Project Details
The conception of FarmerTD originated from a brainstorming session between the senior students. Originally a combination of Slime Rancher and Orcs Must Die the project changed from sucking up enemies and planting them to purchasing seeds from an in game shop. This project taught me a lot about creative collaboration, wave management, inheritance and managing a small team within a larger organisation.
