Did you like Phasmaphobia but thought “maaan this would be cooler if it was in space, and it was kinda like Alien”? Enter Species: Unknown, a 1-4 player co-op survival horror where you enter a derelict ship, investigate the carnage, discover what alien murdered everything, and then try to get out alive.
This one is getting some praise and some momentum, just hitting 250K players. I’m definitely going to grab this when pay day rolls around with some friends - it looks great!
Day 6! Love these indie discovery posts. Species: Unknown looks intriguing — added to my watch list.
Gave the demo a try a hot minute ago. It was very fun.
They absolutely deserve the support.
Proximity chat is not in the game yet, and we’re waiting for that before playing some more.
But these guys NAILED the Alien Isolation vibe.
That’s awesome to hear. I’m planning to get some time with it next week and write something up specifically about it for the newsletter!
Seems really well done for an indie game, congrats to their effort.
