Sassy Archer - HTML5 Game - Construct 3
Welcome to Sassy Archer – Survive, Upgrade, and Conquer!
Experience an addictive tower defense survival game where you control a skilled archer defending against endless waves of enemies!
Survive for 15 minutes against increasingly difficult enemy waves. Your archer automatically shoots arrows at approaching enemies while you strategically collect XP gems and gold coins to level up and become more powerful.
Each level-up lets you choose from powerful upgrades: increase your damage, attack speed, add poison effects, pierce through multiple enemies, or fire multiple arrows at once! The longer you survive, the stronger you become – but so do the enemies!
Draw your bow. Aim true. Survive the onslaught!
