Eye of the Summoner, the dark fantasy tower defense game, is now available for Windows, Linux, and Steam Deck. Originally created during Ludum Dare 55, Eye of the Summoner has grown into a full-featured game thanks to strong community support. Players take on the role of the Eye, a mysterious force bound to a cursed tower, summoning dark minions to fend off waves of heroic human invaders. The game blends strategy and action as players rotate the tower to direct their summons, select upgrade cards between waves, and adapt to an ever-growing onslaught of enemies.

• Endless wave-based survival with increasing difficulty
• Six summonable minion types with upgradeable stats and abilities
• Steam achievements, cloud saves, global leaderboards, and full controller support
• Full compatibility with Windows, Linux, and Steam Deck

We are happy to announce that Eye of the Summoner, a unique dark fantasy tower defense game, will launch on Steam for Windows, Linux, and Steam Deck on May 16, 2025.

Today, we are happy to introduce Eye of the Summoner as our contribution to Steam Next Fest: June 2024. If you played this game during Ludum Dare 55 Game Jam, you will see how far we have come with this new milestone. If you did not, you now have the chance to start following us on this exciting adventure. What we are showcasing today is an early alpha version of this auto-battler tower defense game, where YOU are the tower. The game is far from complete, but we wanted to offer a sneak peek of what is to come. In the final version of Eye of the Summoner, there will be more units with different skills, permanent skill unlocks as in every respectable roguelike, improved sound and video effects, full support for game controllers and the Steam Deck, and, later, local and online multiplayer. We are also continuously working on testing and balancing to make the experience as rewarding and fun as possible. [previewyoutube=SG_6NOs28VQ;full][/previewyoutube] We believe that Eye of the Summoner is the perfect game to challenge yourselves, your friends, and strangers on the leaderboards to be the best at repelling the hordes of knights threatening the tower. We are confident that streamers will enjoy showing off their skills and challenging their audiences to beat their high scores, even more so when all the features are in place. Eye of the Summoner is available on PC, Linux and Steam Deck at the moment.
