Sub-Species, a 2.5D multidirectional alien sci-fi shooter from independent developer Howling Hamster Entertainment, rolled out a playable demo. Check out the game’s Steam page to wishlist, find out more, and give the demo a spin.
In Sub-Species, you control a submarine that rotates 360° in order to battle alien sea monsters that will be coming at you from all angles. Explore contaminated zones, outmaneuver and fight against the aggressive alien lifeforms across 12 levels in 4 environments. Search for weapons and lost experimental technology, unveil secrets and mysteries, and keep your submarine safe.
As the story unfolds, uncover the secrets of the emerging alien world, and the naval authorities that control it.
“The deep ocean is the closest thing we have to an alien world on Earth,” said Creative Director Manus Burke. “We wanted players to feel that tension, the beauty that pulls you in, and the fear that reminds you you’re not supposed to be there.”
