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.
Starting with LIMSCAPE 1.62.0, we will also release Multiplay Beta through LIMSCAPERS.
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.

LIMSCAPE Version 1.62.4 Official Update
LIMSCAPE Version 1.62.4 1.62.3 → 1.62.4 LIMSCAPE version 1.62.4 is now available. This update improves startup stability on AMD systems, multiplayer collaboration, user audio, editing controls, and UI behavior. It also introduces the Beta version of Runtime MCP, which lets AI and compatible tools observe and operate LIMSCAPE to assist with level creation. Startup and stability Added a safeguard for a crash that could occur on some AMD GPU systems after a LIMSCAPE update. LIMSCAPE Launcher now detects AMD hardware and automatically repairs the rendering cache only on the first launch after the game version changes. The first startup or level load may take longer while the cache is rebuilt. This repair does not run on every launch. Fixed cases where some Overlap Actors did not respond at level startup or after returning from EditMode. Administrator privileges and the launcher The launcher previously requested administrator privileges to register limscape:// links and the .limscape file association in Windows. Version 1.62.4 moves these registrations to the current Windows user, preserving both features without requiring administrator privileges. Administrator privileges were never used for gameplay, unrelated files, or other system settings. Machine-wide entries created by an older version may remain. LIMSCAPE does not silently remove them because removal would require elevation again and could affect other users on the same PC. The new per-user entries take priority. Creation, controls, and UI Added Keyboard Highlight and Click Highlight, including immediate visual updates when their settings are changed. Improved autofocus when looking into the sky or distance, Grouper and Cloner Hide/Show behavior including child objects, multi-selection deselection, and the held position of Physics objects. Added a configurable maximum opening angle for Door Actors. Added Pause Menu control with Start, Select, and Escape, and improved input-setting persistence. LIMSCAPERS now hide...Read full article on Community Announcements (Smoothea)Patch NotesOfficial
