I Wanted A Real Challenge. I Got It.

Ngl after that first video I am extremely glad to hear this game does actually get harder

>kills broodmother >'im afraid of his insides' >'his' >tyler, what do you think a mother is?

Just sitting here and watching the giant red exclamation mark on the talents button being completely ignored by Tyler. Poor talents button, you are a valuable UI element and lead to important game mechanics too.

Ah, a little pro tip, you can click the little sword button above the tower selection mid-level to illustrate how much damage each tower did

tyler in the first stage: omg i need area damage i cant win if i dont have area damage also tyler: refuses to build hammer towers because he doesnt like them

"I need more area damage" "this hammer tower is dissappointing"

32:50 That has got to be the most unhinged thing he has said. Love it🤣

A few things to make note of: 1. Remember you can pick up block before a wave starts by pressing and holding on them so you are not committed to your first choice. 2.the game definitely expects some meta progression for heroic mode which ik ur ignoring on purpose but something to think about. 3. You can place towers on flat map structures like the bricks.

as someone who has been addicted to this game for the past few days a have a small tip about that first map, there is a whole area below your fire so you can actually curve the path all the way around instead of giving them straight shot to your fire

I'm not sure why Tyler doesn't explore the other crosspaths or think about his upgrades. Giving an ice tower +1 dmg when it does 3 already is worse than giving it 50% more attack speed. It's about 24dmg/sec(4*6/sec) vs 27dmg/sec (3*9/sec). Also if I'm not mistaken isn't it better to just build more and more ice towers over upgrading? Like on the first level he spends $40 to give an ice tower +1 dmg but he could just buy an ice tower that does 1dmg for $25. The only time it's worth upgrading is when you have boost tiles.

New aliensrock TD game, an unexpected video, but a welcome one

6:30 Your area damage tower was the hammer one. It was doing ok, but isn't great against the fast wolves, which get out of their area too fast. And I think placing your hammer in a way that it hits 3 path tiles would make it quite a bit more effective. Kinda hard to do sometimes though.

Yes! Make Emberward a full series! Your knowledge in tower defense games spanning all the way back to Bloons, this game seems perfect for you! And I've been loving watching Emberward content lately. I might have to pick this game up!

tyler round one: "OH GOD" snowball tower: "OH HELLO THERE"

I think this is the fastest i’ve busted out laughing at a video because nothing could’ve prepared me for Hydrogen Tyler

Snowball tower was the goat in this run

The difference between normal and heroic is nuts

hope to see more episodes of this game!! i love emberward for how unique each run is, have been playing it a lot recently lol

he underestimated the hardness

I like how the game calls him a hand full 😂 18:40
