Hello, warriors of Orcdom!
Our first beta playtest has officially come to a close! A huge thank you to everyone who participated, shared feedback, and helped shape the game. Your insights are invaluable to us!

🛠 What We Learned & What's Next 🛠
One of the key takeaways from this test is that many players felt the level differences weren’t distinct enough. Some suggested adding a terrain system to make each stage more unique. While we experimented with this during development, the compact map size limited the impact of terrain design.
Instead, we’re exploring special modes for each map to shake up the gameplay! For example, a "Night Raid" mode where players can’t build collectors, but the main crystal generates resources at a much higher rate, and enemies attack more frequently. We hope this will bring exciting new challenges!
For those craving an extra challenge, we’re also working on a Challenge Mode, which will introduce additional rules on top of existing levels—perfect for hardcore tower defense fans looking for a test of strategy and skill.
Beyond that, expect art enhancements, balance adjustments, and more refinements to improve your experience!
