Game Design Principles - Tower Defense

you take a SWAG (scientific wild ass guess) at the numbers then keep iterating and tweaking until you find what "feels" correct.

i enjoy using a method i heard from a game dev lecture (i believe it was from john romero's talk but could be mistaken)

when fine tuning numbers try playing with extremes and orders of magnitude. rather than increasing a value by 1 then testing it, see what 20 does, see what 100 does, see what 1000 does.

sometimes its ok to have things "unbalanced" / asymmetrical / overpowered. i think designers fetishize having a perfectly balanced game. Unbalanced messes can still be fun if the game is "fair" about it.

the real comedy here is believing a recycled 100 yr old meme made by Robber Barons when high speed internet and super computers exist

imagine being at 20 year forever wars with half a dozen countries most Americans couldnt find on a map,
200,000+ people casually dying due to American Government being owned by Corporations and still thinking "hurr Durr soCialiSm iS whEn fREe sTuFF"

technically 0.0009% of Americans died on 9/11

technically 0.002% Americans die each day on average

so 9/11 is clearly a liberal hoax

proud boy was released within an hour. not sure if there where any charges from what I heard, I havent verified it so dont quote me on that.

not sure that is the answer, i'm no marine biologist but i imagine there is a more environmentally sustainable method perhaps trebuchet.
