Baume
A downloadable Baume for Windows
You're a robot who works in a huge mine in a dystopian world. All workers are strapped on a rolling plate, forced to move on rails. One day, thousands of kilometers deep in the ground, the power goes out and you find yourself stuck in an abandoned part of the complex for several hours, not knowing what lurks in the shadows.
This is my first game ever, enjoy!
(The saving animation renders are a bit grainy because I didn't have time to render all of them at max quality, a single frame sometimes took over 30 mins to render. But it shouldn't affect your experience, it's the animation you see the least in the game)

Hey there! Sorry if this is a weird request, but I was wondering if you could send the metal groaning sound that plays at this timestamp. Your sound design work on this project is phenomenal, and I'd like to use the sample in something I'm working on. If you'd let me, it'd be greatly appreciated!
hey, thx for the kind words! I mean if your project isn't generating money yeah sure why not. Do you have a discord or a bluesky to talk about it?
Sure do! My Discord is "mikel_."
sent you a request
Haven't received it, be sure the period after the underscore is included! It's mikel_. , not mikel_
probably one of the best game ive played so far. I really enjoy the gameplay loop and the unique setup.
I do have a few gripes.
1: It seems that the tetris furnace minigame only counts the last screen you did for oil gain? If thats is indeed the case, id prefer if either the game allowed you to stack multiples by playing quickly or clearly communicated that you can only do one screen per oil bottle (depending on what behavior you want to encourage/punish)
Death can sometime be sudden, especially if the monster wasnt in your vision when it killed you. Making sure you get a kill animation would help the vibes a lot. (through i do appreciate that they dont scream at you, its one of my least favorite horror trope)
3: Its easy to miss that you need to pull the handle down to activate the radio, especially as everything else works with a button press. Having it better communicated would really help a first time experience.
omg thank you so much!! I 100% agree with everything you said, those are real issues I didn't manged to fix in time. And yes the tetris minigame only counts the last screen but it's not communicated well I agree. Making a smooth tutorial that explains everything well was the hardest part I think!
Yeah, tutorials are notoriously the hardest part to get just right and you did a pretty good job at making it both concise and engaging. A week or two of work and this game should be just right.
