CoreLink

CoreLink is a sci-fi tower defense game that blends strategy, adaptability, and real-time action.

After your cargo ship crash-lands on a mysterious alien planet, you discover a powerful relic buried within your wreckage. This artifact might be the key to repairing your ship, but it also sends out an energy signal that draws hostile lifeforms from across the planet. To escape, you’ll have to defend the relic long enough to complete repairs and survive wave after wave of attacks.

You start from your base and expand your defense network across the terrain. Each tower you build comes equipped with two interchangeable modules, letting you swap their functions on the fly to adapt to the ever-changing enemy types. Need more firepower? More range? AOE Damage? It’s all about the right combination at the right time.

To give your towers an edge, you can also place Boosters. Specialized structures that act as upgrades, enhancing damage, fire rate or range -> each up to 3 times.

Unlike traditional tower defense games, you don’t just manage from above, you control a character in real time, moving across the battlefield to place, upgrade, and reconfigure your defenses as chaos unfolds. Every decision, every second, can mean the difference between holding the line and total destruction.

Originally developed by students from ISART Digital Paris for the Nintendo Switch, CoreLink has been ported to PC, offering a unique and intense tower defense experience where strategy and reflexes collide.

Will you adapt fast enough to survive… or be lost among the ruins of this alien world?
