My favorite and most loathed thing about the internet is that you can express and do things that would normally get you beat into a bloody pulp before the web was mainstream.
I know it's awful and super illegal, but Sonic Gather Battle is also really cool and interesting it its twisted way. It's the closest we've ever gotten to a real-life creepypasta.
I definitely feel that; if the creepy stuff was all there was then it'd be awesome (or maybe I'm just a stickler for creepy games / Sonic content) but then the creator had to be a piece of work and made it so the game doxxed your ass over it too
@Mordecrox that whole situation is still funny to me. Joel unknowingly being responsible for a massive search of a game that didnt exist is hilarious. Although fun fact is someone is currently making that game now
The toe hoe segment was masterful, with the first one being a logical, common mispronounciation, the second correct, ensuring the creator knows what they're doing, and then madness begins.
Lol The Ronald McDonald Insanity audio in the background of the Rensenware segment had me rolling on the floor laughing! The Pikachu one gave me a good deal of nostalgia though.
I loved the whole running gag of mispronouncing Touhou during the Rensenware section, but that one bit where you said "2hu" immediately triggered my fight or flight response.
A little correction, the screenshot you showed at 15:07 doesn't say the Ika-Tako creator went to prison for two years because of the virus, it says he got two years for a different virus he created and created Ika-Tako while he was on probation.
Computer viruses have always frightened me ever since I was a kid; randomly browsed DeviantArt once and out of nowhere got attacked by something that started encrypting all my files. Scarred me so much I had nightmares about even worse viruses infecting my computer in similar ways but akin to a creepypasta.
I wonder how many early .exe creepypastas were just written by kids who got a virus and had a nightmare about it. I wouldn’t say most of them, but i would assume it’s somewhat high
I'm just glad the 2hu virus was on 12 and not 15, even if the difference is small. Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom is known for being one of the hardest in the mainline games. Also holy shit joels viruses are here
@@BloxyReimu Well, every 2hu game is hard on Lunatic difficulty. Touhou 15 is just way over the top, even on Normal. It's comparable to games like I Wanna be the Guy in how much you restart (Especially the fight against that bitch ass hell fairy Clownpiece). Although any game could have been chosen for the virus here since they are all difficult.
12's difficulty is OK imo. The game gives you a lot of resources, but getting those UFO's are hard, they lure you to your deaths. Compared to 11 and 15 12 is MILES easier
my favourite thing about the dude who made Sonic Gather Battle is his whole shtick for including the terrible malware in the game was so players didn't "steal sprites". but it wasn't even like he recoloured sprites for a whole "oC, dOnT sTeAl" situation, he just ripped sprites from multiple official sonic games lmao there is no logic behind that programmers eyes xD
@@katsumikougen8351"an elegant form of public shaming" they say as they click off the video to go do nothing of note, barely interacting with the world past offering crap opinions on things they'll never have to deal with
I remember Joel talking about people and their legacy one time then mentioning how his legacy was being the dude who revived the demon hell spawn that is Bonzi Buddy and turning the thing into meme.
Imagine being a guy who integrated malware into your game because you were scared someone was going to copy your stolen asset. The sonic fandom attracts some real characters.
There's a similar story with the Sonic 2 HD project, where the programmer basically held the code hostage until the rest of the team agreed to having anti-tamper measures put into the game, because he didn't want people modding even the first release demo. There was a lot of drama surrounding that one.
@@MadWatcher It's not really a hatred of modding games in general, and it's not really exclusive to the Sonic community. Some people, when they make something and release it to the public, have the attitude of "this is MINE and my VISION, no one else is allowed to change it or use it as a base for their own work because it is MINE and MINE alone." That same shitty attitude was also very prevalent in the MMD "modeling" community, where someone would take a model, make edits to it and release the edited version, then forbid anyone from editing their edit in the same way they edited the original model. I'm sure there have even been Skyrim mods where the modder has expressed they don't want anyone modding their mod.
@@MadWatcher Yep, but unfortunately, some people just see modding as a way to feed their ego. They want all the attention and praise, and they see any mods of their work as stealing that attention. Thankfully, some people in modding communities like Skyrim have got together to form a movement advocating for open and cooperative modding (they call it "parlor" vs "castle"), though I feel they go a little too far in some respects, or at least did when I last checked up on them.
My friend once told me about a virus he encountered. He put an old (and I MEAN old) shareware compilation disc into his CD drive, and the X Files theme started playing while a small white square appeared in the middle of the screen, slowly getting bigger and taking over the entire screen. He took the disc out and shut down the PC before it got worse, but I always wonder what would've happened if it continued.
If it did not infect right away, chances are it was not going to do anything harmful. Any virus that wants to infect will do it (literally) faster than you can blink.

Funny thing is the score required for Rensenware is generally considered to be rather low amongst players.The unfortunate part is that the game in-question is literally the hardest one to clear.
UFO isn't the hardest. Subterranean Animism is at least as hard, if not harder depending on your character, and LoLK is cock and ball torture. Clunny is absolutely more difficult than Shou, even if you're playing as Reisen.
@@Skeloperch Uneducated takes, UFO is by far the hardest game to Lunatic 1cc, ask any actual player this and they will tell you the same. SA is easy since there are several ways to break the game and LOLK is an absolute joke in terms of 1cc difficulty (see: LoLK low effort 1cc route by Toimine). Have you ever 1cc a Touhou game before?

I feel like UFO is argued to be one of the hardest ones purely because of the RNG flying saucer gimmick. WBaWC has a similar one but it did the idea way better since it's an optional yet useful power up and not essential for getting resources and score
13:37 There's one other "virus" I know of which actually tells you beforehand that it's going to delete the files on your PC: Lose/Lose. It's not really a virus sense you're not forced to play it but, it's basically a game that looks and functions like any classic shmup. What make it stand out is that with every kill you get in the game, files are deleted off your computer, if you die in game the game deletes itself. You could effectively brick your PC running this program. There's a video on youtube of a guy running it on Windows 7, the original was for MacOS tho and was a university project, apparently.
touhou hijack lol i love how for the first time in, well, fucking *ever* that rensenware is covered, it's obvious that the dude talking about it is actually somewhat familiar with the series (despite the best attempts at trying to play it off lol) the background music, the intentional increasingly absurd mispronounciations including a popular parody one as the first one, everything. *He knows.*
I remember sonic gather battle i was there when the situation was happening live it was fascinating seeing a real life creepypasta happening in front of our eyes all cause the guy wqs being petty about sprites even though he himself already stole a bunch of sprites then just the extent you had to go to just too get rid of it. It was one of the craziest things i ever had the pleasure of witnessing
This is the first time I've seen someone mention the stolen Super Why assets from Protogent. I used to watch that show as a kid and recognized it immediately when that commercial screencap became a meme but I've never seen anyone talk about it. Made me kinda happy to see you bring it up :)
this is a kinda cheesy thing to comment. but a lot of the time with videos that cover topics like this, the creators tend to make the atmosphere really tense and serious, which effectively makes ME feel paranoid, but i much much prefer your style, where there's humour while still being informative. i love it
2:30 I remember that one. As a Sonic fan who appreciates the fangame scene and all the passion that goes into it, this news really left me feeling sour.
I accidentally gave my dad's pc a computer virus when I was 11, not on purpose as I didn't know what the website actually was and originally thought it was a gaming website since I saw two boys playing some monster earth worm game (at least I think it was) and I wanted to try it out for myself. Had I known what My Lazy Sundays was originally I wouldn't have clicked on it.
@@doodlebebjoe6447 Do not search it up or click on it as you'll get shown uh gay p/// the tab showing the content will flash all over the screen. (That's all I can actually remember..) Quite a terrifying sight for 11 year old me at the time.
The moment I heard the word "Rensenware" again, old age materialized itself like a Master Spark and broke my knees with the power of senility catching up to me.
I like how one week I can watch a video about lolcows, then get a video about viruses, then get a video about wikis. All from a dude with a Leo Luster pic. Mush should be the posterboy for meds.
As an average Touhou fan, I cringed inside when you pronounced the series as 2hu. Then was confused when you got it right the second time. Then you proceeded to say it differently every time you said it. Ending the segment with “I sure hope I got the name right!” killed me. Excellent work. Edit: Also nice use of the Kirby: Right Back at Ya! footage. Having both Kirby and Touhou in the same video is an instant way to get my approval. (As if my username didn’t make that obvious.)
I remember lurking the lostboy thread when it happened, my absolute favorite gem of shitposting from that was the popup message of "PLEASE INSERT THE FLOPPY DICK INTO THE FLOPPY DICK DRIVE" being one of the messages sent via the RAT to someone.
Oh my god, I can't believe I wasn't expecting Protogent. The rap is such a throwback, lmao. I remember everyone would meme the shit out of it a couple years ago. This whole video is super interesting!!! :0c Nice job!

>"twice a Japanese cartoon creature was evolved into a virus that was just meant to cause chaos and nothing else" Funny enough that's pretty much the plot of Digimon: Our War Game and Summer Wars.
18:04 I like how the chapter titlecard calls it "Protogen Antivirus" (or "Proto General Antivirus" as Bonzi Buddy pronounces it). Protogens have a completely different connotation...
Iirc, I've heard that the original Jigsaw virus actually did give you your files if you paid, but it had a lot of clones that didn't give you the files back. Also suprised you didn't cover Sad Satan here
I’m surprised you didn’t mention the one that’s like a space shooter, like every enemy you kill in that game a random file gets deleted off your computer and that can include important files. Also when you die in the game the game deletes itself.

What's there to fear? 🤷
I love this channel istg
It gives off this perfect early 2010s vibe in a modern take and it's goddamn amazing.
18:04 I like how the chapter titlecard calls it "Protogen Antivirus" (or "Proto General Antivirus" as Bonzi Buddy pronounces it).
Protogens have a completely different connotation...
That's exactly what i thought, just "what, huh, HUH?!" XD
I love how absolutely no one else was talking about that lol
@@Olflix Everyone failed the Forbidden Lore check
Ah, Protogent, reminds me of a simpler time on the internet.. Where do the years go?
That saw clip at the end, I haven't seen that in over a decade when I was 16 or so. Too funny, absolute classic!
Iirc, I've heard that the original Jigsaw virus actually did give you your files if you paid, but it had a lot of clones that didn't give you the files back. Also suprised you didn't cover Sad Satan here
Sad Satan is it's own rabbit hole to cover, just like MovieBob.
@@collaterale1MovieBob?What's that?
Sad Satan is actually in this video... for a few seconds. Clearly, he just decided to leave it out of this video for time.
Babe wakeup new MagicMush vid
It's funny because me and my partner let eachother know when he uploads lol
the thought of the toohoo virus creator playing tuhaha in frustration just to unencrypt his pc amuses me
"Why are Sonic fans like this?" A question for the ages.
"Sonic steals your IP address" sounds like a meme until you find out it actually happened
Another nice dose of a MagicMush video. Keep up the awesome content bro 😎
God, protogent fucking unlocked some middle school memories
You deserve more subs, I'm always watching these the moment I get the notification
8:37 thank you for acknowledging Wubbzy's existence!
Can’t believe Sneed is on that naughty list. Next to Mutahar and you. Anyways great video man. Can’t wait to see what you talk about next.
The ransemware segment had me busting my guts due to all the pronunciation gags. Im a fan of subtle running gags like those.
I didn’t see your channel name and immediately thought Jerma infected his computer on stream 😭😭
Damn you had me dying with the touhou mispronounciations. Love the video!
I’m surprised you didn’t mention the one that’s like a space shooter, like every enemy you kill in that game a random file gets deleted off your computer and that can include important files. Also when you die in the game the game deletes itself.
Lose-Lose?
@@jimmyspingus8895Yep that’s the one.
i love your sense of humour, im really digging your videos
Someone needs to make a Magic Mush virus. Your computer is locked and the only way to unlock it is to recite the entirety of the DKC cartoon songs. Every song must be sang.
I would argue more email accounts in the year 2000 were made by kids to make their angelfire/tripod websites and Neopet accounts.
"The internet is a double edged sword"
Proceeds to drop a napalm of a stock footage intro
I love Lostboy so much. I wwtched that happen and learned to never download spooky indie games from a Mongolian Knot Tying forum.
I experienced a wide range of emotions at first when Bonzi Buddy said "Protogen" Antivirus instead of Protogent at 18:04
A video idea that seems up your lane would be the Swedish statue that people try to destroy every year. There's some funny attempts in there to show off
I gotta say man aside from the great quality of your videos… your voice is just so soothing bro
Finally I can enjoy Magic Mush in full HD!
"The internet is dangerous." *cool intro plays*
I find the amount of time he intentionally said touhou incorrect to be hilarious.
I love how even the creator of the Tou's moving Hou ransom virus couldn't even beat the game on the hardest difficulty.
Mutahar is my favorite content creator, I've been watching him since his creepypasta days if anyone here remembers that. It was really cool to see him get a shout out!
same here, came for the creepypastas, stayed for the virus and deep web investigations (god i miss those)
He's boring. He was interesting 10 years ago.
Yo another magic mush video, your stuff is really good and it's always a treat
It's not a MagicMush video without a crazy ass Sonic moment
I will say this though, Proto doesn't look like an "Original the Character Do Not Steal" anymore. Only slightly. And he's legally distinct too.
is that jerma as the thumbnail??
Who's jera
the "rhymes" in the protogent rap part broke my brain, like it legitimately made my brain hurt
