Spaceship Sentinel

Starship Sentinel is a small Java game created by a team of 3 first year Informatics students while learning Java in parallel.

This is a single- or a multiplayer game where the shared goal of players is to defend the mothership located in the center of the map from waves of monsters. The players are spawned into the world at random places. After the wave ends, the mothership will regenerate a bit.

If the mothership is destroyed, all players instantly lose. If the player dies, they turn into ghost and will become spectators - unable to interact with the world until the next wave. If all players become ghosts - the game is over as well. 

In order to defend the base, players can upgrade their weapons and use different items, such as turrets and bots,  which require certain resources to purchace. Players will be able to find them in gameworld or get them from killing enemies.

For game to function, at least one server must be running. Currently, it is possible to play through University server but if it goes down, you can start your own local server to play singleplayer (since the game expects it to be on localhost).

So now it's YOUR turn to try out our new game (and if you want to know more - there is a Readme file in the game archive)

PSA: to exit the game, use "Exit" button in the menu (Esc), otherwise process won't kill itself properly
