This is a game that I should actually complete (especially as the main game is up and running). Its not complete yet, as there are lots of things I need to add (and a few bugs that need to be fixed in U6).

The object is to stop the waves of alien blocks from getting past the chequered line, by planting up to 4 charges, and then detonating them underneighth the blocks.

Different blocks move at different speeds.

At the moment there are only 5 levels (the last two need modifying).



It can be downloaded from here http://www.codingarea.co.uk/html/waveblocker.html

Note : Shadowing is on for this example, so you need a graphics card that can handle that.

Interesting game TCA. Took me a while to figure out what I was doing.(Got squashed first two rounds!)

Only was able to play the first level, yet it ran well.
Ran smoothly on 1,8ghz 8500 radeon.

Keep us updated.

I got to about level 5 (the one with the green blocks) on my first try. interesting game idea, the controls and overall gameplay are very nice.

with a little media the game would be really cool!!

why are you using hardware shadows (which are obsiously buggy) when you have a flat ground? you could easily use ghosted plains instead...
