Ultimul is a strategy action game where your goal is to defend your base from waves of enemies.
You can build many different types of defenses such as Turrets, Gamma Lasers, Airfields, and a lot more.
Furthermore, each unit can be upgraded allowing the player to put very unique strategies to use.
The game features online highscores for people to achieve their highest wave possible!

It is good classic gameplay with a little extra something. I love these type of games, and I really enjoyd this one! There isn't much polish to it, but the amount of options is fitting and it is possible to create a strategy that will help you a very long way, instead of having to redo your base for every single wave. I liked that. Oh, and feel free to challenge my high-score. :)

Standard tower defense game (and I don't mean it in a negative way). Not very original, but technically well made and with some nice features. Fun to play.

I still wonder how Chroelle made it to wave 43 though...

Now that we have a spoiler function we can actually share these informations if we want to. :)
I cant wait to see if your strategy works out. I had a good strategy that still needs some revision so perhaps I can do even better. :)

It seems my strategy wasn't that bad. I wasn't able to beat you, but at least I made a draw and survived 50 waves as well...

My strategy was to build four turrets in the second row and upgrade them to the highest regarding fire speed and range. Then I built four walls in the front row and upgraded them to the highest level. At last two plasma guns in the middle of the second row made my strategy complete (of course upgraded to the highest level regarding range and power).

I think there is still some room to improve, because I wasn't sure which buildings to choose for the back row. I think if I can find the right combination, I could beat the new highscore...

My new score yesterday of wave 49 was using a different strategy, but I had to quit the game, so I lead it die down and it ended with the level 50 boss, which erradicatd me. I switched tactics some way into the game, so I am going to try to play with the strategy chosen from the beginning when I come home today.
