Somnabulist Games has revealed its latest title, the spacefaring real-time strategy game Astra Sentinel. In Astra Sentinel, players must defend planetary systems from endless hordes of aliens. Reconquer planets, build on their surface and prepare to counterattack. Will you be able to recover control of the galaxy?
The official blurb on the game says ‘’Astra Sentinel is a single-player RTS in which you will be able to test your skills as a strategist and defend humanity from extinction. When you start a game you will have to regain control of the infected planets in the solar system. Once you have colonized a planet, build on its surface by switching from planetary to space view without loading screens. Enjoy an epic campaign mode or prove your worth in the infinitely replayable skirmish mode.’’
