About Demon Spore

An intense action-horror roguelite inspired by 80’s monster movies puts players in the role of a terrified scientist caught in the midst of an experiment gone hellishly wrong. As a virally spreading mass of flesh and tentacles spreads throughout the facility, players must scavenge mazes of rooms for tools and makeshift weapons for even a shred of hope for survival. Plan and improvise an escape route and fight hordes of slithering creatures on the way. And in true roguelite fashion, the level’s layout changes after each death, meaning no two runs will be the same.

Key Features

Fight and flight: 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.
Survive together: 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.
Breaking containment: 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.
