Definitely NOT a tower defense. Just putting towers that shoot in your game does not make it a TD. This is misleading.
I'm simply going by the information the developer gives out. I did try to make it clear by saying it has "elements of", didn't specifically claim it was a tower defense game.

Hey stan I'm one of the devs :) it's not a tower defense game primarily, but it has a lot of elements of TD in certain stages. For an example in invasion stages you have to defend the exit from invading swarms of enemies, there are multiple waves with subwaves, time limits, multiple turrets, unlocks and so on... And I think that with these elements I correctly described TD genre. I hope that i didn't mislead anyone with anything in the stores description. But remember that game is still in early access and were very open for suggestions, so if you'd like to add anything to the game's core, please let us know :D
