Sentinel Is Tower Defence In A Music Sequencer


I do like a good music-game hybrid thing. I also rather enjoy tower defence. Both of these things bode well for the appreciation of musical tower-defence game Sentinel, "which mixes strategic gameplay with a dynamic music system," as solo developer Matthew Brown explained. He went on to expand on this by saying: "The game takes place on a sequencer-like grid. As you add defenses, collect resources and destroy enemies, musical elements are triggered in time to the backing music."

Interesting, eh? More details below.

Sentinel is out now on Humble Store.

For the sake of clarity, The Sentinel is this timeless Crammond masterwork, of course, and has been out since 1986.
