Kaleidoscope World is a world accessible through the sparkling door in the 3D Underworld.

Annotated map of Kaleidoscope World.

Features

Kaleidoscope World is a flashy, colorful world highly reminiscent of Neon World from Yume Nikki with colorful, animated walls depicting various abstract shapes and patterns. Small, flashing images can be found on the floors here, including various faces and triangles, arranged in abstract shapes.

It is populated heavily by various wandering NPCs, including penguins, floating donuts, 3D shapes, and green snake heads. Many of these NPCs have special interactions, such as the green snake heads hollering and the 3D shapes turning into white and red cats or pine trees upon interaction. Most of the NPCs sometimes play an altered sound on the first interaction with them.

Upon entering the world from the 3D Underworld, Urotsuki will enter from a colorful set of double doors resembling the doors in the Glitched Butterfly Sector, surrounded by NPCs and triangular tiles forming arrow and hexagon shapes. West of the entrance is a wandering NPC that resembles the eyes in Virtual City's Karaoke Lounge. Only if you went through the Home Within Nowhere route, it will be wearing a black top hat with a blue band. Interacting with it will equip the top hat. Southwest of the entrance is a door in one of the walls which leads to a small lounge room with a vending machine, a few spinning NPCs, and a moat with flowing red liquid. Slightly northeast of the entrance is another door that leads to one of the colorful NPCs gnawing on one of the donut-shaped NPCs from the world, with two other corpses of the same kind of NPC nearby. Southeast of the entrance is an open doorway in one of the walls, leading to the Glowing Tree Path.

Directly north of the entrance is a room with a large red creature with a single eye and a flower sprouting from it. Using the Chainsaw effect on the creature's eye, leaving the room, and then reentering will reveal it has disappeared and granted access to a ladder it was blocking. Going down the ladder will very quickly change the scenery to an underground tunnel area, which is blocked by Sierpiński triangle structures.

Trivia

• A few of the NPCs here, namely the penguins and the red-and-white cat and tree NPCs, were designed by Nyoro, an artist also has contributed to Yume 2kki with wallpapers and even the hats found throughout qxy's sector.
• One of the rotating shapes resembles the streetlights in the Glowing Tree Path, Marshmallow Shallows, and Critter Village.
