A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

Welcome to the casino!
Time is money here, and when you run out, you're dead!
There is no way out. Stop looking!

Controls:

WASD / Left joystick = move
Mouse / right joystick = look around
Space / right bumper = action button / jump

Content Guide (Spoilers, read after initial playthrough or if you get stuck)

Lucky machines (red arrow) can be played if you jump on the seat and press jump to spin the slots again - there are two possible outcomes: you get fruit and money OR you get bombs and all rats will pathfind to your location for the next 10 seconds.
There are 10 lucky machines in the casino and they change everytime you play slots.
Coins can be picked up to increase money.
Every 2 minutes or so a "jump scare will appear"
Banner messages after the first 3 are random and happen every couple of minutes.
Neither the banner messages nor jumpscares have bearing on gameplay
Finally, the rats are saying "give me yo cheese"
