Gameplay

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.

Structures

Energy nodes extract energy from the threads that make up the world. At low numbers, each node collects 1.5 energy per second, but as you build more, the return per node is reduced. If you lose all of your Energy Nodes, you lose the match. Cost: 50 Energy

Health: 5 HP

Regen: 1 HP/s



Turrets shoot at the closest enemy structure, dealing 1 damage per second. They are more effective the closer they are to the target, as their projectiles take less time to arrive. Cost: 100 Energy

Health: 20 HP

Regen: 1 HP/s



Black Holes are a defensive structure. Turrets won't target them directly, but they can absorb projectiles with their gravitational pull, protecting nearby structures. A Black Hole's gravitational pull can be temporarily weakened if it absorbs too many projectiles, but it can only be completely destroyed by a Sentinel or Missile Launcher. Cost: 150 Energy

Health: 60 HP

Regen: 2 HP/s



Sentinels are used to stake out territory. They activate once they reach full health, destroying any enemy structures nearby and ensuring that the enemy cannot build within their range. Cost: 50 Energy

Health: 15 HP

Regen: 1 HP/s



Missile Launchers lock onto the closest enemy target when they are built. Once they reach full health, they launch themselves at the target, destroying everything nearby. Cost: 400 Energy

Health: 20 HP

Regen: 1 HP/s
