What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Games with randomly generated content and varied upgrade paths are usually difficult to balance by the dev team alone. We need plenty of community feedback and support to get it just right.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We estimate the game will be in Early Access for 6-12 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Plans for the full version include:
  • A greater variety of outpost upgrades
  • Different main weapon types beyond the default rapid laser
  • New enemy varieties and attack patterns
  • Expanded build possibilities
  • Daily challenges

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current early access version includes enough upgrade types to support a wide variety of strategies, such as focusing upgrades mainly on your default laser, beefing up your defenses through automated laser outposts or chain-reaction electric blasts, or concentrating on your nuclear warhead capabilities.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game's price will be slightly increased on 1.0 launch.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Through heavy interaction with players on Steam and Discord forums.”

About This Game

Utopia Must Fall is a retro-flavored base-defending arcade shooter with rapid progression, procedurally generated attack patterns and enough upgrade variety to potentially qualify for any one of the overused 'rogue' keywords.



  • Easy To Learn: firing happens automatically, just aim your city's turret with the mouse and click for the occasional screen-clearing nuclear warhead.
  • Sizable Upgrade Tree: progress is fast and allows you to pick strategies that suit your playing style... beef up your rail gun into a triple-spread death machine, focus on your shield's recharging ability and auto-defense, deploy and configure an array of auto-aiming laser turrets, or go all out on nuclear weapons research and vaporize everything in the stratosphere.
  • Arcade-Focused: there is no meta-progression (yet?). You unlock new upgrades solely based on your performance in a single gameplay session, so the game is appropriately challenging. Get good to get the good stuff!
  • Laser-Shiny: built with the new V99 engine for a retro-modern classic arcade vector style, that you didn't know you needed yet.
  • Darkly Humorous: the world is ending soon, so you might as well have a laugh about it.
  • Affordable: reasonably priced to help offset the unreasonable cost of everything else.
