Dark Adaption is a 5 player co-op scifi horror game.
You and your team board a mining ship in distress, to identify and capture the alien organism, that has entered the ship, and has brought all mining operations to a halt.
You need to work together to identify the alien's unique traits, so that you can produce an effective tranquilizer and capture the alien.
You are a part of SHO - Space Hauler Operations: A task force brought to life by the Big 4 - the four big asteroid mining cooperations. As part of SHO, your job is to ensure the safety of all mining operations.
Use the tools your advanced tech suite and HUD provide to your advantage, manage resources like O2 and energy, and hack into surveillance cameras of the mining ship, to track down the alien organism, and identify it's unique combination of traits.

- Coop Multiplayer: Work together with your crew mates to get rid of the alien intruder.
- Realistic Space Environment: Manage your oxygen supply, your battery, and use all the advanced tech of your space suite to your advantage.
- Clever Alien Opponent: The alien uses a custom Utility AI, making it's decisions interesting and challenging. It has several behaviours and
choses the most optimal one based on 8 different stats. - Track & Observe: Track the alien down, observe it's behaviour, and find clues that hint at it's traits. When you have enough information,
synthesize a tranquilizer - if you identified the correct traits, the alien will be paralyzed and you can capture it. Using the wrong tranquilizer will
increase it's rage, and make any further attempts more challenging!
