Operation: Retrieval is a short horror game in which you must balance finding out where you are with the risk of the entity noticing you. Your objective is to find 5 datapoints spread across the map. Each datapoint collected will increase the chance of the entity noticing you...unless you proceed blind! 

Originally a hi-fi prototype of an upcoming university project I'm working on, I decided to flesh it out and make it into a proper small game since I enjoy working with PICO-8 so much. Graphics are inspired by Don't Dig Up the Dead. Hope you'll get scared! ;D
