DOORS But Bad

DOORS But Bad is a solo-developer fan remake of the iconic Roblox horror game DOORS, created by ImVeryHungry99999999 - who built it, in their own words, "because I was bored." Despite that origin story, the game has accumulated over 102 million visits and 248K favorites, making it one of the most successful DOORS fan experiences on the platform. The game credits LSPLASH (the original DOORS developer) openly in its description and takes a deliberately comedic, lower-fidelity approach to the horror hotel formula.

The core loop mirrors DOORS - navigate through numbered hotel rooms while evading monster entities - but with its own twist:

• 🗺️ Daily Runs - a scheduled mode where all players attempt the same pre-generated floor layout each day, creating a shared community challenge
• ⚔️ Mayhem Mode - a high-chaos alternate mode with elevated difficulty and more aggressive entity encounters
• 🎭 Jim and Jimothy - the game's own entity roster, comedic reinterpretations of DOORS monsters each with their own encounter badges
• ⚔️ Backwards Survival - a challenge element where navigating in reverse earns the "A Couple Steps Forward" badge
• 💼 Self Defense passes - optional gamepasses letting players fight back, from a Glock 19 for PvP (100 R$) to an AK-12 effective against monsters (750 R$)
• 🏆 Stone Low badge - the core completion badge awarded for escaping the Hotel, earned by roughly 2% of sessions

The 76.9% approval rating reflects its niche: players expecting a serious horror experience may leave disappointed, while those who embrace the "But Bad" premise as an intentional aesthetic become loyal fans. Private servers are free, making it easy to run a controlled attempt without triggering other players' animations.

DOORS But Bad is best understood as a comedic tribute to DOORS with unique modes that the original does not offer, particularly the Daily Runs system that drives daily return visits and community discussion.
