Unreal Engine 5 is a state-of-the-art engine and editor with photorealistic rendering, dynamic physics and effects, lifelike animation, robust data translation, and much more—on an open, extensible platform that won't tie you down.

The Backrooms is an urban legend and creepy pasta that tells the tale of an endless maze of randomly generated office rooms. It is characterized by the smell of wet carpet, walls with a monochromatic tone of yellow, and buzzing fluorescent lights.

Ayyye, sound & music guy for the game here! First off, Fancy, I absolutely love how you put my little hound line at 4:51 lmao

It's such an honor working hard with you since you're so chill, and I'm really excited to continue chipping away at more sfx and soundtracks! Even more excited to hear my voice chasing some more YouTubers. >:D (And thank you for letting me help with this vid's audio, it means the world!)

Working in a game like this, especially on this sheer scale, is nothing short of my dream job. I genuinely can't thank you enough for making this possible (and enjoyable at that!) for not only me, but every single player. 💙

Im surprised how he can develop and edit a game by himself so fast

Imagine going underwater to find the cave and you hear
"Detecting multiple leviathan class lifeforms in the region. Are you certain whatever you're doing is worth it?"

Imagine just finishing a quick backrooms gaming session just to take off the headset and see moist carpet, bright yellow lights and never ending walls

5:07 he predicted 67 3 years before it became a thing.

VRchat has a good locomotion method for avoiding motion sickness. They have normal smooth locomotion and snap rotation, but they also have an option that is effectively a teleport for the player's camera, while the character model moves at normal speed in whatever direction is pressed. Could be worth looking into something like that.

this is probably the most accurate backrooms game I've ever seen, and it seems it's going to get even better with the idea of non-linear progression and canonical entrances and exits to different levels. I hate games that do it to where it's just make it to the end of one level and now you're in a completely different level for no reason, so I'm glad to see a change of pace with this one

Playing this in VR would be simply horrifying.

this guy started with a decently serviceable backrooms game, did well enough to probably live comfortably for a while, and decided "nah, we aint done" and is on track to making this BY FAR the best backrooms game

Loving how this game is being rolled out on time despite how massive game companies take years to make worse

I can’t believe that this man can manage to animate a buttload of commentary animations within 2 months

You should make the skin stealers able to steal and hold your ID if they kill you while you're holding it out, to make it more interesting and also maybe punish players that decide "Let's all hold our ID's out constantly, then we'll never have any problems".

You know you should make the thing on level 7 bigger. Because from what I know, the explorers who saw that creature have said that it's impossibly big and even it's head seems to be a few miles in terms of size. Now I know that making it unimaginably big would probably be hard, but at least make it 30 or 40 feet in size. That would be great you know. And also please make it big enough so that it can swallow the entire boat with the player on it
