Game Outline
The game will take place on the planet Othari, a peaceful planet until the rift opens, letting in creatures fromanother dimension. the creatures are hive minded, and are attracted to technology. They seem to have aninstinctive need to destroy the foreign objects. Learning this Otharian’s have erected Large technologicalstructures, code named terminals; which draw in all of the invaders. Otharian planetary defence force are taskedwith protecting the terminals and exterminating the invading creatures.
This is where the game begins, the player or players will be able to choose which character they will play in eachstage, each stage is located at a different terminal. If a terminal is heavily damaged, a player can spend thereresources to fix it, but once its health bar hits zero it is game over. The player will have to survive all the waves andprotect the terminal in order to succeed. Each map will start off completely baron excluding walls/barriers placedto force the player to think outside the box, when placing down barriers. In-between each wave there will be anopportunity for the player to buy barriers , turrets , upgrade turrets and fix the terminal. The player will be givenresources to spend in the shop and on the terminal, The amount of resources is based on how well the player didon the last wave. After they have finish spending resources they will be given time to place turrets and barriers.Turrets come affixed to there own barrier but are more expensive than barriers alone, making it a balancing act ofturret to barrier ratio.
The gameplay style will be First person but with a toggle-able third person mode, for characters that use meleeweapons. Each character will have their own personalised abilities and weapons, which will add an extra level ofstrategy. every character can choose two personal weapons each level. On the last wave of each level there will bea boss creature with the ability to ignore walls or destroy them. The boss monster will spawn at some pointthrough the wave and it's spawn time will be randomized. upon completing a level the player will unlock weaponand class skills for the character they are playing, based on how well they did.
