I liked it so much at the beginning, Good job with this project!
Thanks for playing the game.
Fiew, really got scared on this one ! A lot of great ideas I'm really impressed !
Thanks alot, I am glad you like it.
Very interesting retro vibe!
-The atmosphere of the game is earie and spooky to say the least.
- Controls are crisp and I liked the zoom in/out feature
- Found the Level design quite confusing and very maze-like, makes it easy to get lost
- Wasn't sure what to do
Overall good job! 3.5/5
Thank you for the review, there is a maze you have to solve to get the good ending.
Super scary game, you created some great atmosphere with this. Honestly better than the other Backrooms games I have seen.
Wow thats a great complement, thanks!
Incredible atmosphere, nice gameplay. I really liked this one :)
Thanks for playing, glad you liked it.
This is why helmets are essential! I was fully freaked out playing this, lol stomach in a knot! Awesome experience and had no idea what to expect! Great work!
Glad you liked it, thanks for playing.
Everything about this game is cool, and very well executed. I loved it!
Thanks I really enjoyed your game too!
I made it out yay! Ill never skateboard again... Not like I did before, but still! Awesome work, great controls and sound design.
Thanks for playing!
Very cool concept. Great backroom vibes. Great game.
Thanks!
Always love a well made backrooms game, Great job.
Thanks glad you liked it!
Your game portrayed the backrooms pretty well. The atmosphere was tense and the VHS tapes were a good addition. It wasn't too scary, but a few well placed jump scares (especially in the maze) would definetely have gotton me. Well done :)
Yea, we wanted to do a monster but ran out of time.
The game is very well made in a lot of aspects:
The VHS filter is very good;
Your team captured very well the essence of the backrooms;
The audio effects aren't thaaat scary, but they surely are disturbing.
10/10. Nice game!
Thanks for the positive feedback!
Just wanted to check if anyone else has made a backroom game. Glad to see I'm not alone! I like the idea with vhs videos inside the game :)
Oh awesome, I will check your game out now!
Love anything analogue themed and backrooms is a fantastic space for horror. love being able to zoom in and out really gives it that found footage feel. Great stuff!
Thank you! I am going to give your game a go now.
