6 itemsAbout the Game
The story is about a man who was desperate enough to accept a strange but well-paid job. Without hesitation, he responded to the offer and was immediately hired. The task seemed simple: to perform routine but responsible work—identifying breakdowns in tunnels, repairing electrical systems, checking equipment, and so on.
Now you're in the hero’s shoes. The game unfolds in a pixelated style, giving it a nostalgic charm while also creating an oppressive, unsettling atmosphere. There are no bright hints—just you, your intuition, and your caution.
It all begins like a typical night shift. The subway is a vast but familiar structure, where the rumble of the rails and the dim glow of the lamps provide a calm—if slightly ominous—backdrop. But the deeper you venture into the tunnel, the stranger things become. The lights begin to flicker. You hear footsteps… even though no one is there. Strange sounds—and even stranger sights—start to emerge.
Is it just fatigue? A trick of the mind? Or is the subway hiding something much darker?
A small but atmospheric pixel art game with elements of exploration and survival.
Every location hides danger, and every decision you make matters.
This is my first game that I've managed to bring to completion. It may not be flawless, but it is heartfelt. Every person who buys it helps me move forward and create something bigger. Thank you for your support!
