"It was supposed to be a simple mission. Get in, defend the colony, and get paid. Instead, I found myself trapped on the planet, caught in a war between mankind and a robot uprising. In the end, I'm not sure who I should be fighting for..."
Axon TD: Uprising
What is Axon TD?
Axon TD is a mazing-centric tower defense where you manipulate the map layout to your advantage. Build towers, make the longest maze, and survive against an onslaught of enemies!
In the Campaign, you'll play as a defense contractor on a routine mission. But when you arrive, your ship is shot down, and you're attacked by a robotic force called the Axons. Your only way off the planet now is to fight. Build towers, secure each location, and push back against the Axons! And perhaps, find out the truth behind the war...
Be free of your restrictions and maze how you please!
Ways to Play
Outside of the Campaign, there's three major modes:
- Quick Play: Pick a level, choose your Tower Loadout, and try to beat it!
- Survival Mode: A longform mode that has you start with minimal towers and space, but throughout the course of the game, you'll receive randomized expansions that you can place where you please, and slowly grow your loadout. Just beating all the waves is a challenge in of itself.
- Online Co-op: These are larger levels designed for 2, 3, or 4 players. Each of you chooses your Tower Loadout before the game begins, and then you're free to build where you please. Coordinate with your team, transfer resources, and try to clear each level!
All three of these modes support Global Leaderboards.
When will it release?
Axon TD will release in Early Access in Q3. By then, it will contain the following:
- 32 Towers, Traps, and Mines
- 8 Castable Abilities
- Chapters 1 & 2 of the Campaign
- Numerous Quick Play Levels
- Survival Mode
- Co-op with up to 4 Players
- Leaderboards for Quick Play, Survival, and Co-op
- And an actual Tutorial
How does this game differ from Element TD 2?
The speed, scale, and style of the game is very different, even from Element TD 2's Mazing Mode. You choose your Towers at the start of the game. You've got unlimited time between each waves. You have a limit to how much you can sell, making each placement really matter. And you can directly manipulate the map to add pathways that didn't exist before.
On some levels, you can even change where the "end" is.
Will there be Workshop Support?
Hypothetically, this would include the ability to create custom maps for Quick Play and Co-op. We don't know when it'll happen, but we're making Workshop Support a top priority for this game.
