A space station has been swallowed by a black hole, mutants roaming the corridors, and everything seems to have gone mad around you. Be sneaky or blast your way through the station and find a way home, all in a disco-punk atmosphere, as if you were the hero of a 70s B-movie that never existed...

The Real Review

Most people digging into Retrospace are having a good time, especially for the price, though it's not without its jank. The gameplay and graphics nail that weird disco-punk vibe and the level design gets consistent praise, but the difficulty often feels cheap and performance is a widely-reported bugfest, especially on PC. The constant comparisons to System Shock and Prey are a mixed bag, some see it as a loving homage, others feel it's a step behind its inspirations. Just be ready for some truly awful ladders.
