OUR GAME
AeonFall – Hardcore Roguelike Defense
Hybrid Control
Strategic defense fused with direct character control. You have to handle real-time strategy and fine-grained combat at once.
Noise-Driven Threat
Every action makes noise — farming resources, fighting, all of it. Expand carelessly and it leads to a wave far bigger than you can handle.
Massive Waves
Waves that fill the screen, and the assault of colossal bosses. You have to overcome odds that raw firepower alone cannot hold back.
Dynamic Survival
Terrain, resources and class builds change every run. There is no set answer — you carve out a new route to survival each time.

Hundreds of thousands of infected move across the whole map in real time. Waves come on a cycle, and on the final day they pour in from every direction with a boss.
-
Terrain, resource placement, nest locations, boss types and the directions they attack from are randomised every time. You have to build to counter the boss you drew, in real time.
-
Yes, we are making it very hard. If your oxygen or health runs out, or your base is overrun, it ends immediately. It is designed so that you find the answers through many failures.
-
