A family-friendly, comedic co-op action tower defense. Grow a village, arm it with scarecrows, and hold the line against an endless payroll of grey-suit collectors. Alone, or with three friends.
The Steam capsule — shot in the game, with the same models you play with.

Objective
Your kingdom will fall. That is not the question.
The question is how long you keep it standing. CropCorp is a survival tower defense where you are not a cursor floating above the battlefield — you are down in the mud with a hoe, swinging at anything in a suit.
Between waves the world keeps going. Villagers need feeding, walls need mending, and trees need felling before the next lot arrive. Every building you own costs something to keep. How long you survive is your score.
Features
What you actually do
🌾
Farm a living economy
Chop trees into logs, mill logs into planks, and turn planks into walls that actually hold. Wood, stone, ore and food all feed the defence.
🎯
Fight in third person
Turrets alone lose. You alone lose. Both together wins — measured, not guessed. Swings land with knockback, hitstop and a camera that kicks.
🧱
Build walls you can vault
Barricades are tall enough to stop a collector and short enough to hop. Your own fortifications never box you in. Hopping the fence is a mobility perk.
👥
Co-op up to four
Shared kingdom, shared tech, personal hero progression. Someone farms, someone builds, someone is definitely not helping.
🏘️
Villagers with jobs
Assign the orders, they do the work. Injured villagers walk home, rest, and eat from the granary before they are any use to anyone.
💰
Nobody actually dies
Collectors pop into a shower of coins instead. It is family-friendly, and frankly it is what they would have wanted.
Field report
The balance is measured, not vibed
An autopilot hero plays the game with no human attached and reports back, so every balance claim has a number behind it. Against a 16-collector wave:

Neither pillar carries a run on its own, and playing both is clearly strongest — which is exactly the shape an action tower defense wants.

Heroes
Four faces, one skill tree
Pick a face, then build whatever you like. One open classless tree fed by universal XP — no locked lanes, no wrong answers.

The Warden
Grows it, guards it, hits it with a hoe when required.

The Captain
Stands where the wall used to be and refuses to move.

The Ranger
Solves problems from a comfortable distance.
🍲
The Steward
Keeps everyone fed, mended and mildly guilt-tripped.
Progress
Where the build actually is
No mystery, no vertical slice that does not exist. This is the real state of the project, updated straight from the development roadmap.
Phase 0 — Does it feel fun?
The smallest thing that can answer one question — is fighting while defending actually fun? Placeholder blocks only. No economy, no real art.
Complete
Phase 1 — The Village Layer
The wave ends and the world doesn't stop. Villagers, jobs, and the first production chain. This is the layer that turns a defence prototype into CropCorp.
In progress
Phase 1.5 — Chapters
Give the run a shape. Every measured run so far has been a flat line and then a cliff — nothing happens for fifteen days, then you die. Waves in chapters of ten fix that, and turn the demo into a complete arc rather than a slice that stops mid-sentence.
In progress
10 phases after that
Economy and upkeep, 360° defence, a procedural world, then heroes and progression.
The battle map has had a fault since the first tester looked at it from the top of the wheel: the ground past the valley's edge pulses between green and blue, worse the farther out you zoom, and the…
The owner's order for the shift was a question nobody could answer by playing: mimic one, two, three and four players on the economy alone, and say whether the extra people are bored. The game's…
The playtest runs on Steam: approved testers get a Steam key, the game installs from your library and updates itself. In exchange we ask for honest opinions and for keeping unreleased builds private. Tell us a little about yourself; every application is read by the developer, and approved testers get their key in a Discord message.
Recruitment
Be there when the first wave lands
The Steam page is open, so the best thing you can do today is wishlist it. Here: one email when there is something playable. That is the whole deal — no weekly newsletter, no marketing funnel, no nonsense.
