For those that don't know what Sev Zero is...

via amazon.com

Sev Zero is available exclusively on Amazon Fire TV. Sev Zero requires a compatible game controller. The game is free with the purchase of an Amazon Fire Game Controller.

Sev Zero is a new game from Amazon Game Studios that combines fast-action shooter mayhem with tower defense-style strategic base building. Wield an expansive arsenal of firepower across 15 levels to hold off the alien onslaught that's threatening you and the entire planet. In Sev Zero, players can jump between environments - start in tower defense mode to build out towers and assess the surroundings, then beam down to shooter mode for face-to-face combat.

The Story

Earth is threatened by an alien species, the Ne'ahtu. Early in the twenty second century, the Ne'ahtu infected Earth's energy grid with a computer virus that disabled the planet's defenses. Before the Ne'ahtu could strike, computer prodigy Amy Ramanujan neutralized the alien computer virus and saved the planet. Now, the Ne'ahtu are back and Dr. Ramanujan is trying to prevent another all-out invasion of Earth. Switching between towers (to launch missiles and mortars) and face-to-face combat (to attack with machine guns), the player's mission is to join Dr. Ramanujan and defend Earth from the Ne'ahtu.

Dual Mode Gameplay

Bring friends and family into the action with the Sev Zero companion tablet app, Sev Zero: Air Support for Kindle Fire. With this multi-player, multi-screen experience, a friend can help you repel the invasion by firing missiles, freezing enemies, and deploying explosive decoys from their Kindle Fire tablet while playing alongside the game on Amazon Fire TV. Download Sev Zero: Air Support to your Kindle Fire tablet now.

Is this what they're doing with Double Helix and all those other devs they picked up?

this is already out.  it comes free with your purchase of a fireTV controller.  based on the timing of the double helix purchase and this i doubt they were involved.  i'm not seeing any specific mention of developers other than "amazon games studios" though so maybe.

 

for reference of my OP,.. after the way mobiles have crushed handhelds i'm a bit curious to see how these tv top devices do so i was poking around today.  it kills me inside a bit to see comment like "amazing graphics" in the reviews of the game. 



It looks awful imo, not to mention it seems it's far from a technical marvel after reading the DF article on Fire TV.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Not from what I could see. It's just another sci-fi shooter in a gaming landscape filled to the brim with sci-fi shooters.

Games are just a bolt on to the thing.
"great for gaming, too" lol, almost sounds like another console on the market which is aimed for the tv audience but wants to cash in on games at the same time.



Looks like a typical mobile shooter. No thanks. The only mobile games that get pupular are those moronic free to play stuff.



This game looks like it was released on Android, then proceeded to port it to consoles with a HD remaster thing.



This game as much of a system seller as Ryse Son of Rome!
