New Icon and banner! Sorry for the long silence with saying anything, haven’t really been focused all that much on YouTube. But I did end up making a new icon with an updated design of Strike, and slightly newer art style. The banner on the other hand is temporary until I draw a better one.
Video wise, progress has been made on ToCN : PR video, I have been a bit lazy on it I will admit. Also have worked on ToF : PR (F1-5 finished)
ToAD, why? Who genuinely complained about this tower, like I didn’t really see that much hate for it, or even at all. (I don’t know the current reason of why it was revamped) Doesn’t even help it’s just yet again that samey modern style, making it less distinct, and honestly uninteresting.
ToT wasn’t too bad, the style was kinda weird where sometimes it felt more unique but then sometimes it was samey. Though yet again doesn’t blend in well with ring 2, leading to inconsistency again.
Alr, so 2 more revamps just got added to EToH and here’s my opinions.
ToPHaT honestly just felt like the same thing again, though it did feel a bit more distinct at certain sections when it utilized transparent parts, but still honestly not that great since it pretty much was the same gp structure as some of the other revamps.
ToLL on the other hand, honestly well done, it uses distinct gp structure making it not feel like the other revamps, though it is because they kept the same style instead of overhauling it by a huge amount, which I can stand by. Though my only question is why did ToLL get a revamp? It didn’t really seem like it was a hated tower, pretty sure I saw multiple people praising it. Even then I still thought it was good, just maybe a bit unnecessary.
I wanted to do an experiment with tower revamps (including upcoming ones) and their old versions, basically I wanted to see if they truly blended in or not, I used a grayscale effect to help make it easier to notice differences and similarities on image 3-4. And in a way I was surprised by the results, the revamps seem to blend in with each other by a decent amount compared to their old versions.
This mainly comes down to a factor called “Gameplay Structure” ,,, the best way to describe it is how certain parts/sections are placed in the tower (or another way to compare it is like the architecture of the tower)
In no way are most of the old versions better than the revamps, BUT the revamps are lacking in terms of uniqueness, or anything that sets them apart. Even though most of these revamps are by the same creator, older towers by the same creators were pretty distinct (for example ToI, ToOH (old), and ToFT (old) are all pretty distinct in terms of their gameplay structure)
This could become an issue depending on how much this is done.
Just finished the revamp! May do some more small improvements along the way but honestly proud of it. I also made sure to not forget about a certain skip…
Honestly satisfied with how I’m doing so far, keeping it at close to the original while improving its issues. Shame TC doesn’t have everything at the moment so I kinda had to imitate the X launchers.
I may do ToF : PR again next since I didn’t feel too happy with it, and ToHS : PR probs
Revamp of ToOH is already in the works by It_plant, why am I not surprised it doesn’t fit in ring 2 style. The revamp wasn’t bad, but I kinda already have seen this gp style used a decent amount to where it doesn’t seem interesting, and it basically just made this feel kinda meh.
If you guys like it that’s fine, but personally I don’t like this tower anymore, and just feels like it will be forgettable now.
I may try to do a proper revamp thingy again with ToOH

And with that ToF won the vote, I was genuinely thinking the votes would be more equal (like 3 to 4) but ToD basically got screwed over lol
Anyways progress update on ToCN : PR, it’s about to be finished, all that’s really left is F10 and music addition

Here’s progress on ToOH : Proper Revamp!
Honestly satisfied with how I’m doing so far, keeping it at close to the original while improving its issues.
Shame TC doesn’t have everything at the moment so I kinda had to imitate the X launchers.
I may do ToF : PR again next since I didn’t feel too happy with it, and ToHS : PR probs
I’ll make a video on it when done!
