The Breach - Intergalactic Zombie Shooter

The Breach is a sci-fi horror platformer and shooter coming from Berzerk Studio. The plot is pretty interesting and as you can see from the intro, it's pretty well executed, so you know exactly what's going on. You are Sergei, a commander of a space ship Hermes, sent out on a distant planet for mining, when new revolutionary starship comes in to pick you up.

The ship is ultra modern and it utilizes the latest wormhole jump technology which significantly shortens long distance travels throughout the space. But the ship is unresponsive. So you, as a commander, decide to check out what's been going on and what is the cause of the malfunction in communication. To your surprise, it turns out that the ship has become contaminated by an unknown and dangerous source which turned the whole crew into zombies.

The more you investigate, the more strange things you find out. Most of the time you will be running down dark ship corridors shooting at either zombies or flying mutated insects. These are not particularly dangerous and you get to take them down by only a few shots, but they tend to unexpectedly jump at you from dark. By time, you slowly loose the shield and ammo, but if you manage to level up you automatically get increased the fire rate, the shield gets regenerated and your health. You should pay attention to and pick up small health packages scattered around the place.

This is more of a platformer or shooter than some creepy horror game. On the other hand, it still does contain few gory, though cartoonish, images mostly things such as vomiting zombies and zombies loosing their heads with blood gushing out, so it is not advised for little kids.
