What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Tempest Tower is our first self-published title, and we want to fully embrace an open development style. Involving the community early and making a great game together is something that is very important to us. We hope that you will join us on this journey to build a game that both we and our players love.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Tempest Tower to remain in Early Access for around 9 months. Our current release target is early 2026. Although this is subject to change.”

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

“Our goal for the 1.0 version of Tempest Tower is to add more of everything (levels, worlds, turrets, enemies, challenges, etc.). We plan to add quality of life features and polish alongside additional content and game modes.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“We plan to release Tempest Tower into Early Access in a solid state with all core mechanics present. From there we aim to add new content, modes, and features.
At launch, the game should contain; 1 world theme (that includes multiple levels), a range of enemies, several turrets/buildings, as well as different items and hazards.”

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

“Yes. The price is likely to increase as we add more content to the game. We will always inform the community of price changes in advance.”

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

“We will be collecting feedback via our Discord and the Steam Community Hub. Community feedback and discussions about the game can have a direct impact on the balance, tower/turret designs, and feature priority.”

Roadmap

About This Game

Tempest Tower redefines Tower Defense by combining classic base-building with player-driven movement and combat mechanics. Explore new areas of the map and construct your base during the Build Phase. Battle hordes of Creepers and frantically collect resources during the Action Phase. You can’t be everywhere at once, so build your defenses and pick your battles carefully!

From Bug Blasters that engage enemies at range to trampolines that catapult you across levels, Tempest Tower is packed with crazy contraptions! Personally trigger traps to deal damage to Creepers en masse, and deploy shield bubbles that bounce damage back at foes, there are countless creative tools available to swing the fight in your favour.

Trip Space’s unique flora is your secret weapon! Exploding Bomb-Berries wreak havoc on large clusters of enemies, Bait Bulbs lure Creepers into deadly traps, and Glide Leaves let you soar over vast chasms. Adapt, strategize, and use all the items at your disposal to outwit your enemies.

Forge your path to victory with endless experimentation. Customize your loadout before every level, draft contraptions and upgrades to strengthen your build, strategize with powerful items to create crazy combos. Turn hazardous level elements into tools of destruction and continuously refine your tactics. The possibilities are endless!

Master the intricacies of each level through sharp intuition and relentless trial and error. Strike the perfect balance between building efficient defenses and bolstering your economy to stay ahead. Push your limits with difficulty modifiers or level challenges and claim the ultimate high score!
