About the Game

Endothermic is a 4 player online co-op horror game where you and your outpost crew must navigate through a frozen wasteland seething with frostbitten creatures. A supernatural being with heat-sensing abilities hunts you down. Survival wont be easy..

You must stick together and be useful to your team or you might be easy pickings. You are the prey but don't let that stop you from getting the job done.

  • Immersion First: With a focus on audio and a diegetic approach to HUD and Inventory, Endothermic focuses on world interaction.

  • Co-op multiplayer: Play alone or with a crew of up to 4 players.

  • Team Communication: 3D voice chat (VOIP) helps ground each player in the world, with realistic reverb, falloff and sound propagation. Proximity text chat can also be used in addition or as a replacement for VOIP

  • Distinctive monsters and Factions: The frozen wasteland seethes with many different types of creatures and supernatural entities but also contains Factions like the cultic "Embracers" who have embraced the cold and abandoned the ways of the old world. Each monster has it's own behavior type and abilities. You must learn the ins and outs of each of the once-human "Fimbuled" (frostbitten and cursed inhabitants of Valgrind). Learn their abilities and weaknesses and don't become a Fimbuled yourself.

  • Extremely ominous locations: Each location brings a new feeling. Some maps might require more planning, others require different playstyles. With random events the map can change drastically, Ultimately flipping the board for you and your teammates. It will take a lot of hard work, communication and brains to survive. 

  • Satisfying Combat: From rifles to bows, makeshift melee weapons to throwables, Endothermic has lots of ways of fighting your way to survival. Weapons can be found throughout each map and upgraded.
