About the Game

Most tower defense games ask you to place a tower and watch. Lords of Yeet! hands you a cursor and says "good luck."

Your mouse is the weapon. Grab an enemy mid-march, haul it into the air, and Yeet! it into the air, into an enemy, behind it, or just straight down hard enough that gravity finishes the job. Turns out most things don't survive being thrown. It's not subtle. It's extremely satisfying.

Grab. Lift. Yeet!

Every enemy that walks toward your castle is a projectile you haven't thrown yet. Line up a good angle and clear half a wave in one toss. Bonus points for style, extra bonus points for fall damage, and a very real achievement for racking up 100 gravity-assisted kills.

Build a proper defense (or panic, your choice)

Rile the troops to boost towers!  Archers, cannons, ice, venom, storm, and more! Upgrade them as the gold rolls in. Unlock the barracks and lasso enemies into recruits who fight for you. It's a real tower defense underneath all the throwing... it just falls apart in the best way once the big waves hit and you're flinging bodies with one hand and dropping meteors with the other.

Cursor spells

Every few levels you draft a new spell for your cursor: Earth Slam, Freeze, Chain Lightning, Tornado, Tsunami, Meteor Rain, Bomb Drop, and a Magnet that scoops up a swarm so you can Yeet! all of them at once. Aim it under your mouse and let it rip.

Better with friends!

Play solo or bring up to 8 players into one castle. More hands means more towers, more spells, and a whole lot more airborne enemies, but the waves scale up to match, so a full lobby is genuine pandemonium. You can also just bump into each other like bumper cars, which is not a feature so much as a lifestyle.

Run it back

Roguelite at heart. Level up, draft upgrades, push deeper. Seven bosses stand between you and the win, and clearing it unlocks Endless mode so you can find out exactly where your defense breaks.

Dress up your pointer

Earn achievements to unlock 50+ cursors, from a dragon claw to a rubber chicken to glowing cheese. Your cursor does most of the killing, so it might as well look ridiculous doing it.
