A downloadable game for Windows

Asset credits for game jam here

You wake up in a cryopod in an abandoned spaceship. Your only means of leaving is a broken escape pod. You will need to search the ship for repair kits to fix the vessel. Just don't get caught.

Controls:

WASD - Movement
Shift - Sprint
Space - Jump
E - Interact
G - Drop

How to Play

Find and collect all 5 repair kits around the map. You are not alone but there are a couple lockers that you can hide in. You are less visible in the dark, and do not shine your flashlight at it. Tread lightly when it is near because it can hear you sprinting. Your repair kits will weight you down, so drop them when needed.


Update 1.0

Hey again! I finally finished updating this game and added a lot of stuff I didn't have time to add for the game jam. I think these changes make the game a lot scarier and makes the gameplay a lot more engaging. Here is the full list of changes:

  • Added enemy reaction to flashlight
  • Made item in-hand visible
  • Added tons of VFX while being chased
  • Added item weight system
  • Added item dropping system
  • Added speedrun timer
  • Added volume and sensitivity settings
  • Added credits page
  • Improved slope movement
  • Added sprint FOV effect
  • Cleaned up locker mesh interior
  • Made interactions take longer
  • Fixed some issues with the enemy line-of-sight
  • Made flashlight toggle-able
  • Disabled camera effects and movement while paused
  • Some other stuff that I either forgot or chose not to include here

So yeah I hope you enjoy the new update! I love seeing people's reactions so lmk what you think in my discord server :)

Initial Release

I made this game in 2 days for the Spooky Jam '25. There are so many more things I wish I had time to add (primarily gameplay elements) but it is past 4 in the morning and I wanna sleep so here it is, hope you enjoy!

(ALSO there's supposed to be some nice volumetrics too but I cannot for the life of me get it to work in the build so unfortunately that won't be visible, at least for the game jam build)

Wonderfully packaged submission, loved the monster design and how you could hear it walk about even before you encounter it. The darkness and camera motion did a wonderful job at making me disoriented even though the level size was well scoped for the jam.

Thank you so much!! I'm so glad you got the vision :>
