9000INC: Night Shift

Clock in. Patrol terrible properties. Survive whatever management forgot to mention.

9000INC: Night Shift is a grimy retro security game about being under-equipped, understaffed, and assigned to properties where absolutely nothing stays normal. Patrol multiple locations, handle incidents, fight bizarre threats, customize officers and equipment, survive escalating modes, and eventually bring up to four guards into multiplayer shifts.

How to play

πŸ›‘οΈSecurity shifts

Patrol properties, respond to incidents, and survive whatever management failed to mention.

⚠️Escalating threats

Trespassers, anomalies, creatures, hostile incidents, bosses, and increasingly broken nights.

⌨️Desktop build

Separate downloads are available for Windows and Linux computers. Use the system labels below to choose yours.

πŸ‘₯Shared multiplayer

Invite up to three friends into a group shift. Everyone should use compatible releases from the same website.

Platform choice

Windows and Linux stay separate

Each successful desktop compile replaces only that platform's current download. A Windows build never overwrites Linux, and a Linux build never overwrites Windows.

Crossplay

Same game, same dedicated server

Web, Android, Windows, and Linux builds can share multiplayer lobbies when they target the same environment and use a compatible Night Shift multiplayer protocol.

Player guide

How to play 9000INC: Night Shift

Getting started

  1. Use the game’s opening training to learn movement, combat, pickups, and upgrades. Follow the current objective instead of expecting every mode to have the same finish condition.

  2. In patrol combat, your equipped weapons automatically engage threats in range. Keep moving, walk over drops to collect them, and choose an upgrade when your documentation level rises.

  3. For a group shift, open Clock In, then Multiplayer. Create or join a room, choose your loadout, and ready up. Friends should use compatible releases from the same website so they can find the same rooms.

Controls

Move

WASD or the arrow keys on desktop; drag the movement pad on touch devices.

Menus and upgrades

Click or tap the displayed choices. Read the in-game prompt for mode-specific interactions.

Patrol combat

Equipped weapons attack threats in range automatically; movement and positioning keep you out of danger.

Pause or back

Esc opens the pause menu during play or backs out of a menu.

Rules and modes

Health and objective

The top bar shows health and experience. The wave or objective bar tells you what the current area requires.

Reports and upgrades

Collect report drops for documentation experience. Level-ups offer a choice of three upgrades for the current shift.

Different assignments

Combat patrols, UNARMED shifts, and Story Mode have different goals. Follow their on-screen instructions and check the selected loadout before starting.

A useful first goal

Learn a short solo shift before joining a group. Keep a path out of crowded areas and collect useful drops when it is safe. Choose upgrades that support the equipment you brought into the shift.

If you get stuck

If a multiplayer room cannot be found, check the room code and whether everyone has a compatible release. If startup stops, include the displayed message, platform, and download version in a support request. Only enabled Play and Download buttons indicate a currently available release.

An older download may differ from this guide. Check the version and availability shown on the release page.
