About Project Myriad
Project Myriad is a tower defense strategy game. You build towers on a map of hexagons that will attack and defeat oncoming waves of enemies. Towers can be upgrade and some have varied upgrade paths. The goal is clear as many waves as possible.
Choose from a variety of unique towers that target enemies in different ways. Want to flood your enemies with damage, Storm tower is what you want. Need an extra edge against the Starfish Boss wave, then the Missile tower has your back. Mix and match placement to find your ideal build configuration.
Some towers have upgrade paths you can take to increase their efficiency in battle!
Each level allows you to weave an intricate maze to force enemies in the direction you want to, giving you more time to take them out.
Each level map can contain any number of level tiles that add strategy to the game play. Try to avoid hazardous tiles like the lightning bolt tile that speeds up enemies, or maze all the enemies into the minus tile that will deal damage to the enemies for you.
Each level has an unlimited number of enemies. How far can you get?
There are 4 types of enemies; Skull: Which is the basic Unit. Speedy: Which has slightly reduced health but increased movement. Carapace: Has increased health but when it hits half health you break it's shell and it tries to speed away. Starfish: This wave is just one Boss enemy with very high health.

"Project Myriad" is a failed attempt at making a tower defense game, the only differentiating factors being a hex map instead of the usual free-form/fixed points or square grid. And that it has worse graphics than just about every other TD game ever made (wonder why it failed?). It's very easy to make a tower defense game... there's dozens of tutorials online, even asset packs and templates that make it trivial. It's extremely difficult to make one that's enjoyable, has the right balance between placement strategy, upgrades, enemy waves, routes, map design... and that shows here quite clearly. This game features very lacklustre minimalist "art" for graphics instead of anything remotely contemporary. I'm sure the "developer" thought this would come across as "artistic", but it doesn't, it comes across as "really lazy". Yes, contemporary 3D graphics take a lot of time and effort to create. That doesn't mean it's okay not to bother! Developers must try to understand that gaming is a visual medium, and gamers spend a lot of money on high end gaming rigs for a reason. And that reason is not so they can look at lazy, phoned-in half efforts like this. It's free... now, but it wa…3 found this helpful
Игра «Project Myriad» — амбициозный эксперимент в жанре sci-fi RPG. Сюжет разворачивается в множестве параллельных вселенных, где игрок принимает решения, влияющие на судьбы персонажей. Геймплей сочетает исследование, тактику и моральные дилеммы. Графика впечатляет: детализированные локации и динамичная анимация. Звуковое сопровождение атмосферное, но иногда шумит. Плюсы: оригинальная идея, глубокий сюжет. Минусы: сложная система управления, возможные баги. Рекомендую любителям сложных, насыщенных историй.
