The Carcass changes
The Carcass Joins Steam Typing Fest 2026!
We're thrilled to announce that The Carcass is part of Steam Typing Fest 2026, running from February 5 to February 9!
Why The Carcass Belongs in Typing Fest
The Carcass is built from the ground up as a keyboard-driven experience. Every interaction โ from managing your colony to negotiating with alien factions, from issuing commands to navigating the decaying organs of a dead cosmic being โ happens through a retro terminal interface powered entirely by your keystrokes.
This isn't just a game you play with a keyboard. This is a game where the keyboard IS the gameplay.
What is The Carcass?
You awaken in the depths of space, trapped inside the rotting body of a godlike creature. Darkness surrounds you. Decaying tissues stretch endlessly. Only your survival instinct remains.
Deep Colony RPG โ Build and manage a colony where every citizen has unique traits, skills, and personalities
ASCII Terminal Aesthetic โ Pure retro terminal visuals with authentic CRT effects
Procedural Storytelling โ No two playthroughs tell the same story
30 Alien Species โ Forge alliances, betray rivals, or wage war
9 Endings โ Five main paths plus four secret endings
Extensive Tech Tree โ Specialize in combat, production, diplomacy, or forbidden arts
