Project Mirror

An experiment has escaped. The facility has fallen silent, its security systems are fragmented, and the surviving notes left behind by researchers only deepen the mystery. To escape, you must explore the environment, manage your sanity, recover access cards, and determine which gates they unlock.  
But survival is not just about avoiding danger.  Your sanity changes what you see.  
## Features  - A sanity-based gameplay system - Psychological horror with visual distortions and hallucinations - Notes and clues scattered through the environment - Gate puzzles based on colours and symbols - Access cards that unlock the correct path forward - Stabilisers and stimulants that alter sanity levels - An eerie facility setting with an escaped creature stalking your perception  
## Sanity System  Your sanity is a mechanic you must actively manage.  - **Stabilisers** decrease sanity by 25 - **Stimulants** increase sanity by 25  At higher insanity levels, the screen becomes more unstable with stronger distortion effects. At extreme levels, the player may begin seeing hallucinations of the escaped creature.
