SteamAbout Defense The Drone
Hold out for 15 minutes!
Defend your base against the drone swarm closing in! Hold the line until friendly reinforcements arrive at the 15-minute mark! As time goes on, drones get tougher and come in bigger numbers. If your base falls, it's game over!
Level up and craft your own build
Shoot down drones and collect scrap to level up. Every level-up deals you 3 cards. Skip to repair your base, or pick a new tower, an upgrade, an augment or a bonus and play it your way. Don't like your hand? Reroll it!
Opening rushes, the cards you're offered and buff pad locations change every run. No two runs are ever the same!
Use the terrain
Every map has its own terrain. Use it to defend your base! Towers on high ground get extra range!
Exploit their weaknesses
Energy tears through shields, explosives crack armor, and physical rounds hit bare hulls a little harder. Pick your towers to match the drones coming at you!
Powerful bosses
Survive long enough and powerful bosses will come for you!
Every boss you take down gives you a guaranteed Extra Pick. The Colossus gives you two! Elite drones and special drones like Aegis, Splitter, Medic and Hacker join the swarm, too! Shoot down an elite and you might get an Extra Pick or a base repair. And don't let the Golden Drones get away. They drop rare supplies!
6 bases, each with its own skill
Every base has its own HP, main gun and skill. Hit Space to fire off your skill when things get desperate! Complete hidden achievements to unlock two special bases!
Combos that feel great
Chain your kills to build up combos. Combos climb through 5 tiers, and every new tier earns you bonus scrap! Hit-stop, flying debris and screen shake make every kill feel punchy. You can adjust screen shake in the settings.
