About the Game
Sir, We Have an Orc Problem is a short tower defense game with incremental-style meta-progression.
A bazillion orcs
Defend your base against an overwhelming number of orcs. They're coming with tens of thousands of troops to overrun you. Greet them with even more bullets, bombs and lasers!
Massive upgrade tree
Use resources earned from every run, won or lost, to unlock and upgrade powerful turrets. Every upgrade brings you closer to defeating the horde.
Active abilities
Launch strafing runs, orbital lasers and even nukes to slaughter masses of orcs and survive critical situations.

- Added a setting with an extra slider for missile sound volume

Surrendering a level won't give you the flat bonus resources from the upgrade "Bonus Resources" anymore. You need to actually finish (lose or survive) the level to get them. The scaling bonus resources from "Bonus Resources 2" are still added even when surrendering.
