Independent game studio · Cheltenham, UK
Web Level Up is a small studio making games in Unreal Engine 5. Our first is CropCorp — a comedic co-op action tower defense where four farmers defend a harvest from the taxman. It is in development, and we are building it in the open.
Now in development
Farm it. Fortify it. The Taxman is coming. Grow a harvest by day, then defend it by night with one to four players, upgradeable defences and a collector force that does not care how hard you worked.
Farm it. Fortify it. The Taxman is coming.
A day/night loop with real stakes: plant, harvest and build while the sun is up, then hold the granary when the collectors arrive. Play solo or bring three friends — every skill stays open to everyone, so your class is a starting point, not a cage.
How we work
Four things we have decided to be stubborn about, because they are the reason the games end up the way they do.
Designed for a sofa or a Discord call. Every system is built to be more fun with someone else in it, and still work alone.
Deep enough to reward planning, daft enough that losing is a story. Tax collectors are a mechanic and a punchline.
Prototype screenshots, dead ends and rewrites all go in the devlog. Nothing waits for a trailer to look finished.
No release dates until they are real. The roadmap moves when the build moves, and we would rather show than promise.
From the devlog
Progress, problems and the occasional thing that worked first time.
CropCorp gets its own site, its own roadmap and its own devlog. That is where the screenshots land first.
