Gameplay instructions
Unzip and run CUT/CutFilm.exe (Windows 64-bit, DirectX 12 GPU recommended). Built and tested on Windows 11; it should also run on Windows 10 64-bit. On the title screen choose ROLL CAMERA (the 25-second cold open can be skipped).

Goal: you are directing a horror film on a hospital set. Frame each shot on the shot list (center it and hold it steady for 1.5 seconds) to get it in the can. Wrap all five sets: 27 shots, about 20-30 minutes.

The rule: the plaster stand-ins never move while the camera is rolling. They only move when you CUT. A stand-in that is in frame when you cut stays put; everything you can't see takes a step toward you. If the 8-second reel runs out, it's a sloppy cut and everything moves twice. Get caught and you reshoot the act. When you wrap, the Studio Cut plays, then your own Director's Cut.

Controls (keyboard & mouse / gamepad):
- Move: WASD / left stick
- Look: mouse / right stick
- CUT!: left click or Space / RT or A
- Zoom lens: hold right mouse / hold LT
- Use / read: E / X
- Pause & options: Esc / Start

Options: look sensitivity, invert look, volume, music level, brightness, graphics quality, window mode, camera shake, cut flashes, danger hint, sound captions, 1st AD radio.
