Cryostasis Tech Demo

**Aus_Karlos** · 03-21-2009, 02:40 AM

Its pretty cool to be honest, but by the looks of it the game isn't really finished. I do hope they add some reflection to the water and transparency.

This download is not playable but a benchmark. Hitting some keys can cause the benchmark to stop short so be careful. Also the sound is disabled by default i dont know why, which you can able prior to the game loading.

Story:
Year 1968. Arctic Circle, Russian North Pole station "Pole 21". The main hero Alexander Nesterov is a meteorologist occasionally caught inside an old nuclear ice-breaker North Wind, frozen in the ice desert many years ago. This steel creature once fought for its life and freedom, but it has fallen into an ice trap and all the creatures on its board lost not only their natural look, but a right to die. Cryostasis is a story about a drama of a Captain and his Ship evolving in the atmosphere of animal fear.

The Tech demo says I need vista even though XP is supposedly compatible. I want to know if any Xp users got it to work.

looks breath taking like Bioshock!

**Aus_Karlos** · 04-18-2009, 01:28 AM

Its possible at this time the tech demo was only released for Vista it doesn't state what OS is supported. The specs i posted was the official requirements for the retail version and not the demo.

silenceoftheham · 04-18-2009, 08:46 AM

Yeah that seems to be the case. Thanks for the help anyways.

**RockmasteR** · 04-25-2009, 02:05 PM
