Currently, there are 31 organs in the game, although Nelson says this is scalable, and may change “if I finally wake up in the dead of night and decide, once and for all, that teeth are actually an organ”. The current roster of innards includes familiar human parts like hearts and pancreases, but also weirdo alien organs that interact in difficult ways if you store them together. It is all a lot less gory than it sounds, although it’s still impossible to describe the game’s aesthetic without using the word “pulsating”.
One of the Space Warlords is a dog called Chad Shakespeare. Nelson told me about several others, but it only dawned on me quite late in the interview that he was potentially doing a bit about Space Warlords who supposedly existed in our reality, without breaking kayfabe for a moment. Honestly, it’s quite hard to talk about this game without sounding like I made it up. But to be fair, it does lookrightup my street.
SWOTS will be with uson Steamat an unspecified point in 2021, at which point you’ll be able to buy and sell all the organs you like, as well as - in Nelson’s words - “finally realising Microsoft’s hardware dream of plucking an organ out of the air and moving it with your hands”.
Disclosure: Xalavier Nelson Jrhas written for Rock Paper Shotgunon many occasions, and is close friends withGhoastus.
