Trident's Wake

About

Trident's Wake is a fast-paced co-op shooter where you and a friend take control of pilots battling through waves of enemies in a gritty sci-fi setting. Each character has distinct weapons and abilities that grow through a simple but satisfying upgrade tree. The twin-stick controls emphasize quick movement and targeting, with waves that mix melee swarms and bullet-sponge bosses. Missions range from base defense to timed escapes, all set against a backdrop of crumbling space stations and derelict ships. The game’s challenge lies in balancing offense and defense while managing limited resources. Community data shows most players miss the "No Sentinel Left Behind" achievement, a 2.1% unlock rate that hints at late-game secrets. With 26 total achievements and support for both solo and online co-op, it offers solid replayability without overwhelming complexity. Released in 2019, it remains a niche pick for shooter fans looking for tight mechanics and a bit of sci-fi charm.
