Hello everyone.

Let me introduce myself, my name is Killian and I come from Switzerland. I play video games since my childhood and I hope to live my passion for video games one day. =)

I use Construct 2 for several weeks now and I am happy to present my first game. Catacomb is an action tower defense inspired by the game Catacomb Snatch made by Notch during the Mojam 1.

I am at the beginning of my project. There are still some bugs but the movement of the player and the core gameplay is there.

The game should be available on PC / Mac / Linux. A Windows 8 version is also planned.

The game looks great. Nice control, great graphics and remindme a little at great Gauntlet.

Great! <img src="smileys/smiley32.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Nice start! You've got a lot of potential with this one. Will follow development for sure.

Cool sprites, fast loading ^^

Kuso Thanks ! I'm glad you like it.

theubie Thanks ! I hope you like the next improvements.

lemo Thanks ! But I need to optimize the map generation.

Nice graphics and effects. I liked the Gauntlet / TD concept also. Really Good!

pcfernandesjr Thank you! =)

Great looking style, neat animations and good controls. This has potential, that's for sure. Did you make the sprites yourself? Very Spelunky-like.

Very nice graphics.Waiting for the next level, where is the mummy ? <img src="smileys/smiley32.gif" border="0" align="middle" />.

Look here: catacombsnatch.net

At least it looks quite similar. Afaik it's from the first Mojam Humble Bundle. Don't know about the license though.

Have fun

— Thanks! I use the sprite of Catacomb Snatch but for the next versions, I'll make new sprites from scratch. =)

Tedg Thanks! New maps en mobs soon ;)

— The project is open source.

New version online ! =)

Have fun

Very nice! Infinite turrets are awesome! <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Some little things I?m sure you know:

• The left monster generator never breaks until the right generator not has been destroyed. Then, both generators are destroyed.
• In the upper walls, the different stones are not really align and if you walk pressing diagonal up+right/left you get stuck on the borders. Some times between stones can see a line of separation (I use Chrome).

Really good work! <img src="smileys/smiley20.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

for some reason in the new one using IE player never rotates. sounds also seem glitch. always fires to the right. maybe an IE issue?

also, bats spawn above the spawners... playing on a surface RT with Windows RT on IE10
