Artisan TD (2024)
Join the Artisan’s Guild! In Artisan TD, you'll set out to conquer the Archipelago of Chaos. Build tower mazes to free the souls of magical warriors corrupted by the TITANS. Discover new towers and monsters as you embark on an adventure that will take you through 30 unique maps. Created by a small independent team, handcrafted with passion and precision. Artisan TD features no procedural statistics or computer-generated waves. Use the maps' topography and special tiles to optimize your maze. Building strategies and combat tactics will be regularly updated. Vanquish the 4 primordial TITANS and their forty or so minions with a wide range of actions. You'll also unlock over 10 new towers that you can upgrade. What's more, some maps will also have specific rule sets that you'll need to adapt to. You'll be able to manage a small economy, taking the risk of integrating farms into your mazes. Playable with a controller, this stylized PBR 3D game is optimized for large screens and 4K.
