There's something so absurd and fun about seeing a defunct retail chain rendered in Unity and staffed by catgirls, or getting all Edward Hopper solo at a diner chain transplanted to space. These are some really sick maps to VRChat in. Not sure what that's about, but I find it to be in poor taste, and Waffle House should be a classy establishment. Waffle House on the Moon rocks, though I'm a little wary of the static model of a blindfolded anime lady chained up in the back of the restaurant next to some rolls of bills and a knife⁠. I play a game by myself, which is only one step above riding a seesaw by yourself, then do the only thing that feels right: run to the edge of the map and jump off, teleporting back to the starting point.

I decide to ignore the neat little internet-connected jukebox and instead go around back where someone's implemented a little pool minigame. I spy my sad, default, Minecraft Steve-ass avatar in the mirror and can't help but feel a bit of shame. With no one else around, I take a seat in one of the booths and down a cup of coffee (I pick up the cup and hold it over my head so that the liquid spills down my face). It is, indeed, a Waffle House on the Moon, and it is wonderful. As much as I want to see the Hell Kmart, I can't say no to the Waffle House on the Moon. They lead to the other Kmart locations, but also a creation by another group on Discord: the Waffle House on the Moon. What really catches my eye is a selection of portals out front. It's got even more solid decorating and texture work, as well as authentic-sounding loudspeaker announcements punctuating some fun Christmas in July music. Next up I load into the original Kmart location. This one's got AKs, Uzis, rocket launchers, and a couple of gatling guns.īefore leaving, I approach Lucario and the anime waif to ask them why they came to VRChat Kmart.

You've got a food court featuring the hands-down best national chain pizza place, Little Caesars, an extensive warehouse area and offices in the back, clothing and grocery sections, and a fantastic parody of the gun counters you see at rural and suburban American department stores. I poke around some more⁠, tickled by every new detail. There's hits like Mass Effect 2 and Pokémon Pearl, but the standout is the Playstation Move light gun ' Full Deployment' edition of SOCOM 4⁠ on the shelf-some pure, distilled late aughts gaming obscura right there. I'm a big fan of the videogame section, which goes all-in on late 2000s console kitsch. I wander around for a bit, soaking up the ambience.
