Okay, so the launcher still doesn't work. I am still having the same issue with it downloading properly however, I did download the archive version and that does work. I must say, I have played the vast majority of liminal space / backrooms games and this game has so much potential. The feel of that ominous atmosphere hits. Visuals are fantastic. Of, course be it a wip, there are some bugs and unfinished levels. Regardless of everything not being finished I do have high hopes for this game. I feel that once complete, this has the potential to be one of thee best games of this genre. I will be in it for the long haul. Wishlisted on steam and am anxiously waiting for further future updates. To Can, keep up the amazing work. You've done an outstanding job this far.
hello, i remember playing this game like one year ago and i had one of the best backrooms experience ever. I wanted to play it again today so i downloaded the new launcher and started the game.After hours im still inside the backroom bouncing betwen the halloween tv and the radio. I give up, cannot find the exit. why now is so difficult to find a way out to a new place? Atre 2 day trying i guess i give up. maybe there is no exit? Anyway i used to like this backroom and i wanted to make a new video for my youtube channel but i guess i won't.
Having an issue with the launcher. When it loads it starts to download the game. When it hits 4gb on the download it jumps to 5.2gb when it's only a 4.31gb download. Then it downloads to just under 9gb. says 100%.The game loads and you can hear the audio. But the screen stays black and no video loads. I even typed play to see if it would just load the play file, but even then, the audio loads but no video.
This might be the worst backrooms clone I've ever played. It's just a small forest map and that's it. If there's some secret method to trigger the next level or whatever. Then you've honestly failed as an indie developer.
It is heavily work in progress and many features and gameplay mechanics are missing in this initial release. I will add them again gradually. Read the new posts
For now you need to type PLAY and the Level name you want to access, like PLAY LEVEL 0 PART 3. I will add transitions later one by one, first from the Forest Scene into the first part of Level 0 and so on. They will all be connected with gameplay that currently is not made, so it needs time to finish. The release, for steam that is, is set for the 25th December and the game will be patched after that as well.
Also the game is free, so no obligation to play and feel betrayed.
I'm confused on the newest version of how to get past the very first house area. I've tried doing what the earlier version does, but nothing seems to trigger it.
The game is still heavy in development, and many features and gameplay mechanics are missing in this initial release. They will follow, a bit more patience
In the Menu Scene, when writing the Command PLAY it will start the Intro Scene that leads to the Frontrooms (e.g. PLAY FRONTROOMS). But when you write Play and any of the available Levels in the following List it will get you to that Scene.
Try PLAY EARTH
Intro
Menu
Earth
Frontrooms
Level 0
Level 0 Part 3 (contains Subscenes Async & Lab)
Level 0.1 (contains Subscene Backstage)
Level 4
Level 6
Level 7
Level 8
Level 9 (contains Subscene Level 0.4)
Level 10
Level 37
Level 94
Level 95 (Emtpy)
Level 231 (contrains Subscene Level 188)
The End (Empty)
The Hub
EARTH LEVEL:
Press the number buttons 1 to 8 to get to hotspots around the world and see the cities through the lens of Backrooms VHS and its filters.
In the old version in the archive the player dropped after a minute and switched to the level 0. Now it is nothing and I will add an animation of the playable character that after it is played wil drop into the Backrooms, so you will not be able to walk and move on your own in the future, so enjoy the forest and check out the other work in progress maps or wait for when I have a finished build to deliver
I cant wait for another update and the full release, this game has everything going for it, I hope this game will be even better than I think of it right now, love this game dude, also, enjoy this trailer I made :)
please noooo, don’t do this. The atmosphere is perfect and a monster would be too over the top. There’s plenty of back rooms games with monsters already 😭
For some weird reason, sometimes when I hit a random thing on my keyboard at the start where it gives you codes or something. it starts to bug out and I don't know how to fix I.
Hello so I am trying to join friend and my character makes it into the game but I am still on the typing screen to join... do you know what I am doing wrong?
Hey, the game looks perfect, but the moment I start it, after the logo Screen the screen turns black and the green text is blink intermittently without being able to do anything
Ohhhhhh! Okay I gotcha. That makes a lot of sense that it's an alpha. I try to go into the games as blind as possible and I guess I missed that part. I had a lot of issues that held up the video being made so I'm pretty sure I played the game before the beta was out, sorry about that!
yeah, thats the current version of level 6 where you have to walk torwards the ocean sound to teleport or just press num-key 4. I will change that level and make it possible to use your flashlight with some struggle, where it irregularly shines light with a lost place like complex for it.
I intuitively walked towards the sound of the ocean, but nothing happened, the sound was very loud and I tried to jump. I even restarted the game a couple of times.
Been following this project for a bit and I can wholeheartedly say that I think by the time this game is ready for it's release it's looking to be one of the best pieces of backrooms media when it comes to atmosphere.
The sound, the camera controls, the look of it all, it just looks and sounds so good! Congrats, really, keep up the good work!
I am in absolute love with the feel and look of this! The atmosphere is perfect! I love the attention to detail like how you can hear the character's pants rubbing together when you run. It's just perfect. I don't know how else to describe it ^_^ (playthrough starts at 22:42)

is the game supposed to be low fps or is my pc trash?
it is your pc

Can you provide me the log files inside the launcher folder, and maybe create the debug report in the settings. Thanks

maybe if you had an attention span higher than 3 seconds you would realize there's more to the game
Most people these days can't last through a simple playthrough without a bunch of memes cluttering the screen to occupy their baby brains.
I'm confused on the newest version of how to get past the very first house area. I've tried doing what the earlier version does, but nothing seems to trigger it.

This game is very real
Oh yeah so system start start start there -- the whole
M.E.G preparation for entry into the BACKROOM

make it possible to pay to gety this gaem be cause then its cheap
Pls make tutorial about movement(camera shake) PLSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Very well done with the visuals and I did like the length of the game! Thanks
can you add a monster please?
please noooo, don’t do this. The atmosphere is perfect and a monster would be too over the top. There’s plenty of back rooms games with monsters already 😭
This game doesn't need a monster. Here everything works on the atmosphere, there are so many games with monsters, and without them it’s rare.
cant play the video is turning black and screen starts blinking
what do i need to do?
For some weird reason, sometimes when I hit a random thing on my keyboard at the start where it gives you codes or something. it starts to bug out and I don't know how to fix I.
then dont hit them

There is no Entitys For The Game Beta?
good game
this game needs death slides!!!
You played the alpha :D. There is currently the beta available, but it is a bit buggy
Ohhhhhh! Okay I gotcha. That makes a lot of sense that it's an alpha. I try to go into the games as blind as possible and I guess I missed that part. I had a lot of issues that held up the video being made so I'm pretty sure I played the game before the beta was out, sorry about that!
No problem. Great video as well.
bro, i just have a black screen with sounds after passing level 0
yeah, thats the current version of level 6 where you have to walk torwards the ocean sound to teleport or just press num-key 4. I will change that level and make it possible to use your flashlight with some struggle, where it irregularly shines light with a lost place like complex for it.
I intuitively walked towards the sound of the ocean, but nothing happened, the sound was very loud and I tried to jump. I even restarted the game a couple of times.
the camera walking animation is kinda buggy when you play at high fps
my game crashes after the async intro
VERY GOOD SO FAR! I love the graphics! I would just like to know if there is an objective to this game and how to complete it?
yes add entity plz bacteria ect ect and thanks for devs
pls add and entity in this game, it looks amazing, but still a very little boring. thank you for developing :)
Can you add entities to the game? Without entities the game has no point...
It is a milestone and currently work in progress.
