    - Have real long grabbers.

      The key thing is to record double wide. One side is the game in regular 1080 resolution and the other side is the webcam in regular 1080 resolution. Doing this for recordings lets you manipulate the webcam side around just like Mark and Sean do. Seemingly easy, but many prefer to just resize their webcam on the game and leave it.

    the scary thing about games like this, is that they tap into the uncanny valley effect. which is not just something that some people have, it's an instinctual thing. It causes anxiety and fear because we a humans, fear what we dont know. Uncanny valley is where something can look human but slightly off. It scares us because were unable to identify if it's entirely a threat or not

      Very true,
      In addition, unpredictable and chaotic noises, specially the scream of women and children are naturally carved into our brains as a sign of threat. Mixing this with realistic footage instead of cartoon-ish or at least some what unrealistic graphics that others usually use, and the distortion of normal stuff like sounds and faces, giving them more unnatural properties, results the worst possible for our beains

    I like coming back to this video because I really enjoy this particular style of horror/analog horror, with the alternates and uncanny valley effect. It's got a really good mesh of elements that make it so perfectly scary for different reasons.
    You have your uncanny valley effect, the idea of something being human-like but not quite right. Then you have the idea of the unknown, of something you don't or can't fully grasp. Then the idea of the unknown assailant/entity/etc being smart or sentient enough to learn; it's not just mindless and acting on base instinct, it is intelligent and can adapt and can actively choose to deceive you or lure you in. And then the idea of false hope or even no hope; the fact that even if you can cry out for help, help is not coming, you are alone and you will not be saved. And lastly, the element of something being in your space, your home, a place that is usually inherently believed as a haven; that's now no longer true, and you are no longer comfortable or safe in your own home/or place that should be those things.
    I really like analyzing horror concepts and understanding why exactly things are scary. This mandela catalogue style in particular is fantastic at nailing one or more of these elements.

      Probably my favorite form of horror. They aren't cheap like jumpscares, but instead know what makes you tick, and knows exactly how to get under your skin.
      Also fun fact: The creator of the Mandela Catalogue got inspiration from the pandemic. The months spent cooped up in his own house - a very secure place - got him thinking about how to make something *unsecure*
      He also said something along the lines of "It wasn't the boogeyman that scared me as a child, but the idea of coming home one day, going to your room, and seeing yourself standing there." That's definitely the inspiration behind the alternates, and he did a fantastic job portraying them.

I, who kinda believes that aliens exist, but not those green big headed ones, think that there are aliens who can look exactly like us and we wouldn't even know😳 There has been actual evidence proving all this. I don't think that the devs created this game for fun only. I think they created it to spread something to think about. Spread awareness, maybe?

    If anybody is wondering why this is so unsettling, it is because the game makes use of ‘the uncanny valley’ which is the designation for things that look very human but which we (for an unknown reason) know are definitely not. It is the small things such as slightly displaced facial feature or simply an extremely slightly impaired voice that can trigger this gut instinct that we have.
