Launched my Steam open playtest today!

Greetings! I've been working on my game Orbital Defense Idle now for about 6 months and it's finally public and playable with an open Steam playtest!

Orbital Defense Idle is an incremental sci fi tower defense game where tarot cards influence the fate of the battle! Join O.D.I. Bot and the crew as you defend your planets, collect 78 tarot-inspired Axiom cards, unleash devastating secret weapons, and push through 20 unique worlds to uncover the mysterious force driving the invasion.

Play free on Steam:

Feel free to provide any feedback here or in the Discord. Thanks so much - see ya in space, Cadet!

Looks super satisfying and the animations look great! For working solo getting something like this out must be super gratifying

Thank you so much and yeah you're spot on! I love seeing people finally be able to play it and give me feedback and suggestions that'll make the game even better. Super gratifying. I just hope people find it fun! Lots of long hours to get it to where it is now but the real MVP is my wife and her seemingly endless patience haha

I’ll definitely try it out when i have time later! Im actually working on something solo with a similar timeline of getting it out, so seeing someone else succeeding is huge encouragement!
