What happens when you mix social networking with zombies? Aside from an awkward situation, you would also have Tweet Defense, the new tower defense games from the crew over at Promethium Marketing. You may recognize the crew over at Promethium as the former MS Gamerscoreblog crew, namely Tony Hynes, Chris Paladino, and Nelson Rodriguez. The game will make its debut on the App store next month at an introductory price of $0.99 but it won't stay that cheap forever.. Everything that you would expect from a tower defense game is here: multiple levels, multiple enemy types, upgrade-able towers and weapons, plus some new additions to make it stand out from the rest. The game will incorporate your Twitter account in order to give you a competitive edge against the zombie hordes and your competition on the leaderboards. Increased activity on your registered Twitter account will result in powerful boosts to your towers. The more you Tweet, the stronger you get. Tweet Defense will also include its own list of achievements in order to give you something to work towards. The official site has been launched over at TweetDefense.com where you can read all about the game. Look for more information on the game soon...
