About the Game

Snap the Sentinel is a first person shooter inspired by classic 2D run 'n' gun games. Use the Chameleon Blaster to shoot everything from boomerangs to bombs to lasers and much more at enemies, and launch them sky high with one shell of a kick!

Story

Fame, fortune, influence, you name it: Conrad Ocean had it all. He was once revered as the most powerful businessman under the sea. But that all changed long ago, when he was exiled to the surface world and forced to restart from scratch. Bitter and enraged, he concocted a plan to create a new fortune and take his revenge against the citizens of the seas he once called home. Now that he's rebuilt his riches, he's unleashed a plague of deadly robots bent on poisoning all the world's waters. Only one turtle is tough enough to face off against them: Snap the Sentinel! Snap sets off to rid his home of Ocean's mechanical scourge and set the world back on the right track.
