About
Liminal Universe is a solo first-person adventure game that takes you deep into Liminal Space. In this experience, you focus not on the story but on understanding the world around you and the atmosphere it creates. The game starts on an entirely empty snowy map, and then continues with a pool and ocean.
Although the game sometimes tells you what to do, it leaves it unclear what exactly you should do.
There are no creatures chasing you or complicated puzzles to solve in Liminal Universe. The aim is to discover the story of this forgotten place at your own pace. Sometimes it can be difficult to find your way through narrow corridors, dark corners and seemingly endless empty rooms. But these challenges deepen the game's atmosphere and your experience.
The game has no dialogue, user interface or music. Instead, you step into a world filled with realistic environmental sounds. The echo of your footsteps, the hum of the machines continuing to work, and the silence of game draw you into this strange world.
With each step, you will feel more and more the strange and mysterious nature of the liminal world. This is a place to discover, a mystery to understand, but most of all, an atmosphere that draws you in. Liminal Universe aims to offer you not just a game, but also an unforgettable experience.

My easiest negative. I can't even finish the game, much as I love backrooms walking sims. It's the best example of good taste in the worst hands. I was glad to see areas and vibes previously not made in other games, but they are all awful. What made me love these games was the atmosphere. Here, there is none. Objects are just coloured rectangles. Textures repeat or cut abruptly. Endless hallways of the exact same thing as the first few metres, without variation. And it gets worse. By chapter 2 there are some floating objects out of place. Lamps without base. Rocks midair. Low poly is not a stylistic choice, but compromise for not having better optimisation. Not to mention some obvious sequences in chapter 1 copy pasted from Pools.
I wanted to like this game but it honestly wasn't that great. I didn't feel like I was lost like most liminal/backrooms, because the game had me follow a certain path in order to escape. The goal is to escape but I like exploring and the idea of getting lost. The head bobbing also was annoying.

Yet another game that makes me really wish Steam had a "mixed" review button. It is certainly a good game . . . in a vacuum. However, when it exists in the same room as Pools and Dreamcore among other "pool" liminal space games, it really shows in the areas in which it lacks. Some of the assets were "cheap" looking and holy God could this game use a toggle button for when you run (which, upon reflection, the lack of which was certainly a developer choice)! There were moments -- for instance, the entirety of the godawful third chapter -- where the length of the hallways necessitated the almost exclusive use of the run mechanic but with no toggle switch, made it a slog to go through. Trust me, there's no way you're playing this game at the criminally slow pace the devs made the walking speed at. That being said, I really wish there was a photo mode because you could definitely make some cool a** wallpapers with this game.
Game is exactly what it says it is. A nice walk through some liminal spaces. Dev clearly had some neat ideas, and I think did pretty well in translating them into different rooms. Get high and you can burn an hour or two with this and just chill.
Интересное исследование локаций, много всяких закутков и ответвлений. Хорошая игра для расслабления. Хотя и были локации в которых становилось некомфортно. Уровень "Бассейн" довольно разнообразный со своими странными приколами. Уровень "Snowy" крайне нелепый и короткий. С кучей не сходящихся кривеньких текстур, да и сами основные текстуры (домов, например) очень некачественные. Не особо атмосферный. Даже не поняла что это было. Уровень "Облака" абсолютно потрясающий и великолепный со стороны дизайна. Очень стильный. Множество раз покрывалась мурашками. Плюсы: - Приятный визуал - Саунд дизайн Минусы: - Не сохраняется прогресс при выходе из игры. Я не могу находиться в такой игре долго по причине того, что меня легко укачивает от такой тряски камеры (убрать ее нельзя), поэтому просто взять и выйти из игры нельзя, так как прогресс уровня сбрасывается и все, что вы там открыли за время игры исчезает и надо проходить уровень для открытия всех этапов заново :) - Нельзя отключить тряску камеры, такая мелкая тряска при ходьбе или беге выглядит просто отвратительно. Если у вас такие же проблемы с укачиванием, как у меня, то лучше не стоит в это играть - Также нет русского языка (хотя это и не критично), вообще никаких других языков, кроме английского, хотя на странице игры они указаны В целом, я меняю своё мнение на рекомендую, но далеко не всем такое может понравиться
The Dev nailed what The Backrooms is meant to be. The way the environment changes as you progress is excellent. The graphics are stunning. I love it. There are only 2 things that bugged me a bit, 1: I felt too short. The character could do with being a bit taller, 2: the walking speed was a little too slow. I am the first to complain when a game character moves to quickly but this felt a little too slow. It's not a big deal, I still enjoyed the experience regardless. Please, please, please make a VR version. It would be incredible to explore these environments in VR. 10/10 from me. I really enjoyed it.
Great game! 1 achievement is broken [SAT DOWN] and will require you to download an older depot of the games files. The developer seems to have removed the mechanic but left the achievement, which is almost as bad as moving a cemetery and leaving the graves and bodies. For that alone, I must not recommend the game to anyone. I sure liked it though, so its too bad they chose this route.
This isn't THAT BAD but it's not as great as liminalcore or dreamcore for that matter but as an overall liminal space game is alright and music is a bit relaxing something good to maybe help pass time quicker
This is a great backrooms game. Its too darn easy and short though.
我觉得风景环境都很好背景音乐音效也很不错,就是有一些出口太难找了,尤其是在一片漆黑的地方行走什么都看不到只能听脚步贴墙走那种绝望感。给个建议就是指路可以明确一点在雪人那关刚出去的时候根本不知道往哪走,进屋还是一片黑根本不知道这里是不是对的
