Upcoming Delays & Project Info
TD was originally built as a technical showcase for PolyDart's Core — not as a full-featured, content-complete game. The recent soft release confirmed what we already knew: the current scope of a polished, complete tower defense game is beyond what the PolyDart team can support right now.
Key points:
-
TD’s limited release saw minimal traction, despite outreach across multiple communities.
-
The lead developer has since taken on a full-time role elsewhere.
-
Core — the foundation of TD — has critical issues that need addressing (performance, collisions, persistence). These problems were previously deprioritized to accelerate development but now block further progress.
-
Because Core is used across multiple projects, it takes precedence.
That said, you may still see updates roll out over time — not for new features, but as a result of internal Core changes. These will be maintenance-driven, not content-focused.
TL;DR: TD’s completion would require years at this point. Don’t expect a release date anytime soon.
Thanks for the support and understanding,
~ PolyDart
