Evaluation

OTTTD launched on August 6, 2014 and received a handful of bug fix and feature patches in the weeks immediately following release. Both DLC items (the Deluxe Edition and OTT Edition packs) shipped on August 7, 2014 — the day after launch. The last meaningful update to the game itself was a small Steam patch on May 7, 2019, which added a fast-forward feature and new difficulty modes to match the simultaneous Nintendo Switch release. The developer noted at that time that the team was focused on other projects (Moving Out and No Way Home). Since May 2019, there have been no further updates, patches, or announcements related to OTTTD itself. Subsequent news posts on the OTTTD Steam page (in 2020 and 2023) are promotional announcements for SMG Studio's other games, not OTTTD content. All DLC has been released, no future content has been announced, and the developer has clearly moved on to other titles. The store description's reference to a "Ridiculously definitive edition" is marketing language for the PC release rather than a formal product designation. OTTTD is a complete, finished game.
Evidence
Developer released OTTTD on Nintendo Switch and pushed a small Steam update adding fast-forward and new difficulty options. Developer noted the team was now focused on Moving Out and No Way Home, signalling a wind-down of OTTTD support.

About this game

Lock, load and let the gibs fly in OTTTD, a Tower Defence/RTS game with RPG elements that pits you against some of the weirdest creatures in the multiverse.

OTTTD stands for Over The Top Tower Defence, and you'll see why when you're blasting 9 kinds of hell out of a Cactus Ghost that's making a beeline for your battlefield HQ. You play as a commander for HEROCORP™, the 4th largest private military organization in the galaxy. A long period of peace has left the company coffers a little bare so the science division developed Trans-Dimensional Rifts, opening up lucrative opportunities for war in other universes. It's like Starship Troopers meets Stargate meets Spaceballs, with way more explosions!

Features


• Ridiculously definitive edition
Prepare your eyes and ears for incredible deluxe-ness! Featuring crisper sound and high resolution graphics, the PC release of OTTTD will leave you feeling like you've actually stepped into an alternate universe and started blasting everything to smithereens.

• Deep RPG Mechanics
OTTTD lets you choose from 7 hero classes to make up your squad of 3 battlefield employees. The more action they see the more XP they earn, giving you the chance to level them up through custom skill trees, including powerful combat abilities to unleash during the fight.
• 30+ active abilities
• 40+ passive skills
• 30+ equippable weapons
• multiple armor options with stats to suit your play-style

• Weapons! Weapons! WEAPONS!
With 12 tower types to build and 6 different firearm classes, HEROCORP™ has got the hardware to ensure you can wreak havoc in your own personal style.

• Disgustingly varied foes
The range of enemies in OTTTD is wide enough to soothe even the itchiest trigger finger. Floating eyeballs? Check. Gunclams? You know it. Giant armored Wartoises? Of course. You'll even go toe to fin with a giant flying shark, and show the mythological Kraken who's boss!

The Story
The year is 2136. You work for HEROCORP™, the universe’s 4th largest private military force. Your job is to “preemptively defend” the Earth against alien dimensions. As long as you complete the missions under budget and fill out the TPS reports in triplicate, everything goes smoothly.

Is pre-emptively defending Earth ethical? Who cares when the money’s good!

Deluxe Edition




HEROCORP understands the needs of the more discerning battle commander, hence the Deluxe Edition of OTTTD. In addition to everything in the pre-order, you'll get the Deluxo weapon and armor sets. Recently developed by our Lab Division, the Deluxo Range gets more powerful each time your soldier levels up, making it worth its weight in requisition forms. We'll also throw in a Deluxe Wallet, with 69,000 coins and 11 medals to buy yourself something nice.

• Dexluso Armour - Armour that gets stronger as you get stronger
• Dexluso Gun - Gun that gets stronger as you get stronger
• Deluxe Wallet - 69,000 starter coins and 11 starter medals

OTT Edition



In addition to everything in the Deluxe Edition, the OTT edition comes with rare Cheese Armor set forged by our Dairy Division, which helps your soldiers get more XP and coins on the battlefield.

You will also receive these bad boys:
• An Art Book PDF, full of concept sketches plus more visual treats.
• OTTTD poster artwork. Looks amazing on 100% of walls.
• 3D Printer files for the HEROCORP soldiers, so you can battle command IRL.
• An OTT Wallet stuffed with 101,010 coins and 42 medals, to give you the financial edge on your enemies."
• Bonus Armour - “Vintage Combat Cheddar” - 20% XP bonus and 5% coin bonus
