Thanks for the help. I was trying to go around the pool to get the key, but with the limited lighting, I couldn't tell it was on the other side of the wall. I did manage to get it a couple times but only once could I grab it and leave the room without the thing getting me. I tried maybe a dozen times to beat this, but the flashing lights just got to be too much for me. I also ran into a bug where restarting the game after dying to the meat wall kept all the lights out in the hallway and the locker room. Quitting and restarting worked fine though.
It's a good effort, and for a first game pretty impressive, but I just don't have the eyeball stamina to see it through to the end.
