Voices of the Void: The Labyrinth // Backrooms

Ah, and here we are. I've come to a point where I'm covering Backrooms content. How far I have fallen...
... jokes aside, this is quite a neat little exploration of an incredibly obscure area of Voices. This place COULD be expanded upon in future updates, but it's hard to say. It could even get removed instead, if it's too much of a chore to keep in the game code-wise. I'm glad to have experienced it either way.
Covering this really made me wonder what other little things are obfuscated in this game that loves to reference and hide so many things. This current build has been out for three months and people are STILL finding new secrets.
I sound like a broken record at this point, but I'm stoked for the new update and am holding off on the more serious or spooky uploads until we get our hands on the 0.6 build. From what I've heard, there are new events, threats, and most interesting to me, a focus on story and narrative, which seem to have lots of dark plot points to them. I'm a sucker for this kind of stuff, and will be delighted to have some interesting topics to piece together in video form.
Until then...
... if you'd like to clip your way into the backrooms (or actually play the game, which is a much better use of your time!)...
Here's a download link. Voices of the Void is FREE: mrdrnose.itch.io/votv
... and if you like it enough, you can purchase it (name-your-own-price) or join MrDrNose's Patreon. (I'd recommend either. This game is cool.)

I find it kinda funny that the Wendigo is of course haunting the endless abyss...while also haunting a toilet. Like, the abyss is understandable, but what did the toilet do to deserve getting haunted.

Where do you think the plumbing goes? A septic tank? Don't be silly the company couldn't afford to get one of those installed

@0_h1t3 11 ай бұрын

contracting an otherworldy entity for an easy piping system connected to an infinite underworld, that dispatches any residue that enters a toilet to that location. i`d say it`s pretty neat.

I like all of these ideas here.Especially combining them. The people who built the base forgot the septic tank and decided to just use otherworldly methods to take care of it, and hired a known killer cryptid to guard the ways and manage the pipes.

My first time encountering this was wild. I thought I knew a lot about the game at that point, but I wasn't ready for this. Here's how it happened. I didn't plan ahead and ended up getting really hungry (I was still new to actually playing the game, but I had been watching a lot of content already at that point). Too hungry to sleep, I push through with my duties while falling over every 10 seconds due to hunger. While waiting for food to arrive and tripping over myself, I accidentally hit the ragdoll button next to the servers (kept confusing it for the zoom in button, thank you Optifine), clipped through one of them, and just like that, I was brought to this nightmare. I froze for about a minute in actual fear. Still tripping from hunger, I stumbled aimlessly through this, knowing that it was definitely a backrooms reference. I didn't know what to expect or how to get out. I encountered the wendigo, which, if it wasn't for this channel, I wouldn't have known he was friendly (if not still a bit terrifying, especially in this darkness). Finally, after spending at least 10 minutes walking, I exited the game and looked it up. At the time, there were no videos on it, and only one mention of it on reddit. Now, there's this video, which will help the next generation of Voices of the Void players. By the way, I've been loving your videos. This game is amazing and definitely deserves more attention. Your videos are very informative and also very fun, and I look forward to every time you upload.

(VotV spoilers, be warned) I find it really funny how all of the actually really scary entities in the game, like the antibreather, the wendigo, Wolfpack, etc, are all basically harmless lol. Like they never go out of their way to harm the player or anything like that. But then the cute alien cats in space are the ones that actually go down and try to actively harm the player lol

Aspect ratio or not, that was a great capture of the toilet demon. For the grass cr0nch, I'm wondering if this backroom labyrinth is below the terrain, maybe nearby enough that an entity detects you and is trying to find you?

@soft_gremlin1845 11 ай бұрын

You know, that is entirely plausible that some entity is attempting to get to the player. It's hard to say-- it's quite a bit of a spook either way!

@janglejingle5937 10 ай бұрын

my hypothesis is that the game plays a distant/nearby grass crunching sound as a scripted spook, it isn't caused by any entity but is rather a global event that can happen anywhere! given the out of date node graph message it appeared to actually load a brand new level, so i don't think there's any grass nearby, and that's why i came to this conclusion.

I remember the first time I got here. It was the middle of the night, and I spotted the anti breather scampering about, so I hightail out on my ATV (I didn’t know the anti breather was harmless). Eventually I end up driving straight into a small ravine and land upside down. Everything went dark and I woke up in the labyrinth. One of the most memorable moments I’ve had in any game recently

I first got into Backrooms while driving along the river on my ATV hoping to find something interesting. Eventually, I ended up at the edge of map and found a suspicious concrete tube below the water. When I got underwater it appeared that the tube was sealed off with metal bars. I thought I could somehow open it with my hammer and tried to break it so I could get in (because I was certain that this tube contained some secrets for some reason).) But after 2 minutes of trying I turned 180 degrees to the back and swimmed away, and then immediately before I even could leave the tube I got teleported in some dark place. I was frightened at first, but then I realized that maybe I hit a random trigger to enter that tube and I finally got behind those bars. After minutes of wandering around those empty rooms I got stuck in an impossible to leave labyrinth. It was so funny to realize that I just bugged out in the water and this tube was just a decoration 😂

I only ever got in the labyrinth once after falling out of the burger dream. Have never been able to get into it again ever since, and I have *tried* significantly. Glad to know there's a consistent way to get into it... in 0.5.2. Looks like the teleport bind is no longer in 0.6. Edit: It turns out I was wrong! The reason why numpad . was never working for me was because I turned on mouse keys many months ago and never turned them off! So we're fine! As long as nobody... teleports any bread!

Perhaps you could cover some of the more shocking signals? Sort of like "The End Is Near" signals, just without the looming threat. Some examples would be the red planet signal that talked about some queen or the "Come here..." signal. I think it'd be neat.

Pre-Alpha 0.6.3b. It happened to me just now. The way I did that is by entering a monitor view and somehow leaving it with the zoom, the player camera after this was a little bit forward than the player location. And then I just walked to a random wall to witness a wall texture on whole screen. And with few these attempts I got "backroomed". BRO! I literally just started playing the game!

(I think what might have happened is that one of the sleep falls triggered while i was wedged beetwen the vending machine and the ceilling and it clipped me out of bounds)

Do you know how to get out of the labyrinth without making the game crash? And if the game crashed and we restart the game, will we be teleported back to our base(or our last location before getting no clipped) or are we gonna get trapped in the labyrinth forever? I have yet to encounter this so it would be nice to know a thing or two so i am better prepared to deal with it

@soft_gremlin1845 11 ай бұрын

The game will save immediately before entering the labyrinth, so you will be safe from being stuck in there!! As for the crashing part, that is basically guaranteed from what I experienced. Each of my, like, dozen runs ended in that. I think it's sort of an endless punishment for trying to clip to where you shouldn't be, or something of the sort, haha!!

@swaggaming2564 11 ай бұрын

the best advice i have is to spend the first day grinding out signals as fast as possible, then to always stay on top of the satellites to keep download speeds up. That way you always have a buffer of signals ready to send off so that you can pack up the daily task’s signals as soon as you get it, then go and get the hashcodes to send off the daily task before mid day. Also, you can use the signal copying mechanic to turn one download into all four levels of signal by processing the copies.
