PRISM DEFENSE

a minimalist Tower Defense game built entirely with code, math, and primitive geometry.

The neon grid is under attack. Defend the Core with high-frequency geometric warfare.

PRISM DEFENSE is a fast-paced, portrait-oriented Tower Defense game built with a minimalist, futuristic aesthetic. Strategize your placement on a 120px grid, manage your ¢ (Credits) economy, and evolve your towers to survive increasingly data-dense waves of enemies.

Deploy Your Arsenal

Every tower features a 3-Level Evolution System with standardized costs and unique late-game capabilities:

  • PRISM (¢10): High-speed single-target laser. Evolves into the Minigun—shredding bosses with ultra-high frequency fire.
  • PULSAR (¢20): Geometric AoE shockwave. Evolves with a Gravity Well—striking all enemies in range with a 90% slow effect.
  • STASIS (¢20): Passive slowing aura. No damage, but creates a permanent Stasis Field reducing enemy speed by up to 80%.
  • BOLT (¢30): Chain-lightning specialist. Evolves into a Superconductor—leaping between 8 targets without losing damage intensity.

Face the Swarm

Face off against 4 distinct threat types that scale in health and complexity:

  • SIGNALS: Standard baseline units.
  • SWARMERS: Ultra-fast, low-HP harassment units that move at 2.5x speed.
  • SPLITTERS: Heavily armored units that fracture into 3 Swarmers upon destruction.
  • BOSS GEOMETRY: Encountered every 5 waves. Massive spinning stars that pulse, change colors based on HP, and frantically blink when near death.

Two Distinct Game Modes

  • CAMPAIGN: 3 hand-crafted portrait levels with specific pathfinding and wave counts. Clear the "Final Boss" to unlock the void.
  • ENDLESS MODE: Procedural path generation! Every run is unique, featuring a randomized North-to-South path that challenges your adaptability.

Controls:

  • Mouse / Touch: Select towers from the bottom dock and click the grid to place.
  • Select a placed tower for an upgrade/sell pop-up menu
