Gravedigger TD v0.54 (beta)

Created by Gravedigger5454
Help from Jason X57, Doomhammer, Catch22, Mini-Me, yyz1992, Dungla, MagnusCalgar and Preskooldude

Currently the map is at a beta stage with
v0.54 which is %54 of v1

How it's unique
In most TDs towers will have some special power, but they will all attack in the same way. In my TD their are 16 tower types (22 in v1) and they all attack in a different way. For example, destruction towers are aimed manually at a point, stealth can disappear or reapear whenever you want, and air towers blow enemies away from wherever they're going. Through these unique towers (many cool abilities for towers within their types), the gameplay is already very different from your standard TD, strategies and mazes created have to be completely different if you hope to complete all of the 50 current levels. Also their are seven modes with many more to be added later. Each mode plays very differently, and some are unlike any TD I've ever played. Note that some of the most unique modes are still being implemented.

Map Summary
Gravedigger TD is a unique TD that can be considered a full TD game in it's finished form. Modes and gameplay are intended to ensure it is exciting for every gamer. Casual gamers will love the arcade feel of the Fill The Graves Mode while Hardcore gamers may enjoy the extreme difficulty of the Heroic Endurance mode. While everyone may like playing a match of rumble pit, a hero arena like mini-game. More mini-games and more modes will be constantly added as new versions are released. Post a complete discription of your mode idea and it will be considered to add to future versions, if used you will be given credit.
