Don't Exist

Don't Exist is a survival game for one to four players set in an endless mall that is randomly generated with each playthrough. You explore its areas, encounter strange entities with distinct mechanics and dangers, and try to survive. Dying helps you learn how to make progress, while entities found farther into the mall are usually more dangerous. The game is not story-driven, but contains hidden lore inspired by backrooms, weirdcore, dreamcore and nextbots.

Survive the mall

Consume items to avoid starvation, and protect your sanity, which can also be used to acquire items. Some situations require audio cues, so sound is needed to play properly. A run can last from a few minutes to potentially a few hours once you have mastered the game. Reaching the farther areas can be difficult, and the game may not suit you if you cannot survive the first entities that appear near the start.

Play alone or together

You can play solo or in online co-op with up to four players. The game includes in-game achievements to work towards, a few movable or physics-based props, and unique areas farther out in the mall.

Interface and settings

The game uses limited in-game UI: doors open when pushed, useful items are picked up automatically, and your character starts panting when out of stamina. You can choose from four lighting options in the start menu and adjust the graphics, field of view, volume, controller sensitivity and mouse sensitivity in-game. Motion blur is not included.
