You wake on the ground. No wreckage. No chute. Nothing left to do except survive.
Brutal Loop is a first-person survival hike, not an infinite sandbox. There is one land, a handful of silent vending huts, wolves, a pale thing that hunts the high ground, and a way off the mountain if you can reach it.
Nights last fifteen minutes. Shelter and fire matter. The first crest you find may not be the one that counts.
## Play
- New World. Look north — a cabin. The letter points east.
- Pause → Keys lists every real bind. There are no cheat keys in this build.
- Windows: unzip and run `brutal-loop.exe`.
