This is a longshot, but does anyone know anything about this?

Some time in the last 10 years (I really think it was after this forum opened, though) there was an announcement for a game where you played the lone human on a spaceship that was on a very long trip. I think it had very important cargo. Anyway, you were the only human on the ship, and you stayed in stasis unless trouble arose, like space pirates or an unfriendly alien species, at which point you were awakened and expected to take care of business in order to protect the ship and cargo.

It was an announcement trailer, possibly on the PC Gaming Show during E3. I thought it was an interesting idea, but I have no idea what the name of the game is or who was developing it. I imagine that it might have been canceled at this point, but don't really know. Anyone remember this?

That sounds like this:

Blendo's first game in seven years is a small triumph.

That's it, although I read half the review and couldn't tell for sure, so I went to the Steam page. It's weird that I suddenly thought about this, and it had released just a week ago. Added it to my wishlist.

@Kaamos_Llama here's one that might be like we were talking about the other day, the old type of shooter but not a boomer shooter.

On the list it goes. Thanks.

That guy made Quadrilateral Cowboy which is one of those games that I like the idea of but probably wouldnt actually like when faced with it.

Sounds the couple year old film Passengers , with j.lawence and fishbourne.

Of all the titles for a game to have.... unless you're a huge John Ritter fan.
🤷‍♂️

That rings a bell—I vaguely remember a trailer like that, maybe 2017-ish? Could it have been Genesis Alpha One? Though that had clones, not stasis. Might be a totally different game though.

Turns out the name of the game was Skin Deep.
