[Android] Tower Bruiser (kodo tag like)

Hi my name is martin, i develop program in C++, java,...and one of my favorite hobbies is to develop game.
I loved to play Warcraft 3, and some other mod created with it, especially the Kodo Tag, so i decided to port
this experience to the Android Platform. I developped Tower Bruiser only with C++ and OPENGL ES, the models
present in this game are modified.





tell me what you think about this game !

Thank you

My concern would be over copyright and intellectual property ownership.

Blizzard owns many of the models and icons present in your game by the looks of things. Even the modified models still are technically Blizzards as they are clearly based on their work.

This should be of little concern if your game will be free as Blizzard generally is tolerant of things like that. However if you try to commercialize your game through sales or micro-transactions they might issue you with a cease and desist order or prosecute you for intellectual property theft.

Hi Dr super good, thank you for the advices

I didn't know that, therefor i will change the model as soon i could, even if the game will stay 100% free.
Apart from that, looks pretty good. I suggest you to use blending for the particles (e.g. GL_ONE, GL_ONE for additive).
Thank you Ghostwolf i will implement it right now.

New Update,

My exams are over, so I took again the development of this game
I changed the majority of graphics in order to have a nicer render.

Some pictures:

New characters:

I like the looks of it! Cliffs look better than Blizzard's, and the new characters are pretty good. I'd love to play this on my phone.

Hi thanks for replies, unfortunately, i've received an DMCA from blizzard. So my game is temporaly banned from Google play. I'm replacing all references from warcraft to make the game legal, then this week end i will publish a new version.

Oof, I knew that was going to happen.
But no worries, it should look cooler once it has better models and terrain!

Hi, i've just uploaded the new game : Tower Bruiser.

I hope this game won't be banned.
Tell my what you think about trailer or game !

Thanks
 
Tower Bruiser -> a nice name... I'd like to see towers bruised...

well it doesn't have any ripped resources and doesn't infringe any copyright, I don't think you'll have a problem

gonna look for that at the store

Oh looks like I'm the very first to download... will take some time though, the rate at the office seems slow today...

PS: edit the thread title would you?

Thank your for your reply

Bruising Towers sounds quite about right.
Would that fit?
Anyways, nice job. I like that look.
Those models could fit an RTS game that's near Warcraft 3.
Pretty cool!
Edit: Oh shiz, bro. You still have the gold coin icon Warcraft has.
That's not good. You should probably change that too or Blizzard might spot it with their quick eyes.

so far, it's quite nice to play... though a simple tutorial could help... plus maybe add descriptions to what the towers can do...

I concur with this suggestion. Most of the tower defense games I see have descriptions and those tutorials when you first play it.
It would look snazzy.
Also, I suggest making like a map selector thing..? Would be pretty cool to choose your own map.
