What is "The Defense of Ishera"? |
The Defense of Ishera is a hero defense map. You and up to three friends can hold out for 25 waves against various creep and boss units. The Heroes can purchase items and mercenaries to help them defend, and can level up 4 unique skills. |
Map Info
After the map starts, you have 1 minute to select a hero and buy items. Then round 1 begins. Monsters spawn around the outside and move inwards towards the Altar of Sorrow. You must kill the monsters before they break the Altar. You will gain money from kills which you can use to purchase stronger items or mercenary units.
There are 3 waves to each round, spawning more and harder units. After the first wave begins there is a 24 second wait until wave 2, and another 24 second wait until wave 3. The next wave will start regardless of if you killed all the enemies in the wave before it. A speedy dispatch of enemies is highly recommended.
Items, Heroes, and Creeps (Bosses included) need to be finished before the map is playable. The rounds and waves are stable, and the AI is basic but it works. I hope to have a working version within 2 weeks.
Here is a basic gameplay video, showing some of the aesthetics and basic gameplay. In case anyone was wondering the song is Hang On Sloopy by Count Basie.
