Carnage in Space: Crucible

About this game

When the remote colony of Dunest is in danger of eradication, three heroes answer the call...

There may be enemies behind every corner, and utmost peril at every turn, but together you can overcome any obstacle...

...As long as you can survive each other.

Carnage in Space: Crucible is a fast-paced, endlessly-customizable action platformer/beat-em-up. While you fight your way through a wide variety of combat scenarios and platforming challenges with three unique playable characters, you'll also take in a deep, layered story of mistrust, cooperation, and betrayal from each of their three perspectives.
