Tower 57 is a self-described "neo-retro" top-down shooter, developed by Pixwerk and published by 11 Bit Studios. It was released for PC through Steam on November 16th, 2017.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })It is set in a dieselpunk universe where humans live predominantly inside enormous mega towers to escape the pollution that rendered the rest of the planet uninhabitable. You control a team of three agents tasked with storming the titular Tower 57, whose unseen Supervisor had suddenly shut down Grutin Incorporated, the largest manufacturer in the world, whose continued output is critical to the stability of the society.Notably, the player controls one agent from a team a time; if they die, you are down to selecting one of the remaining two. The game must be started over from the checkpoint if all three are killed.

All There in the Manual: Whatever backstory the male characters have is only known through the game's Kickstarter, although the fact that these are all fabricants created by "Mother" for her amusement may render them false.

Artificial Limbs Are Stronger: Replacing agents' normal limbs with mechanical ones boosts their health and damage. However, these replacements can also be destroyed during combat in a way normal limbs cannot, leaving the agent crippled.

1-Up: Played with Amber Balls, which will resurrect already fallen characters if brought to a fortune teller, and are the only way of doing so. However, they can also be sold for a hefty amount of cash instead, thus letting you buy more upgrades and creating a risk-vs-reward dynamic.

Attack Drone: Flying drones are a frequent enemy, especially towards the end.
