This is a phenomenal game, and one that I recommend to anyone who is interested in FPS games but is looking for a single player alternative. I love how trap laying is an integral part of the game, and that each encounter can be "solved" using various traps, tricks, and strategies. This is slowly becoming one of my favorite games, since each runthrough is a new and fun experience.

THIS GAME IS AMAZING! I really love the aesthetic, the sounds, the gameplay and everything that comes with it, the game is still in development, but the things that exist right now are amazing and the Devs really listen and think how to make this game more fun and enjoyable without losing sight of the things that make the game so great! To me it was worth every penny and time!

Sentry is this game that feels like the very first level of Halo Combat Evolved, and that's a good thing! I really grew to enjoy progressing and trying out defensive layouts. Although pushing enemies off the edge is my favourite by far, the ever changing levels will challenge your defined strategy and award your weapon skills + map knowledge. Don't get me wrong, respawning into an overwhelming amount of foes is an exhilarating experience, but I would enjoy more prep time before rounds, if only for the first wave at least. I feel this is also a tower defence and having time to plan things out before fighting is usually how this genre goes, especially in multiplayer coop! (which is said to come out soon!)

Game's neat, feels like it's out of the golden era of the Xbox 360 arcade in the best way. Co-op will improve on it a lot I think since there's often the need to cede a lot of defensible ground when you've got two lanes with little intersect open- and games are always just more fun with a buddy.

Guys would rather buy an early access game made by a tiny studio and complain about "game dead" on the steam forums than just wait for it to release :skull: Anyway, with my obvious snark aside, I think SENTRY is good. It's got promise, yes, it's a bit 'shallow' at the moment, but it is, again, made by a tiny team. Yes, to my knowledge, they are working on it. It just, you know, turns out that it's kinda difficult to make games. Despite the current length, I think it's fun, for what it's worth, and it seems to have a good future ahead of it. The combat is fast, responsive, and deadly. You die quickly if you aren't careful, but your SENTRY is quite capable of putting out the hurt if you have a steady aim. Guns all feel quite good to use, only one of them are questionable designed (the rifle has its magazine on the front!!! D:) but other than that, all the guns I've gotten feel capable of getting you to the end. I've beaten multiple runs with just the SMG and (name of explosive pistol) as my only two guns. This was, of course, backed up by the traps, but that goes without saying. Speaking of traps! Weirdly, this is one of the few games of its kind, a sanctum like orcs must die, Orcs must Sanctum like? Where I've looked at all the CC traps and thought "Man, I wish I could have them all." Slow plates are just, you know. Good. They slow things down. Shockwave plates have a short cooldown and briefly stun nearby enemies (it's capable of killing bugs instantly!), the Vertical Suspension plate just grabs the first poor bastard who walks over it and suspends them in a bubble. Good for evening out fire fights and buying you time! The traps are orcs-must-die-ish, if that wasn't obvious. Trap plates that go on the floor, wall mounted traps that trigger as enemies move past, that kind of thing. The slicer traps are REALLY fucking strong and I wouldn't be surprised if they got tweaked in the future. Music is good, too! I wish I had a soundtrack. But it feels sorta, sanctum-y in it's on way. It's good, it's funky, fits the flow of combat. Art style is good, too. i don't have much to say on this front, but it's nice. The main gameplay loop is: You have a ship on a starchart. You need to get to the end, where a jump gate is. Enemies are placed along routes, and in these routes are resources you can collect. You go from dot to dot, each move is a turn. Enough turns pass, an enemy Stalker shows up and starts chasing you down. These aren't lethal, but have pretty nasty enemies in them. Take too long, a missile shows up - if it hits you, game over. ANyway, once you bump into an enemy patrol (they dont' move, they're placed as blocks on routes.), your shpi is boarded in a random location and you have to defend the ship - clear all intruders and you may move on. Catch is you can only defend one place at a time. If there's 2 boarders, or more, you have to decide what area you want to lose, and what area you want to defend. In a Sub-System (area,level,whathaveyou.), this is the actual meat of the gameplay, the tower defence-shooting stuff. You start off with ab it of scrap, use it to set defences, get more from beating waves and scrap enemies drop. Most enemies are, seemingly, smart enough to either ignore you unless you're directly in their way, or you shoot them and they are capable of retaliating. You should generally assume they will beeline the exit. More often than not, your body is the last wall that stops them from getting through - careful though, there's only so many SENTRIES on a ship, lose them all and you game over. Sometimes it's better to let enemies get past, since it only damages the health of that area. If an area DOES get destroyed, it can be repaired later. This is expensive, though. If the intruders manage to get past enough sub-systems, they get to the ships core. The defence changes up a little. THe map is hard to defend with just the normal traps, too, so you'll be in for a rough time. Instead of getting to an exit, they get to the centre of the map and shoot the core. I think it's neat, could use some tweaks though. Runs are currently pretty short, likely to the 'lack of content' in the game. I suspect runs will get longer, and harder, but for now you've got a pretty good framework for what seems to be a really fun TD/FPS hybrid.
