v1.4.6 - QoL and Controls

Tower Escape
A browser game made in HTML5

I'd say this was a small update, but the changelog begs to differ! Mostly small Quality of Life and interface improvements, but I hope some of it makes your lives a little easier! The game can now be player 99% with a controller, although some things may be a bit awkward. Likewise for keyboard-only play. You can also now mouse over towers or minions to see their range and stats (for towers, it will only show one tower range at a time if your cursor is directly over them).

In addition to the number keys allowing speed changes, the function keys can now be used to open the tab screens, or the tab button will cycle through them. On the controller, the trigger keys control speed and shoulder buttons change tabs.

The game has also been tweaked slightly easier now, with fewer defender upgrades occurring between waves.
