New game by indie studio Lunar Software (http://www.lunar-software.com). Who might I note- currently consists of a grand total of 3 people.
It's an exploration First Person horror game. You have to explore an abandoned moon base and find out what happened to everyone, based on shit you find.

>no health packs or regen
>no lives, uses permadeath
>hazards are randomly generated, you won't face the same hazard twice

I was always wondering how it would be to play a game that you can't heal your self, just getting hit, die and then game over appears. Sounds very interesting............

;_; so scary ;_;

It's ZombiU in space.
RUN!

I say it doesn't look nothing like Zombie U. Zombie U is everything, but scary it is not.

So what's with indie devs and roguelikes these days?

We can't run in space!.. We're screwed.

They are fun because there's little repetition involved. It extends playtime by having random elements to it. And for a Horror game, a roguelike style is perfect, because it doesnt rely on scripted scares.

FTL, HLM... these games are very addicting.
