## #mechanics

Goes up each time an [[alarm]] is triggered, is reset by returning to the safe zone.

When this hits maximum, it alerts the [[grunk beast]]. #maybe there are effects at other levels too.

This should NOT be displayed to the player while in-game, to increase anxiety (did I trip the alarm 4 times or only 3???). Player should get a HUD notification (!!GRUNK ALERT!!) when increasing, and the previous alert-level should be shown when resetting at the safe zone.

## #lore 

I like the idea of modelling this on the [Homeland Security Advisory System](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeland_Security_Advisory_System).
