This being a day late is becoming a habit :)

The next version of the Alpha of Canyon of Desolation is ready for you to download. It’s available on our download page. You’ll need to be a registered user here on this site to download it.

We’ve been experimenting with several apps to create installers for Windows systems. The current installer was build with a different app than previous versions. So you may want to manually uninstall CoD before installing the new version.

Defending Units Preview

Defending Units (aka towers)

I’ve mentioned that Canyon of Desolation won’t be your typical tower defense type game. One of the differences is that in CoD you don’t really build “towers” (at least not in the literal sense) .. instead you’ll be placing character units to defend the canyon from those pesky goody-goody invaders.

Granted, this is pretty much a cosmetic difference … we even refer to them as towers as their function is basically the same; to shoot and kill the march of the invaders .. but combine the character units with the ability to place and move them anywhere on the grid-less canyon walls, and you can experience a strategic level to game play you can’t find in other typical TD games.

Also each type of defending unit will be specialized, increasing the tactical and strategic elements of game play. The types and specialties are listed below.

Many thanks to all the people that have given feedback on the initial alpha version for Canyon of Desolation.

We know it’s still rough and there’s a lot of work left .. but we also know we can’t do it without your help.

We do listen to what you have to say and are planning on including some of your suggestions in the next update. But before I give a glimpse of what that’s going to be, I’d like to congratulate Akonmakon for having the current high score of 361!

Of those scores posted on the forum for build 1487, here’s how they stand …
Akonmakon … 361
Citrine … 353
Valgrif … 349
Llarlen … 347

Nice job guys!
Let’s see if someone can beat those :)
