Nibble & Byte Games :
Chicago, USA - May 14th, 2024 - Nibble & Byte is releasing a jam packed quality-of-life update for the demo of their upcoming game, The Fall of Aether Station. Customize your ships, upgrade your fleet, and command your way to victory in this ruthless rogue-lite tower defense game. Fight hordes of alien ships, including a new swarmer enemy type, as you adapt to dynamic battlefields with increasingly stronger enemy ships. Do you have what it takes to save Aether Station?
Take on a True Rogue-lite Tower Defense Experience With These Updates:
New enemy type that will spawn behind your defenses and keep even the most strategic mind on edge.
Whether you prefer to move with right click like in RTS games, or left click, we have you covered. You can also switch between the two at any time!
Reworked shipyard screen to make stats more clear and trade offs between choices readily available.
The tutorial has been streamlined to demonstrate key features without holding the player’s hand too much.
And so, so much more!
The full game, set to release June 2024, will include 15 levels each with 60 initial waves with an endless mode to follow post launch. Utilize a wide array of customizable ship classes, each with its own strengths and abilities, and hundreds of upgrades. Experiment with different combinations of weapons to develop the ultimate defense strategy and outsmart your foes. This demo update has improved the tutorial, rebalanced combat, control preferences, a beautiful new UI, a new enemy type, many bug fixes, and more.
We at Nibble & Byte have been busy making awesome changes to the demo build, including a legendary ship that unlocks at the end of each ship tech tree, as well as new levels and initial structures.
