About Sunbreak War

When night falls, hordes of undead will invade this land. A young warrior carrying the dragon's legacy follows an ancient oath to confront the encroaching darkness. You are the symbol of hope and light. Your resistance has provoked their wrath, and now they seek to destroy everything you protect.
Build by day, fight by night—defend your home with wit and blade!
By day, you need to construct and upgrade 30 different buildings and units, allocate resources to develop your economy, and deploy soldiers to build an impenetrable defense line.
The game offers 6 unique weapons, each with distinct skills and 30 upgradable talents. Defeating enemies in battle grants Rogue boons, allowing you to freely combine and create your own combat style.
At night, 40 different types of monsters will emerge, launching frenzied attacks. On the final night, the map's ultimate boss will personally descend—prepare for an epic showdown!
9 distinct maps, each with rising difficulty, will test your tactics and decisions. Challenge higher difficulties and unlock more possibilities!

✦ AI summary

Players appreciate Thronefall as a fun, affordable blend of tower defense, roguelike, and strategy elements with responsive developer support, though many note it feels derivative of the original Thronefall with less polish, depth, and challenge tuning. The core gameplay loop is enjoyable despite some minor audio issues and balancing concerns, making it a worthwhile purchase at the right price for fans of the genre.

The game is fun for what it is and specially for the price, i was concerned about the video settings but the developer fixed it and added a FPS Limiter to the game right away, essentially fixing my main concern with the game. i would like to thank the developer for listening to my concern and fixing it, hopefully the game keeps improving and becoming better and better

Best combo game ever made RTS, Roguelike, Tower Defense, City Builder, and Auto battler it's all here. Some minor audio hiccups but gameplay is outstanding and fun. While the strategy system might not be deep it does enough to be enjoyable. 9/10 https://youtu.be/6Y22sjMLMt4?si=dGaIfcoTGDCjlf8Z

So yeah, this is totally just a Thronefall clone. Thronefall definitely has more challenge, scaling, polish, and much better ui than this. If you want to play this type of game and haven't played Thronefall yet, go do that, it's amazing. That being said, this is also not a bad game. While I do think it needs tighter difficulty for risk/reward in building economic / military buildings (especially since it gives you roguelite progression as an extra handicap), I haven't run into any game breaking issues or irritants. It's made well enough, just short the tuning. If you want to scratch that nightly defense itch, go for it, it's cheap on sale (and even full price, really).

Very very fun game. I didn't think I would enjoy it as much as I did. I hope you expand on this idea either through this game or through making another similar game that's a marriage between tower defense and survivor/bullet hell.
