A liminal office horror game in an endless procedurally-generated building.
A liminal horror game about escaping your dad's endless procedurally-generated office building.
Story BackgroundYou're 9 years old on a Friday night in 1998. Your workaholic dad is forced to bring you along to his office, and he's acting strangely. He reveals that tonight is the final stage of his revenge plot against his company, but he assures you everything will be fine; you'll both be long gone before anything bad happens. However, things don't go to plan. You get separated, and you're left to explore the dangerous office alone.
GameplayExplore offices, hallways, stairwells, elevators, atriums, bathrooms, and more as you wander through a seemingly endless liminal office searching for a way out. Each run is completely different with randomized areas and encounters. Look for clues and keys to progress into new areas, discover secrets, and learn what happened to Dad.
In story mode, you begin to help your dad with his plot. He shows you how to shred evidence to cover his tracks and steal company secrets by faxing them to a secure location.
Things go wrong and the building goes into lockdown, preventing anyone (or anything) from escaping. Ending the lockdown requires agreement from each of the company's departments. You'll need to visit every department within the building and activate its hidden security override button to end the lockdown and escape.
Along the way, you'll find company secrets to steal via fax and evidence of dad's plot to destroy.
Procedural GenerationAll areas of the office are procedurally generated. These are not cookie-cutter rooms randomly snapped together. Instead, complex spaces are mapped and built using individual wall pieces, floors, ceilings, and doors, then populated with furniture and items to create completely unique and different spaces on every play.
