Backrooms: Wit's End news & patch notes

Hi everyone, another small patch with some fixes and tweaks:

Lockers now spawn in Level 1's procedural rooms, allowing players to hide better from skinstealers.

Also, there was a journal unlock that was not possible to get if you were playing singleplayer: the isolation event one. Now you can unlock it if the event occurs while you are looking at the dead explorer found on Level 1 (the one next to the Windows exit hint).

Also added some props to Level 188: room number lettering and a new mysterious picture.

Also some performance improvements, the game now supports DirectX12, but if you have issues or your card doesn't support it, it should fall back automatically to DirectX11. Let me know if this causes any issues!

Hopefully this is the last patch for a while. I already started working on Level 3 and it's coming along nicely, I was able to implement a new procedural generation algorithm that allows me to do a lot of interesting stuff while keeping gameplay constraints in check!

Full patch notes:

• Added Locker spawns to Level 1 procedural rooms

• Isolation event handling with Level 1 dead explorer

• Added room number signs to Level 188

• Added Maroco painting to Level 188

• Added DirectX12 support

• Use GPU Instancing for most materials

Small patch bringing some performance improvements to some meshes with too many vertices and a new Render Distance setting.

Full patch notes:

• Optimized meshes for many props and enviroment objects, mainly related to Level 1 and Level 2.

• Added Render Distance graphic setting

• Adjusted a bit new Level 0 geometry from last update

Hey everyone! This update focuses on bringing more variety to Level 0's procedural generation. You'll now find different wall shapes, more points of interest, some references to the original Hobbytown layout, and a few nods to the upcoming Backrooms Movie.

Level 0's sublevels also got updated with these new additions, along with some unique variations of their own.

There are also some bug fixes and general improvements included.

Originally I wanted to push this update further and add more interactable props to Level 0, but I've been catching myself spending too much time polishing existing content when I should be focusing on the next level already. So I decided to wrap this one up and shift my attention there.

That said, the current levels still have a lot of room for improvement and I plan to keep revisiting them, but new content needs to come first for a while. Hope you understand!

Also, I'm planning on giving you the chance to test new content earlier, so stay tuned for news on this!

Full patch notes:

• Added new geometry variations and props to Level 0, Level 0.7 and Level 0.87

• Improved decal placement in Level 0, Level 0.7 and Level 0.87

• Fixed Peripherals journal unlock calculation

• Smoothed out Redrooms damage per tick

• Added base cooldown of 20 seconds for entities to spawn

• Adjusted checkpoint respawn rotation for some level exits

• Tiny improvements to Level 188

Hey everyone! another small patch to adjust some tiny details I want to have deployed soon. stay posted for a regular update this month!

Full patch notes:

• Adjusted a bit Level 0 lighting and post processing (its now a bit brighter!)

• Fixed wrong negative feedback on interact with Level 0 door

• Added feedback to no Pipe item in inventory when interacting with Pipe puzzle in Level 2

• Added more hints to alternate exit Level 2 -> Level 188

• Wip level popup now opens Navigation Map on close (you are going to see the other exits one way or another!)

• Improved skinstealer waypoint logic (for singleplayer in particular), they shouldn't feel on top of you now.

• Added WIP labels on stuff that is really not implemented yet (Crowbar door, Radio thing, both in Level 188)

Hey everyone! I’m back from vacation with a small patch I worked on during that time. It includes some balance changes to entity spawn rates, along with a few minor bug fixes and code refactors. Hopefully nothing broke. if you spot any new issues, please let me know.

I’ve adjusted the respawn rates for all entities. Skinstealers in particular have been increased significantly, and the base respawn time for all entities is now higher overall. At the same time, the per-player time reduction has been increased, meaning entities will spawn faster when more players are present in multiplayer.

Just so you know what the values mean, respawn time is calculated as:

respawnTime = baseValue − (decrementValue × playerCount)

Full patch notes:

• Changed Entities respawn times:

  • Bacteria Spawn Time:

    • Base 40 -> 60, Decrement per Player: 3 -> 5

  • Needlelimbs Spawn Time:

    • Base 40 -> 60, Decrement per Player: 3 -> 4

  • Skinstealer (main) Spawn Time:

    • Base 70 -> 110 , Decrement per Player: 3 -> 5

  • Skinstealer (second) Spawn Time:

    • Base 110 -> 200 , Decrement per Player: 3 -> 6

  • Skinstealer (rare) Spawn Time:

    • Base 90 -> 200 , Decrement per Player: 3 -> 8

• Lowered Peripherals journal unlock time 8 -> 6

• Increased Level 1 Generator Shutdown event time spacing

• Tiny bug fixes and improvements regarding exit lobbies network handling (if you find any bug, let me know!)

• A lot of other tiny bug fixes and improvements

Hi everyone, I’m back with another development roadmap update.

Past months

First, a quick look at what’s been done since release and the last update. The main focus was polishing the game and improving the first-time player experience.

I added more hints and quality-of-life features, improved level navigation with new exits and the navigation map, and added the explorer group objective to give exploration a bit more purpose.

The metrics after these changes improved quite a bit, which is reassuring. It seems these fixes were necessary. There are still a few things left that I want to finish from this phase, which I’ll mention below.

What’s next

One of the next areas I want to improve is the levels themselves: making them feel more liminal, adding more interactive elements, and improving puzzles.

I’d like to start by revisiting Level 0, adding more geometry variation, more small things to interact with, and improving the puzzle a bit. Eventually I’d like to give the same treatment to Levels 1, 2, and 188, but those are in a decent state for now and I don’t want to delay new content too much.

So the plan going forward is this:

• Version 0.5 updates will continue to focus on improvements and QoL (especially Level 0).

• In the background, I’ll start working on Level 3.

• Once Level 3 is ready, it will release as Update 0.6.

Originally the plan for 0.6 was to include 3/4 new levels, but that would mean waiting much longer. Instead, I’ll work on new levels one by one and release them as soon as they’re ready.

Other improvements planned include additional accessibility settings, inventory improvements, and other small features.

Check new levels earlier: Internal Testing

If you’re interested, you’ll also be able to help test new levels before they release publicly. I’m planning to open an internal testing branch where players can try upcoming content early. More info about this soon.

Final notes

I’ll start sharing teasers once I have something interesting to show from Level 3, but please be patient, I’ll also be taking a month-long vacation starting now (I’m literally writing this at the airport). I’ve been working nonstop for about a year, so I’ll be a bit less active during that time.

Thanks again for all the feedback and support on the Early Access phase of the game!

As you know, most of these topics can be tracked on the Development Roadmap Trello, which I’ll keep updated.

Hi everyone! In this update, the Lobby Browser has been added to the game, allowing players to find and join public lobbies more easily.

Hosts can now kick players from the lobby, and lobbies can be set to Invite Only if you prefer to keep them private.

A new text chat has also been added to improve communication for players who are not using voice chat.

I will post a separate development update post soon to outline what’s next for the game!

Full patch notes:

• Enabled Lobby Browser

• Implemented in-game text chat

• Added online player count next to Lobby Browser on main menu.

• Added lobby settings popup for hosts in multiplayer lobbies

  • Lobby privacy can be changed

  • Lobby name can be changed

• Added kick player functionality

• Adjusted positioning of rescue group on Level 2 exit and fixed Level 2 -> Level 188 exit zone check

• Fixed issue on visualizing objects that wont allow you to exit pressing E

• Networking fixes and improvements

Small patch fixing some issues related to network synch and improved game load timeout handling.

Full patch notes:

• Improved game load timeout logic and increased timeout time to 18 seconds

• Improved network synch regarding explorer group spawn and navigational items already placed (there was an issue where some players didnt see the explorer group)

Update Hotfix v0.5.7.6:

• Previous fix for explorer group spawning did not work in all cases. Implemented a new fix that should resolve the issue.

Hi everyone, small patch this time with some changes to stamina and player speed based on feedback:

The player is now slightly faster, especially when sprinting.

Stamina now drains slightly slower (effectively increasing total sprint time), but it also regenerates a bit slower.

Entity movement speeds have been adjusted accordingly.

This patch also includes a new game loading screen, which improves stability for multiplayer services such as voice chat and Steam connectivity.

A few other small adjustments and fixes were also made.

Full patch notes:

• Player walk speed: 3.2 → 3.3

• Player sprint speed: 5.8 → 6.4

• Standard stamina sprint drain rate: 13 → 12

  • For big levels (1, 2): 11.5 → 11

• Standard stamina regen rate: 35 → 30

  • For big levels (1, 2): 45 → 40

• New game loading sequence improving service initialization before game start

• Slightly lowered overall jumpscare volume

• Disabled the SSGI graphic setting (this was experimental; a more stable real-time global illumination solution is planned)

• Increased base whistle volume, but added a spam penalty (whistle volume decreases if used repeatedly in a short period of time)

Hi everyone, I’m back with a regular update. The main addition this time is a small in-game objective that gives players more purpose during exploration.

Earlier versions hinted that a rescue expedition is searching for you: now you can actively try to find them. You’ll discover clues throughout the levels, and the final point of this objective is dynamic, adapting to any path you take.

There’s also a new level start screen that explains more about the setting and the Backrooms for new players.

These additions are part of the recent Development Update focus on improving onboarding and the First-Time User Experience. So far, related metrics are improving, and this should be one of the last major steps before I shift focus back to new content such as additional levels and entities. I’ll share more details in the next development update coming in March.

Full patch notes:

• Added new "Find the Rescue Group" quest and Achievement

• Added new "Complete your Journal" extra quest

• New Objectives system

• New game start screen

• Added Rescue Group cinematic

  • Thanks to Philip Kingsley for the voice acting!

• Added new blocked door hint in Level 188

• Increased a bit Level 0 green light hints

• Improved Level 1 Exit close gate clarity

• Added new hint signs on Level 0 Exit

• Added some props to Level 0.87 Exit

• Added flashlight turn-on animation

Some changes that were not posted, released as patch v0.5.6.2:

• Increased Skinstealer respawn cooldown time

• Lowered Peripheral unlock time

• Fixed issue that prevented Entities from spawning in Level 1

Hi everyone, hope you had a nice start of the year!

In this small update, I've added an in game navigation map, that you can check any time during the game by pressing the "M" key.

The map tracks levels visited in the current run, discovered exits, and levels found in previous playthroughs.

This update also includes a few other small fixes and improvements, listed below.

For the next update, I’m aiming to introduce changes to the game’s start, including a short cinematic that explains the setting, and finally add the soft-ending/Early Access objective mentioned in last month’s dev update (Check it here!)

Full patch notes:

• Added In-game Navigation Map

• Improved Journal and Map usage hints when players aren’t checking them frequently

• Fixed subtitle feedback on the Level 0 door key not correctly counting the number of keys

• Journal now opens on the last discovered entry

• Small bugfixes

Hi everyone, another small patch significantly improving player-to-player collision in multiplayer. I’ve also added some accessibility settings and additional hints on Level 0.

For the next patch, I’m working on an in-game navigation map, along with further improvements to onboarding and accessibility.

Wishing you all happy holidays!

Full patch notes:

• Improved player collisions on multiplayer

• Added camera sway and lean setting

• Green glow hints for Level 0 Keys

  • Also new clipboard hint about green glow can be found in Level 0

• New lore hint on Level 0 exit

• Disclaimer for fake player joined event

Hey everyone, in this update I’m addressing one of the issues discussed in the Development Roadmap post regarding level navigation.

With two new level exits, I’ve removed a common dead end in Level 2’s navigation. There’s now a new exit from Level 2 → Level 188, and another from Level 188 → Level 1. This should make it easier to move through the main levels and prevent players from accidentally missing core content.

I’ve also improved feedback when interacting with next-level doors.

I wasn’t able to include the accessibility features mentioned in the last patch. I’ll try to include them in the next update, right now I’m working through a long list of fixes, prioritizing the most impactful changes first.

Full patch notes:

• Added new level exits:

  • Level 2 -> Level 188

  • Level 188 -> Level 1

• Added journal completion progress bars

• Changed a bit the dev statement on Level 3 entrance

• Lowered slightly entity chase extrapolation time (time the entity still follows you after it lost line of sight on a chase)

• Improved next level doors hover text feedback and even warning on backtracking, also hold to interact for next level doors.

• Improved feedback on loading multiple keys at once on locked doors

• Fixed issue where clients where not counting for objective update

• Improved player collision physics on multiplayer

Hey everyone, here’s another small patch with a few fixes and improvements.

This update includes the first iteration of dynamic hints to improve the First Time User Experience, mainly focused on Level 0 and its sublevels. Exit signs will now appear near exit doors and spawn progressively depending on how long players take to finish the level. I’m planning to apply the same system to puzzle pieces in the next patch.

I’ve also tweaked a few systems based on feedback. The biggest change is that sanity now slowly drains all the way to 0 (previously there were soft caps limiting passive drain). Later on, I’ll add an event or consequence for staying at 0 sanity for too long, but for now you still need to be caught by an entity to die.

In the next patch, I’ll continue improving the FTUE and add some requested accessibility features as well.

Full patch notes:

• Added dynamic hints to Level 0s (0, 0.7, 0.87) exits that spawn progressively

• Skinstealers passive mode now counts down correctly when players are hiding in lockers

• Fixed issue with "I'm stuck" feature respawn positions sometimes clipping on top of another player

• Fixed issue with unreachable player backpacks when getting killed while entering a locker

• Added constant sanity bleed

• Fixed Level 188 Peripherals unlock calculation

• Changed Level 0.87 note visual

• Added hint next to Level 1 Gate

• Fixed bug with placed navigation items when revisiting a level, changed logic to always show hint and feedback on the needed item.

• Added next planned exits to journal as in-development

• Other small tweaks and improvements

Hi everyone! This is the first development roadmap update, where I’ll go over what’s next on the list and what you can expect in the coming months.

I plan to post updates like this regularly so you can stay informed about what’s being worked on. There’s always a lot to tackle, so I’ll focus on explaining why certain areas are being prioritized, whether due to importance, player impact, or quick wins that improve the experience right away.

Thank you to everyone who joined the Early Access so far! I’ve already received a ton of valuable feedback, and some design issues have come to light that I want to address before moving forward with new content and levels.

Current Issues

After watching many playthroughs, I noticed a consistent problem: players often don’t understand the non-linear structure of the levels. A lot of people leave the game thinking they’ve seen everything, even when several levels were still undiscovered, usually because they unknowingly took an alternate path and skipped a core level.

I thought the Journal would be enough to show players when they were missing content and where to look for extra exits, but most players were overlooking it.

I got the idea of making the game this way after seeing how the Backrooms wikis are laid out, and how the setting is explained with the prevalent feature of levels having many entrances and exits, and how other games dont use this fact, powered also by procedurally generated levels to leverage replayability of levels.

Seems like my assumption was wrong about how much this is a known fact, and seems like only hardcode backrooms fans appreciated this mechanic, but most people completely missed it and the result is a negative experience.

I'm still debating if this is still an interesting idea or if the normal linear level progression is what players expect and want, so I would love to hear more feedback on this!

I have ideas to improve this with better onboarding, more in game hints and a new objective to look for so you have a reason to try to explore at least most levels, or at least not end up closing the game thinking that was everything.

Also general game mechanics onboarding and accessibility can be improved a lot.

These issues are on me, I didn’t gather enough early feedback from a broader audience. Most of the early players were already familiar with Backrooms lore, so I wasn’t able to catch this problem early.

I have plans to address this, and it’s my top priority moving forward. I’m still listening closely to feedback, so I’d love to hear your thoughts on this issue.

Planned Improvements

Here’s the list of changes and improvements you can expect in the coming months. I won’t begin working on new levels until these issues are addressed and the overall experience is more polished. I also want to add a few features that didn’t make it into the initial release, so once I move on to the next level, the core game is in a solid state to build on.

Top priority:

• Improved Onboarding on Level Navigation

  • More in game hints

  • In game navigation map

  • New game start cinematic to explain the setting

  • New soft ending objective

  • Improved level navigation to avoid accidental dead ends

• Improved general First Time User Experience

• Improve Level 0 Puzzle

  • Also some Level 0 Enviroment enhancements are planned

• Accesibility features (Disable motion blur, camera shake, adjustable fov, and other settings)

Also planned:

• Inventory rework

  • Drop items feature

• Lobby Browser

Later on: New Levels plan

Hopefully I can work through the points above quickly so I can move on to new levels, something the game is currently a bit short on.

The original plan for the 0.6 Update was to include three new levels: Level 3, Level 4, and Level 1.01. But instead of delaying the update until all of them are finished, I’ll work on them one at a time and release each level as soon as it’s ready, starting with Level 3. You will know more about this once I start its development.

Thanks for reading and for joining the Early Access phase of the game. Let me know what you think about these plans, and I hope you stick around for the upcoming updates!

As you know, most of these topics can be tracked on the Development Roadmap Trello, I will keep it updated.

Hey everyone, another small patch I wanted to push before the weekend ends. This one focuses on some environment updates, tweaks to the ending popup based on feedback, and a few balance changes I’d like to test regarding sanity loss when witnessing a player kill and sanity recovery rates from items.

The ending popup now shows how many levels you haven’t explored yet, in case players reach the ending without seeing all levels due to alternate paths and similar factors.

I’ll post a longer update next week with a rough roadmap of upcoming features and improvements, I want to finish polishing the remaining content and add some accessibility settings that I’ve already received feedback on.

Thanks for all the feedback you’re sending my way. I’m noting everything down, and I’ll get to it all eventually.

Full patch notes:

• Sanity changes:

  • Almond water Sanity recovery:

    8+(20%missingSanity) -> 6+(20%missingSanity) (just decreased a bit base value)

  • Medkit Sanity recovery: 10 -> 8

  • Sanity loss on kill seen close: 10 -> 15

  • Sanity loss on kill seen far: 5 -> 8

• Added more props and lockers to Level 1 hallways

• Localized hint to Level 188 in Level 1

• Improved ending statement

• Tweaked a bit Level 2 generation, now higher chance of "dark path left" tile

Hey everyone, this is the first patch since the early access release!

I'm keeping an eye on feedback and addressing issues as they come in.

So far there are no critical bugs, but I’ve already made several tweaks based on player reports. If you run into anything or have feedback, feel free to let me know. The main update in this patch is for the alternate exit from Level 1 → Level 188. I noticed players were having trouble finding it and were missing the level entirely. To help with that, I added a fallen explorer with a hint, and improved visibility by adding exit signs once the exit spawns. I’ve also added similar visibility improvements to the exits in Level 0.

Skinstealers on Level 1 have also been adjusted, their respawn time is now longer and their passive time is shorter. Analytics showed they were a bit too overwhelming.

Full patch notes:

• Added Hint on Level 1 to help find exit to Level 188

• Added Exit signs to Level 0, Level 0.7, Level 0.87 main exits, and Level 1 -> Level 188 exit.

• Added timeout for deceiving door for Level 0 and its sublevels.

• Reduced a bit Level 0.7 base size 28 -> 26

• Tweaked a bit Level 1 enviroment, fixed some colliders and improved optimization

• Skinstealers: lowered passive time, lowered passive time on respawn, increased respawn cooldown

• Made Level 1 electric fuze puzzle bigger and closer to the camera

• Decreased item spawn rate a bit

After years of on-and-off development while juggling my full-time job, Backrooms: Wit's End is now available on Steam Early Access.

I hope you enjoy the current state of the game. It’s fully playable, includes most core features, and offers a solid starting set of levels. I’m continuing development immediately to add some smaller features and details I couldn’t finish in time, and polishing some rough spots that were left out, before moving on to the next set of levels. (I will write a more in-depth development roadmap in the next week)

The last few months were intense, and I had to leave some content out of the release simply due to lack of time, but I didn’t want to delay the launch any further.

I have big plans for this project. My goal is to create a more dynamic Backrooms experience: with a focus on procedural levels and multiple exits per level so players don’t feel like they’re always following the same linear path as everyone else.

To make that vision work, I need more content, and that’s what I’ll be focusing on next.

I want to add many more levels, entities, and features. It’ll just take time. In the meantime, you can be part of this journey by sharing feedback and helping me catch any bugs that slipped through. (you can check the development roadmap here)

I’m happy with the current state of the game and how its shaping up for the future. The Demo brought in a lot of valuable feedback, and I’ve already implemented several changes based on the issues players found. I also loved watching the playthroughs across social media and reading all the comments.

If you stream or upload a gameplay video, I’ll definitely watch it, I watch every single one.

I want to thank my friends who helped test the game and gave me valuable early feedback since the very first multiplayer builds. I couldn’t have reached this point without their support.

Hope you enjoy the game!

Demo Patch v0.4.4.1

Thanks to everyone that played the demo so far! I'm really happy with the results and got a lot of good feedback so far. I want to bring up something while the demo is still available and keep an eye on how it evolves: level length consistency.

I’ve seen different playthroughs; some where players took quite a while to find all the keys and the exit, and others where they completed both main levels in under 10 minutes.

This amount of variation between playthrough lengths was not nice so I improved a bit the algorithm placing keys and the door in Level 0 (and its sublevels) to take spacing better into account.

There are more things I want to do, also I would like to improve Level 0 puzzle further (instead of just finding 3 keys) to something more engaging, but for now this improvement should help.

There were many changes to difficulty and how it changes gameplay to list them, but there is a new difficulty selector when you start a new game so you can read all the details there.

Added:

• Improved consistency of Level 0 (and sublevels) keys and exit spacing.

• Difficulty rework

• Added Difficulty selector to starting new game flows

Fixes and tweaks:

• Revive hints, lowered revive time, improved player kill seen post processing effect

• Phone ring now attracts entitiies

• Added subtle sound cue to hidden Level 0 exit.

• Various small bug fixes and stability improvements

Remember that the demo will be available until November 25th, a day before the game releases in Early Access.
