Northend Tower Defense 0.6 Patch Notes – January 24, 2023
NEW MODES
There are now 2 primary modes:
Campaign Mode
- In campaign mode, you advance level by level, and at the end of the run, you’ll receive HP based on your performance.
- A unit you used in the previous round can be picked up to stay with you in the subsequent level so you can choose it from the upgrades.
- Each new level, new enemy unit type will be added.
- With each successive level, the run gets harder.
- The last level has a boss and a significant tank battle.
