Imposters
At the start of the game 1 - 3 Players will be chosen to be Imposters. The goal of the Imposters is to kill all the crewmates and prevent crewmates from completing their tasks, they have a variety of tools to help them do this.
-The most direct way to eliminate a crewmate is to kill them, to do this a imposter must be close then press the controller trigger in VR or click the left mouse button on desktop. this instantly kills the crewmate but plays a sound that other crewmates can hear and leaves a chalk outline that crewmates can interact with in order to call a meeting without using a emergency meeting.
-The imposter can sabotage parts of the map using the sabotage menu by pressing Jump in VR or Q on desktop. in this menu the imposter can: close doors, darken the map by disabling lights, disable to Hud by sabotaging communications, or activate a reactor meltdown/O2 depletion giving the crewmates 30 seconds to fix it or die. each sabotage except the doors needs to be repaired by going to its associated location on the map and completing a mini game.
-Vents give the imposter a way to move around the map without being seen by other players, this can be used to escape detection after killing someone or to give yourself a faster way around the map.
Crewmates
At the start of the game Players that are not chosen to be Imposters will become Crewmates. the crewmates win if they complete all tasks or vote out all imposters.
-the crewmates have tasks to complete which are marked on your hud, each task requires you to complete a small minigame associated with that task, if the 'Visual Tasks' Modifier is enabled some tasks will have a visual element that other players can see, since imposters cannot do any tasks this clears you of suspicion.
-Crewmates can also vote out people they think are the imposter, to do this they must call a Emergency meeting or Report a dead body causing a meeting, they must then convince the other players that the person they think is the imposter is the imposter however this can cause you to accidentally kill another crewmate.
Emergency meetings
Emergency meetings can be called by players at any time by pressing the emergency button in the cafeteria a meeting will last as long as is set in the 'Voting Time' game modifier.
During a meeting, the crewmates must work out who is an imposter based on everyone's word, while the imposters have to try to fake innocence so they don't get voted out. the imposters can try to lie to make someone else seem guilty to get them voted out instead.
during the meeting everyone will be able to either vote on one player to be ejected or to skip using their vote. if a player has a majority of all votes against them they will be ejected, which kills them.
if all imposters are voted out the crewmates will win, however you can only see if a player was an imposter if you have the 'confirm eject' modifier enabled.
Trivia
- the laptop in the waiting room has several crewmate avatars for you to use in game, if you choose.
- Supporting Jar on Patreon gives you a a gold body outline when you die and a sparkly name in meetings
