Game Mechanics

Cryo Chamber unlock

The cryo chamber will automatically be unlocked after about 3:05 minutes.
There's nothing that can be done to open it earlier, but you can use the waiting time to complete other necessary tasks.

Calling for help

You have to call for help in order to not trigger the bad ending.
In order to do so you have to set the self destruct. Then go to the first floor of the station, thus triggering the destruction of the ship you arrived with. After that go back to the room where you set the self destruct and right click the screen on the wall left from the laptop.

Skipping events

Many events are based on a timer which starts as soon as you start a run. Therefore you can skip several of them by beeing fast enough, such as the power blackout or the spawning of the white monster.

Weapons

There are three types of weapons in this game:

  • pistol: little damage (1x)
  • laser weapon: medium damage (2x)
  • super weapon: much damage (3x)

If you have to rescue the survivor you have to pick up the laser weapon and ammo near the CD in order to kill the monsters faster and to have enough ammo to kill them all.

Difficulty

The difficulty changes several attributes of the monsters. The higher the difficulty the higher the monsters health, speed and damage they inflict to you are.


The Survivor

Rescuing the survivor

In order to rescue the survivor you have to bring her to the waste pod.
Go to the tunnel with the single elevator and wait for her to follow you. There is a monster spawner in that area, a monster will spawn when you look at the cryo chamber door.
You can start the elevator shortly before the survivor is completely in, she will be pushed inside in that case. You can make her move backwards by pushing her.
When she is close to the opened door of the waste pod she will automatically go inside and wait there.
After that you have to jettison the waste pod, the switch can be found in the same area where you set the self destruct. It is located behind the second door in the room with the laptop.

Fall between levels

If you push the survivor too early while inside the elevator she can fall between the two levels and walk around on the roof of the first floor making it impossible to rescue her.

Death

The survivor dies when you shoot her or a monster attacks her for a short while.
