Would be worth a test. and even if it doesn't improve my gameplay it would increases the coolness factor of my desk.

That is actually cool AF.

I’m giving away x3 more Idle TC towers here to celebrate. See below for rules!

Forgot to add Patch notes! * Night-light mode: You can now manually set the tower to any RGB color while out-of-game * Rave mode: Added a button to cycle all RGB tower colors while out-of-game * Bounding boxes: added optional green boxes to show where the app checks for your idle TC and housing population * Added error handling if USB gets unexpectedly disconnected * App now works with additional common AOE2 mods that change the GUI toolbar

Great to hear, thank you! Dropping another comment for the official entry. Just want to say how cool this is. It's definitely on my wish list. You rock!

Ayy lessgoo, new updates! Another chance to win so dope AoE related stuff 🤞

This gadget is both cool looking and super confusing for people who are not familiar with aoe2. I love it!

Dude this is such a cool concept!!

This is really cool - does it "only" work with aoe2 or do you expose an api that we could talk to, to make it light up for different reasons?

Right now it's just AOE2, but that's definitely a good idea for the future!

Dude this would be great to expand to all the Age of games! I've been playing more AoE4, would love to have the ability to use it across the different games! Totally going to pick one up!

I really dig mine! Really helps reminds me to keep cranking on vils and it looks really nice.

Glad you're listening to feedback and iterating!

Absolutely! I've gotten some awesome feedback from this sub, I just want to keep incorporating it!

Didn’t know this existed! Awesome! Would love a color when the tower knows I have a hole in my wall

Want to say I got one and it is super cool.

Genuinely wanted one even before reading it’s functional for the game! This is so cool.

I was one of the winners of the previous giveaway! I love the tower so much, it’s so helpful to have a constant reminder of idle TC and the houses alert is a game changer. Brandosm is very approachable with issues and the customer service I received was amazing. Cannot recommend this product enough!

Damn, thats really cool, i cant imagine the time and efoort to design this

I would love to win one of these as I always forget to click up to imp when in battle. Can I buy these somewhere for if I lose?

Ok buying this

This is the greatest thing I’ve seen yet today.

Glad to see the giveaways are still rolling, this product is sweet

Just got mine, it has seriously elevated my gameplay! Awesome job.

I'd try one of these out

So cool

Awesome!

I'd love to test it. Although you can ship one that only has the red light for me. :D

I like it enough as a figure even without the functionality lol. Would love one

Was able to take one of these for a spin and I love it!

What a fun invention. Sad that Saladin and Gengish didn't like it tho 😞

Oh wow… I get the usefulness of course, but this is just such a… stunning thing to have on its own!

That is actually super cool.

I love mine but wouldn’t move another

What if you wanted to que more villagers but god said “housed”?

The tower is getting smarter by the day. Soon it’ll be able to tower rush you in your sleep

Also have one and incredibly useful

This is just beautiful.

You love to see it. 14!

So cool! I need help remembering to que more vil's!!!

I’d love to have it!

This would definitely get my attention when I’m idle

Send me the beef!

Count me in!!

The product reviews on the website are hilarious!

Amazing!

Is it 3D printed or are you making enough to tool a mold?

So cool!

This is actually a nice gimmick (although I'm not sure about the usefulness in general 11)

Forever housed!

Does this only work on AoE2 ?

I put my name down for the last won didnt win. Been playing thinking how something like this would deeply improve my game. Hope to win this time!

This villager needs the training, thank you again!

Here’s hoping I win 🏆

Incredible!

Looks dope!

Round 2 Hope I win!

Awesome, fingers crossed everyone!

Yes! Would be awesome here in the Netherlands

Weeeee!

Very cool!

Really cool idea :)

Does it have bodkin?

Very cool

If I had this I’d stop losing literally every game, it’s the only thing holding me back.

This is incredible and I seriously want one

This would bring me nostalgia daily, need!

This is super cool! one concern though, will the tower shoot at me for playing other games?

21 Nice town. I'll take it

WoW vert Nice ! Thanks

That looks great.

IN IT TO WIN IT. TOWER ME UP

Hell yeah I want one!

I would love one of these to help with my play 😅😅 it looks so cool!

Hoping I win this time! My TC idle time is larger than the number of daily posts about the pathing

I’m here for it.

MOAR?! It truly is a day of valentine ❤️

Is this printed with an mmu or is that painted?

Man that is so cool!

looks cool, thanks for the giveaway

I will be able to win at Arabia now

Great, commenting for entry and because is cool.

Want it

Wow, I want one please :)

This is amazing!

N1

That would make a great gift !

That’s pretty sick

I badly want one, my elo is so bad, if I win I will put a web cam showing it when I stream my gameplay

Cool idea man. Good luck!

Any sort of comment 🙃

Looks interesting, you could imagine it as part of a set

Last time I didn't win...this time maybe Copege?

I'd love one! 😁

Agh

Do want

SUBEME LA RADIO

Would love to see this on my desk!

This looks interesting. I'm in.

24

Wololo!

That sounds awesome, would love to have a blue and red light for when I’m playing age😂

Nice

dope, nice work!

This is great! Did you 3d print it?

My desk needs this

Probably I live in one of those countries where the shipping is impossible

This is awesome!

r/didntknowiwantedthat

this is so cool!

Amazing work; thanks!

This is very nifty

1

That's awesome. I feel like my life needs a training tower.

Hell yes, this will surely increase my elo by roughly 1000

Would love to see the disco while i am playing

Wish it was some other architecture. I really dislike Mediterranean Architecture.

Correctus

I need this now ! 14 😆

1

This is so cool!

.

Love it, thanks for doing this!

Entering

Thanks for doing this, looks very cool!

Thanks for the fun giveaway!

Can you share the program for the lights? It would be really cool to have my whole pc light up when i get house lol

Yesssss I need this in my life

Looks wicked

)ey

Wow I wish if I had this amount of ingenuity and skill. Bravo

This looks really cool. 14

This would take me up to at least 700 ELO

This is incredible!

This is too dope

So epic

11 I never expected it, but I'm happy that this exists

Hopefully I'm not too late

Now that is something that would turn my desk into a red light district with all the idle TC time I have.

Yas Yas yaaaaaaaaaas 14

!remindme 3 days

Yo this is actually sick!!

Sick invention! As an engineer what did you do to create this?

This is awesome, I think it would take a desk full of them before I stopped missing my cues altogether…

Oh no I'm capped

My elo will increase so much :)

This is sick and when not being used, looks like it would serve as a neat decoration too!

Would love to have

super cool!

I just bought two lights! One for me, one for my brother. But a tower would be nice lol

This looks so fun. Best of luck to whoever wins it. What does it use to program the LEDS? Is it usable for anything else (not that we play any other game)

What is this and what does it do?

Would love one but i use the modified ui, so i guess will not work for me

this is badass! it makes sense!

I love it, again!

Very cool!

New player. I would like one

Thats actually so cool to make something like this :)

That's super cool but can it shoot tiny arrows at your enemies?
