The story reminded me of the movie that came out earlier this year called Life which I thought was wicked! A couple of things to consider - For some reason it kept getting flagged by my antivirus (Avast)?? And gameplay wise only a couple of things, I think the player collider should be a lot smaller as I found myself running into doors as I was going back and forth to turn the ventilation on and off; and I also would have loved it if the 'thing' presented a bit more of a threat.
