We're currently in the process of improving a lot of the core systems in the game for a brighter future. We have made a beta branch available in Steam which you can play instead of the current live build. How to opt-in To get the new beta version, simply: * Right click AegisM in your Steam library * Click Properties * Click the BETAS tab * Click on the drop down arrow and select "beta - Steam Networking" * Click OK Steam should now download the new version of the game and when you play the game, it will be the beta version. You can repeat these steps and select "None - Opt out of all betas" to go back to the older/live version. What has changed in the beta? So the beta build, changes all of the networking to use Steams infrastructure (NAT punch-through etc) and implements a new weather system. We have also updated the game engine to a much newer version which resolves a lot of issues with people loading the game. Matchmaking and joining a multiplayer game should now be much more reliable than the current live build. If you had trouble connecting to a game in the past, try this version and it will hopefully succeed! The weather system has been replaced to something much more efficient and performance friendly. We have also added a thunderstorm effect and a very slight red tint when the sun is rising. Things to note Even though we are Early Access in the current live version, this may introduce even more bugs until it has been tested further. Picture this version as like a super early alpha but we wanted to give players the option to see what's coming and help us find those silly issues! Once enough testing has been conducted, we will move the beta into live and it will become the main version. Patch notes for beta version * Resolved issue with evolved teslas not causing full damage * Resolved issue with teleporter not working for other players * Improved game lock up when using golem magical power (still working on this) * Laser tower evolve cost lowered from 50 coins to 25 coins * Stopped players from being able to run behind the trader on Forest 4 * Potential fix for loading the game on 144hz monitors * Resolved issue with Ice Magical Ability * Improved weather system, added thunderstorms, new morning lighting * Networking reworked to use the Steam infrastructure (NAT punchthrough etc) * Kappa evolve and sell costs are now correct * Large improvements to network and in-game performance We hope some of you try the new version and report any issues you find in our Discord (or in the Steam community forums if you don't have Discord) where they will be fixed very quickly! Enjoy!

The Game includes VR Support
AegisM Early Access Linux Depot [3.43 G]
AegisM is a competitive tower defence game with a twist. It combines tower defence with a wave survival/top down action shooter and then adds more new and exciting elements to the mix. Work alone or team up with others to work out the best strategy to achieve the highest scores on the never ending survival leaderboards. Once you're ready to prove yourself even more, you can take to the Player vs Player mode with competitive matchmaking and ELO ratings. AegisM is unlike other tower defence games; there are no waves of enemies, it's never ending, gradually getting harder and harder until you can't survive anymore and your strategy fails you.
Unique Bosses
As the game progresses and you last longer, you get introduced to new bosses. Each boss has a unique ability such as speed boosting, protecting, skull distracting and much more. Did we mention you don't just have to worry about land? There's also various types of air units to beat!Skill Points
At the start of every game you get to spend 5 skill points on making your character unique. Put points into movement speed, reduced reload speed, build cost reduction, movement speed and more! Build a character around your style of play.Achievements and Unlockables
Earn experience, gain levels, unlock new characters, magical powers and abilities that help you defeat the never ending horde of enemies! Achievement progress is displayed in game so you can see how far off you are from unlocking the character you want.Multiple Towers, each with 3 levels
There's currently 11 different types of tower, each with 3 levels. See the stats for every tower, which player owns it, what the range of the tower is and what will happen if you upgrade it, simply by clicking it. You can also configure shortcut keys to speed build and upgrade.Character Abilities
Once unlocked through experience, you can select from various abilities that help aid your fight. These include slow dome, teleporters, dash, barriers and radars.Magical Powers
Once unlocked through experience, you can select from various magical powers that compliment abilities and your character customisation. These include golem smash, ice block, heal base, character rage and a coin collector.Multiple Environments with Dynamic Weather
Fight it out in the Forest, Desert or even indoors in the crypts! There's a full day and night cycle (this only affects the game visually), along with rain and snow - the world you're fighting in feels alive! There's also interactive elements such as lifts, dynamically changing levels and flame walls to add yet more variety.Vendor with a huge selection of weapons
Don't like tower defence, want a hybrid strategy, or just simply enjoy shooting? Use your coins to buy weapons instead of towers and do the shooting yourself! There's a pistol, rifle, shotgun, laser, railgun and flame thrower to use. Lets not forget to mention the grenades, mines and air strikes that you can purchase!Incredible replayability and a huge range of strategies
We have players who have put 100's (yes, 100's) of hours into working out the best strategies so don't be put off if you don't score top 10 on your first go. AegisM is incredibly competitive with worldwide leaderboards. As you play more and more, you start working out what you need to do to survive longer. Will you build towers only or go hybrid with guns? Will you shoot guns only? When will you upgrade that tower?Mini Games
There is an ever growing list of competitive mini games that range from shooters to maze and timed type of games. Each mini game has a competitive leaderboard, so you can even show the world you're the fastest builder or runner out there.Streamer vs Twitch mode
Are you a streamer? Well start interacting with your viewers with the Streamer vs Twitch mode! Every 3 minutes your chat gets to vote on what enemy they would like to send you. If you defeat it you score a point but if the enemy they have sent you reaches your base, the chat scores a point! Who will win? Please note this mode is not competitive but more of a fun mode for some streamers.Completely Balanced
The game has been in development for just short of 5 years with around 150 beta testers. We have spent years perfecting the balance, how things scale over time and changing costs to ensure that there are no silly strategies such as only placing one tower or only buying one gun. You can only last so long with that arrow tower or rifle!- Processor: 2 GHz Dual Core ProcessorMemory: 4 GB RAM
