Co-op update is now live!

The first major update for CapsuleTD has been released.


Co-op multiplayer has been added to the game.
You can now play with up to 4 players cooperatively!
We've added a full lobby system with inviting, kicking and also spectators for late joiners to a game.

We've added 2 more maps to the initial map pool and revamped the existing ones

Some things, are forever.
Don't let this simple shape fool you, the capsules will assault the central slipgate portal from the two prongs at once. Dividing your attention too much might spell your doom though. Oh and watch your step, it's a long fall.
The capsules roll down the gentle slope with not too much space to build on.
Can you stop this cascade before it drowns you?
Apart from all those new playgrounds that you and your friends can conquer we also added some new toys to play with.
There are two new towers and a rework of the existing ones!
This is the new Basic Tower. It has 2 upgrade paths for faster shooting or higher damage.
Load up on double the toast or forego the bread based increase in firerate in favor of shooting cutlery at those pesky capsules!
 
Upgrade paths
Tier 1
  • More Toast - increases firerate
  • Forks - Increases damage per hit
Tier 2
  • Quad slot - upgrades from more toast - Double the toast, double the crunch
  • Knifes - upgrades from forks - decastating cutlery projectiles slice up capsules like a hot knife through butter
Passive upgrades:
  • Range Upgrade 1, 2, 3
  • Radar (Glass detection)
 
This tower shoots homing insects at the capsules that can be upgraded to do more damage, hit multiple times and add more projectiles.
Pick between wasps and hornets for hitting more capsules, or go for the deadly dragonfly that will hunt down capsules for massive damage.
Upgrade paths
Tier 1
  • Wasp - hits more capsules before expiring
  • Bumblebee - attacks the same capsule multiple times
Tier 2
  • Hornet - upgrades from wasp - hits even more capsules per attack
  • Dragonfly - upgrades from bumblebee - relentlessly hunts down a capsule and strikes it many times
Passive upgrades:
  • Swarm increase - adds more insects per attack, increasing damage
The laser tower got some changes to its balancing and also now has side upgrades for glass detection and firerate.
 
Upgrade paths
Tier 1
  • Fast Laser
  • Heavy Laser (Anti Metal)
Tier 2
  • Even Faster Laser
  • Really Heavy Laser (Anti Metal)
Passive upgrades:
  • Fire Rate Upgrade 1, 2, 3
  • Radar (Glass detection)
 
This tower can now be upgraded for either AOE (explosion) damage or metal penetration and additionally got the radar and fire rate side upgrades.
 
Upgrade paths
Tier 1
  • Ink Pen Explosion (AOE Damage)
  • Rebar Shooter (Anti Metal)
Tier 2
  • Bigger Ink Pen Explosion  (AOE Damage) 
  • Double Rebar Shooter

  • Range Upgrade 1, 2, 3
 
There's also some quality of life improvements and a couple new features this update.
  • An optional third person mode has been added that can be freely switched to by scrolling the mouse wheel, the position of the camera behind the player can even be adjusted by holding down middle mouse and dragging the mouse around. Want the default back? Just tap the middle mouse button once and it'll return to the center.
  • People who join your lobby mid-round spawn in as spectators and the host has to allow them in via the escape menu. If you join late, you can request a respawn that notifies the host and tells them you want to play.
  • The infomode menu has been massively improved and shows the current progress of the capsules along the track (this even works for multitrack maps like Eternity) and it displays what type and how many capsules are coming this round.
