What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Alien Creation – A Personal Challenge

As a passionate gamer, I set myself an ambitious challenge: to develop a video game entirely on my own, from start to finish. With the help of numerous tutorials and AI support, I immersed myself in this adventure and found immense joy in the process. Although the game is still far from complete, it already offers the first levels and a solid foundation for its gameplay. I am committed to seeing the game through to completion and ensuring regular updates. My goal is to deliver an immersive, entertaining, and rewarding experience, while adding a dose of stimulating challenge. I would be happy to develop it with your feedback.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The duration of the early access phase is still difficult for me to determine, as I am new to game development. However, I will do my best to expand the game quickly and work toward a full release. My goal is to exit early access once all levels and the ending have been fully developed. At this point, I've developed all the main features and half of the levels. Maintaining the same work pace, I plan to release version 1.0 in about six months, or early 2026.”

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

“I plan for the final version to have more troops to recruit, more levels including bosses, as well as equipment for the hero to collect.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Early Access currently offers:

- 14 troops to recruit to strengthen your army

- 20 levels, including 2 with formidable bosses

- All combat mechanics fully implemented

- Around 40 functional types

- 150 pieces of equipment to collect from chests

- A merchant system allowing you to buy and sell equipment, types, and troops

- A detailed game wiki

- An options menu to customize the experience”

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

“I plan to gradually increase the price as new content and features are added, while ensuring that it remains affordable and reasonable.”

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

“As this is my first game, I'm still discovering all the possible implications. However, I will enthusiastically adapt to the community's requests in order to continually evolve and improve the game. A Discord server will be available to serve as the primary channel for communication with our community. We invite you to join it to connect, share suggestions, and stay up-to-date on the latest news. Additionally, an Instagram account will allow you to discover as much information and visuals as possible about the game.”

About This Game

⚔️ The tactical roguelite that doesn’t forgive mistakes

Welcome to The Tower of Shadows, a brutal turn‑based roguelite where every floor rewrites the rules of combat. Think you know tactical RPGs? The Tower is here to prove you wrong.

🏰 A living tower that wants you dead

Every ascent is a new fight against a structure that constantly shifts:

  • Changing rules

  • Unpredictable curses

  • Adaptive enemies

  • Unique rewards

No two runs are the same. No mistake goes unnoticed.

🧠 Tactical combat that demands real decisions

There’s no button‑mashing here. Every action is a gamble. Every tile matters. Your heroes survive only if you master:

  • Class synergies

  • Smart positioning

  • Tight resource management

  • Enemy weaknesses

If you fall, it’s because the Tower outplayed you — not because of luck.

🧙 Build a team capable of surviving the impossible

Recruit, upgrade, combine. Each hero brings a unique playstyle, and the strongest teams are often the ones you never expected to work.

💀 Death isn’t the end — it’s your teacher

You will die. A lot. But every defeat unlocks new options, new strategies, and new ways to break the Tower.

🌑 A dark fantasy atmosphere that pulls you in

Explore a cursed tower consumed by Shadows. Face its guardians, uncover its secrets… And survive long enough to learn what waits at the top.

🛠️ Early Access: you’re not just a player — you’re a builder

Your feedback directly shapes:

  • Balancing

  • New heroes

  • Additional floors

  • Advanced mechanics

Join the first explorers of the Tower. Help forge a tactical roguelite built for players who want a real challenge.
