Better Left Untouched

The containment facility Janitor finds themselves amidst the frantic fall of the laboratory. The janitor bolts for his safe janitor's closet and weeps until all the chaos subsides. But they know what they must do, escape with enough evidence to broadcast the reality of this treacherous situation! In an effort to avoid the indescribable horrors that lurk the halls, our valiant hero must grovel in the shadows. Navigating through the labyrinth; the player must balance standing in the light to maintain their sanity, and risk being seen by eldritch beasts. Additionally travel via the darkness causing you to spiral into insanity as means to avoid alerting the monsters of your whereabouts.

Note: If you die and the chase music continues even after you respawn, the way we know to fix it currently is to restart. Keep in mind this will probably reset your check points.

Be careful keeping it off too long, as you need your flashlight on to keep your sanity high, this is a balancing act of turning it on and off.
