Co-ordination, co-operation and decisiveness are essential to victory, as multiple tasks need to be taken care of across the vessel. Who is going to fire the lasers, arm the torpedoes, repair a breach in the hull and extinguish that damned fire? Boldly go, or things will go badly!
In addition to the regular occupational hazards, each level offers unique challenges and dangers to deal with including solar flares and malfunctioning extraction doors. Meanwhile a whole host of unique mechanics will keep even the most experienced crew members on their toes.
"I'm extremely excited to reveal Catastronauts to the world. It's our first console title and we struggle with keeping the noise down in the office when we play it." said Kieran Newland, Lead Game Developer, Inertia Games Studios. "We've focused on making it super accessible while still keeping plenty of challenge and fun. We can't wait to see how the public responds to it."
Inertia Game Studios will be EGX Rezzed at the Tobacco Dock London from the 13th - 15th April, and invite all budding Catastronauts to try their hand at five chaotic levels and say hello to the devs. Grab your friends and enlist today - an entire galaxy of misadventure awaits!
Catastronauts is headed to PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC in late 2018.
