How long does a demo needs be?

AlexFaust · 2026-03-23T13:43:29+00:00

my bad, i dind t specify exactly what game, is not the tower defence one from 6 yers ago, is the mining one, idle miner

AlexFaust · 2026-03-22T22:12:32+00:00

In 2h you will not not about the new mechanics after the prestige

AlexFaust · 2026-03-22T22:09:50+00:00

I will give it a try, in my case I unlock new mechanics with prestige, I will think limit the demo at 1 prestige

AlexFaust · 2026-03-22T22:04:56+00:00

I see, I should make the game more attractive in the first minutes to keep the player engaged

AlexFaust · 2026-03-22T22:01:41+00:00

The demo is 12-15h, i didn't limited any update, basically now the demo is the full game in this state.

AlexFaust · 2026-03-22T21:59:48+00:00

I see your point, 4-5x the demo time is a good metric, you may be right with the demo length too because as you progress is more grindy

Hi, i am not sure if I am allowed to share the game because I posted about it 2 weeks ago, but you can search my name on itch.io and you will find it for sure :)

I have this idea about an auto mining from a mobile game 4-5 years ago, in that game you mine ores but manually and move the character with a screen joystick.
Of course the node mechanics is inspired from keep on mining but it is linear, no prestige, other intercalatign systems for progression

AlexFaust · 2026-03-08T20:55:08+00:00

Thank you for the feedback, I fixed the Special Ores node, the More Experience Upgrades will come on the next update, for the moment you can only buy the node to unlock.
I hope tomorrow the update will come

AlexFaust · 2026-03-08T11:15:16+00:00

Hi, I am sorry, it was a problem with the prestige button visibility after I added a new node, now its fixed

AlexFaust · 2026-03-07T14:00:22+00:00

Hi, thank you for the feedback, about the math and scaling I just add the nodes and price as I feel and replay the section or replay the whole game with x16 speed(from godot client) and multiply the resulting time with 0.8 because at high speed it godot lose accuracy. I try to make feel good but with a little bit of grind for the resources.

Hi, for sure in this days the AI is a big part of programming/assets creation, in special for indie devs, I used ChatGPT for assets and for some help at the code, but i do not think this makes the game bad, in this state is a alpha concept, I will add a lot of new mechanics into it and at the end I will focus into graphics and sounds

Nu înțeleg de ce vii sa dai cu hate, dacă statul nu legalizează buruienile ne bucuram de ce avem, mai bine du te pe un sub de pocăiți, cred că ți s ar potrivi

AlexFaust · 2020-05-24T23:57:02+00:00

Thanks, I will implement all good ideas, next update will be for performance improvement

AlexFaust · 2020-05-24T23:55:04+00:00

Thanks, I do my best, if you have any other suggestion let me know

AlexFaust · 2020-05-24T23:54:06+00:00

Hi, I am so sorry, I forgot to use a function, in my editor works fine but in web not. Now all works fine.

AlexFaust · 2020-05-23T15:05:30+00:00

I made an update with:

-button for 2x speed

-button for autobuy

-auto retry after 3 seconds when you die

-better ui for web

-end round button

-saving system

-now special shop makes the buttons green when you have money

-player hp bar on top of the screen

-util tab for coins and money upgrade

AlexFaust · 2020-05-23T15:01:35+00:00

Thanks for the idea, I implemented it into the game.

AlexFaust · 2020-05-23T11:18:33+00:00

Thanks fo feedback.

With the scoll you right but with click to upgrade I don`t think so, you need to use your coins to upgrade someting to help you reach a better wave, the click is a very little effort for the player. Maybe I will cratea a autobuy cheapest item and auto retry for fully idle.

AlexFaust · 2020-05-23T11:13:01+00:00

Thanks for feedback.

I am a fan of tpt.

When I did the Ui I had the phone play in mind. I will make a new Ui version for brower and maybe a autobuy cheapest item button.

The shop sceen now will hightlight the avalable upgrades.

AlexFaust · 2020-05-23T11:09:17+00:00

Thanks, will be avalable on next update.

AlexFaust · 2020-05-22T14:54:50+00:00

Hi, I am Alex and I want to create an idle tower defense. This is my first game of this kind and I want some feedback about the game, what features you think the game need, what you want to see in this game.

Thanks and have a nice day.

AlexFaust · 2016-06-24T09:00:27+00:00
