I really enjoyed this game but for whatever reason, I could not attack the experiments. Not sure what I was doing wrong. I had no issue with navigating through the levels. (I did have to keep checking the map/player location callout, but that's just my lack of experience keeping that mental image in my head. 

I really wanted to progress past the experiment though to see the rest of the game but no button combo worked to kill it (even after getting the key with stun gun)

I would love to hear how you get past this point to keep playing.  I feel like a learned a lot about menu navigation from this game giving the number keys the options to help keep information organized is so functionally smart.

Thanks for sharing your game, looking forward to trying again it if it's further developed.

Thanks for taking a look! The inspection options on numbers were a gamble, glad to hear it worked out for you. I might move them onto the ZXCVB keys, or maybe make it customisable. But the principle looks like it's staying

Please see the following excerpt from the official Zero State Strategy Guide (£14.99 from all good book shops):

To zap the first experiment you need to focus on it. Use the arrow keys to inspect the cells in the corridor - press down until you hear A2 (or is it A1?) announced which will tell you that the experiment is on that square. Then press the space bar to fire your stun gun and zap it! You can do this once per room that contains experiments from any distance. Well... unless it's a particularly strong experiment that needs a point blank hit...

ohhhh that's what it meant by focus on the enemy. I thought it meant move to the location or the location next to the experiment then hit action. That makes sense now!

That's on me. I was aware I wasn't being consistent with my terminology but life admin was getting in the way and I'd rather eat my own feet than record myself talking again. If I continue the project I'll do some proper writing and tutorialising then find someone competent to record the lines! Useful feedback, thank you
