About Eldread: Horrors of a Dark Moon

Sent on a lunar expedition to investigate a silent colony, your crew crashes on its surface. Guided only by the unsettling rumors of a discovered bio log, you are completely unprepared for the unspeakable horrors lurking beneath the surface of Eldread.

Now stranded, you must scavenge resources to repair your ship and uncover the dark fate of the colony that came before you. Explore a hostile world and survive deadly hazards, all while managing your dwindling oxygen levels.

Battle strange mutants and cosmic horrors with weapons you scavenge or purchase with limited cash. You can also harness the power of cosmic entities through a mysterious, mutagen called Corruption. But beware: the corruption will eventually consume you.

In my recent update, one of the new features is a conversation system where you can talk to your allies and gain special items or equipments.

The Game will feature:

-At least 10 playable characters.

-21 expeditions(different levels) within 7 regions.

-60+ enemy types

-100+ different events

-100+ items

-randomize end game boss

-randomize mutation ability set
