Game's take on the theme
Exchange Exchange and exchanging plays a mayor role not only in the Lovecraftian story but on the gameplay loop. Position Exchange You would have to exchange the position of your soldiers often, since situations develop in different perimeters each turn of the game. Each member of the squad have different habilities that serve each situation in unique ways. As you enchange soldiers more backstory is reveal to you. Depending on the position of your soldiers events will play out in different ways. Ammo Exchange Lack of ammo and resources will play a mayor role on the combat. You will need to order that your soldiers look for and exchange ammunition for them to maintain combat efficiency. Gameplay Exchange The game exchanges gameplay styles constantly, from a visual novel or text based adventure, to a Camera Mode similar to FNAF to an RPG Persona-Inspired Combat System. Exchange of Codes There are codes given to the player at the beginning of the game. The player have to exchange the codes with the rescue team to check on their identity. You will have to make decisions based on this information. This can lead to one of 4 different endings.
Did your team create the vast majority of art and music during the game jam?
Yes most of the art, music and code was created during the game jam, we only used a couple of old backgrounds and sprites for a couple of cameras, and modified old code for specific things like animation, but almost everything else is new.

The art is absolutely incredible, great job!!! Congratulations.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to leave a review! Glad you liked the game.
Gorgeous art, engrossing sound effects, and a creepy story. I am not sure if it quite fits the themes of the jam, but it is an impressive work nonetheless.
Tks! Im glad you liked it!
