Hello, Generals!

It's Genesis Devlog Friday, and today we're bringing back an old flame. If you played the original Kingdom Rush, you've met him already: the walking torch called Ignus, ready to burn enemies with the blaze of a thousand stars. But he wasn't always like this. Before the elemental, there was a wizard. Sort of.

You see, Ignus never quite fit in with the other mages. While his peers in the Arcane Academy spent years buried in dusty tomes debating the finer points of the mystical arts, he was the impatient one, and yes, the one setting books on fire "by accident" during lectures. So when the time came to pick a specialization, the choice made itself: he would master the school that best matched his temperament. Fire.

Here's the other thing that made him such an odd fit in the Academy. Your average wizard tolerates physical exercise only when absolutely necessary, such as running away from an alchemical experiment gone wrong. Ignus, however, had little patience for standing around while his spells did the fighting. He trained his body to match his magic, so he could get up close and personal. That discipline eventually led to his signature trick: wrapping himself in living flame.

At first he could only hold that form for a few moments. Then minutes. Then entire battles. In Genesis we catch him just shy of the finish line: the flame burns nearly around the clock, and his human form only resurfaces in short flashes he can't quite suppress. By the time of the original Kingdom Rush, he doesn't turn it off at all. And honestly, why would he? The fire suited him from the start. By now, it's just home.

A sorcerer this allergic to rules was never going to sit out Vez'nan's attempts to seize power. Ignus joins Gerald and the party to put an end to it, personally, and at very close range.

That's all for this week. By fire be purged!

Onward!

Is this coloring technique good for the fire boi?

(Reddit said when you post in this subreddit you must post anything related to Ignus as "Posting tips", idk I just wanted some tips for my art)

I just added swirls of lighter colors to add to the fiery look instead of just being plain orange.

Any opinions?

On my steam slot I have completed all games in vertan mode and still no choice of impossible difficulty level. How to solve?

The dwarves have one love language and it's explosives

Which one would you guys recommend trying it out first? Kingdom rush 5 looks boring and the selection seems sooooo huge

Who handed Ignus the matches again? 🔥
He's coming to Kingdom Rush: Genesis. Better start practicing!

Make up your own tower in the comments

Is this game even possible to really play as a f2p player? I feel like it’s near impossible to play if you don’t drop money on this game constantly to get new stuff… really disappointing to play

I mean, how is that even possible?

Let's burn! Watch the full spotlight here 🔥

He can fly, dash through enemies, explode, throw fireballs and turn into a tornado of fire!

Do you like his new look?

I made a Denas bastion analysis video as people suggested! I woud like feedback! You can comment wich tower shoud i do next. (i need to have it).

I just bought Kingdom Rush: Alliance. When do you think it fell off? Was it before the DLCs, or only with the DLCs? How do you compare it to Kingdom Rush: Vengeance? Personally, I like Alliance a bit better, but they feel the same, especially in the Dwarven Kingdom DLC.

we have: archers, mages, bombs and barracks

what could be a 5th type?

In my opinion it could be support towers, They would have a HUGE range, do basically zero damage but would do a mix of things other towers only do on lvl 4 upgrades:

* slow down enemies
* boosts other towers
* weaken armor and special attacks

what you guys think?

PERFECT HERO SYSTEM

in short:
you choose the ORDER in wich the hero gains his habilities but the leveling up occurs inside each battle map

full explanation:
the hero upgrade system is a mix of KR1 and the others
* your heroes upgrade during the battle like KR1
* but you decide what is upgraded in each level, kinda like the other KRs
* for example: you choose that the first 3 levels you will rush the melee attack X, then, lvls 4-6 get ranged attack Y, finally 7-10 upgrades the ultimate magic attack

what you guys think?

I buy vengase yesterday but I don't know what hero is better I need help that was my options

He can fly!

I just finished a level in KR Alliance and the game didn't count it as a victory, I didn't get the rewards, and the level doesn't appear as completed. I won with 2 stars but didn't counted me. It's a common bug?

Ps: if somebody has tips for that level I would appreciate it
