Guard Duty was made in 48 hours and submitted for the GMTK game jam 2023 and is a unique take on a stealth experience. You play as a nameless guard – guarding a very stereotypical facility and when the lights go out, you have to pick up the slack and find the man infiltrating your floor. Listen out for clues, and watch in horror as your comrades get picked off one by one. All you have to do is spot the infiltrator with your flashlight, but you better find him before he finds you.


The infiltrator can travel through secret vents, hide in lockers and put people to sleep from behind. In order to win you need to listen out, explore and be diligent. If you suspect the infiltrator is hiding in a nearby locker – you better hope you have a stun grenade otherwise it’s a stealth take down. As your flashlight depletes it gets dimmer and dimmer – making your job ten times harder and the infiltrator a lot more dangerous, keep your flashlight stocked with batteries to stay as safe as possible.

All 3D assets and code created by a team of three within the 48 hours. Exclusions being character animations & SFX.
