Hey everyone,

We've just released a first playable demo of our game!

Dawn of Defense is a Roguelite Tower Defense game with RTS elements. Surrounded by enemies, your tribe is the last bastion against the Empire. Build towers to fight enemy troops in the trenches, train warriors and retake territory to build on. Reclaim your lands and defeat the baneful Empire!

We would be very happy if you could try out our demo and let us know what you think!
