  • Seemingly out of nowhere comes a strange video game that takes place in the RLM studio. Normally we don't give attention to weirdos that take this much effort making something so utterly creepy, but this game is just so impressive, Rich and Mike had to play it and see what all the fuss was about.
    The game is a free download. And before you ask, no we didn't pay anyone to make this for us. Nor were we paid to promote it.

      Unfortunately Real Life is leagues behind Unreal Engine 5's Lumen and Nanite. The LOD on the Rich character mesh was awful and had, like, three polygons at a draw distance of a meter. We need to see those grizzly 8k face textures with dynamic lighting.

    So, I saw this and downloaded the game to check it out. Turns out you can use the Space Cop Gun to shoot the lock off of a door and go outside. The only interactable object you can find outside (which is portrayed as a snowy, creepy wasteland, much like Milwaukee IRL) is Plinkett's Night Court tape. You can take that tape to the Plinkett House set and interact with the TV to get a Thank You message from the Dev. Suddenly turned this whole thing from kind of weird to pretty wholesome!

And here we have some dedicated fan who spent who knows how long to make a celebration of what RLM has done and what they mean to them.

    this is genuinely such a well made game... the textures, the reflection of light off of the VHS', the in-depth references, every single detail is absolutely mind blowing!! Congrats for making such a phenomenal piece of art! it was so much fun to watch them play 🖤

      You can see his amazement at simple things like physics interactions. I do hope there is a 2.0 of this game when you can shoot the letters and the aliens from space cop show up when you get the gun.
