All Hail the King Machine

All Hail the King Machine Engine City is burning. The machines have risen and forged their own monarchy, bending their will before the Great Machine King. Many covet its power. Few dare to challenge it. You have. You have seized the Main Power Core, and with that single act, you’ve painted a target on your back. Entire factions want to see you fall. The machines are closing in. The clock is ticking. But you didn’t come this far to surrender. You will defend what you’ve conquered with everything you have, because this is no longer just a battle for control of a base — it’s a declaration. A test. A challenge thrown directly at the throne itself. The Machine King watches you. Patient. Curious. Calculating. How long can you hold out? How far are you willing to go to prove that you’re not just a commoner, but the rightful successor to the crown of steel? The throne awaits you. First, survive. Defend your control of the Power Core at all costs. Build your turret with any pieces you want(and have). Build rails(with money) and build your way across the stage. Check your stats and prepare the best strategy to survive wave after wave of enemies. They won't stop until they see you fall! Build the most powerful turret(or turrets) to survive the longest and beat your record! Build. Prepare, Survive. It sounds easier than it is... Our submission for the Gamedev.js Jam 2026.
