We've just released a major user interface update based on player feedback. Many players felt that the tower management panel took up too much screen space and required too much mouse movement during intense rounds. This update focuses on making tower interactions faster, cleaner, and less intrusive.

New Radial Tower Interface

When selecting a Glowbot, the tower controls now appear directly beside the tower instead of in a large fixed panel on the screen.

The new interface includes:

  • Tower name

  • Upgrade button

  • Sell button

  • Close button

  • Range stat

  • Damage stat

  • Throw rate stat

The tower level display has been removed from this menu since levels are already displayed above each tower.

New Stat Bars

Tower stats now include visual progress bars:

  • Red = Low value

  • Yellow = Medium value

  • Green = High value

This makes it much easier to compare towers at a glance without reading every number.

New Tower Menu Toggle

A new eye button has been added to the HUD.

  • Open Eye = Tower build menu visible

  • Closed Eye = Tower build menu hidden

Players who prefer a cleaner screen can now quickly hide the tower placement menu and focus entirely on the action.

Improved Tower Placement Flow

Tower placement now uses a dedicated Confirm / Cancel popup that appears directly beside the newly placed Glowbot, reducing cursor travel and keeping interactions close to the tower itself.

Additional Improvements

  • Reduced screen clutter during gameplay

  • Faster tower management

  • Better support for multiple camera angles

  • Improved visibility of important gameplay information

As always, thank you for the feedback. Many of these changes came directly from player suggestions, and we'll continue refining the experience based on your comments.

Good luck defending the galaxy!
