IN THE WORLD OF THE SMALL, SILENCE IS A PREDATOR.

Nanomaly is a micro-horror survival game created in 7 days for the "Strange Places" Game Jam.

You are a microscopic repair drone dropped into a hostile ecosystem: a bedroom rug. To the naked eye, it is just a carpet. To you, it is a suffocating jungle of towering black fibers, roaming predators, and environmental cataclysms.

Your only tool is your ability to Shift Scale. But be warned: there is no safe size.

THE RULES OF SURVIVAL

  • SHIFT TO SURVIVE: Toggle between NANO size (0.05x) to hide in the dense fibers, and MACRO size (1.0x) to interact with heavy objects.
  • THE CRAWLERS: In the dark, red eyes watch you. They are blind but sensitive to sound. If you are small, you are prey.
  • THE ANOMALY: Every minute, the environment turns against you. A massive shadow sweeps the floor. If you are exposed in Macro mode, you will be eliminated.
  • PHYSICS PUZZLES: Use your mass in Macro mode to push obstacles and pave your path to the extraction beacon.

Super immersive and scary, I was very frightened while playing this game! However I didn't really understand what was going on, and I kept dying to the "Swarm" in the grass. A little bit more of explanation would be great! 

The physics were awesome and the lighting was perfect. This was a really neat game!

Thanks to your feedback I made things clearer. Thanks a lot 😄
