2024 April Fools Event

The 2024 April Fools Event, also known as Retro Mode, was a limited-time event that released on April 1, 2024 and ended on April 10th, 2024. It added the "Retro Mode" sub-floor and voice lines within The Hotel. 
The achievement granted after players completed Retro Mode, "Survive The Drakobloxxers", was intended to become unobtainable on April 7, 2024, but the obtainment period was extended to April 10, 2024."DRAKOBLOXXERS badge is now unobtainable (we gave you guys 2 extra days cause we're so nice)" – DoorsRoblox, X 
After the event's conclusion, Retro Mode was playable via a custom elevator, and was later converted into a modifier that, as of The Mines Update, was temporarily removed from the game for unknown reasons.Q: "DID YOU JUST REMOVED RETRO MODE MODIFIER???" "sorry its temporarily removed" – LightningSplash, X It was re-added to the game with the Content Update. 
==Changes==
===Hotel===
Many events (e.g. opening doors) in the Hotel will now cause random voice lines to play. Elevator Jam is also modified.
As of April 4, 2024, the voice lines have been converted to its own modifier, deducting 20% of the total knobs earned. It's possibly because it’s much easier to hear and survive entities. we found that the voicelines makes the game significantly easier -DOORS - Roblox Horror Game, X (Formerly Twitter)
====Voicelines====
The list of the voicelines is incomplete. Some voicelines need to be listed, or need the sounds added. And some are scrapped and unused and only accessed in the files of the game.

===Retro Mode===
This specific mode can now only be accessed through the Create Elevator option with the SURVIVE THE DRAKOBLOXXERS modifier. The badge for this mode stayed and was obtainable in-game until April 9th, 2024, where it became fully unobtainable. Lightning_Splash said on X that the "Survive The Drakobloxxers" achievement would stay until April 7, 2024, but nicely gave 2 extra days. It can only be accessed with the modifiers which can be unlocked by obtaining the achievement ‘Rock Bottom’ which is unlocked by beating the Hotel. Then, a player can use the modifiers to do Retro Mode. However, the achievement is no longer obtainable.
The solo and duo elevators on the right side of the Lobby have been altered; both the elevators became squad elevators, and now take on the appearance of a gray, study and blocky elevator. The elevator in that mode doesn't have a Pre-Run Shop and the alternate soundtrack of "Elevator Jam" plays on an unanchored radio beside the elevator, rather than inside. 
DOORS' game thumbnail was also changed.
As the title suggests, the "Retro Mode" changes the style and look of the Hotel to resemble the look of Roblox during the years 2006 to 2016. 
In the "Retro Hotel", The Reception has been replaced with a room containing morphs of Seek and Figure that don't function. In the room, there are red walls, a black floor, 2 advertisements and 4 non-functional gear givers. The elevator will remove players faster than it normally does. 
Once a player unlocks Door 1, all players must get to Door 43 in only 600 seconds, or 10 minutes. If not, then the Drakobloxxers will spawn around each player and attack them. Players used to have 700 seconds (11 minutes and 40 seconds) on the day retro mode released, a few hours later it changed and they had 600 seconds (10 minutes) before the Drakobloxxers came, and it is currently unknown why. 
Ambient noises, such as a quacking duck, ninja sounds, or horse neighs, may play when a player navigates the rooms. Two or more players can hide in a closet so this can be a strategy if there is not enough closets to hide in. 
Seek's chase sequences have been replaced with a long, colorful hallway in Door 12 which parodies the game "Be Crushed by a Speeding Wall". Seek itself has been replaced with the so-called "SEEKING WALL!!!!" 
Both of Figure's rooms, The Library and The Electrical Room, have been changed into old-looking obstacle courses styled after classic Roblox obbies. Both rooms vaguely resemble their original appearance, though Figure itself is absent from them and doesn't appear.
The Courtyard now references the popular 2007 game "Happy Home in Robloxia", with its iconic house being found in the field outside the walkway.
The Greenhouse has also been changed, mostly with normal Retro Mode room structures, although, the carpeted floors have been removed and the furniture is bare, resembling some aspects of the original room. 
Door 43 marks the actual and true end of Retro Mode, containing a finish line, a fake spawn point, NPCS dancing, hats, color changing, speed and jump boost pads, mostly found in normal Roblox obbies. 
However, there's more to this mode, since there is also a secret easter egg room that rarely spawns within the room generation. This room will simply contain an easter egg basket, with dialogue above saying "This is easter egg basket!" The walls and floor of that room are coloured purple, indigo, blue and pink. 
Most items have been removed in Retro Mode, with the exceptions of the Lighters, Lockpicks, Vitamins, Flashlights, Glitch Fragments and Room Keys, also being retextured to fit into Retro Mode. Neither does the Guiding Light or the Curious Light appear in Retro Mode, so player's death animation looks a lot like when you play the Hotel with modifiers but slightly glitchier.
===Glitches=== 
*If a player uses a speed boost in Door 43, they can climb over a wall and somehow open the Door 44. If a player happens to successfully make that happen, Glitch will attack them and transport them into the next room. After that, room generation will continue until reaching Door 100.
*Death messages are broken and can show the wrong death cause.
*Players can stay in a locked door without opening it and survive Rush and sometimes even Ambush. This happens because the door lock has a large hitbox that can cover the whole player from Rush's raycasting.
*Players can survive Seek if they are lucky enough.
*Players have a chance to die when spawning in the elevator, however, you will always be instantly revived if you die to this.
*Sometimes when a room with the next door being locked is generated, the key sometimes will not appear inside a drawer or on the floor near the locked door.

</tabber>
== Guaranteed Rooms ==

* Door 21, The Library
* Door 22, Jeff's Shop
* Door 38, The Courtyard
* Door 42, The Electrical Room
* Door 43, The Winners Room
==Strategy==
*The Closet in Retro Mode is harder to open than normal due to the part that only triggers it open is the upper part of the Closet. Making it harder to survive Rush or Ambush. Therefore, it highly recommended to look directly to the upper part of the Closet when you’re trying to hide. This makes the chance of survival higher.
**For mobile players, simply look up and the interaction button should be shown on the right side of the screen, same as normal.
*Eyes can still attack if players are looking at it while hiding. Therefore, it is recommended to look down if Rush or Ambush is presented with Eyes. Furthermore, if Eyes are presented right in front of the closet after Rush or Ambush goes through, simply look the opposite direction where Eyes spawn and get out of the Closet. 
**The same applies to Screech, if it’s present while you are in a closet, try looking in all directions to increase the chance of catching Screech, though it's a bit hard. If Ambush is also present, simply get out of the closet, find Screech, then get in again.
*Unlike in the Hotel and The Backdoor, multiple players can hide in the same Hiding spot.
*(If you are wearing headphones) To avoid Screech and save time, listen to what ear the noise comes out of as this tells you what side Screech is on and gives you a better chance to find it.
== Modifiers==
== Trivia==
*This is the fourth major event in DOORS, with the first one being 2023 April Fools, the 2nd one being The Tower Heroes Event and the 3rd one being THE HUNT and the fifth is The Haunt.
*The music in Retro Mode's Jeff Shop is the song "Happy Home in Robloxia".
*Retro Mode may be a reference to the many DOORS But Bad-esque games, and retro horror games such as Jim's Computer and Residence Massacre.
*Rush’s voice lines don’t play in The Greenhouse, for obvious reasons.
*Many voice lines are cultural references from the internet: 
**Player's line "Knock knock! Who's there? The door!" is a reference to asdfmovie6.
** Player's lines "Papa's got a brand new bag!", "Got a brand new bag!", "Papa's got a brand new item!", "Got a brand new item!", and "Papa's opening a brand new door!" are all a reference to the James Brown song, Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag.
**Player's line "I just found the key, key, key, key!" is a reference to a fanmade song by LankyBox.
**Player's line "Doors, doors, doors all around me" is a reference to a fanmade song by BSlick.
**Player's line "What I want hides behind another door!" is a reference to fanmade song by TryHardNinja.
**Player's line "Rev up those fryers!" is a reference to a scene from SpongeBob SquarePants, where Fred Rachid walks into the Krusty Krab, but soon gets thrown out by Mr. Krabs, the owner of the restaurant.
**Player's voice acting overall seems to be a reference to the worms from Worms:Armageddon, as both Player and the worms share many of the same lines and have the same high pitched voice.
** Seek's voice acting is a reference to Deku from the Japanese anime My Hero Academia.
**Seek’s line “Hey there pookie-bear... you've entered my domain," specifically the phrase “you’ve entered my domain,” is a reference to the Japanese anime Jujutsu Kaisen.
**Figure's voice overall is a reference to the TikTok Roblox Slender trend.
**Timothy's lines "The itsy-bitsy spider!" and "Climbed up the water spout!" are both a reference to the children’s nursery rhyme of the same name.
**Screech's "Oh, hello there!" is likely a reference to how movie character Shrek says the line in the movie of the same name.
**Screech's line "Can you believe it? Jumpscare! Just a second away!" is a reference to the video “Christmas, just a week away!" in which a girl gets excited about Christmas being only a week away despite it not having been December yet.
** Screech's line "Hey, it's me, Seek!" is a reference to the meme “Hey, it’s me, Goku!”
**Eyes' lines suggest an interesting concept that they get hurt when looked at, similar to when a player looks at Eyes and subsequently gets their health damaged
**Halt's monologue towards players may be a reference to Mr Hippo from the Five Nights at Freddy's game Ultimate Custom Night, in which he delivers one of many similarly long monologues after jumpscaring and killing a player.
**One of Dupe's voice lines, "I'm in your head!", may be a reference to one of Mr. Virtual's iconic lines, "I'm already in your head." Possibly due to both Mr. Virtual and Dupe causing victims/players paranoia.
** Retro Mode is now temporarily gone from Doors, as the Modifier has been removed.
**
* The voice actors for all entities are the following:

* Door 43/The final room is a reference to the end of many old Roblox obbies, which usually have free hats for wearing, pads that change your speed or jump power, happy NPCs dancing, color changing, etc.
*If a player manages to find their way outside of Door 43, they will or may be glitched to the secret area (Doors 44-100). When they reach Door 101, the door will fall off into the void, leaving players stuck. 
** To do this, you need to get the fast speed from one of the pads to hop on one of the billboards, then skim your way across the top of the walls to see an outside room. Then, you can jump to the door that's unopened, if you open it at the right time, Glitch will teleport you after a bit to the room, then you can traverse through Doors 44-100. (Please note that the entities you encountered earlier will and can still spawn as you open doors, though DRAKOBLOXXERS are now disabled.)
**Locks never appear in this scenario, and Rush and Ambush seem to appear very rarely past door 50.
*When opened, the Retro Mode doors are physics objects and can be pushed around by a player.
*If a player takes too long to load in the Elevator, then their avatar will be replaced by another avatar with a t-shirt displaying the words "I love DOORS". 
**This also applies to regular runs in The Hotel and the Backdoor.
*Eyes can spawn out-of-bounds in Door 43, behind the left wall of the room. This may be a glitch.
*Retro Mode was the first of the two floors where players could jump, the second being The Mines (but only in doors 140-145 and doors 195-200.)
*Some ambience in Retro Mode may be related to Survive and Kill the Killers in Area 51!!!
*The lights emitting the stars may be related to the Curious Light, as it emits a yellow color.
*The Rainbow Outline around players are a direct reference to the old forcefield in Roblox.
* You can hide from Rush and Ambush behind the doors if you push them enough.
*The design of the Room Key is similar to the key design in DOORS But Bad, a remake of DOORS.
*There is a chance that a glitch will occur in the Elevator, where if you spawn, you will die, but you will get revived if this is the case.
*If you manage to get into the glitch rooms (for example, Door 101), when the DRAKOBLOXXERS arrive, they won’t spawn.
*SEEKING WALL!!!!'s texture is the oldest full body render for Seek in the DOORS Wiki.
*Glitch Fragments (and glitched entities) can spawn in Retro Mode.
