Gems & Tower Skills
There are currently 5 types of gems in SpaceY 2025 with only 3 of them dropping/equipable at this time. Each gem contains a faint elemental energy and can be used for embedding or crafting (in the future).
Each Gem is a 1 time Consumable Item that lasts the duration of the frontline attempt or until a new gem is equipped.

Equipping/Unequipping Gems: Players may equip/unequip the gems they have in their inventory by simply clicking on the + or - inside the gem tab next to the tower profile. When the player clicks on the + sign, a drop down menu showcasing the players current gem inventory will appear and the player may select the gem they wish to equip. Unequipping a gem consists of clicking on the - next to the gem currently equipped (Please note that unequipping a gem will result in a loss of that gems effects on the tower).

System towers are unable to be equipped with any gems.
Gem Drop Rate:
Players have a chance of earning Gems after defeating the Boss of every 10th wave. The drop rate is random and the difficulty setting will not increase the drop rate. Players will be able to see what types of gems they received at the end of each Frontline attempt.

Below are the two types of gems that will be available in the future.
