SPACEWIRE TRANSMISSION FROM GAMESCOM

Futuremark Games Studio and Headup Games proudly presented Unstoppable Gorg, a thrilling new space defense game, to assembled journalists at the Gamescom international games fair last week. For the world's press unable to attend, the studio has declassified and published new screenshots and gameplay details demonstrating the game's innovative mechanics. \n\nUnstoppable Gorg is a thrilling space defense game inspired by vintage sci-fi films from the 1940s and 50s. The game builds on the core tower defense mechanics that fans love while breaking the genre's conventions to create a more interactive and exciting experience. \n\nUnique orbital layout \nUnstoppable Gorg does away with the XY grid layout used in other tower defense games. Instead, a level typically has a space station in the middle surrounded by a number of orbital rings on which you place your satellites. This orbital layout is unique to Unstoppable Gorg. \n\nYou can move your towers \nUnlike other tower defense games, in Unstoppable Gorg you can move your satellites even after you place them by rotating the orbits. This ability lets you react to each new wave, repositioning each ring of satellites to create the best defense against each attack. Rotating an orbit is as easy as dragging your mouse or finger and makes the game much more interactive than other tower defense games.\n\nPREPARING FOR INVASION - NEW DEV DIARY \n\nFuturemark Games Studio has started a series of dev diary postings on the Unstoppable Gorg forum. The first in the series covers preparing for Gamescom, key design decisions and screenshots taken from the Gamescom demo. Check back regularly to follow the game's development, interact with the devs and see the latest screens, concept art and more. http://bit.ly/preparingforinvasion \n\nWIN AN UNSTOPPABLE GORG POSTER SIGNED BY THE DEV TEAM \n\nFuturemark Games Studio is giving away a signed print of its awesome Gamescom poster on the Unstoppable Gorg Facebook page.
