Backrooms game feedback and a few questions

Unlike popular backrooms games, this one is mostly canon(ish?). What I mean is , levels are not infested with Brutez’s jeff the killer script attached to some random sketchy meshes and walls made with 144p not seamless toolbox textures.
I’ve only made level 0 to level 2. Each level is mostly random so you don’t memorise what turns to take, for example level 0’s map is %100 randomly generated.

Gameplay

You have free cam in menu just like in studio, you just click the start button.

You can escape level 0 via a glitching wall…
In level 1, you try to open every door you see, they are randomly put so good luck with that.
Level 2 is just steam shooting pipes that makes you go charcoal and has no exit because I discontinued the game.

SOME GAME MECHANICS

Level 0 and 1 has a sanity system(which is not a gui that says sanity x/100). Factors that effect your sanity are:
1-your sanity is decreasing all the time in level 0
2- seeing hallucinations or actual creatures (which is really rare)
3- going into dark in level 1
4- looking at bright level 0 lights
In level 0, you can press H to heal your mental health (of course with a cooldown). In level 1, it heals itself by time.

Level 2 has something similar to sanity system but it’s temperature. Level itself is really hot so you have to stabilize your temperature by pressing H, if it’s 140°C you die. Steam shots coming out of pipes will increase temperature REALLY fast. If it’s sprayed right into your face, just click on it and mr. wrench will fix it in a frame.

Whole game in 65 seconds so you don’t have to be tortured playing it.


I hate how “titles” in video looks

Controversy
Backrooms concept is OVERUSED and mostly used for bad skibi toilet scary nextbot obby mansion poop waaah meme games.

So, should I continue developing this backrooms project, or should I come up with an original horror game idea?
I am like 50:50 right now so please no "do what you want"s.

  • go with backrooms
  • find some original idea

This is genuinely amazing, you should definitely continue development because this looks like a full on horror game, map looks good and visual effects are great.

Wow. This is top tier, the graphics are amazing and exactly resembles the VHS vibe, I must say you should keep going developing this game because this has potential in the future! Keep up the good work!
