Savage Moon is tower defence title News

News by Tom Bramwell

21 August, 2008

Sony has announced a new PSN game called Savage Moon from developer FluffyLogic.

It's a single-player title due out in November, apparently, in which players have to fend off "gigantic, ravenous space bugs" by building lunar defences.

It's "classic tower strategy gameplay" in outer space, in other words, with players positioning their defences to beat the bugs.

Doing this will convert "victory points" into new weapons, according to Sony's description as part of its massive PSN games fact sheet.

According to an update on the official PlayStation website, weapons include machine guns and a "Chaos Tower", and will be upgradeable.

And according to the screenshots we stole from there, it all looks a bit plasticky and Starship Troopers.

Savage Moon stirred up a bit of excitement pre-Leipzig when it was spotted on the German ratings board website, but no, it's not the game the BBC bloke keeps banging on about.

PixelJunk Monsters advanced!
Looks great, but Fat Princess is the one for me still.

It looks fun.

Viewing the invasion in free 3D cam is a nice plus to a tower defense.

Liked Pixeljunk Monsters a lot and am sure will like this.

This hasn't really been confirmed by anybody, but it probably is Heavy Rain.

Or it could be that the BBC bloke was just high.

I bloody love tower defence games, so this is most welcome in my book. If I had a book that I wrote things I wanted in, which I don't.

Doesn't hurt that it looks brilliant too - I'm used to 2D flash games and Pixeljunk Monsters. Not that visuals detract from the fun of having stupidly powerful guns mow down monsters as you sit back and laugh.

Is it just me or does the art actually seem to be inspired by Command & Conquer?
