The Glitched Purgatory is an area accessible from interacting with a glitched NPC in Parking Zone.
Features
The area is distinct in its completely random, constantly changing appearance, with tiles of different designs clashing together. Every so often, the map's appearance will switch back to the Parking Zone briefly. Several patterns can be made out on the floor, such as a shining sun, a double helix, and a branching tree. Scattered around the area are glitched textures, and equipping the Glasses effect will reveal the moving ones as blinking eyes.
Navigating the area is also made difficult as there are random points on the map that will teleport the player if they touch them. Several points scattered throughout the map will bring you to white rooms filled with speedy Chasers that will not do anything to the player save for a lone Shadow Lady that will bring you to an isolated part of the Alazan Domain if caught. There are a few invisible points that will bring you back to the main map.
Directions
- The Nexus → Rock World → Theatre World → Hat World → Alazan Domain → Parking Zone → Glitched Purgatory
If the connection from Urotsuki's Dream Apartments to Parking Zone is active:
- The Nexus → Urotsuki's Dream Apartments → Parking Zone → Glitched Purgatory
Trivia
- This area is possibly inspired by LSD: Dream Emulator, due to its trippy and nonsensical visuals. Several devs have stated that they are fans of this game.
- Before version 0.122c, obtaining Menu Theme 52 would make this area accessible from a set of tiles in Glitch Hell that form a "(^□^)". Fittingly, this emoticon is also this area's original name.
- The set of tiles that form the aforementioned emoticon in Himalayan Salt Shoal will sometimes have a glitched tile near it that will send you here.
- Sometimes the player can get trapped on a tile while the area is changing, though eventually they may be freed.
