About Rise of the Cones: Planetary Defense

Something's coming down the path. Cone-shaped machines. Relentless, endless, and heading straight for your base. Your job: build the defense that stops them.

Classic tower defense, with depth

Enemies follow paths. You place towers freely. Every tower type serves a different purpose; raw damage, crowd control, support, area denial. Knowing when to use what is half the game.Every tower has 3 upgrade paths, each with 5 tiers.But you can only invest in 2 paths per tower.That means every tower becomes a decision: do you go all-in on damage, build a long-range zone controller, or make something weird and flexible?Earn research points from missions, unlock new towers and upgrades. The further you get, the wilder your builds become.

AWESOME game! You can tell it was made with passion and creativity. Really neat and detailed animations, sounds, and mechanics. I finished the game in about 2 or 3 days though so I am itching for new and longer maps, harder enemies, some story/lore, endless mode. For $8 I am very happy and I am excited to see where the developer takes this game :)

When I first started playing this I didn't think too much off it. Then I realised after about 9 hours I could build lots of refineries n got loads of credits. All was going well til I decided to play Red Dust Corridor level 3 (which I expected to be 30 waves) It's 60 waves n they were going along perfectly, not one cone got to my base, then as it got to level 40 the game froze n kicked me back to steam desktop, I was only a few hundred credits shy of 1 Million, everything fully upgraded, 22 buildings 17 of which were weapons, 3 lasers, 2 rockets, orbital weapon, etc .... thankfully the game saved before the crash n I was able to continue to victory lol The Tesla's are invaluable fully upgraded n overlapping each other.

Very little content, easily completed by abusable mechanics. Truly not challenging due to the easily accessed upgrades. Game crashes after 50+ rounds and that is unacceptable.

Game performance is just terrible on my Framework 13 under Linux.
