Backroom Beyond on Twitch — competition and audience

White Vortex· 2022· PC
PuzzleAdventureIndieHorrorThrillerMystery

Backroom Beyond is a first-person game that mixes puzzles with single-player adventure in a dark, harrowing environment that makes the player question the protagonist's sanity. Based on the internet myth, Backroom Beyond goes further and makes the player wonder if that journey is about something more personal than anything else. The narrative has two main points. Drawings tell part of the game's story on the walls. The drawings have no defined authorship, which gives them an extra degree of strangeness. The second point is the existence of The Guide, a being that instigates the players to think about their actions in real life. The game basically has one objective throughout its 40-level journey: place the red box over the red button and open the door to the next level. It seems simple at first, but it's not. Each environment has its own logic. If the players feel frustrated because something went wrong in their strategy, they can press the “wake up again" button, which will return them to the beginning of the level.

What is Backroom Beyond about?

The narrative has two main points. Drawings tell part of the game's story on the walls. The drawings have no defined authorship, which gives them an extra degree of strangeness.

Each scenario has a part of the story to be told, whether in the subway, in the snow, in the house, or in an actual backroom. Each place has its dose of tension and wonder.

Should I stream Backroom Beyond on Twitch?

0/100 · Closed off· 6 viewers per streamer on paper

Probably not. The only English stream here holds all 6 English viewers — once you take it out there is nothing left to reach.

The only English stream here holds all 6 English viewers. There is nothing left over for a second.

Almost nobody here is available to you — either a couple of streams hold the room, or nobody is watching in English, or the category is empty, or you would be buried.

This reads the room as it is right now — how much of the English-speaking audience is reachable and where you would land — not how many followers you would gain. That depends on you.

Where to buy

All plain links straight to the official stores. Some will become affiliate links later, and they’ll be marked with a ♥ when they are — you’ll always be able to tell, and the unmarked ones will always be there.

How many people stream Backroom Beyond?

1 right now, to 6 viewers between them. Counted live from Twitch and refreshed every 15 minutes.

Is Backroom Beyond too saturated on Twitch?

Not crowded, but not open either. Only 1 person is streaming Backroom Beyond, and the one English stream holds all 6 English viewers — so the room is quiet because that audience is already committed, not because it is waiting for you.
