Cannon Brawl brings 2D RTS to the PAX 10

The PAX 10 picked some excellent titles to show off right outside of PAX’s Indie Megabooth in Seattle last weekend. Of the indie games on display, a 2D real-time strategy game called Cannon Brawl was my favorite. Cannon Brawl (formerly called Dstroyd) is the product of four developers calling themselves Turtle Sandbox Games, and was a winner of the Activision Independent Games Competition last year, picking up $175,000 and a chance to be published with Activision.

The game looks very different from the last time we saw it – the graphics are much cleaner, the interface is simple and well-designed, and while the gameplay is fast and complicated Cannon Brawl does a great job of mixing quick moves with solid and interesting strategical choices. The game’s not done yet, but it’s coming together very well. Odds are that we’ll be seeing this game a lot more in the future.Continue reading Cannon Brawl brings 2D RTS to the PAX 10Cannon Brawl brings 2D RTS to the PAX 10 originally appeared on Joystiq on Thu, 06 Sep 2012 23:59:00 EST.
