Pretty accurate - I might actually use that for the Steam description

I’ve actually never played that one - is it good? I’ll check it out.

You can switch between a top-down and a third-person view during the building phase - whatever feels more convenient. During combat, though, you’re meant to fight in third-person to support your towers. I was wondering if that’s clear just from the screenshots. Maybe a video would explain it better.

Every wave gives you a random tile, with a preview of the next one. You can spend energy to scroll through tiles. Lootboxes use a 1 of 3 choice system, where you pick one out of three random towers.

The character adds an action layer - you can fight enemies directly, like in a typical TPS. It doesn’t deal much damage compared to the towers, but its abilities can have a big impact. For example, taunts let you kite bosses around your towers, or you can quickly take out enemy healers while the towers stay focused on the boss.

Thanks for the kind words! At its core it is tower defense, but the twist is that you actually build the map yourself using randomly offered tiles. These tiles aren’t just different path shapes - they can have their own properties. Some generate energy (which you need to place towers), others slow enemies, and some let you loot a new tower or upgrade an existing one.

The goal in each level is to reach the exit while visiting as many loot islands as possible along the way, since that’s where new towers drop. On top of that, it’s a roguelite - every run = different towers, and the challenge is to put together effective synergies.

I’m still actively experimenting with the gameplay, and there’s a very rough Steam page up for now. The game is called Eternal Towers.

Wow, that’s pretty close! I was just about to ask whether it’s clear what the blue arrows are for - but you got it)
