About Engineered To Purpose
Engineered To Purpose is a WIP narratively-driven sci-fi tower defence game which allows players to design their own towers, customising attacks, targeting schemes, and more. As pressure mounts, plan out and optimise your defences in order to defeat hordes of enemies!
This is a work in progress, NOT a finished game. The current state of the game is polished enough that you should get a lot of value out of it - but there is a lot of planned content that is not in place yet, and we want you to be able to make an informed decision when buying the game. Two more worlds and the conclusion of our story, new components to build with, new enemy types, and new game modes for post-story replayability are all coming soon!
Tower Design

Our design system is based on combining sets of components and then assigning modifiers to the attack to customise each tower into a unique form and effect. The system allows you to use your unlocked components to build and experiment, adding a new layer of strategy to the tower defence formula.

Designing a tower can be done mid-level if you have enough room, or between levels in our workshop, where towers can be tested against any enemy you have encountered, and you can see the effect of your choices in real-time.

Key Demo Features:
Coming Soon!

its decent but the balance needs some work as the most basic tower with just attack speed upgrades is about 30% stronger then every other tower for the first 10 or so levels while being 40% cheeper5 found this helpful
I named a tower "the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 9000" and it killed my mom3 found this helpful
It's an okay game. Very short and 0 updates. It states work in progress. Fact is it's abandoned. More and more typical of Steam money grabs.2 found this helpful
Awesome music, really elaborate tower design mechanics, and a surprisingly weird and in-depth storyline for a tower defense game. I'm not really a fan of the genre but I've played quite a few and this one sticks out!2 found this helpful
I found this game through my teacher self promoting it, and while im not a big fan of tower defence games, this ones pretty fun. The tower customisation is pretty fun, and the explosive tower is as broken as I remember it being from the demo. decent game so far for sure.2 found this helpful
Fun TD game that's heavy on Strategy and Ambience.
