Liminalcore PC Game 2024 Overview:
Explore and admire while navigate through eerie, surreal environments inspired by the Backrooms lore.
(v20241102 Update added)
Explore this uncanny world lost in time and get lost in the otherworldly architecture in a world where reality bends and your sanity is tested. A man gasps for air as he surfaces from water—only to find himself trapped in a room of white tiles and endless pools. This is Level 37, the Poolrooms, a place where the familiar dissolves into the unknown. In this surreal journey, you will explore spaces that exist between worlds—hauntingly empty, disturbingly quiet, and yet strangely familiar in Liminalcore .
As you traverse these liminal spaces, fragments of a life long gone begin to surface: objects from a forgotten past, memories of a home now lost, and moments that echo through the corridors of time. But this is no ordinary journey. It is the final journey—the descent of a soul lost to water, drowning in both regret and uncertainty. The further you explore, the deeper you’ll plunge into the uncanny, until finally, you reach the ultimate destination: Hell itself.
Liminalcore will take you through four haunting locations, each one more surreal than the last. These spaces are not just backdrops but represent stages of the protagonist’s life, memory, and descent into madness. This game is heavily inspired by Jared Pike’s Poolrooms, a vision of liminal spaces that blend reality and nightmare with disorienting tranquility. We’ve also drawn influence from the Backrooms mythos, particularly the eerie depictions from creators like Kane Pixels and The Librarian, whose work with liminal spaces and unnerving voids shaped the atmosphere of the game.
Features of Liminalcore:
- Exploration-Focused Gameplay: You will be piecing together fragments of the protagonist’s life and death, all while navigating eerie, transcendent spaces that blur the line between reality and nightmare.
- VHS Filter Toggle: For an added layer of surreal horror, players can toggle the VHS filter on or off, transforming the game’s visuals into a distorted, analog nightmare reminiscent of old found-footage tapes.
- Minimal Entities, Maximum Atmosphere: The focus of the game is not on battling monsters, but on immersing yourself in the eerie, liminal environments. Entities are rare—what you must confront is the unsettling emptiness, the echoes of your past, and the strangeness of these in-between worlds.
