[SUMMER + MELODY] Vocaloid Tower Defense
Core loop
Step
Before a stage begins, you put together a loadout — the set of Vocaloid towers you plan to use. Once enemies start coming in waves, you place those towers on the map and upgrade them. Surviving all the waves clears the stage.
- Pick a loadout choose which Vocaloid towers to bring into the stage before it starts.
- Place towers set them down on the map when the stage begins.
- Upgrade towers make your placed towers stronger.
- Survive the waves hold out against each enemy wave until the stage ends.
