Java Game Programming 29 - Tower Foundation

Tower defense without towers? Not anymore! This episode of java game programming we add the base for towers that will be attacking our enemies! Make sure to get the 2D textures below.

I must confess, the second I saw the tower show up on the screen I giggled like a child getting getting candy hahaha!

can't directly reply to you until you enable comment replies in you Google+ settings somewhere.  The reason the enemies would be skipping the path in this scenario isn't necessarily due to how fast they're going but how many digits away their speed is from a multiple of 64.  For instance a speed of 192 would work (64 x 3) but a speed of 150 won't.

We will fix this is an upcoming episode, good find!

Fantastic series of tutorials, they've been extremely helpful. Do you happen to have the source posted anywhere for viewing?

[codecrackedtech]

Can you do a tutorial on making textures?

[BukkitProgramZ]

Wouldnt you be better off making an abstract class so you can make multiple cannons with ease?

After the last episode's delta time cap, my game waits between 3-6 seconds after being opened to start spawning enemies. Any way to fix this?
