I made a Short to go along with my playthrough. I'm new to this, but I wanted to create interest in my video and the game, but I also didnt want to give anything away. I hope it's alright.
I LOVED this so much. The managing of information and the creepy living space. The isolation and disconnection from the surface. This is exactly what kind of games I come looking for on the Itch.io site!! <3 <3
EDIT: The notes gave you just enough info to piece together what is REALLY happening, but without spoiling it!
It's an amazing game! Thank you for your work! I really love how you introduce complex stuff at the beginning, first there is nothing to worry about, but later it becomes very tense. Also, I love the lore, and the ending... Well, I am very grateful I chose to go in blind
Devs yous have made a special little indie game, it has everything to be a great game including a really interesting story and gameplay loop, amazing sound design and grungy stylistic visuals. It's not scary but has a really heavy atmosphere. It also reminds me of some indie greats....
* SOFT SPOILER IN READ MORE*
It feels like Iron Lung but you're a driller, if you know what I mean ;)
Really great game! Loved the atmosphere, the increasing pressure of the workplace, a solid length for a short horror game with a satisfying ending. Definite recommend and follow.
Wanted to create an account to say that this game was great! The atmosphere was great from the beginning and kept me on edge throughout, not knowing what to expect. The slight tension buildups through each work day was great and kept me nervous. The ending was surprising and very welcome. Looking forward to more games from you!
What an excellent little game inspired by Iron Lung! While it would've been nice to have a run button for a certain late-game complication, the gameplay is excellent, and the ending is very well foreshadowed if you pay attention to notes and the particulars of the machinery you're operating. Glad the finicky itch.io algorithm recommended me this game to try!
I registered here only to write this. This game is amazing, it really has the atmosphere of monotonous day to day work, great aesthetics, finale was really unexpected. I really wish it had a little bit more content combined with endless mode, the game loop is very entertaining. I would sink hours in this game!
The experience was exciting to say the least i felt the emotion at the end when i eventually known the truth behind everything i fell into great despair and despite knowing the truth i kept going and kept digging for the company.
Genuinely a really well made game with interesting mechanics, good atmosphere and good graphics. My light criticisms would be that the ending was somewhat anticlimatic and sort of doesn't really make sense. Is our character supposed to strap the clamps onto themselves now? I thought it was going to be us descending into some sort of creature nest and getting killed. Tying into the creature nest it would have been cool to maybe see some more spooky stuff happening outside the bunker occasionally, some more weird noises etc.
1. Звуковое/музыкальное сопровождение отлично отображает исходящую действительность. 2. Сюжет повествует от лица простого рабочего, труд которого оценивается лишь на благодать и не более. 3. Окружение/графика довольно хорошо сочетают в себе эстетику 70-х годов, лозунги и плакаты, похожие на лозунги советской коммунистической партии, что довольно хорошо вписывается в лор игры. Посмотрите наше прохождение на YouTube.
Great game. The I love the zeal mechanic with the paper, so satisfying. Also, I will love this "drill" mechanism in a multiplayer experience or something.
For a simulation game! Love the concept and small details that went into this! For other creators! This game takes about 45 minutes, and requires good fast acting pace! One of the best details that I did however like was the save feature after each shift! Great game 9.5/10!
This was a pretty solid experience! Loved as the shifts went on it got more hectic. With having to manage to drill AND make sure the holes are patched back up. Really sets up a panic situation. Made a video on it.
I posted this lower down, but I managed to figure out the code if you want to discover the secret.
(Spoilers)
Find the code on the side of the water cooler, next to the battery machine, by lifting up the ‘Out of Order’ sticky note. Then go to the locker in your bedroom and look down to enter it.

Cool game, with cool, enjoyable gameplay, but what's really cool about the game is the atmosphere.

Played for the horror, stayed for the depths
And the code, someone knows something, i played many times the game, and still don't know how to get it :(
