What makes Iron Star unique?

The biggest feature in Iron Star that sets it apart from other Tower Defense games is spawning units. The player’s arsenal of units will have a cost to build, time to build, damage output, range, speed, and health. There will be many different units, but the basic types are Infantry, Tanks, Zeppelins, and Mechs.

These machines of war have varying effectiveness against each other and the order in which you spawn them will make a massive difference. Players must balance the options of spawning units to destroy enemy threats, building defenses to feel more secure, or investing in research to improve their armies or defenses.

There will be modes of gameplay for all types of players that will introduce a very high level of replay-ability. These modes include campaign, multiplayer, and survival. Campaign will offer players an interesting story as well as long term goals and varying levels. Unlocking new units as they go, players will get tons of rewards for playing the campaign. Multiplayer will pit players head-to-head with each other, as well as a ranking system to know where you stand against the competition. Survival mode will test players to see how long they can survive against waves of enemies with an increasing difficulty curve. Players will also have the option to practice against AI in skirmish type matches.

Players will get the option to play as different Nations. These Nations include Belgium, Britain, Japan, Russia, Germany, and America. Each nation can be leveled up individually and will have unique units, especially Mechs.

The gameplay in Iron Star is very simple. It consists of choosing to spawn units, construct defenses, or research upgrades. The ultimate goal is to destroy the enemy Headquarters building. The Headquarters or HQ is the building that produces a players units.
