- The eternal harvester of galactic empires has returned! Witness massive waves of Creeper flood across the 3D terrain in this real time strategy game where the enemy is a fluid. Build out your economic base with energy and mined wares. Assemble your forces and struggle against the creeper on all fronts as it floods and fills the map. Take the high ground with your forces to avoid the creeper as waves crash around your base. Increase your lines of sight and range on high ground, but beware the aerial units. And, if you last long enough, launch orbital weapons and call down devastating strikes on the enemy.
Creeper World 4 continues the iconic and well received Creeper World RTS franchise, expanding into a new dimension of strategic possibilities and threats. The galaxy once again finds itself culled and utterly in ruins. Guide a scientist and cohorts through the ultimate test of survival and restore hope to the galaxy... one world at a time. Play small maps casually, while pausing and issuing orders. Alternately, play massive maps in real-time with full save support. The choice is yours. Play the story missions, the community crafted missions, or use the built in mission generator for infinite possibilities. Use the map editor to make your own maps for fun and sharing. Create custom units, or even custom game play modes, and share those as well.

"That took me half an hour"
*Laugh*
15-20 minutes for 1 stage are fast for these Creeper World mission. Not to mention what people would do with it when Map Editor opened for some time. In CW 3 you can also play as the Creeper in some custom map
don't forget the pipe puzzle maps
I managed to get “Before time” done in 40 minutes, and the MK V mission done in around 25 minutes! Guess I’m a better player than I thought... I managed to get “Day of infamy” done in only 23 minutes!
Ahh I love these series. I’ve burnt hours on these games. Sure might not look the best but damn it’s addictive
Same! I bought CW3 before I even knew that Steam was a thing. Sadly that means I can’t get it going on my current computer since I got rid of the old one a while back. I remember playing CW2 and 1 on Kongregate when I was supposed to be doing schoolwork, but I still managed to get straight A and B grades. Of course, I bought Particle Fleet, but compared to the CW series, it’s not my favorite.
I like how you didn't notice the white anti-creeper liquid covering a quarter of the stage when you activated that temple. Seems like a useful thing. : )
your doing fantastic compared to other beginners.
You know that having more energy is a good thing and having a ton is a great thing.
You also remembered you can move your turrets.
and yes, many beginners forget both these things.
#1 Tip. Don't get tunnel vision and pause once and a while.
#2 tip, at least for this version of the game: Mortars are amazing!
Were they always like that? I remember them being somewhat underwhelming in CW3. It might just be that I can visualize how much damage they do, but they feel more powerful. I guess that with the very restrictive firing limits, even on things above the Creeper (another feature I don’t remember from CW3), they just feel better due to their being able to shoot anything when blasters can’t. One thing I’m missing so far is power zones...
#3 tip: _You_ _must_ _construct_ _additional_ _pylons._
@@FooFoo4230 I play CW3 now, and mortars have the same feeling of power. Cannons are good for low amounts of creep, mortars - for large ones.
@@FooFoo4230 Mortars are amazing in CW3, I usually had one or two blasters to keep the Creeper at bay and then move forward with aggressive mortar movement. Pretty cheap advancement and fast.
CW 3 was my first exposure to CW, and tunnel vision is frustrating in early hours. took me couple of defeat until I learn to constantly reassess the situation
OK, thanks for telling me! I always used way fewer mortars than I should, I guess... explains why I had such a hard time on that one timed mission.
I remember playing the originals on kongregate. Good times
You still can
They are not the actual full games though, just some levels (and not the actual story ones) for free.
"Let's skip the tutorial"
5 minutes later
"I don't know how to get power"
"I don't know how to play this game."
@IdleBigots To be fair, time doesn't matter because the game can be paused and is paused during story segments.
@@Fragenzeichenplatte also either way when someone talks the time stops XD
@@BIueSpectre haha good point
There is also minimal amount of dialogue until you reach the last 4 worlds, not sure what the first reply is on about, and that is coming from someone that doesn't like reading but any lower and it would just be a map pack loosely tied together.
The nice part is it is very hard to lose for the first half, but long periods of stalemate is possible.
One thing to remember about Creeper World is that it naturally includes the ability to weaken your enemy in one place by attacking somewhere else. Keep an eye out for those someplace elses where you can easily attack the creeper to help drain it down. For instance, on the Farsite map I would have quickly put down blasters around the base and then ringed pretty much that entire island with them.
Another good habit is to keep your eye out for opportunities that open up on the fronts other than your main thrust, (especially true if you try CW3, if you spot an unguarded emitter/etc you might be able to add a Super Bertha to your force).
Tip: Those pyramids produce Anti-Creeper when supplied with Liftic. Creeper and Anti-Creeper cancel each other out, and Anti-Creeper does not hurt you. This makes Anti-Creeper excellent for protecting your buildings.
no they do when you get blueite and put it through a factory and then supply them with the anticreep from that
@@avaavalon2467 if youve been following the dev hes repurposed it all you need to do is supplie that temple with liftic our create your own factory of the stuff with bluite
@@wolfdeathnogames5314 oh thank you I haven't been eating the dev so I didn't know I've been playing and been watching brnk play so I based it off that sorry
@@avaavalon2467 They both produce anticreep so technically you didn't say anything wrong.
I’ve always liked seeing the creeper not as a sludge, but as a micro-organism. Trillions upon trillions of destructive micro-organisms all acting as one hive mind.
ayyyy nice to see Creeper World catching some of my fave youtubers' attention!
ohh man how far down the creeper world rabbit hole do you think he will go?
I can see that wander was a little bit lost here, and without the chat he would have had a bad time figuring out the "simple" things about the game.
I've seen other youtubers play this demo and a lot of them (the ones that had never played CW) couldnt figure out the same things wander had dificulty with.
I really think that for the final game the tutorial needs to be improved and not put relevant info (like collectors = energy production) only in the lore.
Didn't they call them "soylent fields" in the lore? That seems pretty self explanatory to me.
It assumed you played the previous 3 and those did have tutorials on capping emitters
I legit got youtube recommended and subsequently watched 6+ hours of creeper world the other night it must've been your fault.
I’ve seen the update logs this is a good game
Yup
I enjoy this because when I was a kid trying to play creeper world 1 through three I never knew what to do lol so I'm glad I'm watching someone who knows what there doing
Liking pretty graphics doesn't make you an art snob, it makes you a graphics snob. Thumbs up for the video!
As a fan of the original games, this makes me happy.
You should play Creeper World 3 though. It gets a bit time consuming the further you get into it XD
It's so cool to see the initial discovery of this game. That's one thing I wish I could go back to, is being brand new and figuring things out again. Definitely going to like this and the next playthrough!
So excited to see this play through! I’ve played this since numero uno-good choice man!
4:35 WTF? That looked exactly like Perimeter!
For strategies you'll want to focus on only building one tower at a time so that you have good use of energy to time to get it back to create more energy and you'll also want to put up big towers relatively soon after you get all of the little towers up and running that's just for energy
Also don't forget to do most of the game pause when you move your units around and planning units and when placing units
OOOOOOOO I've been following the dev log! Love the look and feel of this game
oh goodie i cant wait to see you do the later levels who likes tsunamis
Caligula would love this game.
ive been waiting for this game for forever
soylent fields... oh my
soylent green fields
game went there early this time
Once you're done with this game, you should give creeper world 3 a shot. It is a bit faster paced than this game has been so far. It has some great levels and some fun tools you can use. I've spent quite a while in the final level taking full control of the map, centre included. Any details would result in spoilers but lets just say that even if part of my base was flooded by creeper, I had over 20 tiles exactly like it that were pretty much self-sufficient.
Just finished recording a full series on CW3 last night.
@@wanderbots Well, that is a good sign. That at least means you liked the game enough to finish it. It is a pretty unique and interesting concept. Especially if you're someone who likes rts games but hates the pvp aspect that most of them have.
I also recommend taking a look at some of the custom maps. "Sleeper" and "You are the creeper" maps are especially interesting.
Wanderbots I can’t find it have you uploaded it yet?
@@wojtek9675 it'll start going up on wednesday
Wanderbots wow I didn’t expect you to reply at 1:30 am but thanks for letting me know!
I have yet to try creeper world, but have played particle fleet. It would be intresting to try this one.
yay for creeper world! all of them!
i hope you will play it soon
there is also 'Particle Fleet Emergence' which has a similar concept just with particle, constructs and spaceships. rather hard at times but still quite fun, especially with all those custom maps.
Holy shit this game is amazing.
Also, how comes Wander never comments on the fact that he unleached *White Creep?!*
0:49 No, no, no. You hit the alarm at 6 am, you didn't get down stairs until 6:35. Your lazy ass spent half an hour in bed after your alarm went off.
I'm pretty sure Jovin drive comes from Jovian, as in Jupiter, so it would be pronounced like Joe.
That said, this is a good game and I'm glad your playing it. I'd seen another streamer play through this level already, but they ignored the temple, so seeing you take it was interesting. I don't know if you noticed, but it started using lyftic to produce anti-creep (that white stuff), which was unexpected. That might also, technically, mean you could render the mission unwinnable, but it would take a bit of work.
woot glad you picked it up.. you should play cw3
aw yeah
creeper time
I’d like to note that all the units are going to get 3D non voxel models for the full release
yes more creeper world, or maybe its space ship spinoff!
Creeper awwwww man
You are first person to frustrate me with power surplus, like really, it was a pain to watch you have power and not use it. But still would love to see more creeper world, either 3 or 4 on this channel, if only to see you improve.
To everyone putting strategy tips here, please try to remember that he’s played all of the demo for 4, and he’s even played the entire game of 3. Yes, that includes the final mission. I envy him, because I don’t know how to get my game key off of the Mac it’s on and converted into a Steam key. Can someone help me out with the file location?
So by context this seems like a prequel
the pyramid looks like it spread anti-creeper
i just realized your pfp is of those aliens from lilo and stitch
I never move anything. There's no penalty for just building new stuff, and I think it looks cooler to have a map just full of mortars.
Hmm... This doesn't really follow the storyline, but it must take place much further into the future, after a long break from the creeper, aka the Loki... Go play the other creeper worlds and you'll understand.
should build more towers as they give you power
never mind i missed the part were he found out
I believe you can unlock a secret in the tutorial by dying
holy crap, i got here first. I hope you enjoy this game series it is AMAZING
Explosives
You should play cw3 - it's so much fun
guess i spoke too soon!
Aren’t pylons just relays but they produce energy does someone if I’m right
Pylons are just fast relays. They don’t do anything else
Can you do more hades please
What happened to scrap mechanic creative???
Pff art. Who needs art. You got gameplay m8
This is one of those games that I believe should not of made a jump into 3d.
Really? I personally think it’s pretty great
seeing the vids the devs has been putting out it looks neat
Seeing as the dev was gushing about how awesome he thought making the jump to 3D was and how he released alpha footage of the 3D liquid mechanics all the way back when I bought CW3 I'm pretty sure he knows what he's doing.
I mean, most bad 3D games come from people not knowing what they're doing and feeling forced to adopt 3D, this guy seems to have downed a gallon of 3D kool-aid already.
Been waiting for this awhile.
Theres kinda no point playing creeper world 1, creeper world 3 is better in every way. Creeper world 2 is a side scrolling game, so quite a bit of a different experience. It's all about depth rather than expanding across the landscape.
Kinda like the difference between legend of Zelda and adventures of link, to be honest.
So far, not reqmally digging the 3d 'upgrade'.it axtually seems harder to tell where the edge of the creep is. Makes it hard to know where you can build.
Luckily, there’s a top view for us CW3 veterans! (And everyone else who’s gotten frustrated with not placing things in the right place)
I agree on CW1, 3 is much better. Of all the Creeper World games, I must say I prefer 2 because of the unique concept. I was kind of hoping that 4 would be like 2.
@@FooFoo4230 I didn't really like 2. It was interesting and I played it all the way through, but I was definitely glad 3 was more like 1.
I started them demo, didn't see the top down view (though I had an issue with my graphics card overheating because the fan stopped working - yikes! I fixed it though.)
I only got 1 level farther than this video did. I have to say - I like the concept of the underground pipes. That's something that couldn't really exist in CW3
This game is such a disappointment imo, feels like it's going to be more "creep forwards with snipers" than "actually fight the Creeper, the reason you bought this game".
Personally I recommend playing them in order, Creeper World 1 is still a solid game even though it's 11 years old...
For beginners creeper world 3 is much better then this demo.
This demo has a weird interface.
