Martia Termina
When the 193rd Mission to incapacitate the Martian military is announced as a success, you seize control of the UIF intranet to investigate what happened to the five soldiers left standing.
A 15-30 minute non-linear military sci-fi.
Created for the 2025 Bare Bones Jam using Super Videotome (further copyright information can be found in the README.txt). In the spirit of the jam, no extra assets nor UI changes were made in-game. Lose all senses, see no evil.

Content Warnings:
No big content warnings, you can rest easy (or not) knowing that there's no graphic imagery. That said, some events may prove distressing with mentions and depictions of body horror, physical assault, ableism, and otherwise adult themes.
Final Words:
Special thanks to Fletcher and Sailor for letting me use their likeness for the Embed BG, and an especially huge thanks to Fletcher for proofreading.
As it stands, you are required to view every log in a wave in order to unlock the next wave. At some point, I may adjust this so that you only need to view one or a specific combination.
However, I am so very tired and I wouldn't be able to finish this on the actual jam deadline day. 24 hours from now I'll be getting jiggy at a DJ set in Hackney. 'Cause God knows I've been hyperfixated on this project for too long. Whatever.
