Lethal Company video game

Lethal Company is a cooperative survival horror game developed and self-published by Zeekerss. It was released into early access on October 23, 2023. As contracted employees of “The Company”, players are tasked with landing onto abandoned moons to collect and sell scrap, all while avoiding hostile creatures in order to meet profit quotas.
Lethal Company’s aesthetic is best described as retrofuturistic. Low polygonal assets are blended with modern rendering techniques. Technology is large, bulky and decaying rapidly. Everything in general has a rather strange, rustic and uncanny look.
Lethal Company's logo seems to be set in Segoe Semi Bold. Its appearance is glitchy and worn, giving a strong first impression and a sense for what’s to come. In game, the user interface is set only in 3270font, a typeface based on the IBM 3270 terminal. It fits the aesthetic very well in game and appears much more rough during gameplay due to the game’s pixelation effect applying to UI elements.
