This game has full controller support!

This is a prototype game intended to collect data for use in a study.

Quadrasylum is a 3D first person puzzle game, heavily inspired from the Portal games. 

You are Steven, a convict that was institutionalised because you pleaded insanity. In order to test your remaining cognitive ability and level of insanity; every day you are sent into new test chambers. You are tasked with bringing your companion, a cube named Kevin, from the beginning to the end of each chamber.

When you complete the game you will be brought to a survey, please use the link provided at that point. (If necessary you can use this link).

Collected Data:

This data will be used in my dissertation to provide references and analysis to answer my research question. During this research phase the game will not be playable without consenting to providing this data, however before the end of August I plan to make testing procedures optional, remove data collection from the game and delete all stored data.
