Mindustry: Gameplay Ideas

Created on 1 Apr 2019 · 9Comments · Source: Anuken/Mindustry

Hi @Anuken,

thank you for this great game, it is awesome!

After playing it for quite some hours, I could imagine a few things, that would make it (maybe) even more cool - just for your consideration or to be ignored:

Automatic rebuild of destroyed infrastructure: After wave 100 the destroyer wave is always killing halfe of the dirium walls and towers. It would be great, not to have to rebuild it manually all the time, as it is already the best possible defense, the game allows ;)
Make the enemies less aggressive and more keen on reaching the core? An idea - other tower defense games have their beauty in the possibility of building long and extensive mazes - this is not possible here, as the enemies attack the first corner they encounter and kind of get stuck. It could make the game less hard in the beginning and more fun in the long run, if the enemies would prioritize finding a way to the core over destroying your defense.
Research Center: Feed resources to improve stats (attack radius, attack speed, HP) of the defense and economic blocks into the research center block(s).
Electricity: At the moment it is handled like conveyors and liquit transporters, but electricity works actually different. I would like it more, if it just works like a real-life electric network and in case of overload the wires burn through, something explodes or there is simply a power outage.

Alright, there are of course many many more ideas, but I'm sure you got plenty enough yourself.

As said already: an amazingly fun game, cheer mate!
Andreas

@Andreas-Schoenefeldt Don't forget it is April Fools Day though.

Hello @Andreas-Schoenefeldt, build 40 is an outdated version that is not being worked on anymore.

Hi @Andreas-Schoenefeldt
I assume you are playing the version 3.5 as you are talking about dirium walls.
Anuken is already working on beta 4.0 with a lot of new content.
You can check Mindustry Discord for more info :)

You can access the Beta directly on the Play Store. There should be an icon for joining the beta.
It is really amazing and add a whole bunch of new items, building, ect.
Try it out!

I don't have the discord link right now and can't access it, but I am sure you can find it if you download the beta. :)
