Preface from one of the developers:

Hey guys. My name is Aim and I work at a studio called HuntAr in Arizona, USA.

Our studio, HuntAr, is mostly focused on AR (Augmented Reality) for promotional and advertising purposes, but every now and then we get some time to work on some game development, which we are all very passionate about. We have just released our first game! We've been developing it on and off for a year and a half. We don't have music yet, we have someone working on the soundtrack though.

Thanks for you time and if you choose to check out our game, hope you enjoy it.

Aliens & Turrets AR is a "Tower Defense" style strategy game built around the idea of playing it on your table top in Augmented Reality. It features a save system, so you can resume your game where you left off if you close the app, fluent zooming and panning in Pinned Camera mode, and the ability to switch between Pinned Camera mode and AR Camera mode on the fly.

Website: Aliensandturrets.com


Overview:

You are the last defense stopping a seemingly endless army of alien invaders. Build turrets to defeat the aliens before they reach your home planet and explode on it.

You can build and upgrade turrets by spending resources. You acquire more resources when destroying enemy ships. Building is restricted to the grid, but you can build your turrets in unique formations to lead the enemy ships on the a path of your choosing to deal with the threat.

There are 4 turret types: Gatling, Rail, Laser and Electro Magnetic Pulse. Each have unique properties and different uses. Click on a turret during the build phase (between waves) to see the stats. There are also useful tips displayed during waves. Survive as many waves as you can. The game is over when your home planet's health bar runs out.

Good luck, Commander! You're going to need it.

About Augmented Reality:
This game features optional AR or Augmented Reality gameplay. To use the play mat, download and print it from here: Aliensandturrets.com

Alternatively, you can use the "Create Custom Target" feature in the options screen to create your own play mat on the fly with no printing necessary.

Visual Update:

We have also updated the visual style, opting for a brighter, more colorful neon appearance.

What's Next:

We are working on a gameplay update that will change up the gameplay a bit to keep it from getting repetitive. We hope to diversify gameplay using dynamic level elements. More news on that later this month.
