Our First Public Playtest has ended...

Benny has returned to the Backrooms alone… for now.

Huge thanks to everyone who jumped in, played, got lost, escaped, screamed, broke things, reported bugs, shared feedback, or watched their friends get hunted down by Benny while making the wise tactical decision to run in the opposite direction.

This playtest was a big milestone for us. Over the past several months, we’ve been rebuilding Benny’s Backrooms into a bigger, weirder, scarier, funnier, and more chaotic co-op adventure through the Backrooms. Getting the game into players’ hands and seeing your feedback has been incredibly valuable for the team.

We were blown away by how many of you enjoyed this first public test, and we’ve barely scratched the surface of what’s coming! More levels, more monsters, more lore, more polish, and a lot more strange Backrooms nonsense are on the way.

What happens next?

Now that the public playtest has ended, we’ll be reviewing feedback, digging through bug reports, checking performance issues, and continuing to improve the game.

Yes, even the potato PCs. You are seen.
