A downloadable game

They Come At Night is a sci-fi strategic platformer + tower defense game centered around a day & night cycle. 


How will the game structured?

Daytime: During the day you will be free to dig, gather resources, buy & place towers, and explore. 

Nighttime: When night comes you will no longer be able to dig, and must defend against waves of monsters until morning comes.. Killing monsters gives you some form of currency you will be able to use to upgrade your current towers or buy new ones.

Note: There is a LOT I want to expand on to increase the strategic aspects of the game, but this is the core game loop you can expect.


Will there be a story or anything?

YES! The game will have a story/mystery for the player to uncover as they dig and explore. There is a lot I want to do here, but I'm focusing on building out the tower defense mechanics right now.


What is on the roadmap?
