BioShield Battalion

A small tower defense game where you fight pollution and trash using renewable and sustainable energy sources and practices.

There are 6 waves in the game, pass all 6 and you win. Each wave an increasing number of enemies will spawn, build up your economy and defenses to power through.

Towers:

• Windmill
  • Produces energy (money), also has a special attack that activates when you press the spacebar, and has a cooldown. This attack blows back enemies and damages the Smog enemies.
• Solar Panel
  • Damages enemies, generally a solid base for a defense.
• Recycling Center
  • Shreds enemies, does a decent amount of damage and is especially good at handling the Microplastic Swarm.
• Carbon Scrubber
  • Scrubs the air for pollutants, deals damage against all enemies, but destroys Smog enemies.

Enemies:

• Smog
  • A cloud of pollution that seeps through and degrades all towers, susceptible to Carbon Scrubbers.
• Biohazard Barrel
  • A barrel of waste from various sources, biosolids, sewage, and other harmful chemicals. This enemy is tough and all towers damage it equally.
• Microplastic Swarm
  • A swarm of plastic shards from the buildup and degradation of non-recycled pieces of plastic. This enemy is susceptible to the recycling centers.
