SYSTEM BOOT SEQUENCE INITIATED

... ] Welcome to Deep Space Station Kepler-442. The median life expectancy of a new user is 8 minutes. Try to beat the average. You are a remote operative who just established an unauthorized neural link with a deep space facility that is actively tearing itself apart. Life support is plummeting, the blast doors are sealing, and Halcyon Dynamics Corporate would like to remind everyone that screaming over the open comms is highly unprofessional. The station's autonomous intelligence,

FAULTLINE

, insists a micrometeorite strike caused the catastrophe. But as you slice through the restricted archives, the bloody truth bleeds through the static. There was no meteor. They woke something up in the mines, and now the 847 souls aboard are getting a crash course in extreme workplace hazards.

AN UNSCHEDULED RESTRUCTURING EVENT

Welcome to Project: Chrysalis. Halcyon Dynamics didn't build a mining station; they built a multi-billion-credit petri dish. An ancient alien virus is aggressively "synergizing" the crew into a biological hive mind, and Corporate just dispatched a heavily armed stealth frigate to downsize the remaining witnesses. You have four hours to bypass the ICE, steal the evidence, and try not to get pureed by a rogue Autodoc because you clicked the wrong door.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

(FEATURES): Retro-Terminal Interface: Experience the apocalypse through a gritty, text-driven CRT operating system. It’s exactly like your real day job, but with more alien geometry and a 100% higher chance of your frontal lobe boiling from neural feedback. Interrogate a Corrupted AI: Try to reason with

FAULTLINE

, an advanced intelligence currently having a digital breakdown between its corporate NDA and the alien math melting its logic core. Uncanny Security Footage: Witness the chaotic final hours of Kepler-442 through corrupted, glitchy FMV security feeds. (Viewer discretion: Contains cheesy B-movie gore and surgical droids that do not accept your health insurance). Deep Corporate Worldbuilding: Decrypt classified emails, frantic crew logs, and incredibly cold HR memos reminding the crew that mutating into a geometric hive mind on company time is a direct violation of their contracts. 12 Unforgiving Endings: Become a whistleblower, a digital ghost, or succumb to the swarm. Every choice matters, and almost all of them will kill you instantly. The flesh is temporary. The corporate liability is eternal. Will you sever the connection, or dig deeper into the dark? Sign the waiver, establish the link, and try not to blow yourself up on a jammed locker.
