Description
A secret organisation called the Prosperous commissioned a project to control the world’s population using Control Towers. On activation the project took a catastrophic turn and 29 Years Later they are now looking to you to help take the world back…

Hello and welcome to the last ever map in the 28/29 Years Later saga! This epic finale concludes over 50 hours of gameplay which spans 24 maps. Now experience 6 possible endings depending on your final morale plus 1 bonus ending. This map features over 150 custom assets, 100’s of scripts and events and has had over 100 hours put into it. I hope you have enjoyed the ride and as always liking and favouring this map is massively appreciated as who knows, maybe we’ll be back one day…

Special thanks to:

-Soapp for testing the maps and translating all 70,000 words of text to Chinese!
-Bow-Car for his testing and the Chinese voice work in numerous maps.
-KarEssMoua for his testing, voice work and providing map making insights. Search for "The Following " and "Cubes " on the Steam Workshop to experience his brilliant maps!
-Khazmylar for testing and feedback. Search for "Aidan's Journey" on the Steam Workshop for another immersive custom campaign story.
-Verowak for streaming on Twitch and voicing Rachel Smith and the Intelligence!
-Kensei for streaming the maps on Twitch and voicing the Intelligence.
-비행돼지 (flyingpig10) who has also been streaming the maps on Twitch!

And finally the hundreds of you who have up-voted the maps and gave all sorts of kind comments. The past 6 months in particular have been tough for us and in total over 1500 hours has been spent making the 24 maps. Without all of your support we wouldn’t have been motivated to finish. So thank you all for helping to make it happen from start to finish!

I've beaten the official campaign and other custom maps like the whole Rush Rush series, but they're a bit of a different format. I like to be able to build out my base and kind of establish a defensive line while scouting/clearing, but some maps in this campaign kinda force you to play a different style and it seems too difficult to actually get ahead of the curve sometimes, at least for me. I've put hundreds of hours in before trying out these maps so that's probably why its more difficult for me to change up my playstyle.

I do think this campaign is overall significantly better than the official one, so thank you for all your hard work and I did really have fun with it overall. The story is actually really interesting. Luckily I could just watch Kensei play the maps I couldn't beat so I could keep up with the story.

Sorry to hear you struggled with the difficulty. It is hard to cater for 100% of players. Not sure how far you've made it with survival mode and the official campaign, but TAB is inherently hard and the game design is the enjoyment of learning from mistakes and doing better the next time, but it’s not for everyone. If I ever come back to map making in TAB I’ll look to add an even easier difficulty for those looking to just follow the story. Thank you for playing and the feedback.

Too hard for a novice player, even with calling in the extra titans. Waves just get too big too fast and i'm stuck spend too many resources defending instead of clearing the map. Made it to the "final wave", which is obviously not meant to be beatable. Probably not gonna try again since that took a super long time and honestly wasn't really enjoyable for me since I kinda knew I wasn't getting anywhere. If you come back to making maps, try to make the "easy" mode a little easier, this is like the 4th mission I've had to skip because of difficulty.

@ImKibitz yes you finally played 29YL!!!!! I was a big fan of your TAB video's and your playthrough of 28YL hence why you got a cameo, and now I am excited to watch through your playlist :D

2023年6月11日,等你跟新30年前,已经等了很久了。个人建议,可以把游戏原剧情模式里面的英雄模式,加入进来,这样游戏不会那么枯燥,还可以加一些其他游戏模式,如果要是一直都是发育造兵守家,玩多了就比较枯燥了。:steamhappy:

I know I went a long time not bothering with it until I found that out!

Wow, "boolean" variables actually store a string instead of a boolian. That information is just a little bit important!
POBmaestro  [author] Oct 30, 2022 @ 1:30pm 
@ramboing - it's all to do with custom variables (CV). So I've named the morale CV as "MC", which you choose at the start of the map. Then certain events only trigger if MC > X. It's the same for all the other variables. So some menu's only show based on certain decisions which will execute a change to each custom variable. You can also have formula that can change CV such as the biosphere energy which I called "bio1" and this can be inserted into text like so: {bio1}

You can also have Boolean custom variables. For example the train system I created does this. For example for the car1C custom variable I created it starts as "Wood" but if the user selects Stone then it changes the CV to "Stone" which can be inserted into text as {car1C}

Like I said the last map has 100's of scripts so it's a bit of a spider web once you've been away a while. I might get time in a couple of weeks to do a video if that helps.
