Indie game Immortal Defense is awesome, on sale for $3 photo

If you haven't already played Immortal Defense -- known around the Burch household as "the single best tower defense game ever made next to Plants vs Zombies" -- you're in luck. In celebration of his own birthday, creator rinkuhero has dropped the price of his metaphysical epic from $15 to $3.

Go here and enter "BMCN000H7" (without quotes) as a promo code. You won't see the price reduce until you click "confirm order."

All proceeds presumably go toward funding Saturated Dreamers, rinkuhero's next project. You can find out more about the game at its Kickstarter page, but suffice to say it's a top-down exploration game about a big-ass alien lake. Such a cliche, I know.

Anyway, I highly, highly, highly recommend getting Immortal Defense while it's this cheap. Regardless of whether you tend to like tower defense games or not, ID remains unparalleled in its satisfyingly minimalist design and surprisingly well-written story. Act quickly, though: according to the email sent to me by rinkuhero, the sale ends September 30th (alternately, IndieGames.com says Oct 4).

I played this a while ago (last year?) and I remember loving it. I recommend this download to everyone with a brain for philosophy.

Fuck. Carl Sagan had to go and post and convince me to buy this from beyond the grave. Downloading now.

Hey, sweet, Orchard-L is doing the graphics for Kickstarter. He's an excellent pixel artist.
I highly recommend this game, not only because I (somewhat) know Rinkuhero, but because the game is totally awesome.

oct 4 is the correct end date -- i changed it since i figured 2 days might be too little time for people to get the email and notice it (not everyone checks email every day); but i didn't want to send another email just to let people know about the new date (it'd clutter up people's inboxes)

thanks to everyone who bought / tried out the game!

unrelatedly, there's a carl sagan youtube video where he's singing (auto-tuned) about galaxyrises and it is great

If you're sheepish about hitting "confirm order" without applying the sale price first, you can click "recalculate price" after entering the code.

Highly recommended purchase!

I just bought it... but I wasn't sent to any download link or anything. How do I actually get the game now that I've paid for it?

sometimes it takes a while to process. also check the spam folder just in case. if it doesn't show up in an hour or so, let me know (email me: rinkuhero at gmail dot com) w/ your order info.

Interesting game design with a good story? From an indie dev that supports Kiva? Only $3?? I win!

It's $3, what the hell, I'll give it a go. If everyone's opinion here is correct, then I'm in for a great time with Immortal Defense.

It's an amazing game, but far from light-hearted fare.

$3? Thank you sir, may I have another? Incredibly generous offer on a fantastic game.

Happy freaking Birthday, by the way.

$3 is the point at which I'll buy any game without bothering with a demo.
