Evaluation

LIMSCAPE launched on June 26, 2025 with five official stages and a sandbox mode for building custom spaces. Updates have continued steadily since then. LIMSCAPERS, a level-sharing site, entered beta on August 12, 2025. A major update adding the World Generator Actor, Auto Generate templates, and the Custom Footstep Actor arrived on June 1, 2026. A Multiplayer Beta arrived on August 8, 2026. The most recent update, version 1.62.4, was published on September 15, 2026. It introduced a Beta of Runtime MCP, which the developer says will continue to expand and improve, and the developer has committed to ongoing stability and usability work on multiplayer. Multiplayer is still in Beta and currently works only in player-made levels, not the official stages. A controller input issue was also still under investigation as of September 1, 2026. Because the developer keeps publishing regular updates and describes ongoing work, the game is still receiving new content.

About this game

Step into spaces that feel familiar—and somehow wrong.

LIMSCAPE is a first-person exploration game about entering quiet liminal spaces and uncovering the meanings hidden within them.

You can simply walk. You can climb, swim, and press farther into the unknown.

Beyond that, you can shape the world with your own hands.

Explore. Create. Leave something behind. LIMSCAPE is a world for meeting space at your own pace.

Begin with five official stages.

Hotels, flood-control facilities, metro stations, pools, offices, and cities—

liminal spaces that feel nostalgic yet uneasy invite you on a quiet journey.

You are not only searching for an exit. Discover the stories within these spaces and the meaning embedded in the world of LIMSCAPE.

The condition for clearing a stage is extremely simple.

Move forward and reach the goal.

That is where everything begins.

Exploration does not end with walking.

Swim, jump, crouch, climb, pick up, and throw—

use your body through simple controls, moving through spaces horizontally and vertically.

At first, walking is enough. As your journey continues, you will find places that can only be reached by climbing, swimming, and leaping across.

In the end, you may realize something.

Why did you keep entering LIMSCAPE and seeking the goal?

What is LIMSCAPE, and what purpose does it hold?

【CREATE AND SHARE】

Another journey begins with your own hands.

"Don't be a pawn, be the hand."

The world does not end when you reach the goal.

Beyond the official stages, another possibility awaits.

—You can create a world with your own hands.

Sandbox Mode lets anyone assemble spaces intuitively and bring them to life.

Place and adjust objects with simple tools

Control light, shadow, and physics as you wish

Edit in real time and create a place of your own

Worlds you create can be saved, exported, and imported.

On LIMSCAPERS, you can publish and share the worlds you create.

Published worlds become shared spaces that others can visit and explore.

Multiplay Beta has been available through LIMSCAPERS since LIMSCAPE 1.62.0.

Explore a public world in the same space as other players, or share a private room with people you invite.

From explorer to creator.

LIMSCAPE quietly supports that first step.

【PLEASE NOTE】

What to know before you play

We recommend playing LIMSCAPE on a desktop PC with a dedicated GPU.

Laptops and lower-performance graphics environments may not deliver the intended experience.

Sandbox Mode has depth to master.

However, it is designed for beginners to enjoy step by step,

starting with small worlds and gradually growing a space of their own.

LIMSCAPE is an exploration game,

but it also holds potential as a tool for film work and art projects.

【VISION】

A world does not end with one person.

LIMSCAPE continues beyond exploration and creation.

LIMSCAPE is more than an exploration game.

As a "tool for creating worlds,"

we aim for it to become a place for art, filmmaking, and people sharing the same space.

We also plan to add features that further expand the world of LIMSCAPE, including VR support.

This journey has only just begun.

The worlds you create will expand LIMSCAPE's future.

【SYSTEM COMPATIBILITY NOTES】

LIMSCAPE officially supports Windows PCs with a DirectX 12-compatible GPU. macOS—including CrossOver and Parallels—and Steam Deck are not officially supported or guaranteed to work at this time. Please review the system requirements before purchasing.
