Last Fuse

Last Fuse is a tower defense where you construct a nuclear bomb in the middle of a city, while defending it from invasion. (What could go wrong?)

The bomb generates energy to power your defenses, but tapping into it raises its temperature, bringing you closer to meltdown. The game tempts you with risk-reward mechanics like Overdrive, which boosts energy but rapidly increases heat. Push too hard? Kaboom.

The bomb is your greatest asset and your greatest threat.

Every decision shapes your survival. Will you take the risk for extra materials, faster turrets, or more workers—but at the cost of rising heat, or play it safe? Choose wisely!

Submitted for Brackeys Game Jam 2025.1, theme "Nothing can go wrong". Check out my design process here!

I worked really hard on this game and am considering to work on it after the jam if there is interest. It may have only been a week, but I have so many ideas for it - Maybe the bomb is alive and has personality, bomb types, bomb upgrade paths, permanent tech tree, different map layouts, turret abilities (frost, fire).
