About

Self-induced virus  provides immortality while it harvests at other’s souls. You try to fix your mistake by talking to a god that will revoke your connection to their souls and your memory of injecting the virus.

The player is a lab researcher/scientist and wants immortality.

Meet this god by disabling the reality locks in your lab (min 3), and returning to your spawn point.

Switching 10 reality locks guarantees your exit. Each reality lock (past 3) increases your chance of a "successful" exit. 

However, you can still leave with 3 if you get lucky.

Be quiet to avoid the security system while you run through the lab at night (don't jump too often, and don't flip locks while moving).

You can pickup bandages to dampen your movements, and a mask to be protected from cameras if you trip the sound system.

Power the lights back on with a transformer box periodically.

Controls

Jump - Space

Sprint - Shift

Replay-ability

FAQ/TIPS (SPOILERS)

Q: So is this game a demo/prototype?

A: Yeah sorry, only had 3 days to make the game. I'm actively updating the game to make it less of a demo and more of a full game :)

Q: Will you add support for more platforms?

A: I will try my best to add support for mac and linux, maybe a demo for webgl but that's about it.

Q: What does "you got caught" mean?

A: You died to a laser or camera after tripping the sound system.

Q: ... well how do I not get caught?

A: Don't flip "reality locks" (just the yellow switches) while you are moving or jumping. Also don't jump too often unless you have stacked many bandages.

Q: What does "god wasnt on your side" mean?

A: You lost the exit/winning gamble (that's why you flip more reality locks, make the door anomaly more unstable).

Q: The lights went out... what do I do?

A: Find a transformer box on a wall and turn them back on.

Q: How do I get more time?

A: Memorize your route and switch placement to optimize time usage. Or just click f to convert a bandage into health at the cost of making more sound. 

Q: What is the glowing liquid?

A:

Q: Will you update the game?

A: Well... I am a single developer working on this game, so that's a lot to ask for (just kidding, hey look at that funny link down there)!
