Mr. Baldimore's 3D Schoolhouse [DEMO]
Did you know that Baldi's Basics is actually a remake of a long-forgotten ZX Spectrum game?
Back in the late 1980s, a mysterious educational game was developed for the ZX Spectrum by a unknown dev. It was a bizarre experiment that combined math drills with a surreal and unsettling atmosphere. The game, known simply as Mr. Baldimore's 3D Schoolhouse, was never officially released and only circulated in bootleg copies before being lost to time... Until now:
Through a lucky discovery and meticulous restoration, we are excited to share a glimpse into what once was—or rather, what it’s on its way to becoming again. While the full restoration is still a work in progress, this demo serves as an early look at Mr. Baldimore's 3D Schoolhouse, giving players a chance to experience the eerie charm and unsettling atmosphere of this forgotten classic.
This game is not what it seems...
"Oh no! School is out, but your friend has a problem: he left all his books in school! Collect all 7 and win. It won't be an easy though... Mr. Baldimore always challenges his students with tricky questions! Answer correctly and it will be a piece of cake".
Seemingly inspired by pseudo-3D games from the 80s like 3D Monster Maze (1981), 3D Maze of Gold (1982), Quetzalcoatl (1983) or 3-D Monster Chase (1984), Mr. Baldimore's 3D Schoolhouse is a really weird game, with no real educational value to be found.

The game is well made, only if you could, if you can implement a somewhat simple background music, also that I get a little dizzy every time I turn the camera, but I liked your demo of the game, I hope you continue to improve it!😁
Really thanks you for your feedback! I’ll work on those suggestions :D I’m glad you enjoyed the demo, and stay tuned for updates!
