  URGENT PROTOCOL OVERRIDE 

================================================

> [DIR: /ABOUT_THE_INCIDENT.TXT]

Deep within the Benthic zone, the Dominion of Iterative Cellular Kinetics (D.I.C.K.) pushed the limits of evolution using the Catalyst Ω artifact. The experiment failed. The flooded corridors of Alpha-1 are now crawling with hyper-mutated subjects. You are one of them. With no working legs, you must literally drag your dead weight through the dark to survive.

> [DIR: /CORE_MECHANICS.EXE]

[MANUAL_CRAWL]: No WASD. Use your mouse to physically aim your only working arm, grab the floor, and haul your heavy body forward.

[TACTICAL_RELOAD.BAT]: Pressing 'R' won't save you. Open your inventory, eject spent casings, grab bullets one by one, and manually chamber them while monsters approach.

[PHYSICAL_DEFENSE.INI]:Grab and drag heavy crates, metal debris, and furniture to build physical barricades. Enemies cannot pass until they break them down.

[LIGHT_DETECTION]: Dynamic lighting dictates survival. Hide in the shadows, move during the flickering of broken lamps, and use muzzle flashes to spot threats.

>> SURVIVAL_WAVE (P2P Co-op/Solo):

DAY_PHASE: Barricade doors and scavenge supplies. 

NIGHT_PHASE: Emergency lights engage. Survive the escalating mutant waves.

>> DEATHMATCH_PVP (P2P):

Test your visceral motor skills against other players in a brutal, one-handed duel where every manually chambered round counts.

================================================

SYSTEM WARNING: DEVELOPMENT STATUS IS [DEEP BETA].

Core mechanics, physics, and P2P networks are being tested. 

Expect data corruption, bugs, and missing lore files.
