Just shouting out: I'm actively working on NUD. I added a new NUD type and polished some things with the graphics/sound. I've always gotten somewhere with the custom NUD settings loading/saving system. It can now flawlessly load stuff, so all that remains is the editor to allow you to create stuff.
Some highlights of what is coming:
-New NUD type: OrbNUD, these nuds fire an energy ball that explodes on contact, damaging all nearby invaders. The size of the explosion starts off small, but grows as the orb passes over NUDs. Therefore you need to place OrbNUDs at the back of your formation.
-Planned new upgrades for each nud type. Each nud will have 2 tier 4 upgrades to choose from. For example, glow nuds will upgrade to either lightning or zap nuds at tier 4, each upgrade will cost about 4-5 thousand resources. Lightning nuds are sniper nuds that do very high damage but have slow reload. Zap nuds are the opposite, they do very low damage but have very fast fire rate. I'm planning for all NUDs to have these tier 4 upgrade branches. Tier 4 upgrades will be blue.
-NUD game editor. Editor will allow you to change NUD settings as you please. Giving players the ability to craft a wide range of possible tower defence games within the framework of NUD. The editor will also allow you to build maps of any shape, even allowing you to pre-place NUDs if you want to.
Finally, I have a slight problem that you guys might be able to help with. I'm planning to register a domain name for NUD, however, NUD.com is taken by some porn site (something like one anyways, I'm not sure). So I'll have to rename the game so I can get a website for it. I'm looking for something short (3 or 4 letters) and pronounceable (so it needs a vowel in it). Anyone got any suggestions?

I bet most (if not all) short pronounceable .com domain names are already taken.th15 wrote:Finally, I have a slight problem that you guys might be able to help with.

Why can't you just put it on wyrdysm?
This is great news to hear. Very much looking forward to this. Forgive me if I sound impatient, but do you have an estimate on when the next version will be released?
For the website, you could try some other than .com, .org or .net. I have seen websites with .ws even though they don't have anything to do with Western Samoa... Also, nud.biz seems to be available.

It is good to know that NUD is still being developed. Of all the games you've made, this one has to be my favourite.
I'm glad you took up the tier 4 upgrade idea (I also particularly like the idea of branching upgrades), it should definitely make the late game more interesting. As for re-naming the game, I'd much prefer it if you kept the old name. I'm with Kaelis on keeping it here at wyrdysm.com (even if only it's just so that I don't have to add a new bookmark in my favourites menu ).
All that aside, I await the new release with bated breath.

Cool, glad to see there's more nudding in Wyrdysm's future.
Maybe nuddingnudders.com, or nudthegame.com?
Wait, on second thought, don't try nuddingnudders.com. I'm sure that's taken by fetishists too.
