Watch the Official Next Fest Trailer:

What’s in the New Demo

Reworked Chapters 1 & 2 - improved gameplay flow, refined puzzles, and overall polish across the experience
RC Car Exploration - scout unreachable areas, trigger mechanisms, and uncover hidden paths
Liminal Architecture - minimal, looping environments that distort scale and perception
Puzzle-First Exploration - spatial and timing-based challenges revealed through observation rather than combat
Journey Through the Stages of Grief - each chapter reflects a phase of the Kübler-Ross model
Narrative Descent - every discovery draws you deeper into the space between memory and reality

Your Feedback Matters

Your feedback during Next Fest helps shape the final version of the game. We’re especially interested in your thoughts on pacing, atmosphere, puzzle clarity and overall immersion.

Thank you for exploring the liminal spaces!

Invert mouse problem

In the demo, selecting Invert inverts BOTH the Y and X axis. I always invert the Y, but doing so here makes the X axis "backwards." I gave up after getting the RC car; just too frustrating. Please consider adding separate options to invert the X and/or Y axis. (Also, it looks like the dev is planning controller support; that would be great.) Also wanted to say -- hopefully the dev is taking a look at the discussions here, but I don't see many responses. I know it takes some time, but, there are only 13 qu...

Inverse mouse

Inverse mouse reverse horizontal AND vertical axis ... That's not how it's done! Separate axis at least, no one play with BOTH axis reversed!

Enjoyed the demo!

Great job! And I do love the fact it did not rely on cheesey monsters to freak me out. I am sitll trying to put my finger on what makes the backrooms so creepy - maybe it's the 1980s,1990s abandoned mall feeling, - like i am in an empty old JC Penny but whatever it is feels like both nostalgia and eerie. This games looks like real life btw and it's awesome. I am trying to figuure out WHY and HOW that is possible! More games should do this kind of thing lol idk if it's the VHS filter, the birds eye camera,...
