Coastal Defense is participating in the Tower Defense Fest with a 50% sale!
With the event going on, I thought I'd post some behind the scenes stuff I've made while making the game. I'll also share some of the art along with the original reference pictures!

Battleship
The battleship is actually not a real ship. I made it from scratch!
All of the equipment in the game is or has been used by the Finnish Defense Forces (Puolustusvoimat). Some of the older stuff has been museumized, and you can come see them in Finland!
Now here is some concept art and some other miscellaneous things (quality may vary):
Very early concept for turret progression
Ship concept art with an unfinished second boss
Early concept for wave progression
Concept plan for the tutorial
Scrapped turret art for being too ugly
First Coastal Defense prototype
Coastal Defense Alpha
I hope you liked this behind the scenes post!
Thanks for reading and enjoy the Tower Defense Fest!
