‘Revolutionary’ Unstoppable Gorg tower defence gameplay unveiled

Futuremark has unveiled Unstoppable Gorg gameplay footage for the first time. Any good? It’s fair to say it puts a spin on classic tower defense gameplay…

Futuremark, makers of the world’s favourite 3D benchmarking software, 3D Marks, have unveiled the first gameplay footage of their forthcoming tower defence game, Unstoppable Gorg, labelling it ‘revolutionary’.

Putting a twist on the classic ‘fixed tower’ approach to the genre, Unstoppable Gorg introduces the ability to twist and spin tower locations on an orbital path. The retro 1950′s B-movie themed puzzler is a far cry from Futuremark’s first foray into PC gaming, Shattered Horizon, a graphically demanding zero-G first person shooter.
