Hello, this is a quick post to let everybody know that I am busy working on my final year project for my Computer Science with Games Development degree course.

I have been struggling to come up with a name for it, due to the fact that one of my choices, Space Base Defence, is bland and is already taken! So I decided to make up a word, hoping that it doesn’t already exist: Solmidar Base Defence. The idea is that it is set on the planet of Solmidar. But now there’s an issue that no one will be able to spell it into Google!

I need a catchy, simple to remember name, that clearly explains what the game is about and is quick to type into a search engine.

Until I come up with a proper name, for now it is Tower Defence Meets SimCity And Dungeon Keeper (TDMSCADK). My new game, TDMSCADK, or “tee-dee-m-scad-ka”, has you starting with a small rocket inside a previously dug out landing bay.

You will have to build various rooms, and hire various units, to help develop a base that can fight off enemies. You will have to worry about building houses and looking after the needs of your workers, including managing utilities like power and cleanliness (SimCity), whilst digging into the terrain below with your miners to gather gold and gems to fund your pursuit (Dungeon Keeper).

At night, you must gather all of your soldiers onto the surface, and fight wave after wave of enemies (Tower Defence… without the towers)!

The point of this post isn’t to reveal much about the game, it is simply to say that all future updates about the game will be on this blog site. So make sure to come back!

I promise to have more updates in the future, and do check out the other categories on the side, where I will upload various posts.
