welder and shield


The latest level is a dangerous place on its own. While you meet some resistance, the bulk of the danger is the place itself. Not only there are different places full of electrical discharges, all the walls reflect your shots making you consider each shot you take. This can be used to your advantage though as you can try to exterminate an enemy that is right behind the corner.

Speaking of enemies, the biggest addition is Welder. Its primary function is to, well, weld things. It always looks for stuff to fix but whenever it finds something that should not be there, which in most cases means and intruder, it follows it and zaps.


The best protection against the discharges is an energetic shield. Welder has one as a protection during welding. It is also the first robot in the game that is able to create and recall a shield. This makes it a bit harder enemy.

But it was not the case all the time. The shield was partially based on the shield from Another World where you could create it, stick the end of your gun beyond it and shoot at the enemies. The shields in Tea For God worked exactly the same. And they did work so in both directions, which means that you could stick the end of the gun through the enemies shield and disintegrate it with a single shot.


With narrow and short corridors it was extremely easy to do so, as enemies where literally at your arm's length. The bad thing about it is that sometimes you haven't even noticed that the tip of your gun was behind the shield and if you destroyed a robot with a single shot, it looked like a bug.

To counter that, I decided the gun has to be almost fully behind the shield. This might be harder because if you just push it forward, the collisions with the gun will make the enemy move back. But if you put the gun above, below or to the side, it will work. It is harder and riskier. And is extremely unlikely to happen by chance.


But Welders are primarily a flying welding machines. And this is what they prefer to do. If they lose the target from their sight, they may want to check out what happened to it but will soon lose interest and get back to welding. And when they turn their back on you, remember that they only have a shield in front of them.
