The Struggler must search for items they can scavenge, choose whether to confront or try and sneak past deadly foes, and weigh up the trustworthiness of other NPCs they might encounter aboard the station. The space station is controlled by a second player, The Station, who takes a dungeon master-style role as they put monsters, environmental dangers and other threats in the way of the Struggler’s survival. The two-player game puts one player in control of The Struggler - a parallel to Alien’s Ellen Ripley or Dead Space’s Isaac Clarke who is thrown into a punishing struggle for survival aboard a space station. ( Disclaimer: Holmes has previously written for Dicebreaker.) The does-what-it-says-on-the-tin You're In Space And Everything's Fucked is described by designer Nevyn Holmes as a loving tribute to gory video games like Dead Space and System Shock, as well as seminal sci-fi film Alien. An upcoming indie RPG looks to capture the lonely, brutal horror of classic space horror movies and video games.
