Tower Defense

The classic formula

Wild Monster wave appears!
Kill monsters with towers, get gold
Buy more towers, kill more monsters
Monster waves become increasingly stronger

We add

Time pressure
Resource gathering
More strategic dimensions
Jetpacks and a humanoid goldfish

We remove

Rivalry over kills and gold in co-op.

Multiple Classes

Converter guns come in different flavors, which translates to multiple playable classes.

Dynamic Pathfinding

Monster paths are dynamic. The AI will try to reach their target on the shortest path.

You can block paths

Or cut holes when harvesting.
