after the line where she says "See how you sound So small and insignificant" I could be wrong but it sounds like she says "except for me" and if so I love it
I think it'd be cool to someday see this series of maps get remade in something like Unreal engine as it's own seperate game. It deserves more recognition than it recieves.
It's amazing how much of a compelling character Inno is despite never having any actual appearances, and she only communicates through snippets of song. It really goes to show how much skill went into curating Voidmall as an experience. All this to say that occasionally I'll load up the map again and just hang out in the mall for while. I don't want Inno to feel alone
This song is her experience, in the same sound, she sings to the player, she sings to "Sun" and even to herself, now the player just needs to know how to interpret it. and thanks for the comment, it means a lot to me 💕
I like to think Inno started singing in happiness because someone arrived, but as time goes on, she realizes you’re trying to leave, but is trying to get you to stay anyways. But, she either can’t get you to, or can’t bring herself to keep you here. So, Inno finally leaves the keys on the bathroom sink. Her last verse is sad, disappointed that you’re leaving her. Leave me alone makes it sound like this is always the outcome and you aren’t the first visitor and she’s sad because you’re just like the others.
@@mrscruffles801 Are you sure you’d starve? It sounds like this might not be our reality. Who knows how time and all that works in the Nowhere Mall. What likely happened is that the player stepped through a door that didn’t exist before and they basically ended up in the backrooms.
If I were actually in the void mall, I'd sit down by one of her cutouts and listen to the silence. She's alive and self aware but all she has is cripling lonelyness.
@@lexibyday9504 Best I can do for hj er unfortunately is hang out in the mall for a few hours a day while I test out the parkour mods I got from workshop.
This is so good! When The Librarian played the first map and that little fragment of music played before he entered the hallway OMG. I searched for a full song and couldn't find anything. So I am so happy that we have a full song now.
same, even though this isn't the full song, and in fact the snippet the librarian heard isn't actually featured in this song... i just hope the one from white complex will be in this one (i assume this song will be updated as more music gets placed in the maps)
The lyrics from what I can hear Pls lmk if there are any mistakes or if you hear different I see your eyes Lost in the haze of the past Your searching for something But it just wont last You think you know What the world should be But a voice has emerged And its taking the lead See how you sound So small and insignificant (??? Cant make it out i think it might say "in the end") (Somethings followed me here) I traveled far, sung my heart out But now I'm weary.. I need some quiet The stage, the lights They're all too much (too much) Please go away I don't want to sing anymore In this silent revelry I find my peace Away from melodies And harmonies I long for solitude And my voice is still Just Go away I dont want to sing anymore The key is in the bathroom... (Well if you want to leave that bad go ahead!) Go away leave me alone X 8 When your standing here Staring at the door Afraid to take that step And explore Don't let fear Hold you back from the unknown There's a world out there Just waiting to be shown Out my door Don't need no company Got my headphones on Rocking to the beat I'm walking down the street With my head up high But you keep buggin me Can't take no more lies (Oh yeah leave me alone) Go away leave me alone X 4 (I'm better off on my own) I heard this song in The Librarians video on the voidmall and I HAD to find it. It's also fitting how nostalgic this song makes me feel. Reminds me of chilling in TF2 Trade Lobbies making friends and finding hidden secrets on the map.
The key is in the bathroom Not back room. After that I think she says “if you want to leave that there, go ahead.” Meaning you can choose to leave the keys on the sink and ignore them.
Full disclaimer, I’m generally not a fan of generative AI, but I think you’ve used it well here. Here’s why: - Complementary: the song is a secondary part of a larger experience (vp_voidmall) - Thematic: it fits the vibe of the map on multiple levels, as weirdness (and other ideas) being expressed through the rearrangement/alteration of the conceptually familiar - Non-commercial: vp_voidmall is (naturally) free to experience Basically, I think you’re using AI honestly here, despite the fuzziness of the line. I really like your maps (the all-custom assets are great, and make a unique and coherent atmosphere), so wherever you take your talent from here, please bring your creative honesty with you!
I have always been very honest, both in my life, with my friendships, etc... with my work it would be no different I agree with you, AI content is controversial, due to its potential to "replace artists' work" I agree with this phrase, but I think differently, AI does not have the potential to create, only to replicate what we create... I believe that it will always need a human soul behind it, to give it meaning, feeling... a purpose! That's what I did with Inno... without her character, her original design, the place where she is performed... her music would just be another soulless prompt out there. thanks for the comment! I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your words
She can manipulate the mall and make objects appear I'm pretty sure she can materialize food. But I'd honestly prefer to have her as my personal void space exploration buddy rather than be confined in the mall.
Played though voidplaces and the mall and WOW I did NOT expect the creativity of the puzzles! I was also quite surprised to see a sentient character that isn't "Jimmy". (which is what I nicknamed the carboard cutout in voidplaces) It's a shame we have to dig deeper into downcorridors (or pink place depending on the route you take) so we are forced to leave her behind. (all the while she gets understandably pissed that we are leaving as the first contact in a long time) All in all I can't wait to see what lies in pink place or downcorridors!
(Spoilers for the map) Things we can infer about inno from the map: Inno clearly has a flair for the dramatic. She literally makes a concert hall with stage lights so she can have big dramantic goodbye scene for everyone passing through. Inno clearly understands human architecture to some degree. If she made the malls layout and style. Though her knowlege is only surface level. Like she knows people like pools, she knows people like malls, she knows peiple like grass and the blue sky. So she emulates it without knowong why we like those things. She also knows people dont like dark areas, which is why the undervelly of the mall is so unwelcoming. As she wants to deter people from the exit and from leaving. The moment during the map where you find her cardboard cutout Infront of the locked doors to the couch room. I think shes just playful challenging you to find a way to open the door for her. I think she is either locked out of that room or is pretending to be locked out as once you unlock the doors to the couch room she will appear on the portrait in the room with a rather happy expression. I think the couch room was her attempt to give you a "bedroom" in the mall. As the whole scenario gives me a "tada surprise! this is my gift to you!" Kinda vibe. So in summary we got a mischievous mall gremlin diva who has a flair for the dramatic with a heart of gold. Who also has abandonment issues that ks extenely desperate to keep someone around yet is trying to come off as confident and in control of the situation.
Thanks! you read it very well. a curious fact; Some people told me that ironically, she reminds me of Spinel from Steven Universe. The most curious thing is that I didn't remember this character. and when I went to look, I almost had a crisis. because of the design, and personality
@@PnkBl4ck I can see it. Both are Lonely bubblegum gals. Though another character inno reminds me off is toriel from undertale. Not so much for physical similarities but for how there roles in there respective narratives are quite similar to one another. Both inno and toriel try to make safe places for humans in hostile environments. While toriel is the guardian of the ruins that keep humans from entering the underground. Inno acts in a similar way. Trying to guide people to her mall from the voidplaces map. Inno's mall whether or not intentionally acts as a sort of safe tutorial to exploring and navigating the other areas of void spaces Inno and toriel both have the intention to shield you from the outside world and to take care of you to some degree. But both of them eventually relent and let the human go. Letting the human go forward to find there own ways home. That's probably another reason why the community likes inno as she is the only entity so far to interact so directly with the player in a benevolent manner. She at the very least is more welcoming than that fnaf endoskeleton looking guy from pink place. Lol Thanks for commenting though. I plan on making a video essay on more of my findings about inno and other entities of void spaces maps at some point. Hope you enjoy them if I ever get around to making em.
This song scratched my brain in a very good way. If you extract it from the context of Nowhere Mall, the song reminds me so much of niche songs from the 2010's when I was only about 5-9 years old. It's just amazing
Yeah, I really like these styles, and when I saw this song, I instantly remembered Euro-dance. In fact, I think the one that comes closest to Inno is: ian carey - keep on rising.
You should most definitely add these to Spotify. I'd love to have this and Enter a Door on my playlist! Can't wait to see what you plan for your next maps. I've already shared your projects with a few of my friends and they love it as much as I do. Very excited for your next installments of the Voidplaces!
where can i find lyrics? i need it right now, please!! english is not my native language, so i want to translate this song for me, but it’s kinda difficult..also, your maps are beautiful, i’m truly in love. i can’t wait to see what’s next. good luck!
i got them!!! feel free to put them in google translate or something I see your eyes, lost in the haze of the past You're searching for something but it just won't last You think you know what the world should be But a voice has emerged and it's taking the lead Sing how you sound so small and insignificant (oh yeah) (There's something following me, oh yeah) I traveled far, I shook my heart out But now I'm weary I need some quiet The stage, the lights They're all too much (too much) (Please go away) (I don't want to sing any more) In this silent reverie I find my peace Away from memories And harmonies I long for solitude, where my voice is still Please go away, I don't want to sing anymore The key is in the bathroom Well, if you want to leave that bad, go ahead (Go) away, leave me alone Go away, leave me alone Go away, leave me alone Go away, leave me alone Go away, leave me alone Go away, leave me alone When you're standing here, staring at the door Afraid to take the step and explore Don't let fear hold you back from the unknown There's a world out there, just waiting to be shown In my doubt Don't need no company Got my headphones on Rockin' to the beat (to the beat) I'm walkin' down the street With my head up high But you keep buggin' me Can't take no more lies Ooh yeah Leave me alone Go away, leave me alone Go away, leave me alone Go away, leave me alone Go away, leave me alone (I'm better off on my own)
I love this song so much because it just adds to the mall in so many ways. At first it's just background noise, but soon, when you start realizing Inno is an actual person, you hear the words, and actually start to make sense of them, and then it's like an 'OOOOHHHH' moment. Absolutely amazing design. This is an instance that I feel that ai was used in a good way. And, since it was made with ai, it really fits the liminal theme, because it feels vaguely nonsensical. Honestly, I think you're up there in my "Favorite artist/inspirations" list. Was Inno's design ai generated as well, or did you make her on her own? She has a really good design imo. I might make fanart of her!
Inno was made by me, it was part of another project I was creating! like I needed a "mascot" or something. I reused her sprite. and it really worked. They really liked her character, that makes me very happy
I saw a couple videos from The Librarian of your work and God. Something just makes me adore the three entities in those two maps. Honestly? Voidplaces and Voidmall might just convince me to finally buy GMod. Ive seen good maps, but these two? Theyre just. Something else. I want to experience them for myself. Most maps are cool, but thats it - once you watch someone play it, youve got the experience. But no, your maps...theres some sort of yearning to explore the endless halls of Voidplaces and the neon corridors of Voidmall. I cant get it out of my head. And really, seeing your maps yesterday was the best possible way to spend my day. I had to force myself to not take my adhd meds, which meant id be gloomy and just. Irreparably bored. But then i found those videos, and then this song/channel!! And suddenly everything was okay again!! Im just. I just wanna say thank you for creating these cool maps. And im definitely going to replay this song for a very long time, its stranvely comforting, just like your maps
I ever since I became familiar with the concept of genius loci or the *soul* of a place that allows for that place to have a mind on its own way despite lacking the usual element we would asssosiate with sapience(such as a organic physical body) and can be many things for example towers, houses, hotels, mansions, etc) cities, and at their most powerful, can range to an entire planet due to them not possesses any size limits that are usually associated with organic life as we know it I believe the genus loci of the nowhere mall is inno, and due to her nature as a very liked mascot the genus locrum ended up taking much of her personality and mannerisms wile it was gaining its own individuality with the og inno as a template,It may have awoken its sapience when the pink sun started to shine upon it or when it was an regular mall in its home dimension it slowly started to develop her one sense of self and this process continues wile the mall is in a black void being illuminated by a pink *thing* Inno is a relatively young genius loci and due to this she has some difficulty’s in interacting with other beings she may want to have as company Such as being able to produce actual proper food due to not having the necessary knowledge to create the components that makes up food, the simpler innorganic items inside the mall are more easily to manipulate for inno because she has had since her construction such as walls the furnitures inside the mall pipes,glass,simple electrics systems such as the lights,signs, the vending machines, the tv computers and psa system/sound system are the more complex elements that inno had to deal with for her to communicate with the visitors to the nowhere mall such as this song that represents her feelings of meeting the player and being exited but as the player progresses trough the map she slowly comes to realize the player isn’t there to stay and is seeking a exit to this void they found themselves in and she gives the player the keys to the player so that they can leave when they wish to do so. What’s actually really sad once you think about how many beings have come and gone trough to the nowhere mall for inno to have “composed” an song to tell them the *key* for their further exploring is in the bathroom?
It would be cool if every void places map will have its own character. Almost like Bioshock levels each have their own insane people. Different people that somehow control the spaces you're in...
Finally i can hear a more clear version of the song and understand the lyrics much better. and i'm not gonna lie, its actually quite catchy. I'm also quite impressed with the map itself(both detail and story-wise). it barely felt like i was playing Gmod anymore, and felt like a whole new game of its own. i'm looking forward to see what else you make in the future.
This song, even outside of the context of the map it was made for, just hits so hard. I don't usually listen to pop music (i think this is pop?) And then in the context of the map, i just wanna go there, sit down and have a conversation with her.
your content already makes me feel like i'm falling down the best kind of rabbit hole, having such a banger soundtrack to go with it just makes me feel spoiled
I like it. Am watching the map explored by The Librarian. The neons all over the place and the words in neon mixed with this song playing gave me huge 80s vibes my absolute favourite
When I finally made the levelchange in gm_voidplaces work, I was absolutely STUNNED by the build-up to entering the mall and then Inno's presence all throughout the mall. I havent seen any maps with level changes in years, let alone this quality. Good job, pink black.
Most great horror maps and games have a segment that will stick with you for a long time. Somthing you will think back too even when it over. Never in my life did I think it would be a neon pink anime girl mascot for a shoping mall with banger tunes
Voidmall is my all time favourite Garry’s Mod map, the story, the vibes and the scenery are top notch. Inno speaking through music is absolutely awesome, the mall itself is beautiful. I revisit the map all the time, the care and effort put into it is evident. Keep up the awesome work man!
i- every time i hear this i genuinly hope we get either a good ending with inno, like liberate her and take her with us or maybe even a plan to return, so heartbreaking T~T
banger for an atmospheric map even its made by an AI, hopefully I get to know everything about Pink void ngl when I heard this for the first time and I thought its just some random music like the rest until I realized it feels like it communicates you whenever you go💀
It turned out pretty cool, right? I really wanted the music to be generic, like some pop or something that plays in shopping malls I'm not a music artist! and I was already dealing with the creation of assets and the map itself, learning something else to incorporate would be overwhelming. So, knowing this AI, I thought about exploring my weak point. and Inno, came at a good time, the songs would just be ambient. until I had the idea of her communicating in some way with the player and as it was an artificial intelligence, sometimes it really sounds "not human" (because it really isn't) which is perfect So I embraced the flaws, and let Inno exist
@@PnkBl4ck Im a bit of autistic but I kinda love this map bec of similarity of liminal space since i read it bec its an inspiration until this exist, kinda bored of those bore crap maps, 2D nextbots and skibidi toilets, however I will never hesitate to shoot that moves if there's a creature around non-human
This series of maps is exactly what I was looking for. I love maps with the sole purpose of having you exploring AND giving you a goal with this exploration. On top of that, it has a story to give. I can’t wait to see what other named characters we’ll meet in the future!
I absolutely fell in love with Void Mall after watching The Librarian’s video on it. Towards the end with the revelation that Inno was reaching out to us through the song was such an inspiring and epic moment. I’m currently developing a game of my own and I’m wanting to add an area similar to some liminal space concepts. Would it be okay with you for me to use Inno and her story/emotion/concept as inspiration for this section? The story of the game is heavily inspired by lucid dreams and many of the sections are created through my own experiences with them. Void Mall and Inno fit perfectly in how one of these dreams would play out.
Hey! Just want to say that the Story You're making is interesting! I'm guessing that the Pink sun (I believe is a eye) that is effecting everything is a creative villain, since you don't see that these days! I can't wait to understand and explore the story more! OH! Almost forgot! Happy New Year! :>
Yes, Inno's songs were generated with Suno Ai. The reason why this version is decent is because out of several versions, I separated the best ones and put them together into a whole song. taking into account what Inno is, and what her personality is
This song is so amazing! I loved all the maps you created! After watching the librarian I went to play it for myself in Gmod and it was very fun to walk around these maps! Keep on creating these amazing maps! Also which prompts did you use to create this in Suno?
@@somebodyrandominthisw0rld822 As funny as it may be. the prompt was "aggressive synthwave" Of the songs that came out, this was the one I explored the most. Thank you for your comment, it makes me really happy. 💕
Damnn thats amazing, this part in particular 2:18 got goosebumps great job Especially the map! I love your world building. This track is now in my playlist ^^ (Sorry for my broken English xD🇩🇪)
hey dude! your maps are awesome, it's genuinely one of the best gmod experiences i've had in a while. at the end of my exploration of pinkplace i was noclipping around and found a room that played audio from different youtubers playing the maps - including my favorite one, The Librarian! so cool to hear his voice put into the actual map. also i keep wondering what "now and heremore" means, it seems to be referring to a place? "at now and heremore" also would you be okay with sharing the audio file of the screechy announcement sound effect? i really like it and want to use it for a project. tysm for reading ❤
Amazing soundtrack! I played your map and enjoyed it well, really got me grooving my fears away, you got amazing talent at map creating and world building!
After playing the map a few times i really noticed that the full version is missing so much. out of the many clips i heard, only 2 were i heard were used in this full version. P'nk Black, i ask you to make a vid of all the clips weather its mixed well or not. please! i beg! the clips you didn't put in are so good. pleeaasee!!
i have a question about Voidmall if you want to answer or give hints. my friend and I were snooping around and found a texture of Inno named "start2" that we could not figure out how to trigger. i wanted to know if it was like a scrapped texture or something in the map that we haven't found? (also my friend is Seven :P)
when I create things! I do it in a way that gives me several possibilities of use when I created Inno! it was a very simple concept actually, it was just to be a mascot for an event that took place a long time ago at this mall. As if she were a poster girl! So I created several "skins" with different expressions to test my events Time passed, I used an AI to make the Shopping song, and because the vocals were female, my friends associated it with her, so I made it cannon in a way Maybe in the future, I will use these different expressions, but nothing confirmed yet
I was waiting for voidmall or Pinkplace since i completed this map many times when gm_voidplaces comes out, always checking updates on your workshop. And now waiting for a new map again. I hope it's not the last time we saw Inno. I can't get rid of that tune out of my head now. Is there anyway to make the same song in SUNO, but with my own lyrics? (I wanna make a render about voidmall, but with my own character and it's remix to this song)
Maybe, I don't really know, I've never tried! the seed only generates that same voice (sometimes some male vocals) but mostly Inno's Voice Try to see what you can do: app.suno.ai/song/b2dc508f-d676-453d-a913-33edb4169fa7/ Just click on the three dots below the photo of the song, and in the options you will see "Continue From This Clip"
I hope this all could get a non-AI revision someday, but, i know that would be expensive... also, I get the sense that Inno doesn't want to be alone, and is kinda just struggling with abandonment issues as the cute mascot of an empty dead mall... I just hope her music can be someday redone with that manual attention to detail you've given the map instead of just AI prompted stuff :
I'd fund a non-AI revision. I understand *why* the use of generative AI was used, and I understand that most of the entertainment of this map comes mostly from the way it is made- the actual map itself is a wonderful little thing and had me curious and inquisitive of EVERYTHING the entire way through- grabbing my attention in a way it had not done before. I was a little disheartened to learn that this song wasn't actually made by anyone except AI. And I guess I get it. Making a song would take time, effort and maybe even skills the mapper doesn't have. So you'd need to kind of 'cut corners' where you could, to represent the idea you have in your head. But I'd probably chuck money towards their Patreon for a bit if they change it up, allowing actual talent- be it commissioned by some random person on fiverr or made by someone just as passionate about the map. I think it'd be worth it. Who knows- voidplaces could have it's own team, music and all. Though that boils down to the creator's choice.
@@AmbrosiaPoly-yolkEgg For sure! And I actually got his blessing. So it is now me redoing it without AI! :D (It's also probably going to be my sister doing Inno's vocals.) The instrumental is currently in the works, but the vocals is a bit in the air, at the moment.
Please post a song where she says something similar to ""me day she paaaaass". This clip plays when the player starts walking down the central corridor from the main hall.
I just wanted to ask: Is Oldspaces & Voidspaces connected to the newer maps? Or are they just separate projects? Really want to get neck deep in "The Lore"-
oldspaces and voidspaces take place in the same universe. perhaps at a time when the anomaly was not so present. but in fact, it was beginning. in the trailer for gm_voidspaces, before the fast music starts, you can notice a hint of the new sun
Hello p'nk black! I hope you can read this message :P I'm starting to make a story inspired by your map gm_voidplaces, I just wanted to know if there is no problem in making it, the truth is I love the aesthetics and content of the map, and I want to express it through a story. I hope you understand!
no problem, I love seeing what you do my only request is that you maintain the mystery of the sun, and take into consideration the aesthetics of liminal spaces! Other than that, go crazy, expand as much as possible
Hi!! Big fan of your maps AND this song; however given it's AI generated, I want to ask. Do you ever plan, or hope to, get this remade as an *actual* song? No hate or anything, I'm just curious!!! :) Excited for future maps from you :D !!!
Certainly, Inno's songs were an experiment that worked. I believe in inspiration and human works. For me, AI serves to support the creative mind (construction of ideas, etc...) being a normal guy, whose only skills are level design, and creating textures... learning more skills is somewhat complicated. Not impossible, but complicated. I really admire solo devs who can do a little bit of everything. Inno was a happy accident, in my view! I really thought people wouldn't like the idea, especially seeing that the songs are made by an AI... no matter how much I write them, the biggest work (in the songs) still comes from the AI. And yes, eventually I would love to do the original version of these songs Thank you for your comment, I hope I answered
@TheGorepill I actually got P'nk's blessing, and it's now officially me redoing the song without AI. :) It will definitely take a bit, but I'm committed, and I hope ya'll will like the new version when it gets completed. 🩷
"She is in the bathroom? Oh you want to leave that bad go ahead" it's like the NextBot know where you are and see you leaving your hidding spot and starting the pursuit. "Go away, leave me alone" part give me the impression of someone running away of a NextBot in panic. "You standing here staring at the door, afraid to take a step at the next door" it's the feeling of entering a place the NextBot may be wandering.
"The key is in the bathroom" Inno is letting the player leave. She's giving them the key (it's in the bathroom lmao) "Go away, leave me alone" not entirely sure what this part is meaning, it might be Inno talking to you, might be Inno talking to herself referring about the new sun, we don't really know "When you're standing here, staring at the door Afraid to take the step and explore Don't let fear hold you back from the unknown There's a world out there, just waiting to be shown" i *THINK* refers to the condition of most people in-universe with the doors materializing in their homes; she's referring to the fact that the authorities are saying not to go in because it's yknow, non-Euclidean temporal anomalies etc etc but she's referring to how it's an entirely new world that you'd never get to experience or something idk man
It was AI, not really made by the map maker. Though the mainstream industry sucks anyways and kind of serves to the recycle the same garbage over and over.
Hey, am I able to get an explanation about the line where she talks about her trapped brother or friend she tried to rescue? it's been eating away at me lol.
@@lukmort well it was after I entered a set of doors not accessible through voidmall normally located in the pool area. If you no clip around you'll see white hallways that lead to poolrooms. Don't go in but instead follow them to a tubular corridor and even further back and then walk through it normally.
In fact, there is a connection! oldspaces and voidspaces, it's basically a few days before the anomalies start to get stronger... if you watch the voidspaces trailer, there's a part where a pink light starts to take over the scene... it's the beginning
after the line where she says "See how you sound
So small and insignificant" I could be wrong but it sounds like she says "except for me" and if so I love it
👀👀👀👀👀👀
Wait....WHAT... 👀👀👀
I can't hear anything between "insignificant" and "something following me"
Bro, you're onto something
WHY THE FUCK DOES A SONG MADE FOR A GMOD HORROR MAP GO SO HARD 😭
I think it'd be cool to someday see this series of maps get remade in something like Unreal engine as it's own seperate game. It deserves more recognition than it recieves.
Straight up, each time a snippet of this song played in Void Mall I stopped and had my character dance.
It's amazing how much of a compelling character Inno is despite never having any actual appearances, and she only communicates through snippets of song. It really goes to show how much skill went into curating Voidmall as an experience.
All this to say that occasionally I'll load up the map again and just hang out in the mall for while. I don't want Inno to feel alone
Something I strangely love is how the music goes from almost... taunting, malicious even? To almost upset and desperate that you're leaving
This song is her experience, in the same sound, she sings to the player, she sings to "Sun" and even to herself, now the player just needs to know how to interpret it. and thanks for the comment, it means a lot to me 💕
I like to think Inno started singing in happiness because someone arrived, but as time goes on, she realizes you’re trying to leave, but is trying to get you to stay anyways. But, she either can’t get you to, or can’t bring herself to keep you here. So, Inno finally leaves the keys on the bathroom sink. Her last verse is sad, disappointed that you’re leaving her. Leave me alone makes it sound like this is always the outcome and you aren’t the first visitor and she’s sad because you’re just like the others.
Well staying in an abandoned mall where you'll starve to death is asking a bit much of anyone
@@mrscruffles801
Are you sure you’d starve? It sounds like this might not be our reality. Who knows how time and all that works in the Nowhere Mall.
What likely happened is that the player stepped through a door that didn’t exist before and they basically ended up in the backrooms.
@@Real_Moon-Moon Well I checked the food court and there's nothing open. I can spawn some food props though lol
@@mrscruffles801
I meant in terms of time. I’m not sure how that works or if you get hungry here.
I want to give the biggest shoutout to Librarian and you for making me afraid of empty malls 💪💪
Cheers, same here
Can't believe voidmall came out 7 months ago, it is such a great map.
If I were actually in the void mall, I'd sit down by one of her cutouts and listen to the silence. She's alive and self aware but all she has is cripling lonelyness.
I'd love to be there to comfort her

When I stepped outside at no-clip and looked up at the sky and saw the distorted pink sun, I was struck with a strong sense of dread.
I just realised that the glitches in the video are clips of the map being played.
Neat detail dude
This is so good! When The Librarian played the first map and that little fragment of music played before he entered the hallway OMG. I searched for a full song and couldn't find anything. So I am so happy that we have a full song now.
Yo same
same, even though this isn't the full song, and in fact the snippet the librarian heard isn't actually featured in this song... i just hope the one from white complex will be in this one (i assume this song will be updated as more music gets placed in the maps)
I never knew a GMOD map could have banger OST but here It goes lol, love the stuff.
The lyrics from what I can hear Pls lmk if there are any mistakes or if you hear different
I see your eyes
Lost in the haze of the past
Your searching for something
But it just wont last
You think you know
What the world should be
But a voice has emerged
And its taking the lead
See how you sound
So small and insignificant
(??? Cant make it out i think it might say "in the end")
(Somethings followed me here)
I traveled far, sung my heart out
But now I'm weary..
I need some quiet
The stage, the lights
They're all too much (too much)
Please go away
I don't want to sing anymore
In this silent revelry
I find my peace
Away from melodies
And harmonies
I long for solitude
And my voice is still
Just Go away
I dont want to sing anymore
The key is in the bathroom...
(Well if you want to leave that bad go ahead!)
Go away leave me alone X 8
When your standing here
Staring at the door
Afraid to take that step
And explore
Don't let fear
Hold you back from the unknown
There's a world out there
Just waiting to be shown
Out my door
Don't need no company
Got my headphones on
Rocking to the beat
I'm walking down the street
With my head up high
But you keep buggin me
Can't take no more lies
(Oh yeah leave me alone)
Go away leave me alone X 4
(I'm better off on my own)
I heard this song in The Librarians video on the voidmall and I HAD to find it. It's also fitting how nostalgic this song makes me feel. Reminds me of chilling in TF2 Trade Lobbies making friends and finding hidden secrets on the map.
The key is in the bathroom
Not back room.
After that I think she says “if you want to leave that there, go ahead.”
Meaning you can choose to leave the keys on the sink and ignore them.
Got my headphones on, rocking to the beat.
Nothing about bouncin’.
I'm pretty sure "Just waiting to be sure" is actually "Just waiting to be shown."
@@TheOneGuy1111 I agree.
@@TheOneGuy1111 yeah it is
Full disclaimer, I’m generally not a fan of generative AI, but I think you’ve used it well here. Here’s why:
- Complementary: the song is a secondary part of a larger experience (vp_voidmall)
- Thematic: it fits the vibe of the map on multiple levels, as weirdness (and other ideas) being expressed through the rearrangement/alteration of the conceptually familiar
- Non-commercial: vp_voidmall is (naturally) free to experience
Basically, I think you’re using AI honestly here, despite the fuzziness of the line. I really like your maps (the all-custom assets are great, and make a unique and coherent atmosphere), so wherever you take your talent from here, please bring your creative honesty with you!
I have always been very honest, both in my life, with my friendships, etc... with my work it would be no different
I agree with you, AI content is controversial, due to its potential to "replace artists' work"
I agree with this phrase, but I think differently, AI does not have the potential to create, only to replicate what we create... I believe that it will always need a human soul behind it, to give it meaning, feeling... a purpose!
That's what I did with Inno... without her character, her original design, the place where she is performed... her music would just be another soulless prompt out there.
thanks for the comment! I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your words
I'd stay in the mall with Inno, if there was a way to find any food...
She can manipulate the mall and make objects appear I'm pretty sure she can materialize food. But I'd honestly prefer to have her as my personal void space exploration buddy rather than be confined in the mall.
@@ViperaBerusAdder Same, though the mall is such an awesome-looking place
I love that character design, works well with the song.
Played though voidplaces and the mall and WOW I did NOT expect the creativity of the puzzles! I was also quite surprised to see a sentient character that isn't "Jimmy". (which is what I nicknamed the carboard cutout in voidplaces) It's a shame we have to dig deeper into downcorridors (or pink place depending on the route you take) so we are forced to leave her behind. (all the while she gets understandably pissed that we are leaving as the first contact in a long time) All in all I can't wait to see what lies in pink place or downcorridors!
"The key's iiin the bathrooom"
(Spoilers for the map)
Things we can infer about inno from the map:
Inno clearly has a flair for the dramatic.
She literally makes a concert hall with stage lights so she can have big dramantic goodbye scene for everyone passing through.
Inno clearly understands human architecture to some degree. If she made the malls layout and style. Though her knowlege is only surface level. Like she knows people like pools, she knows people like malls, she knows peiple like grass and the blue sky. So she emulates it without knowong why we like those things. She also knows people dont like dark areas, which is why the undervelly of the mall is so unwelcoming. As she wants to deter people from the exit and from leaving.
The moment during the map where you find her cardboard cutout Infront of the locked doors to the couch room. I think shes just playful challenging you to find a way to open the door for her. I think she is either locked out of that room or is pretending to be locked out as once you unlock the doors to the couch room she will appear on the portrait in the room with a rather happy expression. I think the couch room was her attempt to give you a "bedroom" in the mall. As the whole scenario gives me a "tada surprise! this is my gift to you!" Kinda vibe.
So in summary we got a mischievous mall gremlin diva who has a flair for the dramatic with a heart of gold. Who also has abandonment issues that ks extenely desperate to keep someone around yet is trying to come off as confident and in control of the situation.
Thanks! you read it very well. a curious fact; Some people told me that ironically, she reminds me of Spinel from Steven Universe. The most curious thing is that I didn't remember this character. and when I went to look, I almost had a crisis. because of the design, and personality
@@PnkBl4ck I can see it. Both are
Lonely bubblegum gals.
Though another character inno reminds me off is toriel from undertale. Not so much for physical similarities but for how there roles in there respective narratives are quite similar to one another.
Both inno and toriel try to make safe places for humans in hostile environments. While toriel is the guardian of the ruins that keep humans from entering the underground.
Inno acts in a similar way. Trying to guide people to her mall from the voidplaces map.
Inno's mall whether or not intentionally acts as a sort of safe tutorial to exploring and navigating the other areas of void spaces
Inno and toriel both have the intention to shield you from the outside world and to take care of you to some degree.
But both of them eventually relent and let the human go. Letting the human go forward to find there own ways home.
That's probably another reason why the community likes inno as she is the only entity so far to interact so directly with the player in a benevolent manner.
She at the very least is more welcoming than that fnaf endoskeleton looking guy from pink place. Lol
Thanks for commenting though. I plan on making a video essay on more of my findings about inno and other entities of void spaces maps at some point. Hope you enjoy them if I ever get around to making em.
This song scratched my brain in a very good way. If you extract it from the context of Nowhere Mall, the song reminds me so much of niche songs from the 2010's when I was only about 5-9 years old. It's just amazing
Yeah, I really like these styles, and when I saw this song, I instantly remembered Euro-dance. In fact, I think the one that comes closest to Inno is:
ian carey - keep on rising.
You should most definitely add these to Spotify. I'd love to have this and Enter a Door on my playlist!
Can't wait to see what you plan for your next maps. I've already shared your projects with a few of my friends and they love it as much as I do. Very excited for your next installments of the Voidplaces!
where can i find lyrics? i need it right now, please!! english is not my native language, so i want to translate this song for me, but it’s kinda difficult..also, your maps are beautiful, i’m truly in love. i can’t wait to see what’s next. good luck!
Same here
i got them!!! feel free to put them in google translate or something
I see your eyes, lost in the haze of the past
You're searching for something but it just won't last
You think you know what the world should be
But a voice has emerged and it's taking the lead
Sing how you sound so small and insignificant (oh yeah)
(There's something following me, oh yeah)
I traveled far, I shook my heart out
But now I'm weary
I need some quiet
The stage, the lights
They're all too much (too much)
(Please go away) (I don't want to sing any more)
In this silent reverie
I find my peace
Away from memories

Go away, leave me alone
Go away, leave me alone

Afraid to take the step and explore

im considering unprivating my twitter account just to post fanart of inno,,,
I love this song so much because it just adds to the mall in so many ways.
At first it's just background noise, but soon, when you start realizing Inno is an actual person, you hear the words, and actually start to make sense of them, and then it's like an 'OOOOHHHH' moment. Absolutely amazing design.
This is an instance that I feel that ai was used in a good way. And, since it was made with ai, it really fits the liminal theme, because it feels vaguely nonsensical.
Honestly, I think you're up there in my "Favorite artist/inspirations" list.
Was Inno's design ai generated as well, or did you make her on her own? She has a really good design imo. I might make fanart of her!
Inno was made by me, it was part of another project I was creating! like I needed a "mascot" or something. I reused her sprite. and it really worked. They really liked her character, that makes me very happy
@@PnkBl4ckYou did a great job designing her character. Reminds me on how much I used to draw my own characters.
This is so good. Needs a soundcloud or spotify upload tbh. ^^
this might be my new favorite song, you should do more. Inno is so cute/spooky I love her.
You did a fantastic job with the map!! I'm editing my exploration now, and hope to get it done soon. Excited for vp_downcorridors and Pink Place!
I saw a couple videos from The Librarian of your work and God. Something just makes me adore the three entities in those two maps. Honestly? Voidplaces and Voidmall might just convince me to finally buy GMod. Ive seen good maps, but these two? Theyre just. Something else. I want to experience them for myself. Most maps are cool, but thats it - once you watch someone play it, youve got the experience. But no, your maps...theres some sort of yearning to explore the endless halls of Voidplaces and the neon corridors of Voidmall. I cant get it out of my head.
And really, seeing your maps yesterday was the best possible way to spend my day. I had to force myself to not take my adhd meds, which meant id be gloomy and just. Irreparably bored. But then i found those videos, and then this song/channel!! And suddenly everything was okay again!! Im just. I just wanna say thank you for creating these cool maps. And im definitely going to replay this song for a very long time, its stranvely comforting, just like your maps
Your comment made my day! Thank you very much, I'm very happy that you liked my projects. This means a lot to me, thank you
This project is so good. You should submit this to Night Mind's index of unfiction. There seems to be much to be uncovered.
Am i the only one who finds inno somehow cute?
Yes I agree with you
You are correct
I ever since I became familiar with the concept of genius loci or the *soul* of a place that allows for that place to have a mind on its own way despite lacking the usual element we would asssosiate with sapience(such as a organic physical body) and can be many things for example towers, houses, hotels, mansions, etc) cities, and at their most powerful, can range to an entire planet due to them not possesses any size limits that are usually associated with organic life as we know it
I believe the genus loci of the nowhere mall is inno, and due to her nature as a very liked mascot the genus locrum ended up taking much of her personality and mannerisms
wile it was gaining its own individuality with the og inno as a template,It may have awoken its sapience when the pink sun started to shine upon it or when it was an regular mall in its home dimension it slowly started to develop her one sense of self and this process continues wile the mall is in a black void being illuminated by a pink *thing*
Inno is a relatively young genius loci and due to this she has some difficulty’s in interacting with other beings she may want to have as company
Such as being able to produce actual proper food due to not having the necessary knowledge to create the components that makes up food, the simpler innorganic items inside the mall are more easily to manipulate for inno because she has had since her construction such as walls the furnitures inside the mall pipes,glass,simple electrics systems such as the lights,signs, the vending machines, the tv
computers and psa system/sound system are the more complex elements that inno had to deal with for her to communicate with the visitors to the nowhere mall
such as this song that represents her feelings of meeting the player and being exited but as the player progresses trough the map she slowly comes to realize the player isn’t there to stay and is seeking a exit to this void they found themselves in and she gives the player the keys to the player so that they can leave
when they wish to do so.
What’s actually really sad once you think about how many beings have come and gone trough to the nowhere mall for inno to have “composed” an song to tell them the *key* for their further exploring is in the bathroom?
It would be cool if every void places map will have its own character. Almost like Bioshock levels each have their own insane people. Different people that somehow control the spaces you're in...
Finally i can hear a more clear version of the song and understand the lyrics much better. and i'm not gonna lie, its actually quite catchy.
I'm also quite impressed with the map itself(both detail and story-wise). it barely felt like i was playing Gmod anymore, and felt like a whole new game of its own. i'm looking forward to see what else you make in the future.
Making the songs AI generated was a very clever decision for the very map it was intended for. Well done on this map.
This has absolutely no right to slap as hard as it does. When used correctly, generative AI really is a powerful tool, great work.
This song, even outside of the context of the map it was made for, just hits so hard. I don't usually listen to pop music (i think this is pop?)
And then in the context of the map, i just wanna go there, sit down and have a conversation with her.
Well it’s EDM, so I’m sure EDM falls under Pop Music.
Edit: I just now quickly remembered how much I have listened to EDM before.
your content already makes me feel like i'm falling down the best kind of rabbit hole, having such a banger soundtrack to go with it just makes me feel spoiled
I like it. Am watching the map explored by The Librarian.
The neons all over the place and the words in neon mixed with this song playing gave me huge 80s vibes my absolute favourite
He's hilarious but far too easily jumpscared
lol
ive had this on repeat all day. absolute banger. map is so detailed to. W map and song!
When I finally made the levelchange in gm_voidplaces work, I was absolutely STUNNED by the build-up to entering the mall and then Inno's presence all throughout the mall. I havent seen any maps with level changes in years, let alone this quality. Good job, pink black.
Listened to this enough that it featured in a dream! Inno was on the big screen! A liminal environment, even by dream architecture standards.
Most great horror maps and games have a segment that will stick with you for a long time. Somthing you will think back too even when it over. Never in my life did I think it would be a neon pink anime girl mascot for a shoping mall with banger tunes
Voidmall is my all time favourite Garry’s Mod map, the story, the vibes and the scenery are top notch. Inno speaking through music is absolutely awesome, the mall itself is beautiful. I revisit the map all the time, the care and effort put into it is evident. Keep up the awesome work man!
Now I wanna hear the one from Voidplaces cuz gawd damn was that a bop
Holy crap this is my first time ever using Gmod to just explore a map. But I'm glad I did, because this song kicks ass
Thx Man ❤❤❤
This track slaps. I find myself replaying the map constantly just to listen to these bits.
🎶 go away leave me alone 🎶
i- every time i hear this i genuinly hope we get either a good ending with inno, like liberate her and take her with us or maybe even a plan to return, so heartbreaking T~T
You really shined my friend. I found your Void Mall map by pure chance. And what I really found was a gem. A great map along with a great song.
Bro this song slaps hard! This is why i keep re-playing your maps, and i can't wait for what you have next!
banger for an atmospheric map even its made by an AI, hopefully I get to know everything about Pink void
ngl when I heard this for the first time and I thought its just some random music like the rest until I realized it feels like it communicates you whenever you go💀
It turned out pretty cool, right?
I really wanted the music to be generic, like some pop or something that plays in shopping malls
I'm not a music artist! and I was already dealing with the creation of assets and the map itself, learning something else to incorporate would be overwhelming.
So, knowing this AI, I thought about exploring my weak point.
and Inno, came at a good time, the songs would just be ambient. until I had the idea of her communicating in some way with the player
and as it was an artificial intelligence, sometimes it really sounds "not human" (because it really isn't) which is perfect
So I embraced the flaws, and let Inno exist
@@PnkBl4ck Im a bit of autistic but I kinda love this map bec of similarity of liminal space since i read it bec its an inspiration until this exist, kinda bored of those bore crap maps, 2D nextbots and skibidi toilets, however I will never hesitate to shoot that moves if there's a creature around non-human
what the cutie patotis name is?
her name is inno !!
@@sleepyslugcat thx
We're noclipping with this one!!!
WE MAKING IT OUT OF CONSTRUCT WITH THIS ONE
It's been awhile since a garry's mod map has made me felt this way.
This series of maps is exactly what I was looking for.
I love maps with the sole purpose of having you exploring AND giving you a goal with this exploration.
On top of that, it has a story to give.
I can’t wait to see what other named characters we’ll meet in the future!
I absolutely fell in love with Void Mall after watching The Librarian’s video on it. Towards the end with the revelation that Inno was reaching out to us through the song was such an inspiring and epic moment. I’m currently developing a game of my own and I’m wanting to add an area similar to some liminal space concepts. Would it be okay with you for me to use Inno and her story/emotion/concept as inspiration for this section? The story of the game is heavily inspired by lucid dreams and many of the sections are created through my own experiences with them. Void Mall and Inno fit perfectly in how one of these dreams would play out.
but of course Man, everything is fine, I'm happy to read this. thank you very much.
Long awaited sequel of better of alone
These maps are so creepy and innovative! First time i've really been on edge because of a game!
It's so good! Keep up the hard work! :D definitely added to my personal Playlist ❤😊
Hey! Just want to say that the Story You're making is interesting! I'm guessing that the Pink sun (I believe is a eye) that is effecting everything is a creative villain, since you don't see that these days! I can't wait to understand and explore the story more! OH! Almost forgot! Happy New Year! :>
This is AI generated?! This is too much of a banger to be AI generated.
Yes, Inno's songs were generated with Suno Ai. The reason why this version is decent is because out of several versions, I separated the best ones and put them together into a whole song. taking into account what Inno is, and what her personality is
@@PnkBl4ck Well, either way, it's a BANGER. ❤
"I don't want to sing anymore." ... Sorry. You're on repeat.
This is insanely good
C: very nice. Not sure why I didn't think you'd have a youtube channel lol. Well consider me subbed for life. Can't wait for the new updates.
C: Also, Inno is like, one of my favorite characters of all time lol. However you managed to capture my heart with an hour long gmod map you did it.
Is Inno Evil??? Because she Looks Like it Sometimes
What are the benefits of never leaving and befriending the mall waifu?
God, I LOVE this so much. 😭🙏❤️
I'm loving this so much alongside the map 😍 keep up the wonderful work!!
This song is so amazing! I loved all the maps you created! After watching the librarian I went to play it for myself in Gmod and it was very fun to walk around these maps!
Keep on creating these amazing maps!
Also which prompts did you use to create this in Suno?
@@somebodyrandominthisw0rld822 As funny as it may be. the prompt was "aggressive synthwave" Of the songs that came out, this was the one I explored the most. Thank you for your comment, it makes me really happy. 💕
Whens jimmy getting his own solo?
Dr Kleiner and Jotaro Kujo dancing in a dead mall has been burned into my brain.
Damnn thats amazing, this part in particular 2:18 got goosebumps great job
Especially the map! I love your world building.
This track is now in my playlist ^^
(Sorry for my broken English xD🇩🇪)
hey dude! your maps are awesome, it's genuinely one of the best gmod experiences i've had in a while. at the end of my exploration of pinkplace i was noclipping around and found a room that played audio from different youtubers playing the maps - including my favorite one, The Librarian! so cool to hear his voice put into the actual map. also i keep wondering what "now and heremore" means, it seems to be referring to a place? "at now and heremore"
also would you be okay with sharing the audio file of the screechy announcement sound effect? i really like it and want to use it for a project. tysm for reading ❤
It's "Now & Here Mall" hahaha
Thank you, I'm very happy to read this, I hope to bring more and more experiences like these in the future
@@PnkBl4ck ohhh that does make a lot more sense
Amazing soundtrack! I played your map and enjoyed it well, really got me grooving my fears away, you got amazing talent at map creating and world building!
After playing the map a few times i really noticed that the full version is missing so much. out of the many clips i heard, only 2 were i heard were used in this full version. P'nk Black, i ask you to make a vid of all the clips weather its mixed well or not. please! i beg! the clips you didn't put in are so good. pleeaasee!!
i have a question about Voidmall if you want to answer or give hints. my friend and I were snooping around and found a texture of Inno named "start2" that we could not figure out how to trigger. i wanted to know if it was like a scrapped texture or something in the map that we haven't found? (also my friend is Seven :P)
when I create things! I do it in a way that gives me several possibilities of use
when I created Inno! it was a very simple concept actually, it was just to be a mascot for an event that took place a long time ago at this mall. As if she were a poster girl!
So I created several "skins" with different expressions to test my events
Time passed, I used an AI to make the Shopping song, and because the vocals were female, my friends associated it with her, so I made it cannon in a way
Maybe in the future, I will use these different expressions, but nothing confirmed yet
@@PnkBl4ck ah shucks so its unused as of now? me and my buddy spent hours trying to trigger it 😭
I was waiting for voidmall or Pinkplace since i completed this map many times when gm_voidplaces comes out, always checking updates on your workshop. And now waiting for a new map again. I hope it's not the last time we saw Inno. I can't get rid of that tune out of my head now.
Is there anyway to make the same song in SUNO, but with my own lyrics? (I wanna make a render about voidmall, but with my own character and it's remix to this song)
Maybe, I don't really know, I've never tried!
the seed only generates that same voice (sometimes some male vocals) but mostly Inno's Voice
Try to see what you can do:
app.suno.ai/song/b2dc508f-d676-453d-a913-33edb4169fa7/
Just click on the three dots below the photo of the song, and in the options you will see "Continue From This Clip"
@@PnkBl4ck It actually works, and chorus so perfect fits with any other verse you put over it.
I hope this all could get a non-AI revision someday, but, i know that would be expensive... also, I get the sense that Inno doesn't want to be alone, and is kinda just struggling with abandonment issues as the cute mascot of an empty dead mall...
I just hope her music can be someday redone with that manual attention to detail you've given the map instead of just AI prompted stuff :
I'd fund a non-AI revision.
I understand *why* the use of generative AI was used, and I understand that most of the entertainment of this map comes mostly from the way it is made- the actual map itself is a wonderful little thing and had me curious and inquisitive of EVERYTHING the entire way through- grabbing my attention in a way it had not done before.
I was a little disheartened to learn that this song wasn't actually made by anyone except AI. And I guess I get it. Making a song would take time, effort and maybe even skills the mapper doesn't have. So you'd need to kind of 'cut corners' where you could, to represent the idea you have in your head.
But I'd probably chuck money towards their Patreon for a bit if they change it up, allowing actual talent- be it commissioned by some random person on fiverr or made by someone just as passionate about the map. I think it'd be worth it. Who knows- voidplaces could have it's own team, music and all. Though that boils down to the creator's choice.
Depending on P'nk's decision, it might be me redoing the song without AI. Which I'm down with 😊
@@TheThunderGhost Glad to hear a hopeful tidbit!
@@AmbrosiaPoly-yolkEgg For sure! And I actually got his blessing. So it is now me redoing it without AI! :D (It's also probably going to be my sister doing Inno's vocals.) The instrumental is currently in the works, but the vocals is a bit in the air, at the moment.
Could we get lyrics for this?
Please post a song where she says something similar to ""me day she paaaaass".
This clip plays when the player starts walking down the central corridor from the main hall.
parabéns, desde que joguei seu mapa partes da música tocam na minha cabeça em loop KKKKKKKK bom trabalho 💪
Bruh this map had a sweet sour flavor
Something was terribly wrong, yet I felt bad cause of this chick's apparent sadness for my leave
""The key is in the bathroom"" What the fuck!? Is she directly speaking to the player?
@@owlsmol 👀👀
lmao u gotta play the map
@@funto5678 I did. I could barely hear the singing tho.
Whats her name? And do you have art from her posted somewhere? Thanks
I just wanted to ask:
Is Oldspaces & Voidspaces connected to the newer maps?
Or are they just separate projects?
Really want to get neck deep in "The Lore"-
oldspaces and voidspaces take place in the same universe. perhaps at a time when the anomaly was not so present. but in fact, it was beginning. in the trailer for gm_voidspaces, before the fast music starts, you can notice a hint of the new sun
Ooooh!
Nice.
I would love to try singing it myself, is there a set of lyrics somewhere, please?
I need a traduction for portuguese, i'm from brazil and I love it so much. I can't stop play
Hello p'nk black! I hope you can read this message :P
I'm starting to make a story inspired by your map gm_voidplaces, I just wanted to know if there is no problem in making it, the truth is I love the aesthetics and content of the map, and I want to express it through a story. I hope you understand!
no problem, I love seeing what you do
my only request is that you maintain the mystery of the sun, and take into consideration the aesthetics of liminal spaces!
Other than that, go crazy, expand as much as possible
@@PnkBl4ck Wow, thank you very much!
The Librarian sent me
lol
Hi!! Big fan of your maps AND this song; however given it's AI generated, I want to ask. Do you ever plan, or hope to, get this remade as an *actual* song? No hate or anything, I'm just curious!!! :) Excited for future maps from you :D !!!
Certainly, Inno's songs were an experiment that worked.
I believe in inspiration and human works. For me, AI serves to support the creative mind (construction of ideas, etc...)
being a normal guy, whose only skills are level design, and creating textures... learning more skills is somewhat complicated. Not impossible, but complicated.
I really admire solo devs who can do a little bit of everything.
Inno was a happy accident, in my view! I really thought people wouldn't like the idea, especially seeing that the songs are made by an AI... no matter how much I write them, the biggest work (in the songs) still comes from the AI.
And yes, eventually I would love to do the original version of these songs
Thank you for your comment, I hope I answered
@TheGorepill
I actually got P'nk's blessing, and it's now officially me redoing the song without AI. :) It will definitely take a bit, but I'm committed, and I hope ya'll will like the new version when it gets completed. 🩷
Muita criatividade e dedicação ! Parabéns e sucesso!!! 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
"She is in the bathroom? Oh you want to leave that bad go ahead" it's like the NextBot know where you are and see you leaving your hidding spot and starting the pursuit.
"Go away, leave me alone" part give me the impression of someone running away of a NextBot in panic.
"You standing here staring at the door, afraid to take a step at the next door" it's the feeling of entering a place the NextBot may be wandering.
"The key is in the bathroom" Inno is letting the player leave. She's giving them the key (it's in the bathroom lmao)
"Go away, leave me alone" not entirely sure what this part is meaning, it might be Inno talking to you, might be Inno talking to herself referring about the new sun, we don't really know
"When you're standing here, staring at the door
Afraid to take the step and explore
Don't let fear hold you back from the unknown
There's a world out there, just waiting to be shown"
i *THINK* refers to the condition of most people in-universe with the doors materializing in their homes; she's referring to the fact that the authorities are saying not to go in because it's yknow, non-Euclidean temporal anomalies etc etc but she's referring to how it's an entirely new world that you'd never get to experience or something idk man
Whay do we even have record companies, when gmod mappers are able to make music like THIS?! Proves how unnecessary the mainstream industry is.
It was AI, not really made by the map maker. Though the mainstream industry sucks anyways and kind of serves to the recycle the same garbage over and over.
@@Asupreme Yep.
Hey, am I able to get an explanation about the line where she talks about her trapped brother or friend she tried to rescue? it's been eating away at me lol.
Where did she even talk about her trapped brother/friend?
@@lukmort well it was after I entered a set of doors not accessible through voidmall normally located in the pool area. If you no clip around you'll see white hallways that lead to poolrooms. Don't go in but instead follow them to a tubular corridor and even further back and then walk through it normally.
Genre of music?
If you want to generate something like this, try these tags: lyrical electro, dreamy, female singer.
P!nk, am I right?
@@kaktyc808 Oddly enough, this was generated with "Dark Aggressive synthwave". I'm not even kidding
I have a question? Is the map gm_voidspaces related to gm_voidplaces despite the different artstyle that this map uses?
In fact, there is a connection! oldspaces and voidspaces, it's basically a few days before the anomalies start to get stronger... if you watch the voidspaces trailer, there's a part where a pink light starts to take over the scene... it's the beginning
The trailer;
