Sublevel Zero is now available on Linux and Mac OS X! To celebrate the launch, you can now get descend into six-degrees-of-freedom hell at 15% off until Thursday, November 26, 4:59 PM GMT.

A roguelite descent into six degrees of freedom.

<span class="bold">Sublevel Zero</span> a procedurally generated six-degree shooter, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 15% launch discount.

Six degrees of freedom and a reality about to fall apart - descend into an ancient, underground facility where a long-lost technology is the key to your survival.
Sublevel Zero marries the most intense aspects of modern roguelike RPG elements, and classic Descent-like gameplay. There are no lives and no saves, every playthrough will be different thanks to the procedurally, yet masterfully generated levels - as you navigate claustrophobic tunnels in search for the next keycard, you'll never know what to expect around the corner. There are no two ways about it, Sublevel Zero is a revival of the classic Descent gameplay, with a very modern and engaging twists - it hits all the right spots, and up and down will soon lose all meaning.

Start your descent in <span class="bold">Sublevel Zero</span> available now, DRM-free on GOG.com. The launch discount will last for one week, until October 15, 3:59 PM GMT.
I am confused about the no saves part. Does this mean the game lasts only as a single session? Or that it auto saves when you exit?


Another question, is there a preferred method of controlling your craft? Joystick\hotas, gamepad, mouse+keyboard?

From what I've read, this game looks like a roguelike when means you only get one chance and then you die. But it still looks pretty cool! I wonder if it works with an Xbox 360 controller...

If you like, tonight this game will be streamed on twitch.tv/gogcom with the developer present. It'll be in less than 2 hours. Which means 8pm CEST sharp. There you can ask all kinds of questions, get a general idea what the game is about. and even have a chance of winning things.

Oooo, nice. This was surprise release. I'd heard nothing about this game until now.

I think I'll pick this up after I get paid this week. I love space games and 6 degrees of freedom type games.

By the way, you think there's any chance we'll get Retrovirus released on GoG at some point? :)
So.. this is Indie-scent?
Reminds me of Forsaken and Descent. Do want!

So we are talking about few min per session without the option to save to continue? That's not for me then, thanks for your reply.
Yay, another roguelite indie game.
At least it's not regionally priced.
Am I the only who thought about Mortal Kombat when seeing the title? ^o^ (yeah, I know it's sub-zero but whatever....)
