New Invader: Catapult #6

@bilalakil

Description

@bilalakil

The Invader form of the Hammer Stone from #5.

  • Moves slowly, quite tanky
  • Every two seconds, launches a projectile that stuns a random tower in range for ~2s. (Not sure if this should be a single tower, or area of effect. Needs playtesting 🤔)
  • Similar strategic impact to Hammer Stones: target ASAP and/or separate from pack

This implementation can take advantage of Instant Effect Simplification.

  • Create new Catapult enemy with basics implemented (no attack)
    • Sprite assets created
  • Play special sound on spawn
    • Sound asset created
  • Play special sound on destruction
    • Sound asset created
  • Catapult attack animation complete and implemented on cooldown (attack can still do nothing)
    • Sprite assets created
  • Launch projectile towards tower (can do nothing once reached)
    • Sprite asset created
      • If the sprite is asymmetrical then it needs to be rotated according to the direction it's being launched
    • A small "explosion" occurs when the projectile reaches the tower, including visual and sound components
      • Explosion VFX created
      • Sound asset created
  • Projectile stuns tower when reached, using the same stun implementation from New Stone / Tower: Hammer (red) #5
  • Introductory level created
