Ever wondered what would happen if Die Hard met Home Alone… in space?
Welcome to Skin Deep — a hilariously unhinged, stealth-action FPS where you’re not just dodging bullets… you’re also sneezing, bleeding, limping, and surviving with style (and sweat).
If you love chaotic sandbox gameplay wrapped in slapstick survival, this is the indie gem you didn’t know you needed.
What Is Skin Deep?
In Skin Deep, you play as a freelance security agent (or space pirate hunter, depending on the day) waking up mid-attack aboard a spaceship. You’re barefoot, outgunned, and the air is leaking. The enemies are armed. You? You’ve got wits, ventilation shafts, and a very itchy nose.
The game blends immersive simulation, light survival mechanics, and sandbox-level chaos into one wild ride — all while staying weird, unpredictable, and wildly entertaining.
What Makes It So Fun?
Immersive Sim Vibes: Inspired by classics like Deus Ex and System Shock, but sillier
Sandbox Chaos: Shoot out airlocks, crawl through vents, break legs — anything goes
Sneezing Is Deadly: Make noise, and enemies hear it. Even your allergies are a threat
Bodily Awareness: Limp when injured, hold your breath in vacuum, clean your wounds mid-fight
Tactical Humor: You can hide in lockers, choke on snacks, or slide into enemies for stealth knockouts
Who’s Gonna Love Skin Deep?
Fans of games like Heat Signature, Thief, or Metal Gear Solid
Gamers who enjoy physical comedy and unpredictable gameplay
Stealth lovers looking for something with more flavor (and more sneezes)
Indie fans who crave innovation and weirdness over realism
Survival Tips (and Laughs)
Hold your sneeze! It might blow your cover
Hygiene matters — clean up your wounds or limp forever
Close doors behind you — depressurization is real
Use distractions: cheese wheels, empty guns, and even body odor
Mind your footsteps — barefoot agents make less noise
Final Thoughts
Skin Deep takes the stealth genre and dunks it in absurdity — and we’re here for every second of it.
It’s clever. It’s chaotic. And it never takes itself too seriously — which might be exactly what modern gaming needs.
So whether you’re sliding under lasers or sneezing into a locker to avoid pirates, one thing is certain:
You’ve never played anything quite like this.
