Technical Details

• Modular components are employed throughout the toolkit to handle special functionalities & aid in the creation of new variations to existing entities with minimal coupling.

• The Wave Manager allows complete customization of waves through parameters including Enemy Type, Number Of Units, Spawn Point, Spawn Delay, etc.

• AI Spawn Points support precached & runtime generation of randomized spawning locations.

• Event-driven logic used predominantly over continuously ticking services for HUD updates.

• All information about the towers & abilities are displayed dynamically using a data-driven approach, thus eliminating the need for manual HUD modifications when adding/removing towers.
