2.1.4. Y
2.1.4.1. ~Turn wave fore-sighting on/off~ This button when activated brings down a small banner telling you which enemy is coming down the path next, you don't gain or loose anything if you use this, its just to help you get prepared for the next wave.

2.1.7. Touch screen
2.1.7.1. The touch screen will play an important role in this game, with the touch screen you will able to do all the same things that you could do with the button controls a lot easier but as well as this you can scroll around the battle.
2.1.8. Directional buttons
2.1.8.1. ~Move cursor~ this option is for if the user does not want to use the touch screen, with this they will direct the cursor to what task they want to do so if they wanted to put a guardian onto a tower they would go to the guardian bag, select the guardian they want and press "A" to confirm their placement

5. Future ideas
5.1. In the future if this game catches on i will consider moving it onto other platforms that use the camera option. for example i would use: android phones, tablets, etc - this is because it is all touch screen, they use a camera and with tower defense games being popular this will make a big success in the mobile app industry. PSP Vita - the PSP vita has an external camera that you can attach to the PSP Vita, this will allow the user to use all the functions that the 3Ds offers, this will also put an increase on the profit than can be made
5.1.1. DLC's
5.1.1.1. There will probably be a new DLC every one or two months, these DLC's will consist of a new world or area that contains 30 new levels (15 on each story line) and 10 new guardians and dark ones to catch.
5.1.2. More Platforms
5.1.2.1. If this game makes alot of money then a 3D version will be brought out for the PC version, the game will cost a bit more but from this there could be a few added bonuses thrown in to sweeten the deal. the only problem is having it on the PC may cause problems to catch creatures. One way to get around this problem is that the user can take a picture using a camera and either upload the image into the game or scan an image. another way get around this problem is after the completion of each level you have a chance that it will give you an egg, this egg will be put into the incubator bay to hatch it. The time taken to hatch the egg depends on the level you got it from (so any where from 5 - 30 mins)
5.1.2.1.1. This will then enable the game to go onto the Xbox 360, PS3, Xbox One and PS4
5.1.3. Multiplayer
5.1.3.1. Multiplayer will be brought out, this will open a variety of new things that the user will be able to do. The multiplayer option will offer the user to do something when they are bored of story mode or if they need help. the multiplayer option will offer: Trading options - this will help the user if they are stuck in story mode or get a certain creature that they cant get Battle mode - Guardians vs the Dark ones (A PvP game mode where you battle your guardians against your opponents dark ones (you can chose whether you want to fight with your guardians or dark ones)). Survival - On this game mode you are put into a level that is used in story mode but on this there is an endless amount of waves, aim of the game is to survive!
6. Creatures/Characters
6.1. Gaurdians
6.2. Dark Ones
6.3. Main Character
6.3.1. This will be a character that you can name, and change the way he/she looks, you wont see this character very much apart from in battle mode and when another player looks at your account in multiplayer.
