About the Game

Inspired by Exit 8, The Underpass is an anomaly hunting game in which you must remember your surroundings and spot any differences in order to escape the loop.

At release the game has 30+ anomalies, with an average gameplay length of 30-60 minutes.

Features

  • Mouse & Keyboard and Controller support.

  • Autosave system so you never lose progress.

  • Anomalies do not repeat until all have been discovered, making completionist runs easier.

  • Customizable graphics settings, allowing the game to run on a wide variety of PCs.

  • Accessibility settings like toggle sprint, disabling effects such as motion blur, camera sway, etc.

  • No flashing lights, large moving patterns or other photosensitive epilepsy triggers*.

*If you discover a potential epilepsy trigger or other accessibility issue that I have missed, please let me know via the Steam forums!
