Project Spectrum Other Features & Info
- labelMultiplayer Modes
The core gameplay is a session-based, asymmetric PvPvE extraction shooter where multiple squads of 3-4 players compete on the same map. A key feature is the ability for some players to take direct control of powerful monsters to hunt the human Operators.
- labelStory and Setting
The game is set in a near-future world shattered by the 'Ember Phenomenon,' a reality-warping force creating quarantined 'Ember Zones'. Players are elite Operators sent into these zones on high-risk missions to retrieve artifacts, rescue VIPs, and investigate supernatural occurrences while battling rival squads and horrific 'Spectral Entities'.
- labelTop 3 Gameplay Mechanics
- 1. Asymmetrical PvPvE: The core design where multiple squads of human Operators not only fight each other (PvP) but also a host of AI-controlled monsters (PvE). Asymmetry is deepened by allowing some players to control powerful monster characters. 2. Sanity Meter & Psychological Horror: A unique mechanic where exposure to the zone's horrors drains an Operator's sanity, causing audio-visual hallucinations and even temporary loss of player control, making tension a constant factor. 3. Procedural Extraction Loop: The game is built on replayability. Maps, objectives, enemy spawns, and extraction points are procedurally generated or scrambled each session, ensuring no two runs are identical.
