Aether Core is a tower defense where towers do nothing alone.

To make a tower shoot, you drag a cable from your castle to it.

No cable — no attack. Simple.

But you only have limited energy. You can't power everything.

During waves, you reroute cables in real time:

cut power from one tower, give it to another, add a fire

modifier where you need it most. Every decision costs energy.

Every disconnect refunds it instantly.

The game is not about building the perfect setup.

It's about fixing your mistakes while enemies are already there.
