Cold Salvage is a #multiplayer #co-op #horror #survival game set in the reaches of space. You're not a soldier - you're an engineer. Load up on gear, Explore, Repair, Survive.

Public playtests coming in 2026

One of the most important tools of the salvage engineer is the map table. You can override security lockouts and guide fellow engineers to the damage - so long as the wreck still has power. Strategize as a team!

When I close my eyes, I still hear that sound.

Version 0.4.254 was just released to our alpha testers in the community discord. Updated UI, the first pass of the interactive map table, and the wreck now has a name plate!

Look, it's a tiny thing but we are loving the new menu screens for Cold Salvage. Our new 3D artist is getting some serious mileage out of kitbashing - which is so critical in a small team on a shoestring budget

Quick little #WIP of the reactor core particle effects and unfinished deck layout.

The reactor is not dangerous by itself, but for some as-yet unknown reason, the things that cross over, they love to nest here. Move quickly, move quietly.

Those 2016 throwbacks are so last week! Here is an original 'devil' concept Dan drew in Grade 5 (circa 1998), and a boss concept he did just recently. Satan, now known as Gary, is in an office politics nightmare after a hostile takeover from Heaven. Performance Review ahoy! #indiegames #indiegamedev

We saw this one at #PaxAustralia, the whole dev team dressed up as their characters! Awesome looking title! "Killing Things With Your Friends"

If you like roguelites and cricket, there's still a demo available for Card Cricket Quest: store.steampowered.com/app/4155160/...

Two of the devs that made Headlice also worked on this. I am told the "cricket ball to the nadgers" animation is 100% custom 😂

More beautiful #dev #art. The brief was "the players need to be able to carry an explosive device". 💣

Here's a throwback for the state of the game 61 days ago in November. Including the Christmas break, that translates to six actual weeks of work between then and now

Happy Friday! Today's dev diary is this incredibly moody CIC (command deck) work in progress by our new 3D artist. We're so excited to see what they can build with the existing assets

#indiedev #wip #environmentalart

We can't get enough of crunchy #devart . This is what a spaceship's 3D printer looks like in the year... 2233? Something like that. It's perfect in every way.

When building the game, first we make it work - then we make it pretty. We present: the Geiger Counter Vending Machine

Cold Salvage - A co-op survival game. Claim your salvage tug from the scrapyards, gear up with your engineer buddies, and try to survive dangerous salvage missions. But be careful, the things that killed these ships may still be on board...

#indiedev #gamedev #horrorgame #spotlight

#gamedev early WIP of our life atmospheric systems and wrist monitor in Cold Salvage. Parts of the wreck may have low O2, dangerous CO2 levels, or even be exposed to vacuum. A good engineer knows when to put their helmet on.
