As the first of 4 planned major updates to our demo, this one introduces terrain height & island size as new strategical elements:

Place your towers on elevations to buff their range and other stats.

Islands have building capacities! Expand to new islands or pick the right runestones to increase the number of build plots you can fill with buildings and towers.

Discover new status effects through tower upgrades, like flaming bolts that cause damage over time.

• Height layers: Strategic spots for your towers, potential obstacles for your economy buildings. Plan carefully to profit off of powerful buffs!

• New buffs & status effects: Burn & Stun enemies, and add Regeneration to your Hero & the Spiridun itself!

• New Runestones and Tower Upgrades: Slowly but surely replacing some of those placeholder upgrades with more mechanically diverse effects

• Build limit system: With each island being able to support only a limited number of buildings, expansion is more important than ever!

We read every review and every comment on our discord and do our very best to take your feedback into account. Thanks for helping us making our game better!
