i'm a solo dev and i built an infinitely evolving backrooms game and released it on the web. 35,000 players and ~9,600 hours played. these are my metrics under 36 hours of launch. each blue dot below is a player on the map i recorded a moment ago. there's... show more

ohh also here’s the game if you want to join the other 1k players:
Almost a metaverse now
this is what zuck wanted to do but was too early haha
Yeah we might see a lot more of these independent ones pop up in the coming days
can’t wait to see what everyone cooks!
Yeah, but there’s also a need for a platform to host and run web based shared worlds easily too
yeah i’ve got a bunch of opinions on the subject of what’s going to happen when there’s a million more games out there. will share an article on it soon!
Cool!
Server costs?
for all my games it's around $25/month
35,000 users. one power cable.
this is wild! what's the actual goal in a backrooms game, just escape?
yeah usually you'd like to exit. but dimension 9 is a twist on the original idea and falls into the category of free exploration especially since this is being infinitely built forever by a sentient AI (opus 5.5). i think people are much more curious what else will be built then wanting to dearly escape from backrooms
I played it like two hours ago for about half an hour and it was quite cool to explore a bit and got scared. However it doesn't give me more reason to play again. I like backrooms, but at the same time I don't because it is way too repetitive.
are people actually teaming up in there or just running past each other? curious how the game changes once it's that crowded
tick rate plz! I'm jk good work
Shhhsh. I love this
My immediate feeling when entering the game was half life 1 I really think browser games is gonna have its moment
Bravo 👏 fun fact, the original backrooms short film was made almost entirely in blender!
This is amazing.. but please adjust (lower/change) that footstep audio 😅
An infinite maze with 35,000 people voluntarily wandering around. IKEA is either impressed or concerned.
Interesting. Not sure what I’m doing but smooth in phone inside x
can u let i guess with restrictions let other ppl insert in objects? or things? ofc we dont wanna go full minecraft but like imagine someone gets allowed to make 1 room per account or sum, and in th grand scheme of things,that 1 room doesnt matter, but there they can have monsters and such that u urself can let the overarching ai decide if it stays to that room or moves around and stuff. I don't really know how the mechanics will go but this is very cool as a concept
Congrats
what is the cost to host? Very cool
Are observations cached?
the blue dots are the best part. suddenly the backrooms feel weirdly alive instead of lonely
@xikhar Good job bro
Que clase de servidor puede sostener todo esto? Uno de 8 nucleos y 16gb de ram?
Incredible that you can pay for all that services without getting a penny in exchange. As a solo dev. I struggle every day.
So good! How much time did it take to make this happen?
how to do store an infinite world?
35k players under 36 hours is insane for a solo dev, that backrooms vibe has a hungry crowd, the trick now is staying findable so new players keep stumbling in, huge
Coloque compatibilidade pra controle por favor
does one big 2000 player world still feel like the backrooms though? half the dread is being alone in there
I was planning on making a Samosbor style bankrooms game that generates and despawns unless you can stabilize the space with a sort of glowstick type device
how long did it take you to build it and what tools have you used ?
一个人也能做出这么好玩的东西，真厉害！
"each blue dot below is a player on the map i recorded a moment ago. there's ~1,200 players playing the game at THIS moment. SIMULTANEOUSLY. let that sink in." Why? This is skeleton crew ad money.
wtf did i just play...
are you building this with rust?
![Max Levchin explains why B-players hire C-players The co-founder of PayPal and Affirm reflects on the famous Steve Jobs insight that A-players hire A-players, and B-players hire C-players: “It’s profoundly true. But there should be an asterisk explaining why this is true. And the reason for this is fear.” A-players love working with other A-players because they know it will make them better. They want other A-players who challenge them and will tell them when their work isn’t good. Most B-players are net positive too, but as Max argues, some are fearful and will say: “If I have too many B-players or A-players around, I will look terrible and it’ll be very obvious that I’m just not that good. So the way to fix this is for me to become a manager and hire a bunch of people who aren’t very good at all so that I’ll look like the tallest mushroom.” Max continues: “That is the real danger of B-players. Having people who are perfectly willing to do good work day-in and day-out is not the worst thing in the world. There’s plenty of things that A-players will turn their nose from because it’s just not that challenging. B-players are very good for that [type of work]. And a lot of B-players will over time grind their way to being A-players, so you’re investing in their future and they know it, and that’s also positive. But B-players who have fear of being found out are the ones you have to watch out for.” Source: Harry Stebbings 20VC Fund (Feb 2025)](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2080334626279862301/amplify_video_thumb/2080269769249308674/img/drhdzxgCOqpT5qSi.jpg)
