I love how when you killed the madman and unintentionally Jack in the process, Jack’s corpse just continued having a chill convo with you. Jack is clearly an omnipotent being that will be the final boss of the real game now cause of this revelation.
These are some of the most abrupt situations I've seen in a horror game lol. Breaking into a house, DNA alteration and skill trees, Parasite boss fight, finding out you're daydreaming, madman "kidnapping" emma and tabino, Jack just... leaving and then you get a dog engraved with your name. Like it's BEEN 20 MINUTES. xD
I mean, as a demo it does it's job of showcasing the game and making people want to know more about it. Like, damn, now I wanna know why everyone was so casual about the entire ordeal as if it was just no biggie.
❓Hopping on this comment to ask if Manly could please put demo in the title next time? I wouldn't have watched this video if i knew it was a demo! Too many devs dont understand how to use demos and release them months or even years before the game is out! I just cant handle getting invested into a story only to have to wait forever to find out what happens next! IF we ever find out what happens next. Same reason i refused to start the ASOIAF book series. And im glad i didnt read them, because they still haven't gotten the last books and its been over a decade. I just cannot emotionally handle the curiosity and not knowing! ❤
@@WhitneyDahlin it says in the description "the upcoming game" so u can check the description in manlys videos from now on before watching them if u r worried abt that too much
This demo is wild. Rare to see a game where the protagonist and his ally clearly knows significantly more than the player and other side characters. Pretty ambitious systems here too, this dev obviously wants players to have a sense of control for what happens. I'm pretty interested to see just how much your choices can change things.
Suddenly, in the middle of searching for clues: "Don't look for me, no matter what! I could explain but I'd rather be incredibly ambiguous in this situation!" Friend: "I should find him and get answers." Ah, yes. Good to see friends who deserve each other.
I've seen a lot of games and demoes you've played before but this is honestly the first game that got me really really intrigued, that and just how wild the story is within 20 min of gameplay.
It's an interesting premise, but its weakness is a severe lack of pacing in its haste to show all the game mechanics, and no doubt could use some improvement in character interactions/dialogue to fit the scene better
I like how Manly tries to kill the murderer with his magic tentacles, but the mosquitoes accidentally kill Jack in the process. And yet, Jack is still talking in his dialogue! 🤣🤣🤣
Hmm, its a very interesting game. Considering the fact that its made by the same dev who made Dear Red, the 7 Mysteries and a ball game which he ended up deleting.
@SangHendrix HOLY SHI- THE DEV IN PERSON !!! DANG WHAT AN HONOR :O Didn't expect u'd pop up like that haha !! I have personally played all ur games (except this one) and I even remember u had a different username before (most prolly ur real name ig) Plus, you once replied to a comment on playstore that the ball game wasn't complete yet and the full game would come later. Hope u r working on it and it comes as soon as possible. Also all the very best for ur other games as well ^^
_The game's afoot_ I enjoyed the set up of the game as a mystery to be solved. There might be aliens or some virus from an asteroid OR the kids may be delusional. But I absolutely loved the mosquitos and really want to see what other other dna will be available. Very different and will look forward to you playing the full release and uncovering all the secrets.
manly always uploads very late for me, usually between 12 am to 3 am, it's the perfect timing because I work night shift til 2:30 and get a nice little treat when I'm home. always feels like a reward for getting through the day.
Been seeing a lot of upcoming games lately that claim to adapt and evolve based on your choices, past experiences left me disappointed, here's hoping this one delivers
This game has a lot of character/depth for a demo, and I'm really excited to see hoe this one turns out (along with all the possible choices and layers)
If the full game comes out I wonder if you can combine with the save and respawn monsters to get infinite points until you're literally unstoppable. Then you can just go forward knowing no one will never be able to defeat you.
Based on the "2 questions only" part, it seems that this game is designed with a lot of replayability in mind. I wonder if there is a point where we can abuse the save point and maxed everything.
Me wonder when full release made, save respawn make more than many points. Then you go become god. Me have no idea where me going with this. Unga Bunga.
Considering the first boss, it looks like the best weapons are the vines with mosquitoes and the bow. I don't know how would you deal with the enemies with a melee weapon.
Parasite has a specific attack pattern, and goes to the corpse to scream after every 6 attacks where she's open. Then on Phase 2 just focus on movement and wait for the dash attack before wailing away... but it's pretty hard for being the first/only enemy in the game though, so here's hoping it gets a range buff or something in the full release.
Oh that's easy, the moment she pulls up she freezes. You can chain some solid hits with the knife. It takes practice first few times, but knife let's you kill her real fast tbh.
@@indra_vrtrahan There's been an update since then. Namely, Parasite no longer has contact damage unless she's dashing towards you. It's way easier now that you don't have to worry as much about the horrible range of the knife.
I really love seeing RPG maker games because ive been working on my horror RPG game using RPG maker for 7 years now. Im only one person working on it and thats why its taking forever. I always love to see what other indie devs implement in their RPG maker game. I can literally see the code and event calls as the game progresses. Its awesome lol. Maybe when i finish the demo, you can play iton your own time and give me some feedback on what you think? You dont have to upload it to your channel or anything. My game is gonna be comprosed of 3 short horror stories that all connect in some way. Ive already completed most of the first short story. I could produce a demo of just the first story within a few months if life doesnt get in the way lol. Thanks for the upload Manly ✨️✌️🤝
Still made in rpg maker. There are certain ui/windows/sounds that if you are familiar with rpg maker you would probably recognize it. Also the creator posted on the rpg maker subreddit.
Apparently this town is a worse place to live than Mandela count of things escalate this quickly and everywhere sucks, with Magic and stuff too? Good lord.
I really like this demo! It seems to be an interesting story with nice characters. I like games like this! Though I just wish this demo revealed at least something about the story. So many things happen and they go without any answer or hint. Love me a good mystery, but I need something to grasp haha
I've also managed to kill both the killer and Emma at the same time, with the knife (probably the hardest weapon). It'll default to the "do nothing" route by the looks of it... A little funny that the first decision involves people in close proximity and the given DNA ability is an AOE-type attack, or a seeking attack with the vines.
this game had insaaane programming like wow im blown away... the sound design and art also is so clean but im ngl the boss fight song was kind of irritating

Made me giggle snort.
Yea manly fears no one
Wait I'm confused this game is in early access but what's the difference between that and just a demo?
Early access is generally more complete, like how the game will mostly look and feel. At least that's my take on it. @@WhitneyDahlin
This legit feels like a dream. Like when you dream and the plot goes from one incoherent thing to another
I hope the game doesn't end with "it's all a dream" though...
Manly calling himself a snake in the beginning of the video and then a few minutes later killing his best friend is great comedy.

Come to think of it yeah. The fact that the protagonist knowa how to use the monster dna right off the bat was a huge clue that he knows things.
@@weirdoregonianwe love non-avatar protagonists.
What I've learned from this video was that Manly controls mosquitos.
And doesn’t want to grab a weapon
@@JamesTK Don't need to when he is the weapon
@@JorgeLopez-qj8puthat’s true. The mosquitoes were easy to have accidental side effects though…
Suddenly, in the middle of searching for clues: "Don't look for me, no matter what! I could explain but I'd rather be incredibly ambiguous in this situation!"
Friend: "I should find him and get answers."
Ah, yes. Good to see friends who deserve each other.
If you could shoot mosquitoes you'd brag about it too.
But I think manly's underselling himself, he can also control plants.
*They're in a forest!*
Looking forward to him being able to manipulate other forms of plant/animal life with the DNA system
I've seen a lot of games and demoes you've played before but this is honestly the first game that got me really really intrigued, that and just how wild the story is within 20 min of gameplay.
Righhtt 🥲
I don't like it. It's too chaotic and random for me, and the characters just act so casual about all this. Imma pass
it's so busy...got confused

@@lazyperfectionist3978That's the point. It's a demo. They're just trying to show you what's to come.
Manly with his power to shoot mosquitos has only 1 weakness, a can of raid.
Shadow legends? 🤨
2 weaknesses
And friendly fire
@@Akaira_Juke what was so friendly about it?
@@vinzo0913 🥁
I was sold the moment I saw the character being able to dash

The harsh proof that mosquitos are the bane of everything on planet earth.

Imagine that being an icebreaker on a first date. "I control mosquitoes"
To be fair, that'd literally be a super power lol.
This was actually a pretty interesting game
Can’t wait for the whole thing to come out
This actually looks incredible, has the whole in-real-life rpg ala earthbound, and I can imagine the variety would be incredible
It took me until now to realize that Jack is wearing a shirt.
ME TOO
I seriously thought he was in his underwear until I read this comment lol
This indie horror has potential to become new big thing
Okay now this looks promising!
The mosquito magic is average Lapland summer XD
I would prefer a better power
Layers like in onions? Ya know how ogre's are like onions with the layers? Ooo how about parfaits? Everybody loves parfaits

As an indonesian, i'm watching this at 3 in the afternoon.
As a human, I'm watching this my eyeballs. I don't know the time, it is all dark down here.
Someone really took Action RPG elements and made it into a horror game. Not saying it's "revolutionary", but I've not seen this really.
Another game called One Night: Full Circle comes to mind where you can have a gun and encounter shadow people and monsters.
Zoomer alert
This was a wild ride, I honestly can't wait to see more. Not how expected things to go from how it started.

It is fresh, and it is late! Manly and gas station impulse snacks are the same perfect timing!
Everytime I watch these videos it's like a fractured ribcage and pelvis, thanks so much. Add more rubber duck noises also.

Considering the first boss, it looks like the best weapons are the vines with mosquitoes and the bow.
I don't know how would you deal with the enemies with a melee weapon.
wait for the blood burst, go in and stab, dash out to avoid the tendrils, and repeat for the rest of the fight, id assume.
