Darkest Defense is a prototype tower defense concept where the only light comes from your enemies. As they march through the darkness, their glowing bodies illuminate the path, revealing where you can place towers and plan your strategy.

This is a very small experiment - there’s only one enemy type and one tower. I created it mainly to explore tower defense mechanics, ragdoll physics, dynamic game speed, and lighting effects. I decided to post it because it turned out weirdly interesting and fun to look at.


Controls: Keys 1, 2, and 3 control game speed.
Tip: Downloading is recommended for better lighting and performance
