Rust Laboratory: Signal Zero v0.1.0

Rust Laboratory: Signal Zero — v0.1.0

A new desktop investigation

This release transforms RustTextAdventure from a command-line prototype into Rust Laboratory: Signal Zero, a native Windows narrative mystery. Investigate a laboratory blackout, secure evidence, navigate the facility and decide what survives the incident.

Highlights

• A polished desktop interface with story actions, an evidence ledger, a facility map and a progress tracker.
• A complete branching mystery with gated discoveries and three endings.
• Local save files, local accessibility settings, scalable text, high contrast and keyboard controls.
• Offline-by-default operation with no account, cloud save or analytics SDK.
• Automated Rust quality checks and a Windows x86_64 build workflow.

Windows download

Verify the archive with the included .sha256 checksum before running it. The application is not code-signed in this release, so Windows may show a SmartScreen reputation notice.
