Sanctum - Lets all be bads together \o/

[filingo]

sanctum is a pretty cool little game.

its a hybrid tower defense/fps and its quite good fun. the graphics are nice and clean, music and atomsphere are good and its ok in single and multiplayer.

not too much money, is good, whats not too like.

hit me or hasslefridge up on steem brohams

This game is quite a lot of fun. It's got some shitty singleplayer, as well as coop which is where the fun is. It doesn't have many maps, but seems to still be in development. They're allegedly working on 4 player coop now, which will be fucking epic. There's more weapons on the way as well (up from the assault rifle/sniper/freeze gun)

CHANGELOG 7395-> 7720

IMPORTANT!
The patch went live much faster than we anticipated, sorry for the delay.

Maps
New co-op only map: Facility!

Towers
Anti Air projectiles on client will no longer fly off into the sky.

lvl 2: 7 -> 8

lvl 4: 18 -> 21
lvl 5: 31 -> 39
lvl 6: 64 -> 80

Enemies

This means the enemies HP will scale up slightly faster

Weapons
Both the slow and freeze got diminishing returns in preparation of 4-player co-op.

Almost three years ago, when I was younger and, apparently, a great deal more insane, I casually compared a game to a vagina on this very site, dropping the simile in the middle of my copy like a disgusting landmine.

Consider this, then, me completing the set. Because Santum is a penis of a game. Which is to say, the harder it gets, the more interesting it is.

Confirming that I am a shit sniper. : >

This game really is fun though. Well worth the money. And, the text-to-speech engine is absolutely fun. I like to tell my friends, "AaaaAaaAaeeeeeEeEeeeEiiiiioooouuuuuuaaaauuuueeeee ee" just to hear what it does (but only once in a while, I don't spam it like a 'tard).

4-way coop on the way? Sounds like new maps in the works. Yay!
