Looks like a well above average take on the tower defense genre. A lot of high quality TD's been coming out lately, though I'm quite looking forward to this one.

Isn't Magog some bad guy in Revelation?

The thing about td games is that there ARE a ton but few are actually fun to play. With this game I see the potential of having fun while following an in-depth story line. I have been playing td games for years. Normally on WarCraft 3 Custom games. This game will be a good addition to the iPhone and iPod Touch. I am definitely going to get this game.

Good job Conniption!!!!

TD is cool, but who needs 10 such games installed?
I have 1 full (I bought it) and 3-4 Lite versions.
I don't think I need more.
Hey, Conniption Entertainment, PLZ update Zombie Invasion! (I have it, yes)

Oh look another tower defense game, that sure is an original concept that is not played out at all.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for taking the time to reply! I think it's cool that you guys have a story to go along with the game. If you have a story, cut scenes are a good way of expressing it. I guess in my personal opinion, I'm not a huge fan of traditional story telling in games. But, that opinion is certainly not the norm, so I shouldn't "hold it against you"

I'm a game developer/designer myself and I've been very interested in this issue over the last year or two. I certainly know a lot people who love stories in games (including myself). But, in hindsight, I think it's always been that we loved the story and/or loved the game. The gameplay and story are usually very separated from interactive and non-interactive states (especially when using cut scenes and not a system like Half Life 2). So, again personally, I've decided to focus my development entirely on interactive gameplay and not traditional story telling (something more like CounterStrike in contrast to Halo).

Well, I should continue this thought in a blog post I'll send you an email if I do. Again, sorry if I was being too critical

Good luck on your game!

this looks more than a little bland compared to other recent TD offerings.

Looks like Tap Defense with a long overdue graphics upgrade. Actual gameplay graphics could stand to be a little more better to match the cinematics.
