About This Game

You were late for your shift. Now the tunnels have collapsed, your crew is missing, and your only hope is a worn-out mining machine.

KEY FEATURES

  • Psychological Horror Beneath the Surface: Trapped underground, you depend on a worn-out machine to keep you alive.

  • Figure It Out: No detailed instructions. No hand-holding. Survival depends on observing the machine's systems, understanding how everything works and learning from your mistakes.

  • Keep It Running: Monitor oxygen, engine temperature and other systems as you navigate the underground. It doesn't matter whether you are heading in the right direction if you run out of air.

  • The Machine Is Your Interface: In-world gauges and onboard systems provide the information you need. No floating objective markers or health bars.

  • Procedurally Generated Environment: Handcrafted locations are connected by procedurally generated stretches of unexplored mine, filled with hazards and uncertainty. You never know what the next section will bring.

Dig through collapsing rock and something far worse.

You're alone. The machine moans. The walls twitch. Reality slips.

This is no longer mining.

This is surgery...

and something doesn't want you to leave.

Built around isolation, dread, and the slow erosion of reality.
