Message from the Development Team

Thank you for always playing Circular Defense!!

We sincerely apologize for the lack of updates over the past year since the previous release.

About This Update

We are finally able to deliver the long-awaited Lab screen update that we previously announced.

The enhancement system has been changed from a simple level-up format to a skill tree-style system, allowing players to think more strategically about how to upgrade their turrets for each stage.

We have also added a new character, Chief Nanoshita, who will appear in the Lab and event dialogues. We hope you’ll come to like her as much as Secretary as well.

Regarding Save Data Reset

Due to changes in the turret enhancement system and related data structures, save data will be reset upon launching the game after updating to Version 0.2.0.

Players will need to start a new game after the update. We appreciate your understanding.

※ This does not affect achievements.

Future Update Plans

We are currently refining all stages in line with the updated Lab system. ※ This update includes adjustments for some stages only.

The next update is scheduled for late April, and is planned to include:

• Stage refinements

• Improved control over when event dialogues trigger during stage progression

• Additional behavior when building turrets

※ Update contents are subject to change.

Thank you for your continued support of Circular Defense!!
