Toxicant Entering Steam Early Access Later this Month

Nova Scotia-based indie game studio Cosmocat Games (@cosmocatgames) has announced their rogue-lite survival horror game TOXICANT will be launching in Steam Early Access on July 24, 2020.

TOXICANT offers a sinister twist on the survival horror genre, featuring randomized levels and roguelike elements:

  • Traverse a series of increasingly difficult randomized levels, upgrading your stats and gear along the way;

  • Use items like compasses, maps, beacons, and the MonPro 2000 to aid you in navigating the depths of the mines;

  • Collect miner's notes and secret documents to learn the story of a conspiracy gone horribly wrong;

  • Sample an assortment of nourishment and libations in your quest to survive: expired canned food, toxic mushrooms, rancid wine, and more;

  • Salvage old mining equipment and use it as a weapon, or a shield!
