Castillon News

[p][/p][p]Thank you to Steam for organizing an official Tower Defense Fest!
This is a wonderful, highly variable genre that easily feels worthy of dedicated celebration![/p][p]2 Left Thumbs has 5 total games taking part, 4 of which are upcoming.
Please check out this selection of other TD releases, as well as the full event for more great options![/p][p][/p][h2]17.waves[/h2][p]An online multiplayer TD, made for 1-4 players. It plays like PixelJunk Monsters + Overcooked, requiring players to run around, load ammo, keep towers maintained, and work as a team to overcome waves of alien bugs. You can play for yourself now (solo or with friends) in the public demo![/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][h2]Cardaver[/h2][p]Inspired by the lane-based tower defense gameplay of Plants vs Zombies, Cardaver puts a deckbuilding roguelike twist on the formula. This highly replayable strategy game should be equally enjoyable to both those who are and are not familiar with the PvZ inspirations.[/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][h2]Paper Planet[/h2][p]The only released games on this list, Paper Planet is a chaotic roguelike with scaling enemies and attacks that will often fill the screen. See what sort of insane combos you can achieve! And if you wish, you can bring in up to 3 friends for some local co-op carnage![/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][h2]Storm The House Collection[/h2][p]Storm The House was a trilogy of popular, fixed-position defense games of the Flash era. One of the pioneers of this subset of Tower Defense games, Storm The House is a simple game with an addictive gameplay loop, remastered with modern conveniences.[/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p]

[h2]Improved Visuals[/h2][p]An immediate priority of picking development back up, was re-evaluating the current visual style. There was an agreement that the previous version of the game didn't have the visual flair needed to help it pop. It was a little too flat, and not very "magical". Hopefully with the addition of better lighting, vfx, and some enhanced designs - the game will start to feel more like powerful wizards and mystical creatures doing battle![/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][h2]Playtest[/h2][p]After a development hiatus to focus on some freelance work, we are back working on Castillon, and are looking for more feedback! As a part of this, we are running an updated Playtest. This includes the new visual enhancements![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Feedback?[/h2][p]We have a number of ways for you to provide feedback. Please use whichever feels most compatible with your own preferences. We greatly appreciate you taking the time to do so, and are eager to improve the game based on your response![/p][p][/p][p]Steam Discussions - Easy to access, and perfect if you just want to brain-dump your thoughts[/p][p]Google Form - Helps guide you with simple questions.

If we could ask on more favour of you, it'd be that you please add Castillon to your Wishlist![/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]We hope everyone has a great weekend! And we can't wait to read through all your feedback. Cheers![/p]
