[Echoes] Corrupted Audio

It’s me. Employee A. Lately, when I get home, I sometimes hear footsteps that are slightly out of sync with mine. The moment I insert the key into the door, it feels like someone is standing right behind me.

changedLately, when I get home, I sometimes hear footsteps that are slightly out of sync with mine. The moment I insert the key into the door, it feels like someone is standing right behind me. When I turn around, no one is there. Only the sound of footsteps echoes through the apartment hallway. It’s probably just someone from another floor returning home around the same time... or so I hope.
changedNow, onto the main topic. We reviewed several audio files and found that some were corrupted beyond complete restoration. However, we managed to recover about ten seconds of analyzable data and decided to play it back. It sounds like someone breathing... unsettling, to say the least. I’m not sure which scene this audio was used in. The damage is severe, so it may not be usable in the main game—but I wanted to share this as part of our progress report.
