Tower Defense Game Tutorial

[gfadmin]

For my Computer Science class my teacher wants me to make a simple Tower Defense game. I was wandering if anyone knows of a tutorial on the basic of a TD Game in Java.

your unlikely to find a tutorial as specific as that (for a tower defence game in java).

however there are tutorials for creating basic games in java, e.g. space invaders http://www.cokeandcode.com/tutorials
once you get the hang of that, it shouldn't be too hard to adapt it for a tower defence type game.

I don't know of any specific java TD tutorials but I did stumble across this TD tutorial for flash. It will at least give you some ideas on mechanics of the game. There are several parts to it.

And another site detailing features of TD games broken down by skill.
