Sentinels of Ceth

Description

Sentinels of Ceth is a top-down arcade shooter where the player controls the Sentinel. The goal is to protect 12 valuable gems of the goddess Ceth on a temple floor in a circle in the middle of the screen against the attacking Doltres forces with eight types of ships. Enemies will attack in waves trying to steal the gems and destroy the player's ship. When the ship is destroyed it will respawn after a little while, but if all the gems are stolen, the game is over. Ships that steal gems can still be shot down and at the start of the next wave all gems still on the screen are returned to the circle.

Gems that are carried away entirely can no longer be recovered and are not replaced at the start of the next wave. Between levels Blessings (points) can be spent on upgrades and weapons to gain an edge as future waves contain more and deadlier enemies. The goddess also rewards the ship's performance by dropping boons that can be picked up to gain a shield, provide invisibility or a helper orb.
