The game is also notable for having help from some of Dave's friends, such as Creator/MicroHorrorArcade, who voices Jay.

[[https://dave-microwaves-games.itch.io/strange-terror-from-beyond-the-stars Strange Terror From Beyond The Stars!]] is a 2018 SurvivalHorror game by Creator/DaveMicrowavesGames. The game had a standalone sequel in VideoGame/StrangeTerrorFromTheDeep, which had an underwater theme instead of one of outer space.
This game, set in DeliberateVHSQuality, has you play as Jay in a space station laboratory, and trying to escape when a random alien or otherwise space-themed monster breaks in and destroys the place. It's up to you to find an escape.
!!This game has the grand space-age tropes such as:
* AbandonedLaboratory: The lab is broken apart and mostly empty, just you and the monster.
* AirVentPassageway: The lab has many vents the player can crawl through to sneak around.
* AloneWithThePsycho: Besides the small pocket of humans locked in the closet, the lab is empty except for you and whichever monster is chosen.
* DeliberatelyMonochrome: The entire game's style is in black and white.
* DeliberateVHSQuality: The entire game style is this, complete with static occasionally.
* {{Retraux}}: The game is set in the style of an old game from the 80s, though it was released in the late 2010s.
* SelfInsert: Dave himself appears in-game as "Dave MicroMonster".
