And reached the modding tools as well

Btw i did a search for "tower" and it didnt show.

Perhaps because the topic is called tower57 ?

Mind completely blown. This just looks better and better all the time Shocked Absolutely *gorgeous* animation and artwork, and I love the new dialogue/NPC system!

~edit~

Oh and yes, NFO's busto search system is very confused sometimes. "Tower" doesn't work, "Tower57" does.

@sabin1981
Looks great indeed. Very Happy

Any news when this comes out, and if it will be on Steam too?

It's a Steam game first and foremost Smile The stretch goals from the KS were for other platforms. No idea on release date yet - should be this year hopefully. Playable alpha builds are out for KS backers, Alpha 6 just came out and they move to Beta this month. I'm guessing we'll see a release either end of this month or beginning of next Smile

The reviews say all you need to know about this game. Disappointing gameplay, lack of challenge, very short ... too bad because the gfx and the mechanics are good. Sad Sad

And someone should fix the retarded title, there is no space between Tower and 57.

Well my playthrough, we tried co-op but imo its implemented badly, i.e you will hate your friends in minutes as its possible to damage each other and resources are not shared. The screen gets so busy in coop its just hell to play. So we quickly opted to do solo runs and compare notes, well i clocked the whole game effortlessly on normal in 3 hours, if i didn't waste time co-op'ing it could have easily been refunded.

Playing on hard is a different matter, so if you pick it up use that difficulty to get some longevity out of the game.. > note you will rage from cheap deaths and the moment you lose 1 of your 3 chars you may as well restart.

Outside of those obvious draw backs, gameplay is better than that of chaos engine with lots of destructibles and upgrades etc to play around with. There are also lots of pop culture references and easter eggs which are done well. They just didn't have enough money to get the 6-8 hours of content it needed. Its reasonable well fleshed out, the boss battles could be a lot better as they way too easy to be memorable.
