Elite Beat Agents developer to release tower defense game for mobile devices

Elite Beat Agents developer Inis will release a new tower defense game for mobile devices called Eden to Green,Venture Beat reports.

Speaking with the publication, chief creative officer Keiichi Yano said that unlike other tower defense games, players will not just protect their territory, but expand it. The goal is for players to cover the game's world with green.

"You want to spread the green — not just to restore the beauty — but that's what gives you the energy to plant more and better plants," Yano said. "And with a turn-based system we can give the casual player a chance to think about their move and what they want to do and how they want to plan it."

A global launch date has not yet been announced, though Eden to Green is already available for iOS and Android in Canada. Zynga will publish the game.
