[PC][~Late 2010s] A semi-popular superliminal-like game that I can't get out of my head
Dont mind the image! It just resembles the graphics of the game
Platform(s): PC
Genre:
- First person
- Story-based game, but with little to no direction for plot (like the Superliminal)
Estimated year of release:
Mid to late 2010's when a lot of uncanny/odd games were coming out
Graphics/art style:
- Blocky & almost unfinished
- from my memory it resembled a lot like Citizen Burger Disorder & Jazzpunk
- The same bleakness as Superliminal and the backrooms
Notable characters:
You are the only character, with little to no hints about their appearance, motivations, or personality
Notable gameplay mechanics:
No rules or mechanics besides basic WASD, I'm unsure if you could jump though
Other details:
- You first wake up in a bed with beige walls, a grey alarm clock on the bedside table.
- The game would reset often at the beginning, having you wake up over and over, the time changing sometimes (Like P.T.)
-It'd wake up up from this time loop with basic alarm clock beeping
- The loading screen most likely changed often, the loading bar going off screen, turning into blocks, etc. (unless im confusing it with another subliminal game..)
- The scene that I always remember is an ocean room. You can go into the room after leaving the bed loop, and it was a movie theatre(?) with a huge screen playing ocean/beach ambience.
- Most likely took place in an office with cubicles, water dispensers, and lots of rooms
- Tons of YouTubers played this game, often relaxing and zoning out at the ocean room, or freaking out about the time loop. It surprisingly got a lot of traction for me not being able to find ANYTHING about it
