Open Beta w/ Dev Live Stream as part of Steam Next Fest!

We're a part of Steam Next Fest, where we'll drop our second 1-week open beta! The game will become available on October 1st, for a week until October 7, after which we'll wrap it up and work through user feedback in preparation for the launch at the end of the month. As part of the Fest, Bilal and Ethan will be running a live dev stream on Saturday Oct 2 7-9pm PDT (Sunday Oct 3 1-3pm AEDT). Watch the devs play while they talk about the concepts behind this TD, reveal some tips and strategies, and answer any questions thrown about. --- OLDER BETTER FASTER STRONGER Meanwhile we've been busy toiling away at improving the game. You'll have these new features to look forward to in the second beta: - more visual variety with 3 maps that are played in cycle - new enemy types that are associated with reward choice penalties, adding further strategy, variety and challenge to the mix - new mechanics like stun, dodge and critical strike to wield in trying to defend your experiment - many balance and UX improvements to make for more engaging gameplay - new visual effects, especially associated with powerful Masterpieces that you may find --- WE NEED YOU The first open beta helped highlight many opportunities for improvement, a lot of which we've implemented already (and some of which is still on the TODO list ><). With another round of that, the game will be that much closer to reaching its best and final form. Let us know what you like, what you don't, what you hate and what you wish and we'll do our best to make it come true.
