Layered Loop层叠环道

From the Devs

FULL DESCRIPTION

LAYERED LOOP is a minimalist tower defense game.

Towers in the game automatically level up when conditions are met, gaining increased damage or production efficiency. After reaching a certain level, towers can devour adjacent key structures to evolve, unlocking new abilities or massive stat boosts.

You can build towers on top of existing ones like constructing a skyscraper, with the effects of all layers retained. Once a tower stack reaches 5 levels, it grants various global buffs based on its composition.

Build endless towers in limited spaces to fend off the endless waves of enemies!

THE CORE

At the center of this circular world lies a living Core.

Enemies surge toward it endlessly.

You have only one mission: build defenses and protect the Core.

CORE MECHANICS

• MODULAR STACKING AND MIRACLES (5-LAYER WONDERS)

• Stacking — After a tower is passed by a hero a certain number of times and reaches a set level, you may build a new structure on top of it, just like on a normal tile.

  The cost: all layers below the top one lose their growth ability.

• Miracle — Layer 1 → 2 → … → 5.

  When a stack reaches 5 layers, a Miracle awakens, granting powerful global buffs to all structures on the field.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• EVOLUTION SYSTEM

Each structure has 3 evolution stages.

Each evolution requires reaching a certain level and consuming an adjacent Key structure, in exchange for far greater power.

• Tier 1: Primitive Form

• Tier 2: Enhanced Variant

• Tier 3: Ultimate Form — beyond the ordinary

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• SYNERGY & RESONANCE

• Synergy — Structures affect one another:

  • Data Station (S): generates Data Energy

  • Defense Tower (D): converts Data Energy into bullets

  • Booster (B): increases fire rate of nearby structures

  • Amplifier (A): exponentially boosts damage of lower layers

    And more.

• Resonance — When a hero passes by, different structures trigger different effects:

  • Passing S grants Data Energy

  • Passing D refills its Data Energy

  • Passing L gives free draws, etc.

    Resonance is also a required condition for stacking.

• HERO JOURNEY

Each hero has unique active and passive abilities, supporting different build strategies.

Heroes with built-in weapons let you skip early towers and focus on economy.
