About the Game

Created and maintained by a single developer outside of full-time work. Progress may be gradual due to part-time development.

YOUR MISSION:

Uncover the mysteries behind this deadly new strain of virus, dubbed SCS-α (Synthetic Conversion Syndrome). Explore dark interiors, subterranean apertures and terrifying landscapes as you confront or flee from eldritch monsters, spawned from experiments on a plethora of organisms now reduced to hive creatures.

Disturbing revelations may reveal themselves as remnants of the Terran Coalition embark on a suicide mission to unveil the plot behind the madness. The future looks bleak as this virus sweeps across the cosmos and indiscriminately consumes all forms of life in it's path. With no end in sight, survival is not guaranteed...

Can you survive?

GAMEPLAY FEATURES

• Atmospheric fixed-camera survival

Experience a throwback-inspired style with carefully placed static camera angles that heighten tension and create a cinematic view of each encounter.

• Resource scavenging & light crafting

Search fallen enemies and storage areas for materials that can be used to craft ammunition and basic supplies needed to survive your escape.

• Dual-state movement

Move with classic tank-style navigation, then shift into an aiming stance that gives you more precision when facing threats.

• No HUD for maximum immersion

The interface stays out of the way to keep you focused on your surroundings and the dangers within them.

• A relentless pursuer

Something in the facility has locked onto your presence. Stay alert—running is often smarter than fighting.
