GemCraft - Chasing Shadows, by GameInABottle (one of the early pioneers of the genre), is one of the best tower defense games out there with a truly insane amount of content. If you don't have this one, go grab it - it's a fantastic deal at $2.49.
Buy GemCraft - Chasing Shadows from the Humble Store
The latest installment of the GemCraft series is a unique tower defense game, where, instead of towers, gems are the main weapon to fight endless hordes of monsters. Place your gems in towers, traps, or amplifiers, replace and switch them as you wish. Even combine them to create more powerfu...

Thanks so much for everyone's support and patience. This is a big step along the way to the developing and funding the sequel and will hopefully provide some fresh air to the game in the meantime.

Defender's Quest DX release is imminent
[image] I'll put out a newsletter post about this soon, but basically Defender's Quest DX is getting really close to release. Sorry I haven't checked in on the forums much, I've been trying to keep my head down and just get work done. Some of this will be redundant to regulars, but I anticipate this...

Hey everyone! I apologize that I haven't checked on the page in a while - I'll attempt to be better about that going forward.
A few people have asked about progress on Defender's Quest 2. We certainly are a bit behind (well, a little over a year behind), and this happened for a few reasons. A combination of babies being born (which for a team of 1 full time and 2 part time is a big hit to productivity), a lot of back-end tech work, and a small hop over to completing Defender's Quest 1 HD (http://www.fortressofdoors.com/defenders-quest-hd-demo-initial-public-test/) have pulled us back a bit. That said, the project is still very much moving forward, we have lots of art being made, music written, story arcs constructed, and the engine technology very nearly done.
So thanks for your patience, sorry for the delays, but we hope that the final result will be worth it!
Defender's Quest HD Demo, initial public test
We have a playable demo of Defender's Quest upcoming free HD update.Please give us some feedback so we can make the final product even better.

Thanks everyone who came by and visited us at PAX! And a huge thank you to Kongregate for generously providing us with booth space and some game giveaways for fans!
It was so cool to meet everyone, including some of the crazy players who successfully have the Super Sheep achievement! Your support and excitement are really energizing and the whole thing was an amazing experience. Also, my apologies to those who came by on Sunday, at which point my voice was shot and I sounded like a squeaky guinea pig. :)
