the problem is that people tried to turn the Backrooms into the SCP founation with none of the skill or quality control

[@Emme_Umbra]

I think the reason why some people mistake your character for a sonic OC is because of the face shape. The face shape and style is similar to the sonic art style because of how the eye shape and whiskers are common in the sonic style

[@Ascera_exists]

I know it does have a bit of unintentional Sonic vibes but I know it’s Security Breach and not Sonic

[@mrtyler603]

i mena dusky do be looking like surge from sonic

[@mrshin8035]

The character design strikes me as an inbetween of sonic and freedom planet, leaning towards fp (which is understandable conidering what shes worked on). The way her face is constructed its a bit closer to sonic mainly due to the muzzle shape, while the proportions of the body are alot closer to that of freedom planets art style, as the characters in that game have a bit more bulk in the rest of the body relative to the head, at least compared to sonic characters.

[@gusty7153]

@@mrshin8035 to be fair, only the head and face is actually important for a sonic fan char, the body can look like anything unless one is specifically trying to emulate exact character models and promo art. both archie and idw comics have a wide variety of body shapes and proportions for most side and background characters, occasionally idw series will sneak in cameos of webcomics and other franchises that have nothing to do with sonic. though often i like to make the argument that sonic chars are just regular furries using a particularly identifiable toony style and can pretty much be used for any char that isn't sonic related at all. also i sometimes like to make a comparison with old vintage toon style and that sonic style is just an evolution to that vintage toon style that nobody noticed before since sonic chars and fan chars are so colorful

Canon being a thing for the backrooms has always seemed silly to me. I hear people argue about what’s canon and what’s not, even though the backrooms isn’t a series, it’s a prompt. It’s one photo and a short description that you can turn into whatever you want

The intended fear of the backrooms is imagining you were trapped in a dimension - alone. No food, no water, no monster, no peers, no way out. All you can do is walk and pray you'll find an exit. If we go by the casino handbook, blocking out windows and keeping the area fullbright will lead you to losing track of time. You will walk for minutes and think it had been hours, once you force yourself to sleep on the soggy carpet you'll wake up a few hours later realising the true horror of the situation. The fear of the Backrooms cannot be translated into video game form because you are healthily (debatebly) sitting at a desk interacting with, at best, a walking simulator. At worst, it's a survival-puzzle horror. The fandom theories read like a desperate attempt to turn the Backrooms into an SCP. I remember loving the concept, but the more I think about it, the more it sounds like the 'Infinite IKEA'. The 'Infinite IKEA' canonically has a population of thousands trapped inside the warehouse, hunting IKEA staff and forming tribes.

[@darienb1127]

Side tangent, but anyone else find that having all of this lore to the Backrooms kinda weakens it? What makes Liminal Horror so good is the sense of warped nostalgia. The feeling that you've been here before... but have you really? Everything feels wrong, like the space around is using your memories against you, making you questiom everything. That being said, I could see a really good Backrooms game that uses the lore by randomizing the floors you end up on. You might know what the floors are and do, but you'll never know WHICH floor you have to deal with next.

I’m so happy this is topic being touched upon because the backrooms is one of my favorite concepts that is SORELY, ATTROCIOUSLY butchered by the majority of these indie horror devs and the surface level enjoyers of the backrooms that play them. The horror the backrooms is so much more than just monsters in a place with too many hallways and fluorescent lights; its dread is a concept not a physical entity And even the popular backrooms games are pretty much the ones I despise the most, *because* they’re popular and contributing to diluting the concept of the back rooms the most.

[@heatherschaefer5529]

It's such a simple, terrible, stark and lonely and horrifying idea, and the fandom instantly decided there were 2000 themed levels and named monsters and entire communities living in the Backrooms and completely ruined it. Like, my dudes, not everything needs LORE and expansion and complication. It was fine just as it was.

@@GlamrockDuskyooh!! Good to know! Thank you^^ love your content btw

[@Beepers559]

(Excuse how wordy this post will get) Personally I feel like the horror can work if there’s something (or somethings) there, but you just don’t know where it is or if it’s even there to begin with. I admit I do like the concept of monsters in a maze, heck I even like the “layered cake” concept of the backrooms with multiple sections (levels, layers, whatever the community wants to call it) even my own variation of the backrooms has levels, though I tried making them “biomes” in a sense. Though there is a point where it’s too much, the labyrinth didn’t have a dozen Minotaurs after all, and while I personally don’t mind there being monsters, the backrooms doesn’t need to be a funhouse full of ghosts saying “boo” at you. Heck one of my favorite creators for this content, lost in the hyperverse, managed to make their variant of the backrooms empty but still have something that’s an actual danger. As for some ambient entities like kitty, yeah I don’t mind them too, but again restraint is necessary so they don’t either overstay their welcome, or detract from the horror, heck they could even add to it (imo) by adding false senses of security, being blindsighted because you either never actually saw anything or didn’t encounter anything that’s a threat could do something. To try and wrap this mess of a comment in a neat-ish bow, I never really liked the “elitism” (or whatever one would call it) of both sides the fandom has, the backrooms to me shouldn’t exclusively be one thing or another, since the same scary thing wont always scare two people at the same time. The world’s your oyster. (Excuse how out of left field this might be, I just saw this and thought I’d throw a couple cents at it)

[@jakefromstatefarm8964]

You know, I don't usually watch a whole lot of png horror game video essay channels. I find that a lot of narrators are just sort of corny or worry too much about being yt-friendly that they just feel stale. But I'm really enjoying your content so far! The videos are well put-together visually, the scripts have jokes that actually land and are funny instead of too cheesy or something, and your voice and line delivery have a certain charisma that adds a lot to the video instead of being annoying or stale. You sound confident and fun, which is big considering that a lot of youtubers are too nervous to even add things like curse words or shots/jokes at people or games for fear of inciting a war against fans of said person or game. You also have a good sense of comedic timing, which might seem small, but you would be surprised at how many narrators fail to time a joke so that it is actually funny instead of eye-rolling. You seem like an overall fun and genuinely funny person who enjoys making these vids, and I definetely expect to see you make it big in the near future. Keep up the good work!

It wasn't specifically a Backrooms game, but earlier this year, I played and was honestly rather disappointed by a liminal space game called Anemoiapolis. While the Steam page called it "a relaxing horror game" (??), I mainly just found it rather boring. You just wander around some liminal areas to pick up tickets to go to other liminal areas. Not much else to it. Sure, there's the inherent odd feeling of liminality, but there was really no threat to make it a "horror" game. No real story, you're just trying to get out via an elevator in the dead mall hub area, and the only notable gameplay part was a little mini-golf game. I like mini-golf, but it was just a never ending procedurally-generated narrow hallway of obstacles. You don't get any prize or reward for playing it. It's not even necessary to progress. I just ended up circling through the lobby repeatedly to farm tickets. What I'm saying here, is at least these you covered had something going for them as actual games, rather than just literal empty spaces to wander through.

Personally I think someone should make a backrooms game that incorporates level YOU CHEATED and level You Won! as a sort of meta thing, where if you do something to skip through something you were suppose to do you'll end up in YOU CHEATED which would be an extreme difficulty level but if you make it out it drops you back at the beginning of the level you cheated in, and level You Win! would be where you go when you beat the game.

[@firerinart]

LOVE this video! I feel like I've got a bit of a controversial opinion on bad backrooms games, but I think think they are helpful to the overall indie game dev "ecosystem". I'm totally new to making games but I've been doing very basic building in game engines and 3D software by creating backrooms levels. To me, backrooms are an extremely simple but effective entry project for beginners in environmental game design, and can help people focus more on familiarizing themselves with hotkeys, shaders, software functions, and clean building/optimization without putting too much strain on your computer. Even for people who are buying assets, there's still some work to be put into learning how to stitch the whole project together. Maybe a few years down the line we'll have the next big indie horror hit akin to Lethal Company or MFN and the creator will be sharing stories of their first ever game being a "mostly negative" reviewed backrooms game they made while in college. I don't necessarily think these amateur projects all need to be on the steam store for actual money but on the bright side it's also a good opportunity for consumers to be more selective and thoughtful when buying games too and for the devs to get very honest feedback about where their skills might need to improve.

The backrooms is a really sad case with only a handful of people actually staying true to the concept (such as those great VHS style films). The big thing is that it's entirely community driven, but it doesn't have any actual restraints. As such, every 11 year old whose SCP got rejected jumped at the opportunity to slap it into a relatively unmoderated public Wiki. Now when you look at the backrooms, you're peering through a curtain of utter slop and can barely see what made it appealing in the first place.

I have a dumb idea for a Backrooms game, but it's dumb cause it makes no sense if you haven't acquired Archon in Remnant 2.

Does The Backrooms really have a "canon"? When I checked the wiki, it was pretty poorly written and looked like it was made by kids trying to make the next SCP Foundation.

Love the Glamrock oc. I also have become a fan of your videos. Question about your oc. Trying not sound rude but what is she? I think you a Lynx but please feel free to correct me.

Actually found the MV in the game after watching this video. Being honest, I vibe with it a lot: it's really well done for a game like that. Guess it helps I can understand the song's lyrics (portuguese is my native language!)
