About the Game

Project Eel is a first-person horror game set inside a vast underground research facility where something has gone terribly wrong.

Deep below the surface, strange experiments, abandoned sectors, and endless tiled corridors hide a terrifying secret. As a newly assigned technician, your job is simple: travel between sectors, complete critical maintenance tasks, analyze the facility's condition, and locate the cure hidden somewhere within the complex.

Each sector presents unique challenges. Regulate temperatures, inspect water systems, navigate claustrophobic ventilation networks, and survive increasingly dangerous environments as the facility continues to deteriorate.

But you are not alone.

Something massive moves through the darkness.

Explore liminal environments inspired by poolrooms, industrial laboratories, and forgotten research facilities. Carefully monitor sector conditions, discover safe routes, and uncover the truth behind the experiments before it is too late.

Features:
• Atmospheric first-person horror
• Large interconnected facility to explore
• Multiple task-based gameplay systems
• Dynamic safe and unsafe sectors
• Liminal poolroom-inspired environments
• Unique giant creature encounters
• Immersive sound design and environmental storytelling

Can you survive the depths of Project Eel?
