Tough new roguelike Katanaut makes Dead Cells look kind, and you can try it now

There's something particularly appealing about horror games set in space stations. From Dead Space to Alien Isolation, the sense of being trapped not only in a branching, monster-infested building but also being stranded out in the unlivable expanses of outer space makes every threat especially terrifying. Katanaut understands this, and now, thanks to the launch of a new demo on Steam, players can get a feel for both its demanding, Dead Cells style roguelike action and its foreboding, blood soaked space station setting.
