I used a bunch of water spaces further from land because I wasn&#8217;t sure either way.","spam":"N"},{"author_name":"cap","time":"February 8, 2009 9:52 pm","epoch":1234147920,"text":"Argh, no python2.6 for me.

Tower Defense, which means that a whole lot of enemies (i.e. peasants &#8211; evil, evil peasants!) move along a fixed path, and you have to stop them from getting to the end of that path (the ominous top-right corner of the screen) using whatever means possible. The method I recommend is building sea monsters along the coast, as that&#8217;s all the game lets you do. Poison towers slow enemies, ultimate towers live up to their name. Happy peasant hunting!<\/p>\n <p>Python 2.6 + pyGame: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.megaupload.com\/?d=9E08WOXX\">download<\/a>.<\/p>\n <p>Comments appreciated!<\/p>\n \n <p>Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/tag\/final\/\" rel=\"tag\">final<\/a><\/p>","time":"February 8th, 2009 5:30 pm","title":"Nessie TD \u2013 Final"}
