As part of this exciting opportunity, developer Storm in a Teacup has created an in-depth new video walking fans through the mysterious and dangerous facility and introducing some of the exciting mechanics, including using stealth, modular upgrades, exploration and hidden areas, combat and taking remote control of KOBY and its special abilities.
