Games Like Backrooms VHS

WELCOME TO THE BACKROOMS VHS

This game is based on the famous creepypasta with many real references implemented such as iconic entities and important elements. You will have to explore each room and try to advance forward and get to new areas. The Backrooms VHS is a linear survival horror game with horror elements where the players experiences the game through the found footage of an old vhs camera. You find yourself trapped in a seemingly infinite maze of office spaces and a total of 14 level of the backrooms. Your noclip into the backrooms and your single goal is to escape by following the narrative and linear world building and survive several encounters of dangerous creatures called entities. While you traverse the backrooms, eventually it will lead you towards the exit, or not.

CO-OP

The Backrooms VHS now supports a co-op online horror up to 4 players, where you and your friends will fight to escape from the different levels of the backrooms, solving different puzzles with different mechanics in each one. You can host a server or join one with a room code(e.g. 1F F3 36 A3). Through the server browser you can also join public lobbies.

FEAUTURES

The walk and run animation are keyframed from reallife footage and layered to provide the most realistic effect and deepen the immersion of the player into the game. Several layers of filters were also added to achieve the best VHS look and tape noise possible. You can walk and sprint with limited stamina and a recovery time. At certain areas your playable character(PC) turns on a flashlight to lighten up the dark areas of the game. The PC can crawl into narrow spaces like vents and holes and interact with certian elements in the scene by giving a comment or by using the lift for example. When you get chased or get scared the PC makes a scared noise or starts to breath heavily, which he also does when the players sprints for too long and the PC has no stamina. You can lean over edges and get a better look at the area without getting in the vision of entities. The entities can chase you through the given area and you have to run away. The player has the ability to take screenshots with the middle mousebutton, which gets stored in the documentation folder.

LEVELS

ENTITIES

THE BACKROOMS CREEPYPASTA

If you’re not careful and noclip out of reality in the wrong areas, you’ll end up in the Backrooms, where it’s nothing but the stink of old moist carpet, the madness of mono-yellow, the endless background noise of fluorescent lights at maximum hum-buzz, and approximately six hundred million square miles of randomly segmented empty rooms to be trapped in. God save you if you hear something wandering around nearby, because it sure as hell has heard you.
