Here’s an upcoming indie game with a genre mashup coming real soon. Wall World, developed by Alawar Premium, is part roguelite and part tower defence.
Set in a mysterious and fantastical world, players explore the wall on the right side of the screen, digging their way into it and uncovering secrets.
Your base, a robospider, can also be attacked on the left side of the screen. So you sometimes need to go back in the robot and defend your ground.
And so it presents the player with a challenge. Stray too far exploring deep in the wall and you’ll risk the robospider getting destroyed, but the deeper you go the better resources you can find for upgrades.
Wall World has an upgrade system- which comes part and parcel for rougelites, and there are various locations and biomes to explore.
Wall World already has a demo available on Steam so you can check out and see if the game is something you might like. Wall World will be out on April 5 on PC via Steam.
