Release next week


Next week (planing for 22 July) Defendion is leaving Early Access.
All players who bought the game before this date will be granted an unique dress for the captive.

Also we remind you of increasing the price. If you planned to buy the game - it's high time to do so.

Leaving Early Access



This summer Defendion is going to leave Early Access. We are planing to increase the price when it happens so now you have the opportunity to buy the game at lower price.
More details are coming later.

Destroying Update


Meet Destroying Update №18

What's new:



  • we implemented the so much requested feature as removing any single tower right on the battleboard. You need just to try to grab it and the timer with a hint will show up. You will get the money for it based on the tower health and level.

    There is also a new demo table in the training level so you can watch and try to destroy anything



  • now tracking for the grid when you take the tower comes from the tower not the hand - so the choice of the place to put will be more evident and it will coincide with the location of the tower itself
  • now the highlighting of the grid cell will be more visible both on dark and light locations



  • now you can move the table down to adjust the height




Other:



  • fixed bug when you cleared the board the Balista towers were taken away

What's new:



  • New tower - Ballista with all 5 level upgrades It has high firerate and speed rotation but low damage and it shoot only flying enemies (that is bats and the mage). You don't have to buy it as you already have 4 towers on the battleboard. It cannot be destroyed.

    Base damage 0.5, rotation speed - 10. firerate - 1 sec, start upgrade price - 250
