A funny thing happened on the way to release...
I was deep into balancing the mid-to-late game for Cosmic Raze and...it just wasn't working. It was too hard, and too chaotic. I tried multiple ways to salvage things, tweaking difficulty here, adding new mechanics there, but it was clear if Cosmic Raze was going to be a great game, I needed to make some tough decisions. This is the result, and it's a whole lotta fun!
What if Plants Vs. Zombies had auto-battler style drafting, and roguelike replayability? If you love tower defense games as much as I do, you're going to love what Cosmic Raze has become.
Originally conceived as a spin-off from Gunlocked, Cosmic Raze has since become its own unique thing, but for fans of Gunlocked, there's a lot that you'll recognize as you upgrade your weapons, select unique augmentations, and unlock powerful synergy bonuses.
The controls are simple and intuitive, and the gameplay is perfect for playing on any device, from Desktop, to Laptop, and especially Steam Deck.

Byte Size Initiative
Cosmic Raze is the first game in what I'm calling my "Byte Size Initiative." Over the years, I have made dozens of prototypes for a huge variety of genres, from tower defense, to deckbuilders, to pinball, and more. But when individual games take 1-2 years to develop, it limits how many of these could ever be completed by a solo developer, and as a creative I hate thinking I'll never get to finish many of these ideas!
So now I want to make the best ones into small, but deep, and replayable experiences, for super affordable prices. With the benefit of years of experience, and months already put into developing many of these prototypes, I'll be able to release 4-5 of these games a year, and possibly more!
