I must say, I did enjoy this game very much. It had just the right amount of creepy. Loved the rusty pixels aesthetics, although the flashlight was... Well, let's just say, that The Company(tm) cheaped out opn some equipment. :D And also it was pretty hard to find the last bag of trash. 

Ambience sound was really immersive, sound effects actually helped in gameplay and orientation. Sound is a pretty much a must in this game. And I really loved the [CLASSIFIED] and [DATA CORRUPTED ]. :)

Glad you liked it! The subtle scary ambience was exactly what I was going for - and yeah, even AIA got a bit spooked on Stream

Not a web game sadly

Developer (1 edit)

Unreal Engine 5 has no inbuilt web feature. Luckily being a web game was optional

Ah I see, I thought it said it as one of the main rules. Usually game jams are web games that way people can play them without the possibility of downloading a malware.

Developer

Yeah I am also familar with that concept - that's how my recent game jam submission also was handled. Though for this one it was only optional, so I thought why not make an actual good 3D game with some story and stuff instead of making the next browser cookie clicker but with water this time lol.

Have you played it though? Or were you scared of getting malware?
