How it feels

A tense, exploratory sci-fi horror action game with pixel graphics and a sense of dread as you investigate an uncharted planet.

What players say

Players praise the exploration and upgrade system where abilities permanently shrink your health bar, forcing careful choices. They split on the controls, which some call janky, and many find enemies too spongy. The game is short and designed for multiple runs, but some feel the price is steep.
