Following up on the game\u2019s world premiere last year, an all-new developer sneak-peek demonstrates the nightmarish claustrophobia of this immersive horror indie; the protagonist, Dr. Danni Carroll, faces down monstrous creatures spontaneously emerging from water sources, as she explores a flooded deep-sea facility.<\/p>\n<p>The immersive sim \/ Metroidvania hybrid forces players to contend with and manipulate real time fluid simulations whilst combatting enemies which spawn from any water source. The developers are hoping to build a spiritual successor to System Shock 2 and Prey 2017, albeit it one which is highly unique and original.<\/p>\n<p>For gamers eager for updates on DEEPEST FEAR&#x2122;, the Variable State team has launched a dedicated newsletter, which will provide development updates\u2014 and the game is available to wishlist on Steam.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 DEEPEST FEAR&#x2122; is a sci-fi horror shooter, combining Metroidvania level design in the context of a classic FPS immersive sim, where the game\u2019s setting is a puzzle to unravel and where creativity and improvisation are your greatest assets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Inspirations | Retro-Future Cinema<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 Channeling the spirit of iconic and subversive 1980s horror action films such as The Abyss, The Thing, The Fly, and Total Recall, and more broadly the cinematic canons of James Cameron, John Carpenter, David Cronenberg, and Paul Verhoven, DEEPEST FEAR&#x2122; aims to stay true to a vision of visceral horror, vivid characterisation, and confrontational storytelling. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Fear the Water<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 The immersive sim brings to life a new kind of terror as water itself becomes a living threat, with real-time fluid simulation allowing nightmarish entities to emerge from any water source or submerged space within the hermetic confines of the Neptune facility.<br \/>\n\u2022 Using real time fluid simulation, fight otherworldly entities which manifest spontaneously from any water source, all while the environment around you can flood and take in water at any moment, sweeping you away with unpredictable currents, plunging you into the suffocating depths.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Story of Survival<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 As Dr. Danni Carroll, players are thrust into the labyrinthine depths of Neptune, a mysterious retro-futuristic facility hiding dark secrets and dangerous truths.<br \/>\n\u2022 With survival on the line, players must harness their wits and an arsenal of tools to uncover the mysteries surrounding a project masterminded by Danni\u2019s estranged father.<br \/>\n\u2022 Fight your way to the heart of a sinister project and uncover a mystery both deeply personal and terrifying in its implications. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Creative Team<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 Featuring an original cinematic score by the BAFTA-winning composer and studio co-director, Lyndon Holland, and the award-winning writing talent behind Virginia and Last Stop, DEEPEST FEAR&#x2122; combines the cinematic storytelling the studio is known for with visceral first person shooter and horror gameplay.&#8220;<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Upcoming sci-fi horror FPS inspired by 80s retro-futurist cinema (Aliens, The Abyss, The Thing, + more), DEEPEST FEAR, just offered up a sneak-peek at gameplay with developer commentary from Game Director at Variable State, Jonathan Burroughs. &#8222;DEEPEST FEAR&#x2122;
