Spells were added fairly late in the development process, and while they can be pivotal in terms of gameplay impact, they're at this point still the most under-developed feature in Tower Escape. Today's update is the first step in a larger plan to make them a bigger part of the game, with much more to come shortly as we begin to rebalance The Damned's ablities. We're adding 3 new spells: Slow T…
Hello again, a fresh new round of updates today, mostly around our beloved minerals. The 5-star gems are getting a new sprite that's a little less cumbersome on the card, and we're adding 7 new gems with special abilities. We've also tweaked some of the existing gems, and added "chip" versions of the tradeoff gems (gems with a negative as well as positive effect). The chips have the same malus…
Happy pride month! A few updates for you today: · Gnomy has a new trans pride hat (this is a permanent change and is canon) · Shroomy has a new rainbow cap (temporary change for the month of June) · Fixes some missing labels for the Exiled · Fixes the incorrect number of sockets for Foxy, Bully, and Yellow Cultist
As the Necromancer plotted escape from The Tower, trouble was brewing far away in the Elven Kingdom. A clan of elves lived in exile and were persecuted because they worshipped the night and possessed powerful psychic abilities. After centuries of mistreatment, they took advantage of the elves' distraction in the war against The Enchanted, Damned, Undead, and Corrupted, to stage their own rebell…
Fixes an issue where the "Hero's Helm" relic was causing its bonuses to show on minions in the store. Also re-enabling steam cloud sync, as the save/load crashes seem to be fixed now.
Hello Necromancers! Hold onto your cowls, because this is a big one! If you don't have time to read, feel free to skip to the sneak preview at the bottom. First a note: saves created with previous versions will not be recognized in v1.10. If you want to finish a 1.9 save before updating, you can access the old version in the betas labeled "v1.9". It's been about 2 weeks since release, and the f…
Changes: · Fixes locked store items remaining between games · Fixes a UI issue on the map screen when playing multiple games in one session · The Play Again button now returns you to the game settings page so you can switch clans or other settings · The win and loss screens properly return to the summary when playing multiple games in one session, instead of staying on the tab you left at in th…
First the good stuff: this update includes an overhaul of the win/lose screens, as well as enhancements to the Book of Names and other places where unlocks are shown, to be much more clear about unlock progress and what is required to unlock cards in the future. My hope is that this will make the card unlocking system much clearer and not feel just like a mystery box. For the less good, we're a…
Many apologies to German speakers who encountered an unfortunate mistranslation in the "Extra Chest" level bonus tooltip! And a huge thanks to Redgomor in the Final Screw discord for catching the mistake, and Tobi for additional corrections (and a huge apology to Redgomor for mis-attributing this initially)! Additional changes as follows: · Fix grub sprite position · German language fixes · Add…
Thank you everyone for an absolutely amazing launch! It makes me so happy to see everyone playing and all the positive reviews! While I'm thrilled there there are few complaints, I've noticed the most common being that you like the game and want even more! As I have mentioned before, I plan to continue to support and add new content to the game, and I wanted to offer a small preview of what the…
Fixes an issue where certain steam achievements were not being given. If you missed any game win achievements, they should be granted retroactively the next time you run the game.
Hello everyone! Last April, I signed up for a tiny game jam called “TigerJ(am) #3” with the theme of “Everything is Backwards.” Me and my friend Mike were brainstorming ideas and came up with the concept of a backwards tower defense, where you have to play as the bad guys, and instead of going up in levels, you start at the top and go down. It was silly and ugly (another restriction of the jam…
