SHEET METAL: 2142 Work Simulator
A downloadable game for Windows
2142 Work Simulator
You wake up in a rusted old room, and you're told it's time to go to work.
The job is easy. Assemble pieces of metal to build... something.
You don't know what you're building.
SHEET METAL is a short atmospheric mix of a walking simulator and a first person shooter inspired by the works of Mike Klubnika. The game was made in about a month or so but most of the development was completed for 7DFPS 2024, afterwards the game was updated overtime and was finished nearly a year later.

this game sucks dick but like in a really good way
This game was pretty fun and the atmosphere is immersive.
I saw this on your bsky today and just played it. I really liked the atmosphere, and the nailgun gameplay is weirdly satisfying (I think this is partly due to the excellent physicality of the sounds/metal sheet wobbling).
Good luck with the rest! I think you could easily get more than just one more day out of it personally, but maybe that's too much? You know better than me. :)
Thank you for playing!!
It seems like a trend that people actually want more of the game. I'm considering adding 4 or 5 days right now, so it could happen!
Thank you for the feedback!
When the metal sheet :steamhappy:
Really good atmosphere amazing graphics and soundtrack. The nice twist on the FPS mechanic is also really interesting! I am exited to play the full game once it releases, maybe even more days´, i feel like it wouldn't hurt the story to be stretched over a whole in game week. Keep that amazing work up!!!
i am awake, i swear![]()
Thank you so much for playing!!! I am considering adding more days... now that I have no more time limit I could really play with this...
Any updates and new releases will be published on this page, thank you for your feedback :)
