I think it’s safe to say we’re all pretty much aware of Lethal Company by now, even if you haven’t played it. The indie co-op horror game seemed to come from nowhere, yet it’s still dominating the charts on Steam, besting some AAA releases.

Lethal Company has built quite the reputation as one of the more terrifying games to hit the Steam marketplace in a while. But the game also has some other deadly mechanics that one player found out the hard way about.
It seems obvious, but while there’s a storm raging on a desolate planet, players may not want to be holding a metal tool. Reddit user Accomplished-Drop590 and their friends found out that even if you’re not holding something conducive in your hand, this doesn’t always mean you’re safe.

You never know when lightning is going to strike. Making a break for it during a storm is a calculated risk you sometimes have to take. It’s just that sometimes it doesn’t pan out. We would also love to see if the bridge at the end of the clip collapsed, as it has in our games, as that little bit of environmental destruction truly makes this island a doozy to navigate.
We applaud their shake-it-off laughter afterward. There is no better feeling than laughing off a disastrous run with your friends.

It’s a heck of a time, running through an abandoned bunker in the dark with nothing but a hazmat suit on your back and three of your closest buds at your side. Oh wait, that’s not your closest bud at all – it’s a grotesque, white-eyed monster eating their corpse and using their body like a puppet. Welcome to Lethal Company, a co-op survival horror game that’s all about digging deep into the (procedurally-generated and largely haunted) crevasses of exoplanetary human history for loot, which your party of up to four companions will need to figure out how to safely transport back to your ship and eventually sell to your eldritch bosses at the end of each round. This is a simple but highly enjoyable premise, and thankfully, there’s enough chaos decking the halls of its current early access version to sink an entire weekend into its depths without realizing you’ve done so. But, even with such a riveting loop and plenty of monsters to make it satisfyingly treacherous, Lethal Company does still feel like the work-in-progress it is thanks to its janky graphics and having little-to-no story to carry it.

The first time I played Lethal Company, I had barely walked 50 feet from our spaceship when I sank into some quicksand and died. The next time, I was obliterated by an automated turret, not because I walked in its way, but because one of my colleagues bashed it with a stop sign in a failed attempt to break it. In another mission, I was unceremoniously dragged away from our group by something before any of them knew what was happening.
