Step Into the Nostalgia of Poolscape

Poolscape is a captivating exploration-based walking simulator that transports players back to the golden age of 1990s gaming. Eschewing the trend of hyper-realistic industry titles, Poolscape embraces authentic PSX-era graphics. Through the use of low-poly models, pixelated textures, vertex snapping, and atmospheric distance fog, we recreate the hauntingly beautiful aesthetic of classic consoles. Immerse yourself in a journey through the iconic Poolrooms and Backrooms, where retro-styled visuals meet chilling, liminal space environments.

A Mindful Liminal Experience

Unlike fast-paced shooters or action-heavy horror games, Poolscape is intentionally slower-paced. We invite you to linger in every corner, soaking in the immersive sound design and aquatic ambience. While you explore, you will uncover deep lore hidden within collectible notes, and you may even notice a mysterious Weirdcore-inspired entity watching your progress from the shadows. Whether you are seeking a meditative retreat or a subtle psychological thrill, our game provides a unique, relaxing, yet uncanny experience.

Explore Eight Distinct Poolrooms Levels

Poolscape features eight expansive, thematic environments accessible through an interactive central "hub" filled with waterslides. Each level promises a unique visual and auditory journey:

• Classic Poolrooms: Experience the true essence of liminal spaces with endless tiled corridors and fake, glowing skylights.
• The Aquatic Megastructure: Navigate an impossibly vast, brutalist facility designed to evoke feelings of scale and megalophobia.
• Dreampools: Wander through a vibrant, dreamlike oasis filled with bright pools, matte textures, and surreal low-poly palm trees.
• Dark Poolrooms: Test your nerves in an unnerving environment plunged into thick, claustrophobic darkness.
• Nostalgia Springs: Revisit the late 90s with vaporwave-inspired architecture, neon lighting, and mall-core aesthetics.
• Oceanscape: Discover a world of floating platforms and strange sculptures in an environment that feels almost too calm to be real.
• The Chlorine Complex: Get lost in a sprawling, musty motel-themed network of shallow indoor pools, categorized into three distinct atmospheric sections.
• Promised Future: Step into a Y2K and Frutiger Aero-inspired paradise that feels like stepping inside a digital desktop dreamscape.
