Manchester, 10th October 2024
Publishing label No More Robots (Descenders, Hypnospace Outlaw, Yes, Your Grace) and development studio Konafa Games are excited to reveal Starless Abyss, a turn-based deckbuilder that's Eld-rich in lovecraftian flair and roguelike elements.
Honestly, you've shogot to give this one a go. Players take on the role of a "Promixa", a human or entity held in stasis for years and now finally released with the goal to defeat the ‘Outer Gods’ which have ripped through space and time.

So here's what's kraken:
You command a fleet of ships and plow through the space horrors. Successful missions reward you with new artifacts to upgrade your ships, D.I.C.E to help sway pivotal moments between missions or cards from different factions, which can be collected, combined and combo-ed to help destroy the eldritch beasts.
But the closer you get to the Outer Gods, the more your sanity depletes. You can try to fight it off... or just embrace the insanity and harness the power of the occult, utilizing ridiculously overpowered Ritual Cards. Try not to go too mad out there, yeah?
With three acts per run, loads of different tentacle-y boss battles, over 160 cards and 5 Proximas with different skills and attributes to unlock, upgrade and master, there's a whole lot of game here.
Your mission is simple: defend Earth and destroy the Outer Gods. May we be forgiven!
Starless Abyss will launch in 2025 on Steam
