Looking for a publisher who knows what they’re doing? Kwalee is the one. They just dropped a game on Steam called The Precinct that people seem to really like. But they’re also cooking up something totally different: a disco-punk space horror boomer shooter game called RetroSpace. It mixes stealth, action, and immersive sim elements set in a retro-futuristic world. It’s releasing on PC via Steam, but we don’t have a release date yet.
The story of RetroSpace kicks off way in the future. You’re just a regular janitor on this huge space station, Aurora 5, which is part of the last bunch of humans trying to find a new planet. But then things get seriously weird, a black hole that’s somehow alive swallows the station. Suddenly, it’s this crazy maze filled with mutant creatures that are part animal and part plant, security robots that are totally glitched out, and time warps that flip you between two different time periods.
The plot is described as this “disco-fever space-satire,” so it sounds like it’ll have some funny moments but also some surprising depth, kind of like if Dead Space and Prey had a baby. The way Aurora 5 is laid out in RetroSpace is like a big, connected puzzle box. As you explore and go deeper, you’ll unlock shortcuts and find secret ways to get around. There’s also this main area that’s mostly safe, a place where you can actually take a breather from all the scary stuff on the station.
Staying alive means you gotta think smart, because the enemies are all different. They act in their own ways, have different powers, and are weak to different things. You can even mess with the station’s security to set traps, get the defenses to fight for you, or use things like light and shadows to sneak past enemies. So, every fight feels like its own little puzzle to solve.
RetroSpace lets you play your own way. If you like being sneaky, you can try to avoid fights by hiding or causing distractions. But if you’re feeling brave, you can just run in and start swinging, even using bits and pieces you rip off enemies as weapons. You can also find these crazy experimental upgrades called Mutamods that give you superpowers, like tentacle arms or the ability to control minds.
