Part of me has given up hope of it releasing, they've been working on it for over 11 years now

What are you hoping for release?

A full game with characters and a story? You’re right, they officially gave ambition up years ago after never finalizing a deal for funding.

Or are you waiting for a full ship, empty but completely explorable? Because Demo 401 has been out for a year, and it features almost the entire ship. Version 2.0 will be coming out in a few days with even more spaces to explore and will be released in Unreal Engine 5:

The team is currently remaking most of the ship for an entirely different future release. Not sure why or if the difference will be be that noticeable.

It’s funny how visually the best looking “game” coming out this spring is a tech demo from an indy studio. Stoked for getting a chance to explore it in UE5. Just wish a larger company could pick up what they did, and turn out a full-fledged narrative for it.

Imagine an LA Noir style detective game, where you are a detective travelling back to the US, then the crew approaches you to let you know a murder has occurred. They are keeping it quiet, but you have to find out who did it before the ship gets to New York, you unlock a big conspiracy, then shit hits the fan when the iceberg hits.

I'm downloading the demo as we speak. It's been years since I've checked up on them.
