Hedgehold in play: a low-poly garden with a winding path, beetles marching toward the hedgehog's burrow and towers on stone pads

What it solves

The gap

Tower defence balance breaks easily: one change to a tower or an enemy can make a map impossible or trivial, and playtesting every map after each change is slow.

What it is

A finished, tested tower defence game whose maps are proven fair by a bot in seconds, with its towers, enemies and maps in one config file.

How you use it

Unzip, run npm ci and npm run dev, then edit src/game.config.ts; npm test checks the game again in seconds.

Source code of a real, playable game to reskin and learn from, with its proofs built into the tests.

Who it is for

Use it when

  • Publishing your own short tower defence game (space station, castle, kitchen) on itch.io, web portals or your site.
  • Learning deterministic simulation and automated balance testing in TypeScript.
  • Building a branded strategy mini-game for a client.

Built for

  • Web and indie game developers who know some TypeScript.
  • Studios and freelancers who make branded browser games.

What you get

One config file

Title, save key, rules, economy, four towers with three levels, six enemies, maps drawn as text, the daily map, colours and sound.

Fair by proof

On every npm test a build-order bot wins all twelve maps and 30 daily maps with three stars, while doing nothing and a two-tower build lose.

A finished game

Twelve short gardens and a daily map, wave previews, early calls, upgrades and selling, x1/x2 speed, stars and unlocks, landscape and portrait.

Tests and a guide

48 unit tests and Playwright browser runs, a size budget, an upload zip for itch.io or any static host, and a step-by-step guide to new maps, towers and enemies.
