Library of Babel

This is one of the better apps on this App Store of ours. I love how it supports VR, and has the features the famous website you (I’m guessing) based it on, as well as the original book, of course. The graphics are changeable, it’s very immersive, the ambience is nice, you can play it offline (amazing) but…. It needs a touch more. As you may know, the website has a feature where you can generate random pixels, and there is a chance you may find a picture of the beginning of the universe, or something like that. I would like this in the app. Also, here’s a good idea that hasn’t been taken yet: a random sound generator. If you can do text and visual, surely you can do a low bitrate sound generator? If you can, thank you. Also, I would like to be able to disable the VR mode. For example, look around with swiping, so you can use it in a confined area, or on a PC, or on a car ride. But here’s my final question: I’m a music creator, and I’m looking for a way to make my music more popular. I make every genre except any singing, and the music is, to be frank, quite repetitive. So reply with an email or something, so I can maybe get your number and send you free songs. Music is about 40% of the game experience, and it would be nice if you had 10+ tracks in-game. Thank you for your time, Keiwan.

I only touched this app like once or twice and so far I’ve had interesting experiences that I am not sure if they’re were meant to be part of the app. I.e. I saw the librarians that are pointed out in the description of the app, they do share bits of information but at some point they say nothing anymore even if I restart the app.. I also decided to throw myself into the pit multiple times to see if anything happens and upon respawning into the map, I spawn to a Smokey part of the library where a couple floors down, the room was on fire. And during my adventures, the further down into the library I went, the less the books started working. And the first and second floor at some point stopped containing books, bookshelves, and was pure wall, and now thinking about it, there were only 5 floors with endless corridors, and if I tried climbing to the next floor, I would look down to the void and noticed that I never changed floors and I was stuck in the same floor. It felt like it was meant to be some sort of horror in it which kept it suspenseful, but nothing ever happens until you notice a small change and then you realize you’re not experience the app the same way you did when you first entered, yet the rooms are the same. You’re weird. You’re a weird developer. I’m looking forward to your next project.

I like this app, it’s very well made, and unlike other reviews say I don’t think the controls are that bad (although I have a lot of experience with mobile controls so that may be why I can use them easily). My complaint is that sometimes in some rooms there is a figure, sometimes seemingly looking at the shelves, and others, at you. I know it is purposeful, and is even featured in the pictures for the app, but there’s something that is really creepy about it. To randomly go into one and see something in an app not meant to be for entertainment, that should be all the same, and there is an eerie figure staring at you just freaks you out. There was once where when I first went into the app it was staring at me at the first hexagon. I know this is irrational, but it greatly affects how I view the app.
