Battle of the Toys

I've decided to start a mini project while I have some free time between Chao Raising, so here it is, Battle of the Toys! Basicly it's an Aeon style map, defend your Lego Fort, 3 different spawn buildings for each side, probably about 9 to 12 different spawns, not counting mercs. Each team has 4 Mud Pillars (towers) and 1 Pebble Cannon, these are the main base defenses.

The map is small, only 64x64, but it's designed to cram lots of action into a small package. You can't go far without being pelted by enemy fire, towers are close together, spawns don't need to go far to reach the enemy. Get the idea? Good. The map is basicly an open area, not many doodads, just some oversized rocks at the moment to give everything a "small" feel. The map is designed so that all spawns will meet in the same lane, but they all start on seperate ones.

There will only be one Hero at the moment, the Toy Tinkerer, but he will have a wide range of abilities. With one, you can take command of one of your team's toys, allowing you to build up a small army of toys for yourself :) Another one will be the ability to transform into your Toy Technician mode, allowing you to repair damaged toys and build new ones for yourself. You will also be able to transform into a special toy, which may have it's own ability. I haven't decided on an ultimate, but it may be a spinoff of engineering upgrade, giving your abilities a boost.

Another major aspect will be the availablity of mercenaries. They will play a key part in the game, if you don't buy any your enemies will eventually overwhelm you. Most will be cheap, with a low cooldown, but stronger ones will be the opposite. All mercs will be different from the normal spawns, there will probably be about 8 or 10 of them.

These are the spawns I have planned so far:

Lego Fort- Lego Soldier, Lego Knight, Slingshot

Army Tent- Army Man, Tank, Rocketeer

Techno Hut- CamCar, RC Plane, Electronic Transformer

Tell me what you think of that so far, I need opinions!

In a way, yes, but you don't need to build spawners, they are there already. And you can't build structures. Anyways, here's some screenshots. Timmy is located in the center of the map, he sits on his tower and attacks anyone who comes close. This area will also be a central battle area for heros, so this will make sure there is always some action.
