A roguelike tower defense game with a dash of deckbuilding. Survive fifty waves without losing your core. Choose a reward, update your build, survive the next wave, repeat. Highly replayable through permadeath, randomization and challenging difficulty levels. Just one more wave, just one more run!

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.

I bought this on Steam, I really dig this game. Kicked my *** though cause it's tough (for me) but it's great to see a content update. Awesome stuff.
