It's a new year and we are looking forward to bringing more content to 2112TD!

We’ve made a start on the next major update. As we are still in the early stages I wanted to share a roadmap of planned features and changes coming to get some feedback and thoughts.

FEATURES

CONFIRMED
  • Biomass – A new resource that has a chance to drop from fallen enemies which can be harvested by the player. Processing biomass will earn credits and bonus XP. The tougher the monster, the more valuable their biomass.
  • Recovery Drone – A new controllable vehicle that is capable of harvesting biomass and returning it to the command centre for refinement. It can also be upgraded with weapons.
  • Drone Menu – Drones are now purchased and do not run out of fuel or leave the map
  • Passive Drone Weapons - low damage weapons for both drones that automatically engage targets in range. This will need to be researched. The tactical drone will have a burst cannon and the recovery drone will have a pulse laser.
  • 3 Bonus Maps - Continuing the story campaign which will take place on the Carrier and Earth's Moon. Each map will be available to play in normal, hard, nightmare and survival. The maps will be tough.
  • New Anti-air Support Ability – Specifics on this are still yet to be determined but we are thinking of adding a missile launched from orbit that detonates mid air, damaging all nearby flying enemies.
  • QOL – New UI audio feedback for drones to help identify them and their commands
  • 3 additional upgrade tiers for experimental towers when playing survival mode (Maybe nightmare). These are just a flat 5% damage bonus to help those who think they can reach even higher waves ;-)
  • New Research tree for the recovery drone and anti-air support ability

UNDER REVIEW
  • Drone experience - As drones will now be purchasable and always on the map they can gain experience and level up. Each level will provide a small bonus to stats (damage / movement speed / range etc..) We are not sure whether to make the experience gained permanent or reset on death.
  • Super elites – A new tier of enemies that hit hard and have higher hit points. They only appear in survival (maybe nightmare on the new maps).
  • Cloud save
  • Leader board - Something we really want to implement but might be pushed back.
  • Achievements for some of the new features and changes

KEY CHANGES
  • Drone functionality / Behaviour – Probably the most significant change coming.
    • Purchased for credits
    • Can be destroyed by thinkers and will need to be repurchased
    • Do not run out of fuel or time out
    • Tactical drone behaviour is the same (assigned to turrets and the CMD)
    • Recovery drone can be moved anywhere on the map
    • Tactical drone abilities will now have a cool down between uses to balance it no longer leaving the map
  • Tech points now awarded up to level 40 to balance the new research upgrades
There are many other changes and improvements that will be coming to compliment the new features and improve the overall experience which are mostly UI related.

Here's a little teaser of the first map coming in a future update.

The campaign continues and the player must defend the damaged ship from the west while final repairs are carried out. There will likely be some pre-built turrets for this map when playing normal / hard.

Next map is finished!

This one will be a familiar sight except it has been expanded to the south. After the destruction of the Carrier the fleet has returned to the moon to repair the communications base and re-established contact with Earth and the colonies.

You definitely won't want to neglect the walls on this map ;-)

Map art for the third map, return to the moon part 2 is complete!

Don't be deceived by the simple road layout. This will be a tough one with flying units attacking from a flesh wing nest to the south.

We've just released 1.31

- Reduced memory usage
- Minor optimisations

Good luck commanders and have fun!
 
Commanders!

We have temporarily disabled cloud save on android in order to fix an underlying issue that can cause crashes on some devices.

If you were experiencing crashes then please update to the latest version which should be live very soon.
 
Commanders!

We are excited to announce the release of our second major content update (1.5) for 2112TD.

The update is packed with tons of features and the changes requested by players, including bonus maps, new research upgrades, cloud save and more. It is free to anybody who already owns the game, just update to the latest version to get stuck in.

CONTENT UPDATE HIGHLIGHTS
  • The Campaign Continues…
    The Carrier forces have been defeated and left in disarray after the destruction of their overlords. UEDI forces must be rallied and a forward base established on the Moon in order to re-establish communications with Earth. The catastrophic effects of the invasion must be determined so that a counter offensive can be initiated.
  • Unlock New Research
    UERI scientists have been working tirelessly to get the upper hand on the invaders. Turrets can now be pushed to their limit with the new “fine tune” research upgrade. Communications logistics can be upgraded further to gain control of support units quicker.
  • Cloud Save (iOS Only, Android Coming Soon)
    Cloud save support has been added for iOS so you can now save your progress across multiple devices. Android support will be coming in a future update.
  • Balancing Improvements
  • Many balancing features and changes have been added to improve difficulty across all game modes, especially during the early game. New bonus XP awards, better tech point progression, faster tower construction and much more!
  • Tutorial Overhaul
    The initial tutorial has been streamlined with the option to now skip for TD veterans who want to get stuck in straight away. New tool tips have been added throughout the campaign to help players get acquainted with their defences and foes.
Full patch notes for 1.5 can be read here.

Hello Everyone,

We have been busy updating 2112TD to a new version of Unity and preparing localisations.

While this won’t be the most glamorous release to date it will bring some major performance improvements, especially those playing on lower end devices. The Unity upgrade will also pave the way for additional improvements going forward.

Preparations are currently underway to bring 2112TD to new regions and the following languages will soon be supported:

American English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazilian), Spanish, Russian and Simplified Chinese

We have a beta period planned for this update where players will be able to get early access and play the new version before the public release. If your native language is listed above and you would like to experience the translations before the public release then get in touch - info@refineryproductions.com
