A roguelike horror game set in space
Space Beast Terror Fright is a hard roguelike in which players are subjected to permadeath, meaning there is no continuing on from save points once killed. The game is built around the concept of a procedurally generated maze-like spacecraft, giving the player a unique playthrough each time.
The response to this game from players who have tried it has thrown up comparisons to classic first-person shooter (FPS) games, such as Aliens vs. Predator and Doom 3. According to players of Space Beast Terror Fright, the game succeeds at creating a frightening atmosphere that can lead to tense gameplay and organic jumpscares.
Become a space marine
In Space Beast Terror Fright, the player becomes a space marine on a mission in a claustrophobic spacecraft that happens to be infested with dangerous Space Beasts. The player must search for and collect DataCores, navigate the maze of corridors and avoid being killed by the dangerous creatures.
Procedural level generation
The game world of Space Beast Terror Fright is one made of narrow corridors and a maze-like design. The game world is procedurally generated, and each playthrough results in a unique world, preventing the player from using their past experience to assist them. This feature, coupled with the permadeath aspect of the game, makes it a particularly difficult game.
A tense, satisfying yet limited game
The one complaint players seem to have is that the content of the game is somewhat limited, providing only the core game experience and the option to play locally or online with friends in both PvP and co-op.
