Signal in the Dark is a minimalist arcade survival game where movement is both your power and your greatest risk. You exist as a lone point of light in a black, vector-like world watched by hostile entities. The more you move, the brighter your signal burns — slowing the countdown and boosting your score — but that same glow draws enemies toward you. Stand still and you fade into safety… as time drains away faster. Navigate glowing corridors, avoid what’s watching, collect points of light, and survive the tension between being seen and running out of time.
