About Sqdef

Sqdef is a tower defense game for the GP2X handheld. The goal is to prevent enemies from getting from one side of the map to the other by placing towers along their way. There are over a dozen different buildings with upgrades, tech research, and a whole lot of maps! Sqdef also has a built-in editor that lets you make your own maps and share them with others.

Sqdef won 1st place in the GBAX 2007 Coding Competition, and has the honour of being one of the GP2X Wiz‘s built-in games! :-)

Map Packs

Sqdef map packs come as ZIP archives. Installation is done by extracting the archive to Sqdef/Maps. All maps were created by their respective authors:

Make a map pack and I will put it up here for others to download :-)

You can make new maps with Sqdef’s editor! You can zoom in to place stone tiles.

Old Screenshots

And here are a couple of screenshots from older versions of Sqdef:

The first playable build! The towers shoot, and miss.

At this point everything worked as it should have.

I eventually picked darker colours that are easier on the eyes.

This is how the GBAX 2007 release looked like.

Version 1.2 changed the colours (bad!), but brought the map editor (good!).

Version 1.4 improved the graphics and added bridges.
