Tower Defense + Twitter = Tweet Defense

I don't know if this is a great idea or an invitation to clog up your Twitter feed with inanity (go ahead, hit me with your best shot in the comments on that open invitation), but Tweet Defense takes the usual tower defense game to a new "social" level by upgrading your towers based on how much you tweet. What's the worst that could happen, right? Slidetoplay says it'll debut at $.99, but what price could you put on leveling up via Twitter, really?"

Yeah, it's sufficient enough to have it in the tags, but generally if you're reading something, you don't expect to be looking in the tags for the other part of the story. To be honest, I have never even noticed the "filed under" part of the page. Ah wells, I just found it a bit odd. Not really a problem :p

Judging by the tags, I'm guessing this is an iPhone OS game :p Cause it doesn't say it in the article

I accuse you of not reading the whole page, then I don't even read your whole comment!

:/


Having said all that...

Aren't the tags enough? It's as if you're doubting it, when really there's no reason to.

Hmm. I should write a game called TUAW Defense, that upgrades towers based on how many comments you make on TUAW. On second thought, maybe I should call it TUAW Offense.

AKA Tuaw Spamfense? Haha. I'm curious though what this idea evolves or rather devolves into.

Seems like you would have to tweet a whole lot to do make this playable. Also, couldn't you just have an automated account to post for you so you can level up real fast? Or is this a advertise this game to level up via your twitter feed?

Inanity is a perfectly correct and valid description for the twitter posts that would come as a result of this game.

Anyone who doesn't know that needs to go back to high-school English class.
