"The Other Side" is out now on Steam,
as part of the Unsorted Horror collection.

GAMEPLAY:

"The Other Side" is a puzzle horror game, where you secretly drill through a reinforced metal wall using a janky drill. You have to repair and maintain the drill throughout the process, using tools and other pieces of equipment to pinpoint and fix the issues that occur.

FEATURES:

  • 15-18 minute playthrough.
  • Jury-rigged drill that has many configurable components.
  • 10 pieces of separate equipment required to maintain the drill.
  • No hand holding. Undecorated terminal text will guide your path.
  • Original soundtrack by Jabbu.

STORY:

The game takes place in a cramped storage room inside a sprawling, windowless shelter built thousands of years ago. The smell of rust and decay lingers in the air. Nobody thinks about trying to go outside, because they don't know it exists. And those that do - they're quickly eliminated. There's a reason everyone is in this shelter, and the officers make sure everyone stays inside.

After an explosion blew on the surface level, in the doorless, windowless and cramped shelter, the crowd that gathered around all saw a glimpse of The Other Side. After the scene was cleared, and the hole walled off, over 200 people were killed. Nobody must know of the outside.

But they forgot one person.

Ever since, you've been fabricating a drill that can break through the reinforced wall of the shelter. Months of prototyping, noise complaints, bribes and close calls have lead up to this point. Today is the day you escape this hell, and find out the truth.

I Replayed This Game Earlier This Day, It Was Still Tons Of Fun

Somehow I got the panel for the oil stuck open while I was trying to screw it shut...And I can't figure out how to fix it, feels like I can't and have to start over.

Great game!

Love the world that this is set in.

This game delivers a perfect mix of dread and mystery! The atmosphere is intense, and the concept of drilling through the wall while maintaining the equipment adds a unique challenge.

really enjoyable, could use this concept for a heist game 

Love the anticipation of the game!!

Haunting.

Bro, this was a fun game. I hope you plan on expanding on it.

i am always moving backwards

this game is beatiful, its easily plays on your emotions, in the beginning you feel calm and bored, but then the alarm turns on and the timer begins before the arrival of the guards, along with the red light and the overpowering sound of sirens, you start to worry more and more every minute, and at one moment, you drill the entrance and see a beautiful field, with only a tree in the center, you approach him to soothing music, walk around him, notice a strange note, decide to read it to... and then, play for yourself to find out!

Great story. reminded me of Attack On Titan with the whole giant monsters on the other side of the wall. Super fun and I would love to see a longer more detailed version of this game or just one that is similar. 

spiders scare me 

It's a good game, but it lacks horror vibes and supernatural creatures. Overall I enjoyed it and the 5 minutes part is stressful XD. Keep it up.

WAS A BIT BORIMG

What a great game. A lot of work under pressure and looking over your shoulder when you are being timed. Game mechanics were engaging and the glimmer of hope at the end was a breath of fresh air that was short lived.

Atmosphere is very strong. Premise of the game is pretty simple yet gripping till the end. There's a great sense of isolation and dread in a room with drilling machinery. 

Your levels of curiosity and anxiety will increase incrementally. Sound design is outstanding.
