"Carbon Steel" is an experimental puzzle horror game, where you conduct unethical research in a hastily rebuilt laboratory. Work out how to operate miscellaneous machines, cross-check data tables and procure general anaesthesia. The difference between life and death can be any overlooked detail.

And that's why I support communism
If communism were in power, there would be no private properties to try to make pressure treated humans

Short game, but manages to engage the player. A Lore worthy of further exploration, and the mechanics of producing a serum for research, puts us very well in the protagonist’s shoes.
eu gostei bastante de toda a parte de ficar trabalhando nesse laboratorio bizarro e o clima hostil do jogo. achei o final meio decepcionante mas não sei bem como terminaria também, ou se dá pra expandir esse gameplay pra algo maior e tal, mas foi realmente interessante.
My comment on the itch.io game page:
"Really great experience, I love the textures, general ambience and shadows, not too dark but dark enough where it needs to be.
As some said, the work loop flows really well and keeps the player engaged, it's nice to interact with the lab appliances and do the little things that commonly are scripted actions/animations in most games.
Now this point here is maybe really personal, but it took me a while to notice the anesthesia lever, sometimes those things that are right in your face you end up missing/not seeing, thinking it's something else you're doing wrong by tunnelvisioning something else, in my case i thought I was not understanding the buttons, mainly because of the way the instructions were displayed, with the X indicating the button position, I misunderstood it and thought it was some sort of puzzle lol
Nice dream sequences, really liked the blue sky, contrasted by the ugly ceiling upon waking up, it's very relatable.
Thanks for the game, has really fun overral"
