The first walls of a maze on Barrow Ford, the track bending around them towards the keep

What it solves

The gap

Open-field tower defence needs pathfinding that reacts to every build, a fair rule against sealing the path, and enemies that never get stuck.

What it is

This template gives you a BFS flow field, a blocking check, three towers, five enemies and a finished game around them.

How you use it

Unzip, serve the folder and open index.html, then edit game.js; npm test plays it again in headless Chrome.

Source code of a real, playable game to reskin and learn from, with a smoke test whose bot plays it.

Who it is for

Use it when

  • Publishing your own maze-building tower defence on itch.io, web portals or your site.
  • Learning how a complete maze-building tower defence is built in plain JavaScript and Canvas 2D.
  • Building a branded mini-game for a client.

Built for

  • Web and indie game developers who know some JavaScript.
  • Developers who want a finished, tested game to build on instead of a blank canvas.

What you get

Maps

Each map is 11 rows of text with '.', 'R', 'G' and 'K'; add one to MAPS with a bot plan of wall lines.

Balance

TOWERS and ENEMIES are plain tables, and waveList(w) builds each wave, so tuning is a few numbers.

No build step

Plain JavaScript and Canvas 2D with no runtime dependencies; open index.html through any static server and edit game.js.

A smoke test

A headless Chrome test loads the game, checks the console, presses keys and taps, and lets the built-in bot play a run to its result screen.
