Game Overview
Get them home! We need you to defend Billy and his crew as they make their way to the extraction zone at Drop City #237. The transport ship, Lockwood, was shot down and crash-landed on the desert planet Kernas! You’ve been authorized to use the defense system to escort them safely. Protect them from giant bugs, malfunctioning droids, and more…
Their journey to safety will be depicted through a hand-drawn comic. Make sure the enemy doesn’t breach the defensive gates, or Billy won’t make it home!
5 Base towers, each with its own function. Choose to upgrade them into one of two branching specializations, totaling 15 unique towers with their own special abilities. These can be upgraded even further! Will you burn your enemies with the flamethrower, or perhaps snipe them from afar? The choice is yours! You won’t have to rely solely on your towers—you can also use powerful abilities to get you out of tight spots!
48 unlockable skills to acquire! Earn medals based on your performance in missions and use those to unlock them. Get new active abilities or improve the ones you have already. Or maybe you prefer to upgrade the abilities of your towers? Notice that what you unlocked isn’t working for you? Reset your skills and redistribute them as you see fit!
Your towers are powerful, but so are your enemies! They have their own skills to help them break through your defenses. Place your towers wisely to counter their special abilities.
- 16 Playable levels: Traverse 4 different Biomes and lay waste to your enemies!
- 5 Base towers: Each upgradeable from MK I to MK III then you specialize them!
- 10 Tower Specializations: Choose between 2 specializations for each of your base towers. Each with their own special upgradeable skills.
- 3 Difficulties: Determine your own difficulty from easy to hard. How fast can you handle the waves?
- 2 Game modes: Regular and Hardcore. Is the normal game too easy? Try Hardcore, where you play through the game with just one hit point, earn only 1 medal per completed level, face constant hard difficulty, and have no skill resets. Good luck!
- 4 Active abilities: Support your towers with your own abilities, which can be upgraded through unlockable skills!
- 48 Unlockable skills: Earn medals by completing levels and use these to unlock powerful upgrades for abilities and towers!
- Database: A collection of data about encountered enemies. To learn about your enemies or specific aspects of a tower.
- Over 30 Enemies: Each with their own abilities and behavior.
- 3 Boss fights: Big, mean and not easily killed.
- Comic: 12 hand-drawn pages telling the story of Billy and his crew, all stored in a rewatchable database.
- Customization: Choose from several different colors for your UI. Because not everyone likes the same colors.
