Gotta have a chain lightning tower if you're making a tower defense game. Hopefully the effect feels satisfying enough!

Just hit 10k wishlists on Outhold, three weeks after launching the Steam page.

For reference, this took a full year to achieve with our previous game. 😅

Looks like our demo just hit the Trending Free tab on the Steam frontpage. This can't be right, can it? 😅

We've uploaded a playtest demo of Outhold on Itch, our potential next game.

It's a short, minimalistic incremental game that blends tower defense strategy with a deep meta-progression. So far we've had over 4000 players play the browser version!

Try it here: tellusgames.itch.io/outhold

Here's a first look at a prototype I'm working on for our Next Game™

It's a minimalistic incremental game with tower defense mechanics, titled "Outhold"

The plan is to have a demo up on Itch within the next few weeks

Players have been asking for a Sudden Death mechanic to prevent rounds from stalling out forever, so I started working on a PUBG-inspired closing circle that destroys the map and damages players.

Should hopefully be out with a patch this week!

A tricky challenge we had during development of Oblin Party was simplifying our control scheme to be friendly to beginners, without sacrificing the fine-grained movement that we wanted to provide our advanced players.

Here's how we solved it!
