Towers/antibiotic dispensers should have special abilities coupled with their attacks:

• slow down the enemy/pathogen
• prevent the enemy/pathogen from reproducing/dividing
• prevent the enemy/pathogen from healing/repairing
• slow down the enemy/pathogen overall speed/metabolism (includes movement, reproduction, repair)
• pierce the enemy skin/pathogen cell wall ie direct damage/damage per second
• deal damage on division
• insta kill on division
• deal damage on movement

Currently, testers have to enter the number of a version to test it. This makes it painful to test out the last one - they have to go through increasing numbers in the urls until the 404.

Towers/antibiotic dispensers should deal different amounts of damage on different types of enemies/different strains of pathogens.

• wave indicator - issue #43
• integrate resistance bar - issue #39
• remove life bar - issue #39
  • remove new mechanic where resistance AND lives are defeat conditions
  • remove life bar UI
• level indicator
• new menu button & menu
• new pause button & menu
• new retry button & menu

Money is paid but the upgrade is not done. It is possible to try again later but it fails again.

Aim : demonstrate that too many ABs damage the human body, instead of using game mechanics (simulated evolution of pathogens = duplication, mutation, selection).

Life bar: gets reduced every time a pathogen slips through the defences, and for every excess AB. Life bar at 0 = immediate defeat. Life bar low due to AB: resistant enemies on next level / wave.

Resistance bar: the more excess AB is given, the more numerous resistant pathogens will appear in the next level / wave

• Towers have different lifetimes - improvement on issue #13
• Towers building/deployment time - issue #14
• Towers have specific locations they can be built on

• Towers should vanish after some time, to introduce the notion of using an antibiotic during the prescribed duration.
• Towers should have an operating cost in addition to the building cost.
• Removal cost should be zero.
• Removal should be worded along the line of "stop generating the tower" or "stop inflating the tower", in a way that shows removal is passive, keeping the tower running is active.

• Tutorial chapters, divided in a yet-to-be-determined number of levels and waves:

• Use new health / resistance bar - issue #39

• 2D orthographic camera
• UI

Use different sprites for the enemies/pathogens

Connect the game to an analytics tool, eg RedMetrics

• create event types
• create event static parameters
• create event custom parameters
• integrate RedMetrics
• insert all calls
• document in wiki

To fix:

• looping sounds keep playing during pause by default.

Tips:

• use particle effects?

To do:

• add RM and sounds on sound control events - on slider release
• modulate sound on some events
  • deflection sound volume should depend on percentage of damage deflected
  • pathogen spawn sound pitch should depend on pathogen health points
• background music
  • play music in background
  • allow 1 track per level
  • don't restart if using same music
  • loop
  • pitch increases when fast-forward is used
  • background music starts during fake loading screen, should start after

Inner models have a scale > 1.0 which are not applied to the colliders

• Enemy with scale = 1.0
  • SphereCollider component with Radius = 1.0
  • Inner model with scale > 1.0

Buttons menu, pause, retry are not distributed well on the top right corner.

• buttons are equally distributed horizontally
• distribution is conserved across localizations statically
• distribution is conserved across localizations dynamically

• vertical carousel
• route of administration - issue #15
• change appearance of next and previous turret (top and bottom neighbours in list)
• smooth movement and transitions
• Android
• computer
• manage the fact that not all antibiotics have all routes of administration
• differentiate n different antibiotics x p different routes

Those classes would be better off being ScriptableObject:

• TurretBlueprint
• Attack

This leads to extreme visual distorsions on enemies

Pathogens:

• reproduce

• are selected with antibiotics having different effects - issue #5 "Towers/antibiotic dispensers abilities"

• mutate

• one constant number for all attributes

• one random number for all attributes

• one random number per attribute

• mutation induces more resistance

• mutation induces more or less resistance, randomly

• mutate only:

  • cell daughter after cell mother has been wounded
  • after HGT

• the more it is mutated, the more it will mutate

• visual effects

  • resistance effect (continuous)
  • mutate effect (discrete)
  • HGT effect (discrete)

• UI resistance bar (gauge) - issue #39 "Resistance / Life bar": Resistance bar: the more excess AB is given, the more numerous resistant pathogens will appear in the next level / wave
• computation of resistance score taking into account...
  • step 1: the number of towers
  • step 2: the cumulative sum of towers resistance cost

The user can click o the help button then on game elements to get a 1-step tutorial explaining the game element.

• UI
• pathogens
• turrets
• NodeUI (turret UI) - always works but displays the Tutorials UI in the wrong location
• translations of all help texts

Leads to explain bugs:

• Game Objects: click event may be captured by other script (esp. turret because NodeUI appears)
• GameObjects: interface IPointerDownHandler was used instead of MonoBehaviour's OnMouseDown system. Also: overlapping Colliders intercept the clicks and isTrigger must be true.
• NodeUI: it is uniquely a World Space Canvas

May be linked to Time.deltaTime being too big on Android. Will require bigger tolerance on distance from waypoint to trigger movement to next one.

• procedural system to unlock tower dynamically instead of the static, manual activation in the Unity editor

• background by Radhika
• background integration
• lungs game mode
  • no blood vessel
  • objectives are captured sequentially

• waypoint: inherits the waypoint index
• reward: halved from mother cell
• life: inherited from mother cell
• set a maximum enemy count, otherwise it forkbombs
• make it possible to prevent duplication when wounded

Towers should have a building/deployment time linked to the route of administration:

• topical treatment like skin creams and inhalable antibiotics have almost instant effect, and therefore should be built/deployed very quickly.
• injections have a quick effect.
• edible antibiotics have a slow effect.

• enemy appearance
• enemy wobbly movements
• fix the lifebar by restructuring the prefabs
• credit the bacteria textures in the README.md
• instead of parameter minimumDistance, use a ratio of horizontalShift

Uses:

• Gameplay-unrelated but theme-related info: pathogens, diseases, treatments, ...
• Gameplay-related, eg "too much ABs", explaining the game mechanics, ...

Kind of like a simplified issue #30.

For scenarization and immersion's sake, add animation / game art to set the background of the game.

Indicator of advancement through the wave schedule

• 1: discrete increases (jumps)
