StormWinds 1.5 is a huge upgrade made to the original StormWinds. Although the first game did fairly well, a lot of suggestions were brought and I felt like we could do better. This then, is the result of hundreds of user comments and reviews. I think it's a big step up, and I hope you all enjoy it!


StormWinds places the player in a steampunk setting, facing a massive invasion of airships and other flying contraptions. A blend between a tower defense game and a shooter, you must choose your defenses then use them personally to gain victory.


This game is by far Hero Interactive's largest to date- over 10 people had a hand in the game at some stage in development.


We've also upped what is offered to those who purchase the extra content for $5 USD. Players who make the purchase now get access to 2 new campaigns, new weapons, new enemies, a new boss, new challenge missions (as they come out), and cheat codes. In addition, when the beta of Bubble Tanks 2 is released, extra content purchasers will be invited to join in!


A big thank you to everyone who supported the game, gave great feedback, and helped to bring this better version online!

It's great to be able to review something right after another entry in the series! I believe this was in fact better. It wasn't as much of a problem with how you had to power up that one weapon. You get easier weapons right at the beginning. While I'm still not sure of the actual limits of this, I appreciate the whole thing. The music is even better.

I don't think the original one had sound effects. These work much better. Even the way the enemies explode is cooler. 1.5 is kind of a weird title. I guess it's just because it's that similar to the first game, but still better.

why is it so laggy

I found this game to be a little bit frustrating. The controls are clumsy and the animation is.. ok. Not a bad game as such.

decoy tower

how does the decoy tower level up?

Best Game Ever

Simply amazing! Genius blend of tower defence and shooter with good background music and top notch 2D graphics. Best game i've ever played
