ScriptTD is a project I have been working on for the past year now, although we officially launched a couple of months ago, I’m still working on v2.0. The goal was to create a Tower Defense game engine for Windows Phone 7, allowing people with no coding knowledge to change the data files and art/sounds to create their own Tower Defense game. This was an interesting challenge to work on, and I’m reasonably happy with the first result, however there is still plenty to add and refine.

You can get the source code for the project at http://scripttd.codeplex.com/ and there is quite a bit of information about what each XML file does. I also wrote an article which is located at http://channel9.msdn.com/coding4fun/articles/ScriptTD-Tower-Defense-Made-Easy and covers how to extend the code (C#) to create a new weapon type.

For those interested in trying out the game on their Windows Phone 7 devices, you can get it from the following marketplace link:

Be aware: it is quite challenging, but free for everyone. The game is compiled for WP7.0, so you don’t have to have Mango to run it.

I loved the first game, and this one looks like it is going to be just as great. (If not more)

Watch the video (I suggest in HD) and then go play Bioshock if you haven’t already.
