The Pill
A downloadable game for Windows
A debut project created by a solo developer to learn, experiment, and explore Unity.
The Pill is a short, PSX-style psychological anomaly horror experience. You are trapped in a looping, decaying environment. Your only job is to observe and survive the distortions. What seems normal now might be an anomaly later.
RULES OF SURVIVAL:
- If everything appears normal, you may rest.
- If you see ANY anomaly or change... is it real? A PILL MIGHT HELP.
KEY FEATURES:
- Authentic PSX visual aesthetic: CRT distortion, low-poly models, and gritty textures.
- Event-driven anomaly generation. Every run is unpredictable.
- Estimated playtime: ~10 minutes.
CONTROLS:
- [W, A, S, D] - Move
- [Shift] - Sprint
- [E] - Interact
