Description

Star-Twine is a real-time strategy game in which you control a point of light created by a dying star. Battles unfold on sprawling three-dimensional maps where you collect energy and build structures to attack your opponent. Chill out to the atmospheric visuals and soundtrack as you plan your next move. Star-Twine is a game of positioning and timing. Energy Nodes are used to collect resources, Turrets fire at the enemy, Black Holes absorb nearby projectiles, Sentinels stake out territory and Missile Launchers deal massive damage to an area. Through building these simple structures, many different strategies emerge.
