FULL DESCRIPTION

LAYERED LOOP is a minimalist tower defense game.

Towers in the game automatically level up when conditions are met, gaining increased damage or production efficiency. After reaching a certain level, towers can devour adjacent key structures to evolve, unlocking new abilities or massive stat boosts.

You can build towers on top of existing ones like constructing a skyscraper, with the effects of all layers retained. Once a tower stack reaches 5 levels, it grants various global buffs based on its composition.

Build endless towers in limited spaces to fend off the endless waves of enemies!

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

THE CORE

At the center of this circular world lies a living Core.

Enemies surge toward it endlessly.

You have only one mission: build defenses and protect the Core.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

CORE MECHANICS

MODULAR STACKING AND MIRACLES (5-LAYER WONDERS)

Stacking — After a tower is passed by a hero a certain number of times and reaches a set level, you may build a new structure on top of it, just like on a normal tile.

The cost: all layers below the top one lose their growth ability.

Miracle — Layer 1 → 2 → … → 5.

When a stack reaches 5 layers, a Miracle awakens, granting powerful global buffs to all structures on the field.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

EVOLUTION SYSTEM

Each structure has 3 evolution stages.

Each evolution requires reaching a certain level and consuming an adjacent Key structure, in exchange for far greater power.

Tier 1: Primitive Form

Tier 2: Enhanced Variant

Tier 3: Ultimate Form — beyond the ordinary

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

SYNERGY & RESONANCE

Synergy — Structures affect one another:

Data Station (S): generates Data Energy

Defense Tower (D): converts Data Energy into bullets

Booster (B): increases fire rate of nearby structures

Amplifier (A): exponentially boosts damage of lower layers

And more.

Resonance — When a hero passes by, different structures trigger different effects:

Passing S grants Data Energy

Passing D refills its Data Energy

Passing L gives free draws, etc.

Resonance is also a required condition for stacking.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

HERO JOURNEY

Each hero has unique active and passive abilities, supporting different build strategies.

Heroes with built-in weapons let you skip early towers and focus on economy.

Economic heroes allow you to prioritize defense.

Over 20 heroes in total, each offering a distinct playstyle.
