About This Game

COMMUTATOR is an instrument-only horror game set in a dystopian future where human perception is replaced by sensors and code. You are an operator sitting behind a terminal, guiding a remote unit through the darkness.

FEATURES:

- Blind Navigation: You cannot see the world directly. Rely solely on your radar, compass, and distance sensors to navigate the labyrinth.

- Maintenance Protocols: Perform routine tasks such as cleaning apartments and repairing data nodes. Follow the text-based interface to interact with the environment.

- The Unknown: Interpret strange signal readings and corrupted logs. Just because you can't see the threat, doesn't mean it isn't watching you.

- Analog Aesthetics: Immerse yourself in a claustrophobic atmosphere of green phosphor monitors, ASCII art, and humming servers.

Screenshots represent work in progress. Interface elements are subject to change.
