TowerBeats: Rhythm Defense
A downloadable game for Windows
TowerBeats is a rhythm-based tower defense game where each tower you build dynamically changes the background music. Every level is a challenge to your strategic thinking ability and a chance to create your own original soundtrack. For the first time ever, you can be the commander and the DJ at the same time!
Features
- Build towers to defend your base and remix the music.
- 3 different types of towers for you to build and upgrade, each with its own attacks and sounds.
- Cyberpunk/Neon visual-style.
- 2 different levels, each with its own original Synthwave soundtrack for you to remix. (More levels coming soon!)
- Mac and Linux versions coming soon!

POV: you focus on makeing good beat instead of defending
(+when more levels)
Easily one of the best games on itch.io
Heya! This is probably a dead project, but i found a potentially game-breaking bug...
If you sell a tier 3 laser tower, you get infinite money, and then you also get a score at the end of like 1.0723 + 23E
It's kinda broke, but really good game!
I had a lot of fun playing it and i used the bug to get infinite money so i could try out new beats! (The bug basically makes it sandbox mode)
Thanks for this incredible game, and I hope you can work on it soon!
This is awesome! It's a really unique idea and it worked really well! If I had the money, I'd support this game without hesitation! Really looking forward to seeing more of this.
Neat idea.
YO, it was great! I finished both levels, and can't wait to see more!
YO! appreciate the support ! I got a lot of ideas for where this game could go so stay tuned.
Hey! Played a bit of this on my channel! :D
