What makes a Tower Defence Game Fun?

I have been playing gem craft and desktop towerdefence and used to play a mod for War Craft.

a friend from my game group have given me some pointers.

1. A story
2. A larger World Map with the different maps inside it.
3. Good Characters
4 Mana or Resource of some kind.
5. Fast Forward Button

any one have any other good ideas.

LD48 I didnt win :( And Working on Castle TD

Well They voted and I didn't win the Ludum Dare. I will definitely try again next time.
Like I have said before I think next time I will try and do a web based HTML5 game instead.
I ended up having 350 downloads so that was cool. It was fun to try it.

Castle TD is coming along. I need to figure out how to do the path finding based on NPC speed, delta time  and the resolution of the game...

Some Progress

I got the life and enemy health working.
I have new turret placement sort of working

Game Feature Outline TODOs

Just coming up with a list of things to do for Sandcastle TD
Sandcastle TD TODOs:
Create drag and drop of the turrets
Create targeting system
Create point system
Create life system for mob(hitpoints)
Create Mob Release

Nice to haves
Create Graphics - Castle, Turrets , Mob
Create Tide to wash away turrets maybe change path
Sounds
Maybe have sand dollars emit when mob is destroyed

Weirdness:
Even though my texture is based on 40x40 tiles android converts them to 30x30 not sure why
Need to figure out where to start game from.
