WOMBEX Games is set to release Bass Defense, a dynamic rhythm-based tower defense game, on August 19th, just in time for the Steam Rhythm Fest. Before the full release, players can dive into the game’s mechanics with a free prologue, Bass Defense: First Memorythms, available on July 22 during Steam’s Tower Defense Week.
Rhythm Meets Strategy
Bass Defense combines musical beat-based gameplay with strategic defense elements. Players must hit the correct buttons in time with the music to defeat enemies. The game offers three difficulty modes – easy, medium, and hard – that ramp up the rhythm’s speed, complexity, and enemy attack patterns.
Game Features
- 20 Unique Levels: Each level presents various challenges and visual styles.
- Three Difficulty Modes: Easy, medium, and hard to accommodate different skill levels.
- Rhythm-Sensitive Destructible Objects: Enhance the interactive experience.
- Easter Eggs and Secrets: Hidden throughout the game for players to discover.
Game Modes
- Soundwave Mode: Defend your base with upgradable power-ups and rhythmic precision. Overusing power-ups can disrupt your rhythm.
- Overcharge Mode: Charge your turrets in real-time to defend your base. This mode offers a closer view and a tower defense-focused experience.
- Fingerton Mode: Use only one finger in this hard mode to fend off a ton of speedy enemies.
Power-Ups and Upgrades
The final game features nine power-ups, with four available in the prologue. Players can earn energy capsules by using power-ups and upgrade their gear between maps and difficulties. The additional five power-ups are unlocked in the full game, offering even more strategic options.

The prologue, Bass Defense: First Memorythms, includes five of the 20 levels from the full game. Players can try the Soundwave mode, an action-packed game mode where they defend their base from waves of enemies using upgradable power-ups and their sense of rhythm.
