that actually makes a bunch of sense. The idea that there's something big enough in space (besides Black Holes) to eat stars is terrifying , especially since there are many stars which are trillions of times bigger than ours

There is a manga about that from Junji Itou, "Hellstar Remina" IIRC

You "like to imagine"? Sheesh, and there's me, who doesn't want to think about anything like it at all. Cause, you know, it's effing terrifying.

Uhh umm yeahh dude stars aren't sentient and going next to other stars to "hang out" and "be best buds forever"

@@Vantablack000 At least we know its not gonna be targetting earth, with big juicy and colourful stars hanging around

ima try it

Finished this recently as well (couple years ago), I think he'd enjoy it

for a moment i thought the games name was The Final Solution and i was like "uh oh"

@@SetariM that’s not recently

@@dhr7649 Same "the game where you're a train conductor and your goal is not to get indicted for assisting crimes against humanity"

You know something is wrong when a HIGH PICT SOUND COMING TO YOU AT A SPEED OF TRAIN

It’s the fact they aren’t horror games they are terror games

@@williamjohnson740 fitting name

They're a mix of cosmic horror and what I am going to call dead sky

@116H this one also includes false hope

The isolation is really a cool feeling for me. It reminds me of movies like Moon, where there's just one character basically totally alone. It's a DIFFERENT kind of isolation than say Alien Isolation, because in that you're actively being hunted by something you know about - we all know about the aliens capabilities and what it looks like, but in stuff like this it doesn't give you that clear picture of what exactly it is that we are supposed to be afraid of - i think that creates the cosmic horror dissonance that authors like HP Lovecraft rely on. The lack of description or simply, the overwhelmingly inability to describe it at all, is existentially terrifying.

Or vehicle horror

or Deprivation Discovery, similar to deprivation chambers that block out senses.

@@neilhearth3536 yeah that‘s good to

What about "solitary horror" as well?

“Grim-dark Geographer”

Too many

I lost count

His hospital bill is off the charts.

I'm surprised he is still alive with the amount of heart attacks he has.

At least one

Sounds like my ex paying people to go through my stuff when at work. He must really miss this bootay. 🤓👍

@@someoneout-there2165 I'm pretty sure that happened dude. Now go back to your dream where your ex misses you

It’s a very heart warming game, pretty chill and laid back, definitely play it

>heart warming >chill and laid back certainly, yes great dating sim

@@mickthick6170 sets fire, cold water, smoochy fish. Id say it checks out

Literally one of the best made games ever

@@Captain_Yata atmosphere on point

Yeah

Explorer Horror has a better ring to it.

I remember reading a thread of nearly blind/impared vision gamers back in the PS2-era of the internet. They were talking about certain games they liked due to good audio design and bright colors. (in my memory, I mostly remember them talking about Klax. Because each piece made a separate/unique sound as it fell. They also really liked Pokemon because there was a bump noise that told them they hit a wall) Be kinda cool if these Radar Horror games could drop the visual entirely. Give us audio only horror. One step closer to the sensor deprivation horror nightmare of my dreams.

More like Cosmic Horror exploration

I've been a long time viewer of this channel and this is the first time one of my comments on any of the videos has ever gotten a heart I'm very grateful and I am very happy thank you igp for being a generous man

I like this term for it, you have my vote

anomalous navigation, because your navigating in an area or scenario that can be classified as an anomaly. Space without stars and a giant star eating monster, ya thats an anomaly. A planet full of blood with i giant fish chasing you is an anomaly. Then the navigation is from having your senses impaired in some way forcing you to have a handicapped navigation. So in short your navigating a place and scenario that deviates from the normal or whats expected.

Yeah

@@phantomgaming9145 anomalous navigation also sounds like a good title for a game lol

Now that's a genre name lol

That is what I thought when I saw the video.

Kinda but there you only explore an ocean not space itself

I don't know much about the game but I believe you explore an ocean planet, meaning you're no longer in space when you place the game.

Technically, every video game is in space

This! Scavenger SV- 4 is an amazingly underrated game

@@AHoardyBoi seconded, I wish to watch more let plays of the game but their are not many out there.

I tend to enjoy the first few hours to a day of comments, after that the mean people show up haha

that sounds like barotrauma, its a underwater game set under europa, which has no sunlight so you have to use sonar, but sonar may also attract "unwanted visitors"

*nods in thalassophobia *

Iron Lung isnt that scary It’s just something chasing you Only scare i got was when you see its eye

@@okipullup5304 the whole concept is terrifying and in my 1st experience it was creepier than I thought

@@the_ecips9692 when you talking about exploring on ocean of blood on an alien moon its a whole different story

If it means anything, but I do hope it gives them some motivation and encouragement.

(it's an act for views)

@@divinepumpkin it doesn’t matter I still love his videos

he does super over the top unbelievable "aaah i'm so scared!!!"

@@Transformers2Fan1 that doesn’t mean anything

@@YourYoungerSister he's clickbait and his reviews are garbage

the chance of us being alone in the universe is extremely small

lol

damn im happy that there is no snow in my country

No issues in my area, thanks for asking though!

snow storm is super bad by me I couldn't even leave to go to my moms for Christmas

Luckily power didn’t go out, but internet did.

maybe its in the same universe

@@EXSF-1 there no "quiet rapture" lore on it

@@baconsoldier3876 i said maybe

@@baconsoldier3876nope it’s the same universe you don’t get it

**spats out milk** EXCUSE ME WHAT

@@justinkianaalfredo6843 yeah it said so at the end, this was an assignment for the guy's game design class

Still got the icon sitting on my desktop and still too terrified to play it myself. I'm also waiting for IGP to continue the series xD I really like this game.

Fun fact, the sound that is produced when the star turned into the black hole was a real black hole sound. The sound was turned to a frequency that we can hear; and was then tuned again by the person who made the game

My suspension has been disbelieved

Maybe it uses eletromagnetic waves or some type of particle beaming

Good question.

Oh shit you're right

good point

Artistic liberty, lol Not so fun fact though; astronomers use a technique called sonification- where data is converted into sound to allow it to be interpreted. So while they don't hear the sound directly, they can use things like a Geiger counter to measure radiation levels and portray the results has audio. Have you listened to the video about what a black hole sounds like? It's so creepy but so cool. They kind of mention that 'no sound in space' is a misconception. There's a lot of pressure and hot gas near celestial bodies, which means sound waves can reverberate, but not indefinitely, if I'm understanding it correctly. But seriously, don't take my word for it, lol. I only took 2 astrophysics classes and my brain is a potato

Fr I thought I misheard igp when he said that he can use sonar

who are you people

I mean, the character died (or worse) so that's a pretty hard yes by default lol

Love this name the most out of all suggestions, it's intuitive

Actually, it takes place in a blood ocean within a moon.

@@Sans_the_skeleton_real in... space

@@onsydeaura22 but it's in water and on a planet...

Takes place on a moon with a blood ocean but I believe the backstory for both games is similar. Both take place in a universe where the stars have disappeared (Though Iron Lung's universe also is missing inhabitable planets as well) and both task the protagonist with exploring somewhere unknown for information

On a moon

Desperation?

@@randomcanadian6298 yep, in a situation like that any potential signs of a star, no matter how improbable it would be would need to be investigated

They don't know why the stars disappeared, it's not like they died of old age, your star age logic makes no sense

@@absolutehuman951 actually... stars do die of old age. thats why supernovas and black holes occur!

i dont think it has anything to do with star lifetimes when every single one of them has disappeared....
