Improvement help (Tower for tower defense game)

Help and Feedback Building Support

This is my first post on the devforum so I will keep this simple and do my best explaining.

I need a professional(or not) opinion on ways my team could improve this tower for a tower defense game we are currently working on.

I also need help thinking of ways to make all levels of this archer tower look significantly different while still being identifiable as the same tower, past attempts have failed miserably as you can see below:

This would be very helpful, any and all feedback is greatly appreciated. Also, if there is anything wrong with this post or it doesn’t fit this category please let me know, this is my first post on the devforum as I mentioned previously.

I actually really like both of those second image models as they are, but here are some things I can think of:

1st Tower: The major difference is that this one is standing on a tripod. I believe if this one also had four straight posts then all of the towers would fit the same theme.

2nd Tower: I love this model, but the only improvement that could be made is the detail on the top part of the standing platform. The “walls” are very basic, and with some minor improvements this model could be professional industry grade.

3rd Tower: I really enjoy the shape of the stones! To help make this tower match more closely to the others, I would suggest adding the top “walls” for the standing platform. Other than that, it’s beautiful as is!

Looks good, but if you did not make this in Blender or anything like Blender, you should for less lag.

Thanks! None of my builders are familiar with blender well enough to do that, but I could definitely hire someone to help and maybe even teach them.

You don’t have to use blender, but I would suggest making sure they are using minimal parts to achieve the look. Keep in mind you can convert a solid model object into a mesh to reduce performance issues with the rendering of the solid models.

As info: solid models are rendered by reproducing the edits made to a brick every time the place is loaded.

This looks so much like Clash Of Clans, thanks for the memories.
increase in each level, you could make, taller, bigger, different materials. Amount of archers. You could use example from the game clash of clans. Look at a picture here.
