# Tower Defense

A playbook for tower defense — enemy pathing, wave spawning, tower targeting, and the
economy that ties them together. This is a **compositional** skill: it orchestrates pathing,
AI, and UI into a TD loop. It does not re-teach pathfinding; it defines the systems and the
balance levers (DPS vs. HP vs. income) that decide whether a TD is tense or trivial.

## When to use

- Use when building a game where the player **places towers** that automatically attack
  **waves of enemies** following a path, spends earned currency to expand/upgrade, and loses
  if too many enemies leak through.
- Use when designing wave composition/pacing, tower targeting priorities, or the gold economy.
