NightShift
A downloadable game for Windows
"Claustrophobic, tension-heavy gameplay with psychological horror elements."
You play as a part-time spaceship mechanic hired by the corporation Astrolink Logistics to transport a mysterious cargo across space. By day, you stay in the safe room (the only illuminated area), preparing for the night. By night, you must navigate the darkened ship, collecting scraps to repair broken machinery scattered around the map.
But remember, IT only gets worse...
Day Cycle (Safe Room):
- The only safe, well-lit area on the ship.
- Prepare tools, review objectives and read your employer’s emails.
Night Cycle (Navigation & Danger):
- The rest of the ship is darkened at night.
- Use a radar system to navigate and locate repair points.
- A mysterious danger stalks the ship at night—avoid detection or face dire consequences.
Complete your repairs and fulfil Astrolink’s contract while surviving the horrors lurking in the shadows.
Navigate in a claustrophobic Atmosphere: Explore a darkened, ever-changing environment where your only way to see what’s around you is through the radar.
Monochrome stylised 2D pixel environment: The game takes place in a minimalist aesthetic where shades of black, white, and grey dominate.
Experience a part time job that may go terribly wrong: A routine task descends into chaos, where every corner hides a lurking dread…will you survive the shift?

very fun, but i wish the radar saw just a bit further. i know part of the point is keeping you in the dark at all times, but i'd like to be able to spot lockers in advance so i'm not dying because i got chased by a creature into a room after trying to sneak past its patrol path into the room's seemingly only entrance.
maybe it just generated the map weirdly (assuming it's random which I imagine it is), but that just. i quit after that, spent all that time trying and grinding it out until that point.
Hi there!!! How are you? My name is Bárbara, and I really enjoyed your project! I was wondering if you’d be interested in having it translated into Brazilian Portuguese.
If so, feel free to contact me on Discord: @fokkenvarbie <3
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Unfortunately, Windows Defender is labelling the game as a "Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml" and blocking it. Their own explanation does mention there are often false positives, but either way I won't be able to play as long as it's labelled as such.
good game it had me jumpscared each time I would get slimed out. though right when I was in day 3, I just needed one more thing of the machine to get but it glitched me out of the map for some reason. I got mad and rage quit ksksks. I couldn't get back into the map.
This was so sick man, its been a few hours since i played it and i cant stop thinking about it. Absolute peak i hope u guys make more stuff. :>
Hello Guys, I was playing your game and really love how it looks. I am trying to build a little portfolio for Italian localisation. I would love to localise your game for free if you could just shoutout me in the credits. You can contact me here or on discord if you'd like better. Thank you very much for your consideration!

I’m glad I was able to play this game now, and this game is really fun! Has a straight to the point horror. And Pixel Arts! Definitely 10/10 well crafted, as well everything in this game, with love. Despite my trouble of navigating and remembering things, as a friend of mine as well witnessed, I still had fun playing the game.
Overall, a pretty dang good horror game I played, and will still likely be one of the underrated ones.
This was so good! I really hope yall make a sequel!
Google chrome blocked the download "Dangeroud download blocked" :c

I tried to download with Chrome and had the same problem, but Edge didn't give me any issues.
