I urge you to playtest Abiotic Factor, a survival game about scientists trapped in a vast underground black site

So you're a scientist who works in one of those science-fictional giant underground research facilities—your Black Mesa, SCP Foundation, The Loop, what have you—and the day arrives where the big science catastrophe goes down and everyone's dying left and right and there's a horrible cascade of alternate dimensions and weird aliens pouring in. That's the setup for Abiotic Factor, an upcoming solo to six-player survival game that you can playtest for free, right now, via Steam.

For the non-science types among the readership, an abiotic factor is a non-living something that shapes an ecosystem. Weather, for example, or soil type. Presumably the abiotic factor here is "shattered boundaries between dimensions."
