About

Ghostship Aftermath - the game that takes SCI-FI SURVIVAL HORROR to a new level. Prepare for a new breed of survival horror with rogue-like elements!
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Over 350 years in the future mankind has embraced space travel and exploration. We have colonized many worlds and spread ourselves across the galaxy. The Colonial Defense Force (CDF) is responsible for the security of Earth and her colonies, and our only line of defense against the unknown.

On March 1st 2368 contact was lost with our most distant colony, located in the Icarus System. The Dreadnought class spaceship CDF Goliath was dispatched on March 3rd 2368 to investigate. The CDF lost contact with the Goliath not long after it entered the Icarus System on March 12th 2368. She is now presumed a Ghostship!

Before sending any more CDF forces it is common practice to send in an Advance Scientific Evaluation Team (ASET) comprised of 2 specialists from the Colonial Science Division (CSD) to determine if there are any biological or scientific threats which would impede a salvage operation.

You play the part of Dr. Jake Abbots who boards the CDF Goliath while your partner, Dr. David Riggs, stays behind on the CSD Alexis as mission control. You have radio contact with Dr. Riggs and he will give you objectives, advice, and help you along the way. Or at least that was the plan. As you will soon find out, anything can happen aboard the Ghostship...

Your actions will decide your fate in this non-linear sci-fi survival horror game with real consequences. You have limited oxygen and sprinting uses it 4x as fast, while your helmet has a non-rechargeable, non-replaceable 1 hour flashlight battery. So manage them well to avoid suffocation, or dying to unseen horrors lurking in the dark. After all, dead is dead is dead. With permadeath there are no do-overs, when you die you have to start a new game, but with random events and multiple story-line branches death is just a new beginning, and every game will offer something new!

Features

Ghostship Aftermath reviews and comments

I'm not going to drag myself but all that has to say is that it's big crap, full of bugs, already nothing but in the main menu. Unplayable. 0/20!

It's quite okay but it just pulls vieeeel down too much because of that a big one who has a better computer with MINDESTENS 8 gb ram and a good graphics card which can buy it

The Idea behind the Game is good but it is disastrously implemented. The Graphics are at least 10 Years behind the Animations. The Sound is even worse. You stay on everything and everyone doesn't hang a track from Physics. You can hardly kill the Opponents, it is not possible because of the Speed of some Enemies. After seeing the Intro 10 times "MUSSTE" (no you can't skip it) I gave up the Game. The only thing that triggered the Game with me was the Thought "I want my Money" back.

So, the Preview was promising-but at the latest with the second Opponent the super disappointment. Opponents who shop around like with cheap shooters at the Turn of the Millennium, as Well as graphics errors without End and an AI that is grotthely. The Opponents are modestly animated, racotic fast, Movement---all totally unnatural and ... I almost lack the Words. If you want to finish the Game, the Dialogue will no longer be hidden if you break it off again-or it will disappear after a While. The Animation of the Weapons and Shots totally loveless. The Target Cross zooms like a Red-point Visor-it becomes Screen-filling when you stand in front of a Wall ... So this is really a Hobby product. Nothing more.

Ghostship aftermath is a survival-oriented FPS that takes you hard, in the right direction. The game does everything to make you feel oppressed by the possibility of being the next meal of an alien while you are investigating this gloomy ship. The game still has a lot of bugs but I had already been able to test it in alpha and it must be said that there has already been a big evolution, thanks to the wonderful work of its independent developer, who worked alone on this title. Respect. The animations of the aliens leave still to be desired but the atmosphere of Yosemite is there and will make you jump more than once;) You will not only have to survive the aliens, but also the suffocation and the black... Indeed, you have an oxygen limit and a limited battery for your helmet lamp. In the end, the game certainly has some bugs, but the fun of the game is there because the atmosphere it releases is really oppressive. Remember, it's an independent game and we owe it to one man, who was able to create an excellent game where at every corner you could find death.
