Quick Look: Sanctum

Woah

Edit: hah!

Heya! I was hoping for a QL

That's a nice hair texture you have there.

Oooh I was hoping they were going to check this one out.

Dammit!

QL QL QL QL QL QL QL QL Finally an hour of refreshing with some results!!

ITS AVATAR!

So it's a First Person STD? That don't sound good!

Never heard of it, but looks interesting.

oh yeah

Monday Quick Look? Do my eyes play a trick on me?

Looks awesome.

Oh boy! Tower defenzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

Its fun, co-op gets impossible fast though.

A surprisingly fun and highly replayable game...! Support this very promising independent studio and get this game if you feel like its your cup o' tea!

lol the blurb about the game under the video is really well written.....

This doesn't look bad actually.

Co-op seems interesting, but this game also seems like it would get pretty old pretty fast.  Maybe I'm just bored with tower defense in general.

Was wondering when they would do a QL of this. A friend and I played this game for a good solid week or two about a month ago. It's pretty fun, but it's really hard, even on the easy settings, and it does sadly get repetitive after a while.

WHAT IS UP DOG

Color me impressed, Ryan! That was a pretty good "Auf Wiedersehen!" Well done. :)

Ah, cool. Saw the Yogscast playing this before, seems pretty awesome. 

Definitely going to buy this right now.

Looks pretty good, but I think I'll save my money

A giant blue nod ball?Bradley needs to have the doctor check that.

Still no Battlezone 1998.

" Ah, cool. Saw the Yogscast playing this before, seems pretty awesome.  "

Watching this has made me imagine how bloody brilliant a mode like this would be in a Borderlands game.

Very cool, I'll definitely grab this if there's a sale.

Edit: Is there actually 4 player coop? It doesn't mention anything about it on the steam page.

Brad got quite a few facts wrong about this. The one that stuck out the most was "You can only use the secondary to the freezegun once per round" All ammo actually regenerates over time, using the secondary just means a longer regeneration period.

Music in this game is pretty awesome.

I really don't like tower defense games, but this actually looks cool.

Worst maze ever

There is no 4 player co-op in the game at the moment but the team has said that it is in production.

" Ah, cool. Saw the Yogscast playing this before, seems pretty awesome.  "

Is "Sanctum" the most generic video game name possible?

Sanctum: Origins: The Reckoning?

Looks kinda cool, maybe I'll get this in the summer, when I got some money to burn. Already got 250+games on steam over the last few years =( GOT NO CASH FOR FOOD!

this game makes me feel like puking for some reason..

Won't lie, the bit that appealed to me most was seeing all those numbers fly off dudes as they were shot. That tickled some part of my brain in Borderlands, and I want to see it in more first person games.

Just picked this up on Steam. Downloading now.

I think this game puts potential in the right area for games like this but I personally don't think this is amazing enough for the purchase(though I suppose if its not popular we might not see a similar game for a long time), This has much more potential in terms of what kinds of towers and and weapons could be used, not to mention the feel of the weapons and towers it has feels week in general.

So it's Toy Soldiers in the future?

I have to say, this genuinely looks fascinating :o

Dr. Watson, is that you?  

This is pretty much the one genre I don't see any appeal at all in. Especially not how it became it's own genre with lots of retail games. I mean, sure, I spent some time with the original StarCraft maps and Newgrounds flash tower defense games back in 1999-2000 or so, but as stand alone games? I grew bored with the ridiculously repetitive nature within weeks after learning about these games, how it's more alive than ever 12 years later is just ... strange. And how these games are about 1500 times more common than the classic base building RTSes they first appeared in is incomprehensible.
