What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“As an independent developer, we are passionate about our upcoming video game UnderBackrooms and we want to share it with as many players as possible upon its release. That's why we have decided to publish it in early access on Steam.

We are convinced that early access will allow us to collect valuable feedback and suggestions from our player community, which will help us further improve our game before its final release. We are looking forward to receiving your comments and working with you to create an even more immersive and enjoyable gaming experience.

Thanking you in advance for your support and participation, we hope that you will be as excited as we are about UnderBackrooms and can't wait to see what awaits us in the backrooms!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our product will be in early access for about 3 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The final version of our game will be different from the early access version as we plan to add even more content to the game. We are also open to player suggestions and feedback during the early access phase, and we plan to add incorporate some of their ideas and comments into the final version. We hope these additions and improvements will make the gaming experience even more immersive and entertaining for all players.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state of the Early Access version of our game is that it features 3 floors and multiplayer is operational. We are constantly working on improving and adding new content to the game, and we appreciate all feedback from our community. We hope to continue to grow and expand the game with the help of our players during the Early Access period.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We do not intend to increase the price of our product during or after early access. However, if we get a lot of feedback from players and we have to add a lot of features as a result, the price may go up slightly. We are committed to providing the best possible gaming experience for our players and will take into account any feedback we receive.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We plan to use several methods. Firstly, we have created a dedicated Discord server where players can discuss their gameplay experience, give their opinions, and ask questions. We also encourage players to share their ideas and feedback on our Steam store page and on Reddit. We are open to all suggestions and hope to include as much community feedback as possible in the final version of our game.”

About This Game

UnderBackrooms is an independent horror game that plunges you into the mysterious backrooms, a parallel universe filled with empty rooms and endless corridors.

The game is playable in cooperation, which allows you to work as a team with your friends to overcome the challenges that await you.

Levels

There are currently 3 levels in the game, each with its own mechanics and increasing difficulty as you progress through the floors.


Multiplayer


- Players can choose to play alone or with up to 4 players.
- Players can either host a game or join one.
- At least one player must find the exit in order to progress to the next floor.
- If a player dies, they will respawn after 60 seconds.
- If all players die, the game must be restarted.

Entities

In this game, we have 5 entities which are not always faithful to the Backrooms creepypasta, but which have been designed to enhance the atmosphere of the game.


Procedural generation

Our game has been designed to be as replayable as possible. The themes of the floors remain the same, but the mazes generated will never be the same. This ensures that each time you play, the experience will be unique and unpredictable.

Items


- Lightstick: used to provide light and can also be placed on the ground to create landmarks.
- Scanner: when pointed at an entity, it will emit a noise.
