Story

You have applied to participate in a very lucrative, but dangerous experiment. You have traveled to the mysterious, newly-built research facility, most of the devices and resources are still unpacked in big boxes around the rooms. The chief scientist put a strange helmet to your head. You have fallen asleep. While you were sleeping, an unidentified object crash-landed near to the entrance of the facility. The scientists managed to seal the door with wooden planks, but the aliens could somehow warp-in the room. They abducted the scientists and patrolling in the rooms wearing a strange electro-magnetic force-field to protect them. Since they only see the brain-waves of humans, they can't see you while your special helmet is on. But don't get close to them, since their suit is highly charged with electrons that can hurt you.   Night of the Ball Lightnings game is about what you see after you woke up...
