Demo Features

  Scramble across the first floor of Protagenics lab to start your escape - if you can make it to the elevator, you’ll be well-prepared for the horrors in the full release.

  If the challenge is too much alone, team up with 4 players on the couch, across the world with Steam Remote Play Together, or a mix of both.
  
• Applied science
  Strike back using six experimental weapons, including a tesla coil gun and a scalpel thrower - there’s many more to come in the full release.
  
• Instructions not included
  Ransack the lab for equipment to increase your damage, move faster, resist acid or flame, or predict where the creature will grow next.
  
• Investigate the outbreak
  Discover voice memos left by fleeing scientists, get medical help or ammo from technicians and rescue a terrified staff member trapped in the facility to unlock them.
  
• Particular skills
  Each playable character in the demo comes equipped with a unique equipment perk according to their background.
  
• Work the system
  Access Security Consoles to lock down a room and trap the creature, or cleanse it with flames, giving you a new escape path to the elevator.

  You may not make it on your first try, but giving up is not an option. Each treacherous attempt has a new layout and new equipment, so choose your route carefully.

About This Demo

As a top scientist at a cutting edge genetic research laboratory, you’re racing to solve the problem of feeding an ever growing population. Your team is overstepping ethical boundaries with gene editing in an attempt to breed a new form of livestock that will grow at 100 times the rate of normal animals.

But after an experiment is mysteriously interfered with, it gives birth to a virally spreading mass of cells that is consuming everything in its path and evolving into a creature from hell. You must use your scientific experience to learn how the organism behaves, exploit its weaknesses and fight your way to safety.

Endure your way through the first level of Demon Spore in this demo by reaching the elevator and escaping the starting floor. This is only the beginning - there are many layers to the nightmares that await in the full game coming later this year.

ENEMY UNKNOWN

An abomination of flesh and tentacles with a taste for organic matter, constantly evolving and adapting, spreading to consume everything in its path. Use any tools you can find to slice through the creature’s tentacles, target its weak spots and stunt the growth. Escape each floor before the growth mutates into something even more horrific.

SURVIVOR TEAM

Team up with friends in local co-op where up to 4 players can attempt to escape the lab together. Choose your character and role carefully and watch each other’s backs - you’ll have to work together to survive this tentacle-infested hell.

RESOURCEFUL CARNAGE

Use your scientific know-how to re-purpose lab equipment and systems to slow down the growth or create a diversion. Manipulate the lab’s layout to lock doors, create new routes and block the creature’s spread. Cobble together experimental weapons and technology to fight your way to safety in an ever changing environment.

TOUGH CHOICES

Every room reveals new surprises and tough choices. Sneak past the creature before it spots you or set a trap to swing the fight in your favour? Save a scientist to unlock new equipment or cut your losses and race to the exit? But be careful - even your fellow scientists may be unknowingly carrying a dormant growth waiting to release itself…

DYNAMIC ESCAPE ROUTE

Each path has different dangers and different rewards, choose your escape route wisely to stay one step ahead of the creature. Every time you play you face a completely different layout but will learn more of the secrets of the lab and how to use them to your advantage to outsmart your enemy.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Contains scenes of violence against creatures/monsters i.e. shooting creatures, attacking creatures with an axe.
Contains wounded or dead scientists bodies on the ground. All the game is viewed from the top down from a high overhead camera so the violence is viewed from above from a far distance.
