The story

You are on a night shift at a small television studio. The job seems simple: stay awake, look around, and wait out the shift.

You doze off for a minute or two. Then the screens turn red. All of the CRTs turn into 60 second countdowns. Hardware around you starts to fail, and the studio turns into a surreal fever dream.

Running between rooms you haven't seem before just to slow the count. Trying keep it from reaching zero just until your shift's over. Hoping, that when it is, the nightmare ends.

And if it does, try to figure this all out.

Gameplay
