In this interview, 4 Guys with Quarters talked about Clapfoot’s first Xbox/PC release – “Fortified” – with 3D Artist and Game Designer Matthew Rigg! This game JUST released last week on Xbox Live and 4 Guys have been loving it! Inferno217 saw it at PAX East 2015 and fell in love with this 3rd-person defense shooter based in the 1950s, but the game has improved exponentially since he saw it then. Watch this informative interview and check out some streams/videos/screen grabs to see if defending the world from martian robot invasion is right for you!
Stop a Martian invasion of earth in the 1950's with some friends with this awesome freebie. Grab the game now and it will be yours to keep forever on Steam, or at least until the inevitable Martian invasion begins.
Console Obsession says: "Fortified is a game that takes inspiration from a number of things, including third person action, tower defense and 1950s sci fi films. With intense action, pick-up-and-play controls, and a pleasing level of strategic depth, it’s certainly a game that does a number of things right."
Gamespot:
The best part about Fortified is its pulp sci-fi personality. This mash-up of the tower defense and third-person shooter genres plays like the film Mars Attacks! brought to life, complete with Cold War-era alien goons with fish bowls on top of their heads and whirring flying saucers of the sort that made the Earth stand still once upon a time. Sadly, the worst part about Fortified is that this personality is its best part. Gameplay takes a backseat to the congenial story and setting about an alien invasion at around the same point in history when Marty McFly took his mother to the prom. The limited number of bad guys, maps, and overall fresh ideas makes this shoot-em-up enjoyable only in quick, limited doses.
