Defense Grid: The Awakening Announced

This press release announces plans to unveil Defense Grid: The Awakening
to the masses at this weekend's Penny Arcade Expo. Defense Grid, described as "a
unique spin on tower defense gameplay," is planned for retail release this
November, though the game's unique qualities are not that apparent from what we
read. It does sound like it will exceed the typical TD game in polish, and
perhaps balance, as word is: "Defense Grid: The Awakening has 20 unique
environments, each with a different placement of roads, tower build locations,
and open areas to plan a strategy around. Each level encourages a different
strategy, such as trying to find an optimal path to redirect enemies, making the
best use of limited space, and breaking up individual enemy waves to avoid being
overwhelmed, all while planning ahead for future waves." There are two
screenshots on
AtomicGamer.
