Terrorformer TD
Tower Defense Roguelite
Terrorformer TD is a tower defense roguelite where the map erodes and grows as the game progresses — but the player gets terraforming tools to shape it! Every round, fortify your defenses to survive against waves of enemies; then cash in for new towers, upgrades, and other rewards. Gain XP and level up to unlock new abilities and components after each run and try again to make it even further!
The map changes after each round, so you’ll have to adapt your strategy to succeed! Move enemy spawners, raise & lower tiles to redirect enemies into the line of fire and evolve your tactics with the map as it grows. Unlock new procedurally generated maps, each with unique terraforming opportunities and base-building strategies. Grow along with the dynamic battlefield and design the right defenses for each playthrough’s challenges.

Unlocks, upgrades and map erosion are randomized every round, so each playthrough is different! Earn dozens of permanent perks as you play and level up, increasing your survivability on each run. Try your hand at a harder difficulty, or see how long you can last using the Weekly Challenge’s loadout!

Your Home Tower is the heart of your base: customize it each run from the components you’ve unlocked, giving you access to special abilities, upgrades and even weapons! Experiment with different combinations to find the optimal combination for your playstyle and enjoy plenty of options for replayability with over 25 components to unlock.

Counter enemy abilities like Fortify, Warp and Disable Tower with 25 unique towers that earn XP and level up, growing stronger as the game goes on. Mix-and-match defenses to find the best combination for each enemy challenge. Move towers to better firing positions, or raise the tile they’re already on for a firing bonus!
