Tower Bang is a fast-paced game of reflexes and precision. Players must tap at just the right moment to collapse color-coded towers, triggering satisfying chain reactions. Designed for Mintablo, it merges sleek visuals with addictive mechanics to deliver bite-sized excitement.
Part of the same series as Hot Bombs, Tower Bang expands Mintablo's arcade experience with a new kind of challenge — this time focusing on rhythm, timing, and physical motion.
Objective
Create a game that captures attention in seconds and keeps players coming back. We focused on:
Visceral feedback with every tap
Modular level design for infinite replayability
A visual identity that feels both dynamic and controlled
Design Direction
We wanted Tower Bang to feel explosive yet precise. The design pillars were:
Impact & Momentum: Every tower fall needed to feel powerful. We used physics-based animations and screen shake to create a sense of controlled chaos.
Color & Contrast: Each tower segment features distinct colors for clarity. Backgrounds remain muted to make the action pop.
Simplicity & Focus: A clean, grid-based interface allows players to concentrate on rhythm and timing without distraction.
Challenges
One of the biggest design hurdles was balancing minimalism with drama. Our solutions included:
Amplifying motion with simple assets
Using audio cues to guide gameplay
Animating tower segments to collapse in unique, playful ways
