８番出口：Strange Shadow
"Exit 8" is a pulse-pounding short walking simulator that paints your escape from a cryptic underground passageway. Trapping the player in an endlessly sprawling subterranean labyrinth, the game's sole objective is clear: escape. Keen observation of your surroundings is paramount as you do not overlook any anomaly on your quest for the elusive Exit 8. Drawing inspiration from Japan's underpasses, liminal spaces, and the concept of backrooms, this game, despite being a quick 15 to 30-minute playthrough, delivers an immersive experience with its life-like graphics and environment, making you feel as if you've stepped into a real-life scene.
The Indie Developer with a Flair for Originality
Behind "Exit 8" stands Mr. Kotakenotokkeke, an indie developer who also ventures into Unreal Engine asset creation under the pseudonym "Notokeke". His artistic touch is evident in works like "StylizedWeather" and "DynamicDesert+SlideSystem", featuring exquisite skies and a sliding desert traversal component. In each of his creations, a blend of innovative technology and a unique perspective is consistently apparent. Currently, Mr. Kotakenotokkeke is also engaged in the development of the adrenaline-fueled adventure game "STRANGE SHADOW", showcasing his diverse creative talents.
Liminal Spaces: The Transitional Landscapes
Liminal spaces were initially an architectural term referring to areas designed simply for people to pass through. However, with the digital age's trends, the term has gained new dimensions. In the realm of the internet, liminal spaces captivate with an eerie surrealness and subtle disquiet within their simplicity. These spaces symbolize transitional moments or states, often evoking nostalgia for the past or a faint sense of sorrow in observers.
This concept came into the spotlight particularly after a post titled "The Backrooms" went viral on 4chan. Since then, images of liminal spaces have been widely shared across platforms like Reddit, Twitter, and TikTok, resonating deeply with many. Representing more than mere transit points, liminal spaces intertwine the past, present, and future, becoming a phenomenon that resonates profoundly with our inner selves.
