THE LAB


In this short retro-style horror game you play as a security guard working at a mysterious laboratory. Your job is to oversee the worksite and keep all the doors closed, but soon you realize that you are not alone.


This game has 3 different endings, can you find them all?


Controls

  • WASD - move
  • f - flashlight
  • rmb - interact / close door / use item
  • e - pick up item
  • backspace - back to menu

If the game does not load properly and you just see stars, just press backspace and start again.

The game was originally called "twelve hour shift", but thanks to some feedback I realized the game was far too long and boring, so I renamed it and shortened it to about a third of its original length. I hope you enjoy it!

This is something interesting. It's a concept, but a good one. I only got one of three endings, but I liked what I saw. Secret labs and forbidden experiments is an always welcomed theme, especially when executed right. That "1 life form outside" while I was inside is exactly what I'm talking about.

This one is short and sweet, you got something here, dev.

Thank you so very much for the kind words!

Interesting concept. Tension was really well done as well as the mystery of what's behind the doors. Good stuff !

I made a video on your game if you would like to watch :)

Thank you so much for playing! <3
