Gameplay and Features

• Tower Defense Mechanics: Players strategically place towers to shoot monsters before they reach defenses. The core loop involves resource collection after defeating waves, followed by strategic tower upgrades and placement to overcome progressively harder challenges.
• Gothic Pixel Art Style: The game features detailed, stylized pixel art with dark color palettes and atmospheric lighting that brings dungeon adventures to life with eerie monsters and magical towers.
• Campaign & Endless Modes: The single-player campaign offers 50+ unique dungeon levels with branching paths and boss battles, while the endless mode provides infinite replayability with randomly generated waves.
• Touch/Click Interface: Players control the game intuitively with touch gestures (mobile) or mouse clicks (PC), with simple tap-and-hold targeting and easy-to-access upgrade menus.
• Progression System: Players earn currency by defeating monsters, which can be used to upgrade towers with special abilities, unlock new tower types, and customize character equipment from an in-game shop.
• Co-op System: Dungeon Defense features local co-op multiplayer for iOS and online co-op for select platforms, allowing up to four players to strategically coordinate tower placement and resource allocation.
