@@WeenusMcMenace-dm6ephonestly, some jumpscares CAN be a good way to release all built up tension, remember squirrel stapler? it only has one real jumpscare. and personally, i'm very scared of jumpscares for some reason, prob cause i don't play many horror games, and if i knew that a game had no jumpscares.. the game becomes safe for me. there's a reason jumpscares were made into existence, it's to release all tension the game has built up through atmosphere. however, if you do jumpscares left and right, most horror game players already know that they become annoying rather than scary, which is why many indie games prefer to place their jumpscares at the end.

@@mishagaming1075Jumpscares can work but like any other tool you gotta know how to use it first. So many people feel wasted bc up until that tension was released, the dread and what was causing it was all up to interpretation and kept them on their guard. Putting up a spooky shaking jpeg right after is like suddenly popping a balloon; It startles you if you were caught off guard but after that, tension goes right back down to zero. Makes the whole thing feel like a joke more than anything. A lot of games like this would probably fare better if they focused more on unsettling players rather than trying to startle them.

There is something about the jumpscares where something approaches the camera from a distance extremely fast. Especially if it’s accompanied with the sound of unnaturally fast footsteps. It truly gives me the jitters just thinking about it, especially the idea of experiencing something like that first hand.

@thespacedinos4037 Ай бұрын

I agree totally. Would’ve been scary af to see something appear on the horizon when the 2250 MI reading came up, and have it slowly get brighter and closer/higher in the sky as the distance ticked down, although the thing being 2250 MI away would make it completely invisible unless it was extremely reflective/bright.

Considering what Manly said about the developer having made other horror games in the past (including the "Food for Pigs" series and "Fearlift"), but having not made any in "a very long time" and instead started making other types of games, maybe that has something to do with it? Perhaps the "junior's first jumpscare" is the result of the developer trying to get back into making horror games again. After all, Manly himself did say that this is one of this dev's better games (in general).

Theres no atmosphere, so there should be no light scattering, so there should be no diffused shadows.

@WatcherLater Ай бұрын

@@Conkel The astronauts said that it was almost impossible to see the stars, but once they passed into the shadow of the moon, they could see the stars so clearly that it was hard to even make out the constellations. This is probably because the intense light would cause your eyes to adjust to be able to see what's on the ground, similar to how the photos from the moon are a very small amount of exposure to allow you to see the surface, instead of being a blinding haze of white light accompanied by a few stars in the sky--try staring into a flashlight and then running outside during nighttime. Simply, you won't see a single star if your eyes are adjusted to daylight conditions. The only way an astronaut(or anyone on the moon) could see stars would be if they were inside of a shadow, or if they laid on the ground for a while, at which point they would slowly be able to see stars, only to be blinded just by looking at their surroundings, similar to how you have a hard time looking at the lights if you stumble out of bed.

Music or some kinda eerie sound starts playing quietly at first but gets louder as it gets closer, and then the game ends when the face catches you rather than a fakeout followed by a cheap jumpscare. Might not make you jump as much, but it'll definitely give ya goosebumps.

This is a really good condensed recipe for indie horror game intended for spooktubers. Really just slams all the tropes into their simplest forms without wasting too much time. It turns the _tedious busywork tasks with no real lose condition while ignoring obvious red-flags until final bad-end jumpscare_ into: 1. Walk in straight line. 2. Push button. 3. Timer to unavoidable loud noise jumpscare-end. 4. Loud noise PNG Jumpscare-end. The only thing the video didn't tell us is if it closes the game automatically at the end, which would have just been icing on top.

This was discovered during the Apollo 17 mission in December 1972, which was the last manned mission to The Moon. I also learned that the hardest part about making the moon rover vehicles was assembling the chairs due to their weight. The guys designing the vehicles were on a break sitting in lawn chairs when 1 of them basically said "Let's just slap 2 lawn chairs on the vehicle," & it worked since that's what they used on the vehicles for the next few Moon missions.

I think my opinion isn't gonna be too far off from a lot of other comments. The atmosphere of this was fantastic and the slow build up of tension was very well done, all the way up until the jump scare. It really just went contrary to the entire mood of everything up to that point? Left me wondering if it was an intentional joke/subversion of expectations or if it was actually supposed to be scary, because if it was then there were probably better ways to handle it. In Game Design and storytelling in general it's important that if you set something up, then you need to pay it off, or else you leave the audience feeling disappointed and this is kind of a classic example of wasted potential. The pay off winds up feeling like it wasn't worth the set up. We already had eerie stuff coming from over the horizon which was where a lot of the 'I keep seeing things' was coming from, so doing something with that would have been great. I also think a good way to handle it would have been to set the timer up to go faster and faster up until a point where it cuts off, leaving the player in suspense as you make the last ditch run to the ship to escape, the lack of actually showing anything would let the player's imagination run wild with things way worse than whatever the thing actually is, and it still gives a sense of pay off since you the player feel as if you've barely managed to scrape by and escape. Horror games and especially indy ones have been over reliant on jump scares for a while, relying on that startle factor rather than a more satisfying and lingering sense of horror so it's kind of disappointing to see something come so close to actually pulling it off only to fumble it at the last moment. Reminds me of that other game Manly played a while ago where you were "alone" on a space station and hearing far off noises that set up a fantastic sense of tension and anxiety, only for it to end with a lackluster chase scene with a like zombie space suit man or something?

do you guys think Manly will ever hit a second puberty and his voice will get twice as deep or is that just me?

the atmosphere was very well done. even the spooky noise when zooming in was a nice touch. my guess is they didnt know how to end it so they just put a jumpscare

@AjianAja Ай бұрын

The fact that you weren't making a perfectly straight b-line towards the objectives stressed me out more than the jumpscares 😂

I love MBH because he plays so many different games, plus he's chill. Like sometimes, he'll play a giant franchise, but then other times he'll play a nice, niche horror game. His commentary is amazing, no screaming, some funny jokes, chill voice.

@pablot-r9402 Ай бұрын

They need to do a scary game based on hearing tests / examinations. If find those a little creepy because usually you are put in a separate room from the exam host, and you can only hear the host administering the test through your headset, which their voice has that "distant" / "you and I are separated" radio comms voice. Then there's the eerie part, listening for those faint low and high tones, similar to the movie Close Encounters where the characters hear that famous alien-communication chime in their heads. I figure a game based on hearing exams could have the noises get weirder, the exam host say weird things / have sudden unexplained voice distortions, or suddenly start telling you things about you that only you would know about yourself, etc. The game could go anyplace for that point. I recently did a hearing exam where you have to listen for phrases and repeat them, and the voice sounded slightly computerized, and I found that a little off-putting, especially when the phrase went from faint to louder.

I've noticed most people don't walk in a straight line, they tend to follow the curves of the 'valley'/'hill' they're walking on while looking around followed by a 'diagonal' to head towards the radar station instead of off to the right like they were going. Makes the final switch to head towards the supposed lander location easier because they have little idea where it actually is.

@@matterking1 Manly works out? If yes, it doesn't matter much what exactly he is working out, as it all leads to increase of testosterone in the body and that's the main reason for the voice getting deeper.

@joxii__ Ай бұрын

Every time he says "empty, like my soul", Manly's voice gets ever so slightly deeper. In a few years he will reach unfathomable vocal depths that he will only be able to communicate infrasonically and the sole surviving viewers of his will be nothing but whales.

Many people react badly because of the screamer at the end, but for some reason I jumped from it. And I'm rarely scared of horror at all. I think this game made the screamer even better, because based on everything that happened before, it seems like the ending will be unusual. And you get a cheap screamer. This is exactly what a screamer should do, be unexpected. So I'll make a genius move, and I'll say that I liked the game. Even the screamer
