First of 3 projects I made for one of my modules for University.

The idea was to look into older generation games and create an idea for a game that combines that older generation with modern systems/mechanics.

I looked into 'RAMPART' and I really enjoyed the strategic portion of the game where you had to place your turrets and walls to defend your base. I wanted to implement something similar in this game with a modern twist to it, so I decided to incorporate the 'merge' mechanic, which is usually seen in mobile games.

You are encouraged to experiment with the different variety of turret types and their placements to create some cool level builds!


Incorporating all of the different mechanics the game becomes this blend of tower defence and management where you move turrets around, maintain their ammo count and merge turrets depending on the situation, it becomes very hectic and chaotic!

Merge Mania is a brilliant game that focuses on turret management and upgrading your arsenal and getting high grade turrets. After managing to save enough money, you can buy bombers which deal great with a larger amount of enemies and dealing damage to all of them at once. I had lots of fun and potentially could play it for longer if I wanted to, but I had to go put me kids to sleep.

(But just so you know, you can pause the game)

Overall, a splendid attempt at a tower defence game. Here's my score:

10/10

Dude, you forgot to delete the last part! No payment for you.
