Ghostship Aftermath
Ghostship Aftermath - A new breed of survival horror - its no FPS!
CDF Ghostship (The Prequel) is an FPS! Watch out for halloween!
We will be changing the description slightly to emphasise the fact that is not an FPS and not to expect Ghostship Aftermath to be your typical run and gun game.
As on wiki-pedia, Survival Horror is a very different style and type of game :
"Survival horror is a subgenre of video games inspired by horror fiction that focuses on survival of the character and trying to scare the player(s). Although combat can be a part of the gameplay, the player is made to feel less powerful than in typical action games, because of limited ammunition, health, speed, or other limitations. The player is also challenged to find items that unlock the path to new areas, and solve puzzles at certain locations. Games make use of strong horror themes, and the player is often challenged to navigate dark maze-like environments, and react to unexpected attacks from enemies."
Thanks to one of the community for pointing this out.
