About this gameFull description from Steam
Kritter: Defend Together blends tower defense, party game, and roguelite elements. Solo or with up to 4 players, your goal is to protect M. Ark, the coolest spaceship in the universe. YOUR ROLE Defend M. Ark at all costs against waves of hostile enemies Explore the surroundings, gather resources, strengthen your base, and grow stronger Die. Yes, sorry, it’s part of the deal. But everything you’ve gained will carry over to your next run Between waves, take advantage of the downtime to gather valuable resources. Find power-ups to craft a devastating build for your Kritter Collect building materials to upgrade your defenses Encounter random events across 3 different procedurally generated levels According to the Manual, we're going to need resources to craft ramparts, turrets, and traps to facilitate our survival. It also advises staying alert, as certain events might occur during exploration: arena fights, bases containing upgrade chests, patrols offering gold and resources... Well, this Manual knows a lot of things! Waves of enemies will crash onto M. Ark at regular intervals. Your job is to take them down! Anticipate incoming enemies and make it back to M. Ark in time Fight using one of 4 classes (Defender, Tracker, Engineer, and Ninja) Build defenses (walls, traps, turrets…) The better your defense, the higher your rank—and the better your rewards During a run, your choices are key to gaining as much power as possible. After each successful wave, choose between 3 rewards: more damage? Repair M. Ark? A small health potion? Your call Upgrade your base buildings to boost your economy and gain more exploration time All run-based upgrades are temporary and disappear at the end of the run… all except Soul Crystals! No worries, it happens to the best of us. M. Ark will simply trigger a temporal rewind. All your upgrades will be lost except your Soul Crystals Use them to unlock permanent upgrades: a radar, a merchant, a second wall row… and much more Each run helps you improve your talent tree and come back stronger Unlock all items in the game for even more synergies and combos Hardcore mode unlocks after beating normal mode An endless mode with a leaderboard to see who can reach the highest wave in the world A speedrun mode to find out who’s the fastest The Kritters will also have the possibility to change model among: The Defender: Melee specialist, more robust. Make pretty windmills with your sword and turn your enemies into salami. The Engineer: Fancy a little extraterrestrial barbecue? With their flamethrower and turret, they are perfect for area damage and covering multiple fronts. The Tracker: The long-range Kritter, specialized in explosives and precision shots! A small mine here, a missile there, and bam, done. The Ninja: Swift and sharp, he doesn’t hold back. Faster than his peers, he dashes through enemies to lacerate them and rains down kunais from a distance. Simple, clean, and lethal. And more to come... The Manual stops there. It doesn't seem to indicate any other steps... Nevertheless, it offers us "its most sincere condolences" and "will report the loss of you and the Kritters to your families." Nice of it! Ready, Kritters? TO YOUR POSITIONS!
