I always liked this game just because the deaths in this were just....downright disturbing. Obviously because it's a bunch of crazy shit happening to a child, but like that's all you need. You can have the most bloody and gory deaths being shown in video games today but it'll never be as messed up as watching a flying monster come down and bending a kid backwards to snap his spine and carry him off to feast on him.
That was probably your brain trying to protect you from trauma after witnessing these scenes your child brain couldn't comprehend. Same thing has happened to me with other games, which i swear i thought i made up from my memory
Me too, but my 4yr older brother used to play too, so he's with me in our madness. Mostly because of what Frijolito said, but also NO DAMN BODY knows about this game. Once (before google and everything), i could swear he ad a unique copy of something because no one we use to talk had heart about this game before.
I like how some scenes you can tell it's supposed to be gore, like when he gets pinned by the shadow monsters and they start ripping chunks out of his "shirt" but because they colored it that way, they got away with an E rating
@@DecoytheSkeletalBoy funny thing about that death, you can see skin and flesh just before it rips and looks like just his shirt. They tried to hide it but they didn't do too good of a job
@@AREA12security I was thinking that too. Underwater claustrophobia mixed with ugly squishy marine monsters and being vored while alive? Now that's terrifying!
Still loving the fact that this is still being watched in 2018, some fantastic animated sequences!! Such a great game, the death scenes were disturbing and so well done!!
At first it’s a small comfort that most of these deaths are instant. Until you realize how many of them are the kid being swallowed whole, being *eaten alive* by some monster. Or the ones where the worms pull him into the hole, he’s overcome with terror then the *snap* happens and he dies instantly. This entire game is a nightmare.
It's amazing how completely not child friendly this game is for something that *ahem* was rated "E for Everybody" by the ESRB back in 1998. For "animated violence" and "use of alcohol and tobacco." What do you all think after seeing these?
This game did not have to go as hard as it did on it's death animations. They convey a very real sense of death; the way the character's body struggles and then just gives up in the end. It's legitimately disturbing and left a huge impact on me when I played this as a kid because of how unexpected it is. Though sadly, that's really the only reason this game is remembered
It's far from "the only reason this game is remembered." I'm pretty sure that it's also remembered as an ambitious, decently challenging, well-animated cinematic platformer with a fully orchestrated score (the first game to have one) six years in the making, by the creator of Out Of This World, no less. It also shares its title with a famous unrelated novel by Joseph Conrad.
@Anttown123 It's not even them being weak minded though. It is true that these deaths are disturbing for a game rated E. And before you say I'm weak minded, i grew up with live leak.
I remember when I was like 9 years old or something we would play this over at a friend's house and I was scared of this game because of these death animations, they were really upsetting to poor young me, but I never said anything to my friend back then because I didn't want to seem like a whimp :D Childhood's a funny time, you know... looking at it from a much later time. I'm almost 33 now.
And then you have idiot youtubers that give this game a 2 out of 10 or worse because they dont like the jump or just suck at games so they dont like it when the game kicks their ass XD
I like the little detail when you get incinerated while climbing or in midair, the shoe falls down or get melted when it does lava. These animators knew their attention to detail well.
Whoever made this game seems like the spiritual successor to the author who wrote the original Pinocchio. "Make a video game for kids!" "But I hate kids." "Do it, or you're fired!" "...Fine, but you must prepare to accept the consequences."
This is just horrific. Not a drop of blood, but still utterly gruesome ways to die. And all on a *KID,* no less. It's like something out of a Creepypasta... only if it were, there would most likely be blood involved. I'm surprised that even though things were a lot less restrictive back then, they were able to get away with this. That would *NEVER* fly today, unless the creators want Twitter to send them death threats that the people that send them would never get punished for.
I mean, it's a cinematic platformer where you'll die a lot. It makes sense they wanted to give you something to look at. The animations are great to be honest, much better than throwing on a ragdoll like all the games nowdays.
Why does watching a kid die with toon physics (can be pulled around like taffy) feel more horrific than a bunch of other gruesome deaths in games teens can’t even play?
Because you go in knowingly playing (usually) a brutal game as a fully grown adult who is more often than not armed and capable of self defense. Isaac Clarke gets grabbed by a necromorph and you just tap a little button until you snap back and beat the everliving crap out of your aggressor. That one's a relatively equal/even ground struggle of one against the other from a fully capable adult and other entity/party. This is just a kid who, regardless of his dinky little self fashioned laser is absolutely screwed when he's caught. Flailing helplessly until *crunch!*, or not even that sometimes. The only struggle is the useless spaghetti limbs that don't phase the attacker in the slightest and mean nothing. No hope of escape, no means of surviving or self defense. Just game over in what was seemingly a fun little E rated adventure game where, oops! Some shadow creature snapped your spine and whisked you away for its food for later. Be it paternal/maternal instincts on a primitive level to defend the young, or even the deeper idea of a child representing innocence, well, it's a whole heaping wealth of reasons. It's just more gruesome because they're young. Like punting a baby. Could also be the contrast of the cartoony style to how dark and grim the gruesome deaths are too, tbh
Something tells me that if this game were to get the remaster treatment, that it would either need a rating change, or these death animations would be toned all the way down (or replaced with a fade to black).
i remember playing this when i was younger. Death scenes have always fascinated me, since it’s shows so rarely. games like resident evil also interested me. i never finished this one though. Young me could never figure out how to not get spine-snapped in the swamp, so i never made it past that bit
You probably know now, but you had to duck in the water, later on you have a section with underwater hills and valleys and you had to duck in the valley otherwise you would be too exposed. If you're not opposed you can play this game again with an emulator and rom file.
It kinda looks like maybe they had to hastily tone back some of the spritework to be somewhat less violent. Like at 1:32, where there's something blue attached to Andy's shoe, or the various deaths around ~4:00. Oh yeah, and 4:58. MMM, MMM, THAT'S SOME GOOD T-SHIRT. But we'll keep the giant worms that drag a boy in and violently pacify him with the pleasant sounds of neck-crunching murder. That's completely okay. (It's not okay.)
"Reputed to have been ripped from the chest of the greatest vampire to have ever existed, Janos Audron, the Heart of Darkness restores vampiric unlife. Life is precious, Janos discovered - as it was torn throbbing and bleeding from his own body."
The original dark souls, i remember playing this when I was super young, and being destroyed. After completing like one area entirely i thought i was a god.
I was obsessed with this game and I finish it the pixel art and challenges and the ways of dying is what make heart of darkness a one unique experience
The one at 3:06 .... DUDE I'VE NEVER NOTICED THAT SHOE DROPPING INTO ANOTHER SCENE XD Also, what ever are his shoes made of? We need to build houses out of that. And bulletproof vests. And tanks.
Being a single digit year old kid, I saw commercials of this game and it seemed so extraordinarily. Adventerous with an element of treachery andplaying on child fantasies, I always hoped to play this game. Now I'm glad I'm older and have a chance to play it now. If I played it as a kid, I'd be scared into a shock. Having me sleep during the day, and be awake all friken night.
This game was so cool as a kid! It was a bit scary for young me and i never got to finish it because i found it super hard but the games universe is so cool and diverse! You rarely see this anymore
The year was 1998, I was 6 years old living in Korea where my dad was stationed in the Army. My dad and his Army buddies wanted to keep me and my sister entertained, so they decided to play this game that one of his friends just bought with us, not realizing how dark it was. My mom was not happy about it when she saw all the deaths, but my dad and I loved it. This was such a great nostalgia trip.
Those wall worms traumatized me as a kid, just the way they look, the sound they make, it's like an uncanny blend of spider and a snake with a giant starring eye, and how they just snatch you inside of a hole where I pressume they crack your goddamn spine, the implication is so much worse. Goddamn.
I remember having this game on the PS1, I never touched it because I was scared of the name, LoL. Some time later the Disco disappeared and I never saw it again, thank God I never played it, those deaths are brutal ... and as a child I had many nightmares and it scared me with anything, so imagine.
I like how everyone is shocked at how brutal the spine breaking was, but there are other games that look kid friendly that are much more brutal than this.
I never played this game, but I had the chance to see the opening cinematic for it. I remember being blown away that such a simple storyline was told so well. It was way more entertaining than even a lot of major Hollywood films, and it was just a generic sci-fi adventure story!
When I was a kid I remember having a pc game that gave me horrible nightmares. I can't remember for certain if it was this game or not, but the falling fmv looks so familiar and these death animations are so brutal that I'm almost convinced this was it.
I never want to know what was going on through the programmers' heads and why they wanted to see this child eaten and murdered in the most gruesome of ways
Huh. These retro games.... it brings back a memory about a game I was too young to know the name of, but I can vaguely recall the commercial for. I recall.... a boy on the back of some flying creature, like a gargoyle or something? Something about looking for his dog?
The shoes of immortality.
That get burned by lava
The almighty shoes
Like crash bandicoot
Shoes not flesh. Shoes not yummy.

Yes

Don't worry, his one shoe is always fine.
I was like, "lol it's just some kid falling cartoonishly or getting vored by shadows."
And then the spine-breaking and gut-tearing began...

You can hear the friggin crunch of the bone too. Sheesh.
What about The Last of Us?
You obviously didnt played it.
@@SeriousDragonify I for one love TLOU but the deaths scenes in that arent as disturbing, being bitten and shot is pretty much basic in video games.
I was convinced I had hallucinated this entire game from my childhood.
That was probably your brain trying to protect you from trauma after witnessing these scenes your child brain couldn't comprehend. Same thing has happened to me with other games, which i swear i thought i made up from my memory

Wow me 2
No blood, but TONS of violence!
When games are able to do that EFFECTIVELY, that's true art.
It was probably bloodier when they first made it then changed some colors to blue so it wouldn't be such a mature game
definitely some blood between 0:19 and 0:27
I like how some scenes you can tell it's supposed to be gore, like when he gets pinned by the shadow monsters and they start ripping chunks out of his "shirt" but because they colored it that way, they got away with an E rating

Worst part is that it probably didn't kill him

he died later. trust me
He got Bane'd.
4:51 you can see him struggling, until a snap is heard and he goes still.. the worst death in my opinion, how brutal
Yeah, it's one of those on par with 0:42 and 1:09. It's like child friendly Dead Space, lmao.
Same here
In my opinion the coral death underwater were gruesome
@@AREA12security I was thinking that too. Underwater claustrophobia mixed with ugly squishy marine monsters and being vored while alive?
Now that's terrifying!
@@Renegaiden_ idk, some people get off on that
The spine crunching noise, the struggle in the animation, or the kid's shoe being left on the rope... Those makes it scarier than just a gorefest tbh
“Little Boy gets eaten alive for six minutes straight and occasionally falls off a cliff”
And don't forget of being shooted by a fireball
If there is one take away from this, it's that nothing can harm a good pair of kicks
Still loving the fact that this is still being watched in 2018, some fantastic animated sequences!! Such a great game, the death scenes were disturbing and so well done!!

End of 2023
The sound of a sharp crack when pulled into a dark hole by a worm is the most unnerving death here...
Dude I was just thinking the same thing
Worm either had teeth to chomp into him or snapped his neck.
Yeah it’s disgusting 🤢 😂
That hole was tiny so he must have used a lot of force to pull him i to that thing
At first it’s a small comfort that most of these deaths are instant.

Harmful to Minors: The Game.
That's not even counting the brief shot of animated nudity. Of one of the Amigo creatures, sure, but it's there.

This game has genuinely some of the most brutal deaths you’ll see in any game.
All the underwater ones are the worse. You see him struggle in vain just to get pulled in.
I've never even heard of this game before. Why are only the falls animated with a _high res_ CGI video?
For the morbidly macabre longing for the sight of children getting killed in video games...

Best video game based on a Joseph Conrad novel ever.
In which way?

Love this game but was hard as hell for me back then. Still have it so maybe one day I will give it a whirl.
Any spooky things, are deadly.

Are there any other old games with death animations like this??
