• Reality Foundation has been announced - 30 August 2026

  Hello friends!I am glad to finally introduce you to my new project, which was started a long time ago, but later paused. Active development is underway right now! Therefore, the game page was opened."Reality Foundation" is a continuation of the plot of the first game "The Backrooms: Escape". Here you have to explore the levels of "Reality" as an employee of a research expedition.For me, this project is a logical continuation of the first game, bug fixes and an opportunity to implement big ideas. By the way, initially another ambitious project was under active development, but now it has been put on pause. Your best support for me now would be to add the game to my wish list. And it will be more convenient for you to receive news about the development.
