You are the Block Lord, Perfect and 32, yet these stupid horn-blowing Crusaders can't seem to understand that you are not to be trifled with. Trifle back!

  • WASD + Mouse Monster Blasting: Dash and swoop around the tower while igniting your enemies.
  • Block Stacking Puzzle Phase: Rebuild and gain new power by matching falling blocks.
  • Escalating Conflict: Bigger tower, bigger weapons, more crusaders, louder doots.
  • Working Leaderboards: Outscore your bad and terrible friends. Powered by Dreamlo!

As ever, I wanted to take my love for shooty gameplay and tie it into other genres, this time I picked the arcade classic Rampart. Fight some monsters, build up a base, fight more, build more, wave after wave. The enemy growth and player piece variety feed in at a pretty solid rate, teaching you little bits of gameplay as you move along. In the end I cut out all but the most basic shapes, as the near-misses from cleverly shaped pieces just ended up feeling bad.

The Leaderboards are real, so get up there and dunk on your friends. If you make it to the later waves I'd love to hear about your strategy in the comments!

Doot.

Whoaw, this game is a cool mix between shooter, tower defense and Tetris. And all of that works pretty great together. Graphics are also pretty great, crusaders look very cute. Also the variety of the enemies is impressive, they attack from every angle possible. It is really cool game with innovative mechanics and more people need to play this! You should rate some games so your game won't be overlooked, that would be really a shame.
