Oh, don't worry, you didn't startle me too much. I'm just super flattered that you decided to take the time to pay my author page a little visit…so yeah, thanks!
Anyhoo, I'm Spoofyboofy! But you can also call me Spoofy, Boofy, or Spiffy. I'm a 23-year-old Canadian who loves hiking, tea, doodling, board games, card games, and chemistry! I also go by she/her as well.
I initially joined this site in April 2021 to write stuff in hopes that other people may enjoy it. However, I quickly became much more involved once I joined the Backrooms Discord Server where I spend my time critiquing, green-lighting, discussing ideas, and hosting Jackbox games! I'd highly recommend joining in on the fun if you're up for it!
Of course, despite all that I still have time to write! Check out some of my works (and ideas for future works):
Level 168 - "No Peeking!"
My very first Level and entry in this Wiki! Also making this Level was the main reason why I decided to join Wikidot in the first place. Much of the Levels I have as entrances and exits to Level 168 were sources of inspiration with regards to writing this entry. Fun Fact: I was going to stick with "Lucy" as the name of the hide-and-seek fanatic but I couldn't help but give in to the cheeky name of "Heidi". Sorry! I'm a sucker for bad jokes and puns!
Entity 113 - "The Herberts"
The Herberts are currently my HIGHEST rated entry…a fact that I am both proud of and a little confused by. I came up with the idea of "annoying tacky tourists that are inept with maps…or any form of navigation, really" around 3 AM one night with an overtired brain. A good 30 minutes later and then BAM, Herberts began to take over everyone's hearts despite being the entry I spent the LEAST amount of time on, haha…
Tale - "Tucker's Lullaby"
Why was this posted before Tucker you may ask? Well, for one, I wanted to experiment with creating and composing a little song…and two, I wanted to post it for a contest entry. Still, I am very happy with how it turned out and so were some other people apparently!
Tale - "Enoch Roddingham's Proposal"
Spoofyboofy's brain: Hehe what if funny bird enthusiast man spent fifty years trying to catch and study Jerry only to be denied by Jerry's followers?
In all seriousness, I hope to make more tales involving Enoch and perhaps a collab or two with a fellow favourite author of mine!
Joke Level - "Mild Hell"
Imagine "mild hell", a habitable place where everything is irritating enough to make it completely uninhabitable. Yeah, that's basically this Level in a nutshell.
Level 900 - "Resting Grounds"
Going into mattress stores always gave me a nostalgic feeling growing up…don't exactly know why but hey! It inspired me to make this Level! At first I was going to have this place devoid of any entities but then I thought of a really neat design and idea for an entity who can sing and…yeah, this is the result of all that.
(WIP) Level 490 - "Perpetual Pachinko"
(WIP) Entity 122 - "Tucker"
(WIP) Joke Tale - "da bakroomz"
(WIP) Object 27 - "Viewmasters"
…and more!
FAN ART <3
A lovely cover of Tucker's Lullaby by Hylius! Proud to say that this is the first Backrooms-related fanart that I have ever received! I would definitely choose Hylius as Tucker's canonical voice…if Tucker could actually speak canonically, that is.
Level 168 - "No Peeking" TikTok
A TikTok by Natedagreat563 of my first written entry on this Wiki: Level 168 - "No Peeking!" How this lad managed to summarize Level 168 so concisely will always be a mystery to me…in any case be sure to like and follow him on TikTok!

Not satisfied yet, huh? Well don't you worry, I just so happen to have a list of some of my favourite authors for you to check out:
SnomWriting - best known for creating "Blanche", a fan favourite entity (and…Level?) However, you can't forget the alluring Level 797 and my personal favourite: Level 714 - The Funkiest Level in the Backrooms! Snom tends to write in a wholesome and mysterious manner which makes for quite an enjoyable read.
DrBobtail - also known as "Deer", the creator of "Berry" and his many "Visionaries"! My favourite Level of is undoubtedly the "viberooms". What can I say? I enjoy good vibes and that Level is no exception! Deer has a knack for writing entities as well as writing with various styles.
CutTheBirch - the creator of my current all-time favourite entity, the "Athenian Ducks". This entry has the perfect amount of humour and horror for me, it's great and you should go read it! Birch has a very technical and detail-oriented writing style. They are also incredibly tech-savvy and helpful!
YellowISlol - boy am I a sucker for Joke entries! Yellow is responsible for two of my favourites: "Joke Level XXX" and "Joke Entity XX"…they never fail to give me a good chuckle! However, much of Yellow's work tends to be quite lore-heavy and lengthy which is perfect for those of you itching for a good story.
TrailmixNCoco does not match any existing user name - probably one of the more underrated authors on this site. Trailmix rewrote one of my favourite objects, the ""Wall Masks"…I mean, of course, I would like that entry, I have a handsome-looking plague doctor mask on after all! Trailmix's writing usually involves lots of variety and interconnectedness to their other works.
You're still here? Well, I'm glad you chose to stay this long! It really means a lot to me…so much so that I may as well share some trade secrets of mine! Eh, if you call writing tips and tricks a trade secret, that is.
- When critiquing a writer I always tell them to read what they've written out loud. I do this for my own work as well and I'd be willing to bet you'd be surprised at the number of things you missed!
- To back up my "read out loud" tip, pay attention to your breathing and reading speed. Chances are if you're rushing at the end of a sentence or end up gasping for air…you probably have a run-on sentence that needs to be cut down pronto!
- Be consistent! If you decide to capitalize the word "Level" for the first half of your page but then have every other instance of "level" in lowercase…it's going to throw your reader off. And worse yet…me!
- The "Enter" key on your keyboard is a beautiful thing. Please use it somewhat often to break up massive walls of text into lovely paragraphs. (ah…my poor eyes…)
- Woah! Did you see a cool thing an author did in one of their entries and you really, really want to find out how they did it? Scroll down to the bottom of the page and select "+ Options" then select "Page Source". BOOM. There's how they did the thing! Just don't plagiarize, pretty please.
- Worried that your totally original and awesome idea may have already been done by someone else? (Great minds think alike, after all!) Use this Wiki's search bar to search up some keywords that may match with what you plan on writing.
- Still stuck on something despite looking at every guide you could find? Ask your fellow site members! Most of us would be more than happy to help you out! Including me! ^_^
Huh?
…
You're STILL here?
Ah, okay, okay, for sticking around this long you deserve to see something
A JACKBOX MEMORY ALBUM!
All of these screenshots were from past sessions that I have hosted on the Backrooms Tech Support Discord. The event itself has seemed to earn me the title of "The Jackbox Qween" (thank you gasterBlaster1 does not match any existing user name) and a whole bunch of pings asking "when the next game night is going to be?".
Finally, a COLOSSAL thank you to CutTheBirch for helping my smooth brain figure out a few page theme related issues I had while making this…particularly the banner logo that I wanted moved to the left! Techno wizard, right there.
Welp. That's all I have for now. Thank you so much for swinging by, I truly appreciate it! Till next time!
