Quality of life update and the road to release

Summary We have noticed that for quite a number of years now that the Streamer vs Twitch mode was very rarely ever used by players and yet it added a great overhead on development. 99.9% of our players play the traditional game, rather than challenges or Twitch vs Streamer mode and therefore we have decided to remove it so that we can focus our efforts on improving the base game. Challenges will still remain and are unaffected. We also have some quality of life additions and a small bug fix. The road to release We will monitor feedback over the next couple of months and will aim to release the game later this year. The game is incredibly balanced, we've got 1000's of players, loads of content and it has been incredibly stable (we've not had a crash report for years). It has been in development now for roughly 11 years and we're not planning on stopping soon, however many years of Early Access has brought great improvements through the community to get it to where it is today. The price will increase slightly when the game is out of Early Access, we still very much want it to be in the cheaper end of the market even though there's 100's of hours of replayability as we'd like lots of new players. Details on the slight price increase will come nearer release. Patch Notes Removed Streamer vs Twitch mode Clicking the Discord link on the Main Menu now opens our AegisM Discord Added message for Desert 5 to warn players about a one time choice regarding the barriers/lane In game message window was not displaying for the correct amount of time, this affected the majority of informational messages in the game. Fixed areas whereby towers could be placed on the floor on Desert 2 You can now shoot and aim properly with Bridges on Desert 3 and Forest 7 Fixed ghost tower collision for bridges on Forest 3

  • Public Linux depots



  • 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!
