Project Apparatus

As immersive as single-player titles can be at times, the reliability, speed and ubiquity of internet connections nowadays allow developers to create experiences that prioritize teamwork and camaraderie between gamers, ultimately leading to unique moments that players can cherish for a long time.

In seeing how much pure, unadulterated fun can be had when the stakes are lower and competition is no longer a priority, a single indie developer decided to release Lethal Company, an outstanding title that can be made even more accessible through Project Apparatus.

Throughout the game, players take on the role of employees meant to scavenge various moons for scrap material that is sold to a mysterious corporation exchange for credits through which technical upgrades and tools can be purchased to make each mission easier.

Being a co-op title at its core, Lethal Company splits the available resources, tools and mechanics in ways that require collaboration between two or more players in order to accomplish the main goal of reaching the credit quota set up by the Company.

However, those whose best friends lack interest in this type of gameplay loop can also skip the various random online lobbies and jump straight to a solo play-through to immerse themselves in the Unity engine-powered hostile universe of this game.

If advancing through the moons is too difficult on your own, Project Apparatus comes into play to deliver a Cheat-Engine style of augmenting the player’s capabilities by giving infinite values to parameters such as health and stamina, while also enhancing the sprinting for a better speedrunning potential.

Users seeking to gain critical information on enemies’ behavioral patterns without falling prey to their attacks can also enable the night vision toggle before entering the NPC’s line of sight for scanning and adding the newfound details into the bestiary logging menu within the ship’s terminal.

While this type of program is usually frowned upon in most multiplayer titles, Project Apparatus is a welcome addition to Lethal Company for those seeking to find out more about the game’s lore without feeling as if they are at a disadvantage for playing on their own.
