About
Step into another dimension with YogLabs: Testing Initiative - where chaos brews and experiments never go as planned. You awaken as a freshly cloned copy of Honeydew, thrown into an unusual testing course of dangerous challenges. Can you survive the trials before disaster strikes and everything unravels?

Hi everyone! My name is Sergio, and Elsewhere is a game I’ve been developing since 2012. Since late 2018, I’ve been working on it nearly full-time. All code for the game is done by me, while the art assets are either done by me or by my more talented artist friends.
I’ve been a fan of the Yogscast for many years, and the core idea behind Elsewhere is to create a fully standalone game where players can embark on adventures reminiscent of classic Let’s Play series such as Jaffa Factory, Voltz, Moon Quest, and Hole Diggers, to name just a few.
So here’s my fan-made YogLabs adventure! I built everything myself and I hope you enjoy playing through it as much as I enjoyed making it! I would love to be able to add new episodes to the game (the 2nd one is on its way) so please show your support by checking out Elsewhere!

The game includes many references, jokes and secrets. Take your time and explore the lab.

nice game
This game is literally real life
YogLabs: Testing initiative is a free, funny, and entertaining mini-puzzle game, set in a Minecraft-style 3D world (plus lots of visual and audio references to the Portal games). There are achievements for both game progression, and for various mad-cap side quests. The game should be quite short, but I stumbled over a couple of the side quests (particularly collecting jaffa cakes) and got badly stuck on the parkour level, until I read Nivenn's excellent guide. I mentioned the similarity in style to Minecraft and, sadly for me, that also included lots of motion sickness which affects me in both games: I had to keep taking breaks from YogLabs, which also extended my play time. But, in spite of my discomfort, I thought the game was cleverly and lovingly made and I enjoyed playing it when I could.

this was free, so it's hard to complain about. but this is basically someone trying to do a spin off of Portal in a Minecraft game.
Very fun short game. Requires two attempts for all achievements.
