A different kind of body horror as you diagnose bizarre malformations all over a spaceship, Ultrasound is a grim (but great) looking point and click adventure. No release date is being given for it yet other than 2026, but they've said that a demo will arrive to try it out later this year.

Set aboard a long haul space freighter hurtling towards a star, Ultrasound sees players step into the shoes of Medical Officer Dana Voss, as she diagnoses and performs surgical procedures upon a grotesque alien infection which is rapidly spreading aboard the ship.

Ultrasound is being developed by two new fathers - Walter Woods (Lead Developer) and Jason Scalfano (Lead Artist) - and is inspired by their respective tragic and joyful paths to parenthood. "So many of us know the hope and horror of the ultrasound machine. The mystery. The ambiguity. The flickering image of life and death." said Walter Woods. "We hope our game captures these difficult feelings and resonates with players."

Game Highlights:

  • A MYSTERIOUS INFECTION IS SPREADING aboard a long haul space freighter. As Medical Officer Dana Voss, you must diagnose and perform surgical procedures on ship systems. Restore functionality before your collision course with a star comes to cosmic end.
  • USE A PORTABLE ULTRASOUND MACHINE to discover and diagnose bizarre malformations that hide within your ship.
  • PERFORM SURGERY to repair infected systems in tense and gruesome procedures that will test your skills.
  • MAINTAIN UNIQUE SHIP SYSTEMS such as life support, power, cargo manifests, and more. The failure of each system has drastic effects on your play experience, forcing you to adapt and manage resources effectively.
  • CRAFT STRANGE MEDICINES to heal and eradicate foreign growths. Navigate the risks, rewards, and unexpected effects of your creations.
  • MULTIPLE ENDINGS and high variety in each playthrough. Discover hidden secrets and new dimensions of the story each time.

Man - "horrors of the ultrasound" is such a real thing. When we had a miscarriage, it was that machine that delivered the news to us by showing a big empty black hole instead of where a baby should have been, like last time. The nurse couldn't say anything at all, so were just there scared to death wondering, knowing. Oof. Everything went fine with the next two pregnancies, so all good now, but yeah, that's not something you forget. Can't believe someone made a game and referenced that concept!! wow!
