Anyone know any tutorial or any code to help?

What do you mean by a TD game? I don't know what it stands for.

Tower Defense

Have you tried searching for similar projects - this is something we see regularly here so there must be a few.

I have nothing that I can think of for you. The only tower defense I've ever seen was Minecraft Tower Defense on YouTube.

First, you would have to make a sprite for each “tower”. Then you would have to make a sprite for the attacking enemies. The enemies would need a cloning script, a movement, and a health script. The towers would need a cloning, targeting, shooting, and placing script. You would also need a projectile that spawns whenever a tower shoots.

In the costume editor the costume appears as it will when pointing right. If you don't follow that rule you'll have problems.

Ok i fixed the costume issue but a problem is how do i make the towers sense the enemy and fire?

Search for ‘nearest clone’ and look at some of the projects that gives you.

i did but alot of the are showcases and dont really help me learn how to make it

I assume you're aware of the blocks

(distance to [ v])
point towards [ v]

So is the problem that you're using clones? If it is you probably do need to be willing to look inside some of thsoe projects to see how they do what they do. @TheLogFather's one is fully commented and the one by @gtoal only has 3 scripts.

It will be hard because most of the times your tower does not face the clones, only the original (which should be hiding.) It will also be hard to make multiple towers. Good luck! I can help once I have enough experience, Right now I do not have the knowledge to do facing and complex point in directioning.

You need to make a enemy list with the sprite name sin this list and make the towers attack only those sprite names, then if you want to be even more complex like the balloon monkey game you can make camouflaged enemy’s that only specific towers can attack

when green flag clicked
add [Enemy name’s] to [enemy list v]
when green flag clicked
forever
if <“name” = (enemy)> then 

  “Attack”

else
“Don’t attack”
end
end
