Retribution TD, A consistently highly rated TD map on US and EU servers ( we have been in the #3 spot on both servers several times) is looking to expand. Currently I am the only one actively working on the project. I do all programming, data editing, graphic design, game planning, etc. I do have several people helping with testing, mainly Hathoron from bnet (Sgat here on sc2mapster). I would like to expand now that we have a fairly stable, complete game.
I'm not really sure how to expand, but I can tell you for certain that my strengths are in the area of Graphic Design and 3d Design. Programming is only done by me as a necessity (although, the fact that I have produced a fully working game must mean I'm fairly ok at it :)
If anyone has any ideas, offers, wants to help or anything else let me know. I'm not looking for any super-beginner types to help, as we are at ver 6.7 and FINALLY got most of the bugs out of the game :)
Also, if anyone wants to help with game-design / planning as well, I would be willing to hear those ideas. I would like to maintain creative control however!
Unfortunately you can only take a td so far with out it no longer being a td or changing it entirely.
you could try
new levels
new enemies
custom models since you said your into the 3d art stuff
new towers
??? Cinematics?
sorry my ideas kinda suck =(
I have my own TD project in the works that Im trying to stay away from the standard TD model. But at the same time it seems to cause a lot of confusion when people try it.

What would be really cool, if I could get a REAL coder to look at my code and give me pointers. I'm sure their are performance issues related to stuff I have done
Changed title. I have soemone helping me "Ciopo" from sc2mapster on the triggers. I now need to find a Data Editor specialist. This will be to worrk on this project and another project coming up.
You deffinately need to change the greed round, if possible make a skip vote or just remove/change it. I like the idea but it cause way too much lag and alot of people will leave if it goes on too long. I like your TD alot lol, in my opinion it is the best that has been made so far. My suggestion to make it more interesting to the player is to just make more towers and make easy mode a bit easier, thats about it for the difficulties. I like the way you made the different races alot however the hybrid class is really gimped since you cant utilize the maximum lvl units which turns most players off at the prospect, mabe you could make a special hybrid ultimate weapon like the other races have? If you want to hear some of my ideas as far as possible future units goes let me know..... i can be pretty creative, i know a bit about editing too. Anyway if you want to talk, my Sn on SC2 is Michael my number is 808. or you could talk to me over facebook if you would like, my name is Michael Ciotta i should be one of the retributionTD's facebook friends.

What you looking for is feedback :P . Ideas.
Re-playability is one of the flaws that this TD has I noticed. Played it a lot before.
???
I love it. Play it at least 2 times a night.
Well actually i beat the game few times now. But I am probbly looking wrong on this game.
Coz its actually about defeating enemy team. Not finishing the game I think.
I'm looking for help both with ideas and with coding / w/e

Good ideas Soul.

Are you experiencing preformance issues?
I only played a couple levels of your TD.
I didnt see anything that I would consider to be of issue while i played it.
depending on what ppl have their sounds set at.
i also have a ton of "every 1second" triggers and stuff I'm sure could be cleaned up
@VeridianEntropy: Go
Well Id be glad to go over it with you. Stop by SC2testers.net for more help.
Ill be gone tonight. But maybe one of these nights we can hop on vent and discuss your triggers.
You really shouldnt need any "every 1 second" triggers in a td.

I have Ciopo working on the greed rounds and general lag right now. Lag is nearly gone on the test version.

I would like to help. I am mostly interested in the trigger/data editor works.
