Secret Backrooms
final announcement for real.
this game did not recieve any new updates due to the game's project being deleted accidentally and the game soon enough will turn free for everyone to play.
if you want a better experience check out the newer games i released!
those recieve updates and become better with each update!
thank you to everyone who gave support to this game and stuck till it's end
what's going on?
first is because there might be visual glitches or the game is just not in a stable release.
updates will drop and i have to say this time i dont think i'd delete the project accidentally or losing it since i have the UE4 Version and can always start again.
besides that i feel this game was left out for way too long. longer than secret backrooms 2 which this game is gonna set up for the sequel. who knows what kind of entities will prevail? or would it be just the existential dread of being in an empty space.
slowly the levels get bigger in size and there might be a little reference to one of my old games.
other than that, be on the lookout for any trailers (idk when but it will happen)
Secret Backrooms 2023 WITH UE5 LUMEN
i honestly should give you guys a little look at the game from UNREAL ENGINE 5
big difference in that area.
obviously i tried with ray tracing and uhh. yeah too much lighting i guess.
overall the game is now continuing it's development and so is secret backrooms 2 although im in a position which one i should release first -_-
you guys tell me since secret backrooms 2 looks good as well but which do you really prefer?
Secret Backrooms 2023 Update break next week
so as you've read the title i'll be taking a break next week mainly because im getting a new PC worth 2000$
i hope you guys understand the reason since it's a new PC and not a LAPTOP (btw for most of you who dont know i made this and my other games on steam using a laptop from 2018 so you know it's quite troubling to make a game while making sure it runs well.)
what that means is i'll be able to make the game in Unreal engine 5 now that is fully released and got a new version.
this means i'll make the game even more realistic, beautiful and atmospheric!
now obviously this doesnt mean i'll keep continuing until i get the PC but more of getting the time to set up the change (well that also means slapping the external drive to the pc and dragging all of the files for UNREAL.
im sorry for the inconvenience but a new gameplay screenshot will drop next week when i put it on ue5.
it sounds random and i cant blame you since i said i'd take a break from the game next week.
i got personal stuff even when i eventually get my pc so that also is the reason i wont be able to do much progress on the game.
stay tuned next week when i get my pc :)
2023 update in early access soon
what's also good about this is that i can get feedback while still in development of the 2023 update, just keep in mind everything has switched to UE4 for the time being and also the VHS look will remain for the rest of the 2023 update. there's no current setting for the VHS Look to be removed if a certain group of people dont like it.
overall i should also work on the monster model which is like umm... 40-50%? somewhere in that range since i need to do T E X T U R E S and yes that includes animation and you know me (im horrible but i'll try my best or just yoink some animations online which saves me time lmao)
anyways stay tuned for more updates on this year's update
Secret backrooms 2023 Update coming soon
As for the current status of the mess I’ve made (which is this game and the fact that the project file is gone) I’ve recreated the game in a new.. VHS style look suitable for any that prefer that kind of thing and luckily i do have footage of the new update (keep in mind in the video it’s called secret backrooms 2023 edition and not update since it was meant to be a remastered version of the game.)
Currently i have made some progress in the game but just to make sure things go well the game will be tested on steam which means going back to early access
Last secret backrooms news for a while
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2394940/Secret_Backrooms_2/
This is to keep the game relevant to the first game only and the other for that only
Sounds odd but hey while you’re at it why not whishlist it until I put out a trailer when it’s at that stage oh and the trailer usually is like done in the middle of the development to show off what’s new and what levels there are
So if you see a new trailer besides the one on the page it means it’s coming real soon
Secret backrooms 2 on its way
Already surpassing this game's overall playtime goddamn.
Anyway I'd like to say that the steam Page for the sequel Will be up soon so keep an eye out for the next upcoming week.
If you have any suggestions or ideas specifically for the sequel I'd like to discuss it with all of you guys!
Currently I'm set on level 3 which is the closest to a crimson forest.
I've made it more apparent for a path but I don't know if it's better to expand the level/ terrain since it's kinda small. Also a cabin much like an older game I've made would make the game
Quite different from the already established backrooms games.
In this sequel its just being unique while keeping the theme of the backrooms levels like level 0 for the yellowy asthetic.
Anyway post your comments and I'll see what you guys think
Secret backrooms is discontinued?
There's a thing going around that people are commenting on my trailer videos for the sequel and I want you guys to be clear and come fourth. This game has officially been announced to be discontinued for many reasons including the fact that the project file is deleted
Well it is the main reason since how am I supposed to update the game when I don't have the files for it? The reason I'm posting this for the reason of the game being discontinued is really clear from the lack of updates.
Sequel to the game
Just an announcement, nothing too extreme.
Oh and I might make it open world type game.
Leveling up system? Maybe but I doubt it.
Main hub? Yep, straight from the original concept of the first game.
Different monsters? Perhaps, worth a shot.
BETTER AI? fuck yes I'm willing to make them advanced.
They'll be able to hear your footsteps especially when running.
Maybe sprint really fast when seen.
Maybe just normal AI that doesn't hear your footsteps.
All of these are just ideas and the most common one
Will be to hear you. Beware of your surroundings~
You can also teleport backrooms style (glitching ofc)
I'll experiment the semi-open world type instead of fully open world since you won't be in a big area but rather explore a base which I said is the main hub.
You get to unlock different sections of the game by doing puzzles or finding keys.
Get yourselves prepared because each level has different parts.
Yes they get difficult and yes I'm doing a different approach from the lore itself while keeping it similar and somewhat identical to the original backrooms story
