Hi everyone!
I’m here to thank everyone who has supported this game. Today, we hit 10,000 wishlists! 🎉
I’m a solo developer working on this game, and as a software engineer, I learn a little more about game development every day, especially thanks to all the feedback and support from this community.
I first came up with the idea for this game about three years ago as a personal side project. I stopped development several times, but when I heard that a Backrooms movie was coming, I decided to start working on it much more seriously.
The original plan was to release the game alongside the movie, but a lot of life events happened along the way at same time. I changed jobs, moved to a new apartment, my son was born, my car broke down, and one of my cats was diagnosed with cancer (R.I.P Simba). :(
We’re creating something a little different here: a game that truly tries to capture the feeling and lore of the Backrooms. A procedural world that can extend into infinity, with endless rooms and levels that can continue to grow and evolve with the help of the community.
My goal is simple: I want to create something people genuinely enjoy, have fun with.
The game launches on August 14, 2026.
Thank you again for all your support. ❤️
10,000 wishlists means a lot to me, especially as a solo developer. I couldn’t have gotten this far without you.
