Day 9: Planting the Seeds of Your Empire of Ash
Today we gave you the power to carve your dominion into the scorched earth with a full Building Placement System. Pick your sinister structure, and watch as a ghostly silhouette follows your cursor—ready to turn barren ground into a factory of nightmares. It free-places for you chaotic maniacs, so you can drop fortresses exactly where they’ll choke the life out of your enemies.
Of course, we can’t have your towers clipping through walls like drunk ghosts, so we baked in Obstruction Testing with Visual Feedback. Try to spawn a turret on top of another, inside rocks, or mid-air, and the game slaps down a hard “Nope”—your cursor ghost turns red, and you’ll hear that satisfying “thwunk” of failed ambition. Only perfectly legal real estate gets the green light.
Finally, say hello to the Building Sidebar UI—a grim scroll of turret icons, barracks symbols, and resource extractors. Click to queue and drag to place. It’s slick, it’s savage, and it’s your new command center for apocalyptic real estate speculations.
Stay twisted, commanders.
