Wow this is awesome! A VR horror game that happens entirely in a non euclidian space the size of a room would be very cool

[@bjgames2842]

I think it's called "shattered lights", they do this perfectly, you size up your play area before starting the game and it will resize the play area to suit. So if you have the smallest possible play area it will still work. It was such a cool concept when I first played it, feeling like you just keep moving through different rooms when you're really just circling the real room your in.

I'm quite surprised such technology hasn't really been used in mainstream games, to replaced loading screens, area transfers, or just to create interesting puzzles.

[@seeker296]

Probably too hard to make and uncomfortable to play

[@t2force212]

Loading screens aren't just to get you in a separate cell. Their main purpose is to load and unload alot of things in the world space that aren't needed at that moment so as to save on processing power, therefore allowing the game to run more smoothly or with lower grade hardware.

[@NoobDeveloperPrime]

@@t2force212 I know, but considering processing power of modern hardware, and also the fact that majority of games these days are taking place in huge, open worlds where assets are loaded in either immediately upon starting, or using various rendering tricks, developers still for some reason use loading areas, when there isn't really anything to load. Like Lara Croft games, or Far Cry or whatever, when developers have you just crawl through some cave for a minute or two. Of course, there is some loading of assets happening, but for the majority of the time it's more about controlling the pace of the game, rather than actual processing. It simply would be much more interesting to circumvent that with such non-euclidean spaces, rather than just holding "W" for like 2 minutes while your characters crawls through the cave for no reason.

[@de_rby]

would do nothing for loading screens, it’s still the same amount of data that needs to be processed (and split up by loading screens)

“I can cram an infinite amount of space into any finite space” sounds like such a flex

[@airplanes_aren.t_real]

I heard about a campaign that had a similar idea a long time ago, the basic premise is that you are trapped in what is essentially an infinite mansion with all the maids in the kingdom trying to serve their masters (which aren't there) by doing random things and hoping that it will work in an endless cycle of servitude so your party has to put an end to the one who did this, i think that the dm had to make 100-200 different rooms each with new rules and conditions (they were doing it through discord using to a lot of writing talk boards to get ideas), on the second last room you find a teleportation device that sends you to the top of the mansion which puts you face to face with the demon queen, assuming you win, you will find out that she used hundreds of mana boosters to summon all the maids in the kingdom but she miscalculated the amount of mana and ended up creating the mansion with the non euclidean space

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

@@chaosmorris5865 That depends on how used to it players are able to get. That would only happen if it's already widely used, which is unlikely, but it could occur gradually on a small scale. Then developers could choose whether and how to implement it in their games in ways that improve the experience (or don't, depending on your opinion). In any case, it's highly situational, and would almost certainly remain niche. My point was purely that you shouldn't dismiss the concept so quickly, since there's nothing about it that's objectively different from normal space.

[@LaserBread]

I think the idea of expanding rooms for more accessibility. However, I think it would be less disorienting if you had a logical explanation as to why this happened. Imagine a game where you have to do things in different rooms. You could have a non-euclidian mechanic that looks like it is in euclidian space, say, each room has a staircase that goes up or down. Walking through the staircase brings you to the next room.

I use to do this with the old Descent Engine to really F with people's perspective. The way maps work in decent is rooms are simply connected by the facing. Thus you could have a larger room attached to door in a smaller room. One of the PvP maps I made was giant room with a cube in the middle and on each side it had a long tunnel which took you to another version of the room. So there were 4 versions of the room with the top opposite sides going to the same same room which were color coded for easy reference. Thus the Blue room would have a cube in the middle that was Red, Green, and Yellow signifying that the tunnel on that side went to those rooms. It was also fun making mazes similar to that 6 room circle shown in the video to completely screw with people's perception. This was back before inet days so mainly just shared maps on local BBSes. Though this engine can do a bit more as the Descent engine was still limited to being based orientation. Thus you could enter a 6 room house but the exit of the 6th room would be on the opposite side as if you had made a loop and a half to reach the door. The pillar thing was something I also did though I didn't have a pillar and instead had nothing there. So as you went around the circle it looked like the outside walls were changing colors and it eventually looped back on itself. It was odd to see someone on the other side of the room fly to the right and suddenly disappear halfway across the room. For those that don't know Descent was an old 3D Space Ship fighter game that took place in an underground mining system, hence the name. I doubt the developers originally intended the use I did as when messing with a map editor I noticed that I could overlap the rooms and they didn't actually merge in the space of the game thus it allowed for the crazy stuff I did. ;)

I used to pretend that pillar mechanic was a real life thing when I was a kid. If I were following my mom thru a crowd, I’d need to weave in between the same people she did or I’d end up lost in a parallel dimension.

[@Noah-wx7fm]

Woah yeah! I used to believe that whenever I went through these two trees in my front yard, I would be transported to another world!....... that just happened looked exactly like the regular world😅

[@samanthaqiu3416]

as a kid is a reasonable guess. You never know what dimensions are there in the universe you are born

[@deihuey6959]

There is actually a short-horror story about that, it goes somewhat like this: "When I was a child I used to believe that spin-jump in front of a mirror will take me to a parallel universe. I don't know if I even came back the last time." Sorry if it doesn't have a 'horror vibe', but I am writing from memory, tried to find the story but didn't have luck.

This seems to be something a lot of us believed in some shape or form.

I'm imagining a horror, survival game that doesn't advertise it's non-euclidian geometry, and it has it in the most random spots. imagine just finding some little hut that appears to have four rooms, but then you panic when the door suddenly disappears, and you keep running around, not yet realizing you're going deeper into the infinite space. That's just one little idea that pooped up in my head and I know for a FACT horror games, if any, will be the ones to push this concept to its limits.
