Desktop Defender Launches in 24 hours!

[p]Hi everyone![/p][p]3 weeks ago I launched Desktop Defender's demo, and I cannot thank you all enough for how huge this has all been.[/p]
  • [p]We went from 3 concurrent players to 1,548[/p]
  • [p]Reached the top 3 most played demos on Steam[/p]
  • [p]Got a special feature from Steam because of how much you all played the demo[/p]
  • [p]Went from 200 wishlists, to almost 50,000[/p]
[p]This community is incredible, and I can't wait to continue talking to you all and making the game the best it can be together! We have a super active Discord server too, where people are pushing waves, have set up a wiki, and even modded the game! Make sure to join it if you want to see the newest of what's up with Desktop Defender.[/p][p][/p][p]The game is coming out at 7PM GMT+1, which in other time zones is:[/p]
  • [p]10AM PST[/p]
  • [p]11AM MST[/p]
  • [p]12PM CST[/p]
  • [p]1PM EST[/p]
  • [p]6PM GMT[/p]
  • [p]8PM EET[/p]
  • [p]9PM MSK[/p]
  • [p]10PM GST[/p]
  • [p]2AM CST[/p]
  • [p]3AM JST[/p]
  • [p]5AM AEDT[/p]
[p]Furthermore, unfortunately the demo will be delisted a few hours before the game comes out, but the full game is so full that I think you will all enjoy it! Here are some key figures:[/p]
  • [p]150 levels[/p]
  • [p]97 loot items[/p]
  • [p]21 weapons[/p]
  • [p]18 loot slots[/p]
  • [p]80 achievements[/p]
  • [p]Infinite waves[/p]
  • [p]New infinite upgrade progression[/p]
  • [p]New rebirth system at level 150[/p]
[p][/p][p][/p][p]I'm not entirely sure how long it will take to beat the game for the average player, but I estimate about 1,000 to 2,000 hours, with the option to play infinitely through rebirths and wave pushing so I hope you all enjoy it![/p][p]The game will cost $4.99 USD, have a 15% launch discount, as well as have generous regional pricing for countries where Steam's automatic pricing doesn't feel as fair.[/p][p]Anyways, that's for this update, and thank you all so much for enjoying the game so far! This is just the beginning of a long road ahead for Desktop Defender, and I hope you all join along for the ride :)[/p][p]- Conrad, Lead Developer[/p]

ALMOST AT 1000 CONCURRENT PLAYERS!

[p]Hi everyone![/p][p]Since the demo launched on Monday, EVERYTHING has been insane. On our official Discord, I announced how if we hit over 400 concurrent players, that I'd increase the amount of levels in the demo even more... Well... [/p][p]Look for yourself...[/p][p][/p][p]When the demo first launched, it started with just 1 player for a few hours, and it's now grown into this craziness. I can't believe it, thank you all so much for the support and for enjoying the game![/p][p]Anyways, the demo now has 30 levels instead of the original 10 at launch, and those levels include extra waves, extra weapons, and extra loot! But there's ONE MORE THING... If we manage to hit 1000 concurrent players (you can track that here), then there will be a special surprise...[/p][p]If you want to join the super lively Discord and be a part of the hype, click here! Thank you all so much for making this possible, the reception has been incredible![/p][p]Talk to you all soon.[/p][p]- Conrad, Lead Developer[/p]

WE ADDED EVEN MORE CONTENT TO THE DEMO!

[p]Hi everyone![/p][p]These past 2 days have been absolutely wild! On our official Discord, I announced how if we hit over 100 concurrent players, that I'd add 10 extra levels... Well we hit that super fast, and I set another goal of 200 players... [/p][p]Well, guess that was fast too...[/p][p][/p][p]When the demo first launched, it started with just 1 player for a few hours, and it's now grown into this monstrosity. I can't believe it, thank you all so much for the support and for enjoying the game![/p][p]Anyways, the demo now has 25 levels instead of the original 10 at launch, and those levels include extra waves, extra weapons, and extra loot! But there's more... If we manage to hit 400 concurrent players (you can track that here), then I'll add EVEN MORE levels to the demo (up to level 30 to be exact)![/p][p]If you want to join the super lively Discord and be a part of the hype, click here! Thank you all so much for making this possible, the reception has been incredible![/p][p]Talk to you all soon.[/p][p]- Conrad, Lead Developer[/p]

I JUST DOUBLED THE DEMO CONTENT + How to add even more!

[p]Hi everyone![/p][p]I'm happy to announce that I have just DOUBLED the demo's content! On our official Discord I announced how if we hit over 100 concurrent players, that I'd add 10 extra levels to the already existing 10 levels in the game.[/p][p]Well... Look at the graph below...[/p][p][/p][p]I'm not gonna lie, I didn't think we'd hit this in Next Fest LET ALONE 2 HOURS AFTER I ANNOUNCED IT!?[/p][p]So, the demo now has 20 levels, instead of just 10! Those levels also include the extra waves and extra weapons! But there's more... If we manage to hit 200 concurrent players (you can track that here), then I'll add 5 more levels to the demo!
