OVERDRIVE

THE DESCENT HAS BEGUN.

You are trapped inside the TBM-500/V4, a failing deep-earth boring rig. The mechanical safety limits are the only thing keeping the engine from melting down. But something massive is hunting you from the darkness of the tunnel above, and playing it safe will get you eaten.

Manage your heat, vent the suffocating carbon soot, and decide when to push the machine past its breaking point.

OPERATING MANUAL (CONTROLS):

[ A / D ] - Regulate Engine Pressure Valve

[ E ] - Open Exhaust Vents (Purges soot, but cuts forward momentum)

[ HOLD 900 RPM ] - OVERDRIVE. Force the valve past 100% to snap the mechanical governor pin. Maximum speed. Maximum risk.
