Every time this gust hits a unit Darkness is increased by 1%. This gust will do damage based on the value of Darkness. If Darkness is 10% this Gust will do 10% of the target's health in damage. (If Darkness is 0% the gust will do 1% damage). Defeating ????? will increase Darkness by 100%.  Defeating it before the waves are over will result in losing the level. 
                              • Shadow Misdreavus's Self Images (100%) - Every once in a while Misdreavus will create 2 other clones of itself with low health and high speed. Defeating the clones will reduce Darkness by 5%. Defeating the original will increase Darkness by 20%.

                            • Bug Fix 1 (100%) - Fixed a bug that would happened if you leveled up a Pancham without a full party.
