I'm not so sure it's so much tentacles as roots. Makes sense, everything else is a flower, but you're the roots that have to keep digging yourself deeper and deeper. No one wants to see the ugly roots under a pretty flower, I imagine is the logic.
Reminds me of getting violently ill when you live alone. Catch something at a party, every day it gets worse, call out of work, refuse to go to the hospital, become flesh demon, dig pit in basement, wield your infernal instrument of freedom to slay the demonic angels of vanity that plague your soul as you accept your truest self and all its flaws as you carve your way out of the hell that has sprouted within your bones, wake up feeling better.
Well, yes, it's a little annoying but there's a good thing about this. You might also grow third arm on your body and it helps you to fight flower people all around your house.
“If I go out I’m worried I’ll end the credits early” this is why I like manly. He’s happy to give the credits a roll to show people who made the game and who to thank
A kid in my Spanish class vomited all over the place earlier today, so now I have to relive that experience all over again due to this video. Thanks, manly.
Huh, was half expecting a chain of party incidents, where people projectile vomited at the sight of you, and you constantly mutated while failing to get away.
Definitely seems like the game is, at least in part, a metaphor for improving one's self-image, specifically, I think, defeating the idea that you have to be perfect. Hence the enemies being these marble-esque, muscular dudes with flower faces, and the protag being this gross, hunched over monster, until the end, when he's overcome it.
I actually liked this game alot more than most PS1 graphics games, there was just something special about this one, the way everything played out/was set out differently and the textures made it super unique, its like a silent hill rpg especially with the fighting mechanics and monsters. Another great video as always 👍🏼
_The moral of so many stories_ Don't have parties with weird people or go to them. Or don't stand next to really drunk girl who vomits. Was she infected, or were you just really allergic to vomit? Idk, but it was very Kafka-esque. I liked how not only you changed by being more tantacle-y every day, but your apartment changed too. Even tho I was reminded of Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd with the flower-headed enemies, it was still cool horror.
Yeah, I totally can second that after every social event I just go turn into root-tentacle monster, dig some holes, fight flowermen and then after around a week I'm back to fine. Accurate introvert experience
I feel it looked less like tentacles and more like roots? That paired with the pictures of flowers becoming anatomy and the digging and the garden men make me think its about personal growth and the fraught relationship between the perceived and hidden self. Like a flower and its roots, theyre part of the same thing but we only tend to one of them regularly. Edit: the title seems to refer to a specific french pottery decorating technique, which makes me think of flower pots and outer shells
Barbotine is also a french word to describe really moist clay, used as a glue for clay sculptures and ceramics. I wonder if it means the same thing in English
If I'm mutating into an Eldritch Horror ..the Very first thing I'll do is visit the prettiest girls in the town and give them some Awkward conversation hahahaæ
Hey Manly! I dont know if you mind of people asking for games that you have not played yet, but this zoonomaly game is something I would LOVE to see ya playing! Anyways, i'm a big fan and if it bothers you, i will absolutely stop this! Thanks for beeing the best
ive been sick for 3 months straight, each time i start to feel better a new sickness crops up. been juggling between pneumonia, sinus infections, and ear infections. this game is literally what that feels like. yes ive been seeing the doctors and yes i take what they give me, yet still i can't get better.
I think our protagonist here got sick after getting vomited. And we are seeing afterwards from the perspective of him sick fighting against his sickness or our immunization fighting against the bacterias, idk
Whats funny is barbotine is a pottery technique to add flower decorations to a clay pot. Dont know if it has anything to do with the name of the game though.
So... girl pukes on you at party, which causes the character to get body snatched, turning into a flood like creature, then you end up in a place that looks like doom and outlast had a location baby, where you're fighting silent Hill esque flower faced stone creatures, and it was all a dream...? This was definitely an interesting take on self image and confidence. The battle music was fire too 🔥
yeah, the opening felt like it was going to be a parable for introversion. with the soundtone getting more and more intense during the party and when the girl came over to talk to you. but yeah, everything from there, didnt feel like there was any coherent point or symbolism.
Welcome to the Oh.. Club how Oh... are ya?
Very "Oh". It's so PS1 I can feel it.
🤫🧏♂️
This video bouta be so fireeeee
I’m doing very Oh..Club how Oh… are ya!! Thanks for asking 🍡
Whoever sees this comment or if manly sees it we can all agree manly has a great voice
"& you're ugly" That's something more relatable and frightening than these monsters
exactly 😢
Bro right? He just like me, he just like me fr
Mood
There once was an ugly barnacle, he was so ugly that everyone died. The End
Truly saddening
The classic
I'M UGLY AND I'M PROUD
LEEDLELEEDLELEEDLE
@@JunkyardGodis that what he calls it?
I bet the actual thing that started the transformation wasn't the party or the vomit but was instead caused by the all-day PS1 gaming binge.
Pretty sure you upset the PS1 fans with that one
My parents always said my butt would root to the chair if I sat in it too long when playing my PS1/PS2... I think this game proved them right.
No wonder I also had tentacles
99% of all mothers right there
But the real rot and tentacles were the friends qe made along the way
Moral of the story?
Don't go to a party and get puked on or risk becoming a flood combat form
That sounds badass though, so its actually a good ending
imagine a super sentai transform sequence into FLOOD COMBAT FORM.
Wasn't expecting a halo reference
Hey nice
One single flood spore can destroy an entire species
I'm not so sure it's so much tentacles as roots. Makes sense, everything else is a flower, but you're the roots that have to keep digging yourself deeper and deeper. No one wants to see the ugly roots under a pretty flower, I imagine is the logic.
Aighttt i see u, u smart
Went from "What's happening to me?!?" to "Fuck it, we ball" real fast.
"Fuck it, I had enough of this bullshit." *grabs double-headed shovel with smashing intent*
"The worst she can say is no."
Yep
Are you sure she can't laugh at you, invite her friends to laugh at you, and then tell everyone who knows you to laugh at you?
@@aquablast3155 What's wrong with people laughing at me?
*BARFFFFFF*
"Well, there's something worse than no I suppose"
@@YurieSnowieikr
Imagine if at the end everything was back to normal but you now had TWO PlayStations...
Well given that this is a horror game..... could have been worse tbh
Could have awaken to a Sega Saturn, 3D0 or worse.... a CDI 🤮

Nice. Keep one, sell the other.
PlayStation 2 😨

It's a doozy, but the feeling of accomplishment is so fuzzy.
Man dont you just hate it when you sit down to play playstation and the next day you wake up with tentacles on your body just so annoying right guys
Well, yes, it's a little annoying but there's a good thing about this. You might also grow third arm on your body and it helps you to fight flower people all around your house.
That's why i don't attend eldritch ritual no more. It's a pain to get rid off.
😩😩🥵😳
@@theblackestblackever9339 and the third arm also works for miscallenous stuff after the flower people are gone!
Holy shit my dude this is brilliant!
“If I go out I’m worried I’ll end the credits early” this is why I like manly. He’s happy to give the credits a roll to show people who made the game and who to thank
I just hate when I get puked on and wake up as a tentacle monster fighting flower guys with a shovel
you made a typo friend
leave hin alone
A kid in my Spanish class vomited all over the place earlier today, so now I have to relive that experience all over again due to this video. Thanks, manly.
Someone spiked the punch at the party with psychedelics. Senior just having the worst trip ever
You're hallucinating and start beating people up with a shovel
SOME WICKES PYSCHADELICS
The soundtrack is such a banger the way it keeps changing time signatures
Huh, was half expecting a chain of party incidents, where people projectile vomited at the sight of you, and you constantly mutated while failing to get away.
You COULD dig a hole safely, but then you'd have to call 811, and that means telling someone you don't actually have a good reason for digging a hole.
Aside from the body horror aspect, this game is truly a horror if you have both social anxiety AND emetophobia.
u calling me?
me fr?
yup me fr thats literally me
Not gonna lie, with that title I was hesitant to even watch this one until I realized how low poly it was 😂
@@NormOttdeer same here fr
If it makes MC feel any better, I bet that girl also barricaded herself at home for a week feeling just as mortified.
3:29 i was looking at my reflection on the phone.. i was happy until “U LOOK AWFUL” jumpscare.. i felt it personally
"where you're at a party and.."
All you do is pet the dog/cat
Hey, somebody stop drinking for 2 seconds and bring me a brush for this dog!
Thats all i want to do anytime i go to someone else's house.
The true horror: there were not a single pet at the party.
Definitely seems like the game is, at least in part, a metaphor for improving one's self-image, specifically, I think, defeating the idea that you have to be perfect. Hence the enemies being these marble-esque, muscular dudes with flower faces, and the protag being this gross, hunched over monster, until the end, when he's overcome it.
This is inspiring me to write a poem or prose on it.
3:29 Manly: "You look good"
Also manly: "You look awful".
I actually liked this game alot more than most PS1 graphics games, there was just something special about this one, the way everything played out/was set out differently and the textures made it super unique, its like a silent hill rpg especially with the fighting mechanics and monsters.

This is the average introvert's experience after attending a party. We call this part "recharging our batteries" xD
Yeah, I totally can second that after every social event I just go turn into root-tentacle monster, dig some holes, fight flowermen and then after around a week I'm back to fine. Accurate introvert experience
that dead guy playing ps?
i guess you could say... rest in ps...

The opening party scene alone is giving me anxiety
Barbotine is also a french word to describe really moist clay, used as a glue for clay sculptures and ceramics. I wonder if it means the same thing in English
Title sounds like what would happen if I went out to a bar.
Or just girl turn to look at me 😁
too real
If I'm mutating into an Eldritch Horror ..the Very first thing I'll do is visit the prettiest girls in the town and give them some Awkward conversation hahahaæ
>_>
If you're gonna go to a party, don't be surprised if you end up surrounded by pot heads.
12:08 - Manly, while surrounded by super muscular, flowery men: “You wanna come?”
LOL. Poor Manly.
Black blood of mold would be a sweet metal band name.
Hey Manly! I dont know if you mind of people asking for games that you have not played yet, but this zoonomaly game is something I would LOVE to see ya playing!

"idk" kinda sums up every game manly covers.
Self-replicating shelves, my dream come true
0:31 MANLYS LIL DANCE ATE
This is why you don't go to parties and get puked on kids. You WILL grow tentacles and other eldritch horrors.
Not too scary despite the body horror, but it had some amusing combat unexpectedly and a shockingly good soundtrack.
"& you're ugly"
damn, can't even escape that in fantasy worlds anymore, can I?
"Hello flower, I am tentacle" is the sort of social interaction I would have in a party like that
The soundtrack is so sick, the beat switches are top notch
"I am totally not socially awkward"
The wisest thing ever stated in the internet... EVER.
When I say I'm rotting in my room, this is what I mean
I can't believe someone turned my life into a videogame.
Thank you for partaking in our new recruitment process. Grandpa loves lively kids. Well, to be fair grandpa Nurgle loves everyone. Isn't it lovely.😊
Well, you can kiss that damage deposit goodbye.
The battle/action sequence soundtrack is pretty cool!
10:00 if he's talking about breakdown for og xbox i just gained even more respect for manly, criminally underrated masterpiece
Music goes hard
*keep vibing in there mr infested terran*
Literally at the start is pretty much any party and you’re the kind to be socially awkward
You know it's gonna be good when you spot that pixelated RE2 PSX cover on the corner of the tv stand. 0:17
This game is clearly about social anxiety, introversion etc.
Whats funny is barbotine is a pottery technique to add flower decorations to a clay pot. Dont know if it has anything to do with the name of the game though.
Technically you can add whatever you want, but yeah, it's basically frosting pottery with liquid clay.
Well that got dark fast.
So... girl pukes on you at party, which causes the character to get body snatched, turning into a flood like creature, then you end up in a place that looks like doom and outlast had a location baby, where you're fighting silent Hill esque flower faced stone creatures, and it was all a dream...? This was definitely an interesting take on self image and confidence. The battle music was fire too 🔥
i love the weird unique games like this
That was one hell of a hangover
Love how Manly makes sure the credit entirely plays out before ending 🥺❤️
You can't tell me that this isn't something people may be into.
Well that went from "Typical House Party" to "Papa Nurgle's Funhouse" real quick.
"You wanna come?" -Manly 2k24
the soundtrack goes hard as hell
That soundtrack is phenomenal!
If anybody asks me why I'm an introvert, I'll just show them this. I only deal with GRADUAL mutations and my OWN vomit, thank you.
I don’t need horror games to experience being ugly
'I'm ugly and I'm proud!'
Idk what the hell is going on, but the games music is pretty dope
Day 4 reminds me of a dream I had last week. Holy crap. It's so on-point that this could be the continuation. Crazy!
this person has been to some baaaad parties
My favorite genre of video game fr. It’s so underrated
i shouldnt have chosen this video to watch while eating
That battle track was pretty nice.
character: *mustating into a mosnter*
Manly* did the mirror move?
"The floor is reverse raining black blood" Perfectly normal
"And we also have two lamps" Too weird for Manly
The soundtrack for the day 6 goes hard
So basically this game is all about someone slowing turning into the flood 😶
The slow transformation was a neat touch. Can totally see the symbolism mentioned.
I'm watching him after maybe almost 1-2 years 😭❤, I love his content ❤
These games are so weird...
I love it.
This is what happens when you don’t take out the fly invested trash guys
why does the title feels like a personal attack
It was all a bad hungover nightmare
Title sounds like my usual Friday.
Im ugly? This is horrifying.
YAY MANNY UPLOAD
yeah, the opening felt like it was going to be a parable for introversion. with the soundtone getting more and more intense during the party and when the girl came over to talk to you. but yeah, everything from there, didnt feel like there was any coherent point or symbolism.
Dam bro u have one of the best voices i ever heard🔥
Imagine trying to get your furniture down those hallways.
manly highkey based for leaving the credits on to the end
The PS1 was perfect as is, it doesn't need to mutate.
This is a Lucifer Valentine film
Good night i will watch this tmr
It's like prom all over again!!!
Title for this is so weird that you can't help but click it :D
I'm glad I'm not the only one who remembers breakdown. especially that twist half way through.
