Dahne’s Laboratory

Dahne’s Laboratory at eye level
At eye level, drawn from the game files.

R&D, with Dr. Dahne's office and the laboratory where the shrink and enlarging machines make one of you small. The small player places the circuit board's chips, mixes the resin at the desk and solves the 3D printer's floor grid, while the big player works the floor buttons and slots. You walk back through it in Chapter 4 and Chapter 6; in Chapter 4 the Director's cutscene plays here.
