Escape From Violet Institute
Escape From V.I. is a 2D sidescrolling 1st Person Survival Horror game.
After an abrupt catastrophe rocks your workplace, you must attempt to flee to the surface as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, a peculiar artifact transports the player to a new dimension halting their escape.
What was once a simple passage to freedom, quickly becomes a dimension-hopping game of survival.
Encountering a plethora of horrifying monsters across multiple worlds, the player will discover, and face the truth about their own past.
The player only has 1 life with no checkpoints or autosaves (A save is made upon quitting to the main menu)
There are branching paths within the game, meaning the choices the player makes, affect the ending they get.
The game is frequently updated adding new content and fixes.

I will recommend to play this game at the $15 dollar pricepoint solely because of the immersion. I wont put this on the game at all cause it may be my inability to work a keyboard in to play but it seems a bit rigid on the 2D aspect of things but aside from a few hiccups it does play pretty smooth as far as controls go. I was extremely hesistant and doubted the purchase going through the 2D portion as well but when you get into the 3D side of the game everything seems to click. The game gets that much more exciting (even after reviewing the trailer) and i cant hesitate when I say it gets that much more scary. It is a perma-death type game but i wouldnt let that stop you from checking it out. When the transition from 2D to 3D happened I wanted to know more of what was going on.
