Blackout Protocol is an atmospheric horror-exploration game set within the twisted depths of Site 01 — a subterranean research facility that has suffered a major containment breach. Navigate dangerous areas haunted by anomalies, forgotten experiments, and time-warped remnants of the past.
You’re not armed — you’re hunted. Stay quiet. Stay smart. Stay alive.
Inspired by Valve's "Portal" and "Half-Life" franchises, LSplash's "DOORS", YourFriendZeal's "Pressure", and Lag Studios' "Spooky's Jumpscare Mansion".
We have a Discord, come talk to us for more information!! https://discord.com/invite/dnnBmWuyvC
As of right now, we're working on an Easter-related demo for the game until we finish the demo for the main portion.
After some consideration, we've chosen our VAs for the current cast! Thank you to everyone who has submitted their work, and we hope to open more positions in the future!
As of now, we still need a concept artist for the game.

This character will appear in our Easter demo as an unseen antagonist, only communicating through a P.A. system as you progress through his hedge-maze-like garden.
It looks like the evil forces of the conclave have come to taint our holy land, my brothers and sisters, vacate the holy gardens, we are releasing.. the bunny!
Persistant scum, trying to meddle with our business.
No! Get away from there! That is not for you!
Larry is the main threat of our Easter demo, being a man mutated into an Easter Bunny suit.
I want to go home.
YOU DID THIS TO ME!
Everything hurts.
The Automated Facility Information System (A.F.I.S.) is a rudimentary A.I. (No, not the bad kind.) that's supposed to inform employees and other facility personnel of information relating to Site 01.
Think of the announcer from Half-Life, or Portal 2 when it comes to this.
Attention, structural damage detected in: Facility Entrance.
Error, mainframe damage detected. Attempting reboot.
You're telling me.. a shrimp fried this rice?
Dr. Harrow will appear occasionally throughout the game, only being heard through the facility's P.A. system at key points.
Dr. Harrow's personality is almost akin to Wheatley from Portal 2. (Albeit, not a moron.)
Oh! Uh, hello? Testing.. yes, good, you’re alive. I mean, obviously, you’re listening, so, hi. I'm Dr. Harrow. I'll try to guide you through this mess, assuming we don’t both die.
Are you.. still there? Everything okay? Just checking. It's weird when the screaming stops, you know? Makes me nervous.
I tried recalibrating the cameras to get a better view of your location, but I accidentally zoomed in on a ceiling tile for 15 minutes. It was.. a nice tile.
Excerpt from in-game lore:
E-253 is a hostile, non-corporeal entity that manifests through electronic screens. It appears as a shaking, red-hued eye encased within a rough, shifting diamond frame. Once E-253 hijacks a screen, it begins broadcasting subliminal cognito-hazardous messages, compelling those who view it for prolonged periods to experience violent neurological overload.
Thanks for joining the broadcast. [Laughter]
Quit looking away.
Why are you resisting? It's only a matter of time.
As the concept artist, you won't really be asked to do much, designs for entities, ideas, etc.

The name of this role says everything, you can be a composer for the game!
You must be good at a few of these genres:
- Electronic
- Breakcore
- Slow Stuff
