from my research I have seen that within tower defence games they almost always start from the beginning when you loose, at first our game didn’t follow this mechanic, but now i have changed our game to present the player with a death screen (image shown below created by my peer Tyler) for when they die, this screen then lets the player go back to the main menu, feedback has told me that this has made the game more professional and that it should stay in the game as it makes the game look more developed then it just starting the same level again.
