It’s a shame that when Joey summoned Rufus he was just stuck to a rock and it was daytime, he would’ve imploded if he wasn’t and it happened late at night.
@@RoseOfNight We need him to spam it and then find the mass of bodies it leaves due to them hurting each other. And then we find out the dev fixed that and Joey has a heart attack.
This funny little fella was inspired by a Twitter post from the artist Gooseworx, which detailed a "dream" they had where roughly the same encounter as in-game occured (minus it getting stuck in rocks), accompanied by art that inspired the model. I'm pretty sure the name "Rufus" is original tho.
Yeah the 'skinned alive' part is now in a bit more detail, since v0.6.0 adds a somewhat more detailed model for dr. kel AND 'gore', i.e. blood and gibs.
I like that way of describing it. You know something is out there, and it's only a matter of time until it gets to you and you really can't do anything about it.
They’d probably need to ask permission first But then again, there is a Vinesauce plushie already and Joel did not know it was there until he played it for the first time. So who knows?
7:33 I actually got startled by the red toolbox on the floor, thought Rufus somehow clipped his way underground and was getting ready to munch your toes off
I'd been waiting for someone to show off this silly monstrosity in an actually sort-of-working, unstuck state after seeing the famous clip. This definitely did not disappoint and the added text commentary was fun. You done Uncle Jobel proud.
I loved the opening of the video, felt like a very short horror film. Had good effort put into it, and the fear factor was right on point. I didn't know it could be killed though, really didn't expect that. Also didn't know about the roar either (which oddly didn't happen when Joel encountered it). A very informative video once more.
@@RealLennyapparently gooseworx had a nightmare about Rufus told some people (i dont remember the details off the top of my head) and behold, its now in Voices Of The Void
Wait, he's suppoped to find you? I ended up jumping behind the boxes in the bedroom, heard an explosion and assumed that was supposed to happen, once I checked he was dead in the garage!
Hi soft_gremlin, I've been watching all your videos since I watched some clips of Joel playing the game and your channel was recommended to me. I love your videos so much, and I also love fat Rufus. I hope you make lots more videos, even of other games.
Nice!! Funnily enough, a clip of Joel summoning Rufus on stream was my first introduction to this game, and trying to find more information on this easter egg is how I came across your channel (even though you hadn't posted a video on it yet), lmao. The way Rufus tracks the player with its head is really reminds me of those 3D illusion dragon papercraft things that always look like they're watching you. It's a good unsettling effect especially when he was stuck and staring at you through the walls/windows, it's really a shame that his pathfinding isn't the best though....
Oh wow I found this channel today and now there's a new video? How awesome! I'll edit the comment once I finish watching Edit.: Conclusion? A dubious little creature getting up to mischief, this is no good.
I really enjoy your content I love the game but I suck at it and get overwhelmed by the multitasking quickly. This channel helps me experience all the oddities hidden inside.
Do I need to tell you that there's this one content creator, The Librarian, killed Rufus without even trying by standing on the roof and having Rufus blow up a jerry can full of ATV fuel? 🤣
Man imagine your just gathering signals at 3 am (in game) and that ominous red text saying “HIDE” pops up what would you do. And also what is they add another entity that has the same “HIDE” text that could just spawn anywhere outside the base and is extremely scary, like at that point if I saw I would immediately alt f4 the game and completely uninstall the game after that
Rufus is now killable with gas canister explosions and drops a mini fat-version plushie of himself on death. Make sure to damage the gas can a bit before throwing as it may not explode otherwise. One explosion on Rufus should do it, I'd throw from the roof of the base to be safe.
Very cool vid, thanks! Only knew rufus from joels video, so I didnt even know it can actually move cuz it was he never observerd it moving as it instantly got stuck when getting near the base. Also never heard the sound before xD
It getting stuck on the rock was the funniest thing that could happen, but not as funny if Joel start to go out the front doo rand Rufu's head was poking through the wall.
nextbots arent just pngs that chase you they are npcs with advanced pathfinding rufus does not have decent pathfinding at all therefore he isnt a nextbot
Facts: 1. There is a bug with this event where you get clipped into the backrooms. On exit of "The Backrooms", everything is going to stay as before, just with the creature gone. 2. Rufus breaks any prop, or entity (i.e kerfurs and omega-kerfurs) 3. This event, upon failure no longer gives you the game over screen. 4. This event could be survived by either killing Rufus (as mentioned here) or by typing in the console "rufus.fuckoff" 5. The ambience no longer plays during this event.
Honestly I think Rufus getting easily stuck in objects works in its favor since anyone who doesnt know how it works could just stumble on him standing by some rocks. Assume he just stares at you. Then go about their day only to later be jumped by the oversized muppet.
Better just place one full gas can on opened main door, close garage and summon Rufus. His hitboxes will touch it making it explode and make an easy win + thiccfus plush

It was kinda funny when Rufus got stuck.
We could probably tell him to do it again
@@RoseOfNight We need him to spam it and then find the mass of bodies it leaves due to them hurting each other.
And then we find out the dev fixed that and Joey has a heart attack.
After seeing that particular stream, I decided to see this thing myself...
To say that he scared the shit outta me would be an _understatement._
It was pretty spooky just staring at him
Watching rufus get catapulted into the statosphere from a rock for a grand total of 1 frame absolutely killed me.
Yeah, that's about what I expect from a Gooseworx monster.
a(r)erial faith plate
I mean, I guess they can add that to the list of ways to get rid of the lad.
It also had the horror trope about characters never looking up
finally, i think this is actually the only footage of rufus other than joel's stream
Its so weird how little documentation there is on this game
the librarian found rufus

It also skined the player alive
Well at least we don't have to see that part
Yeah the 'skinned alive' part is now in a bit more detail, since v0.6.0 adds a somewhat more detailed model for dr. kel AND 'gore', i.e. blood and gibs.
@@Maschinenpistole1good lord,
I was wondering what the game meant by "rendering:gore" on the loading screen
@@stoopid_cat yeah, that's not the only place it gets used, let me tell you.
Can't you also type "rufus.fuckoff" at a console to despawn him after he's been spawned in?
yes (allegedly)
Lmao if this is real then dev is the best
I tried it, and it works.
lmao so they added a failsafe
cool.
He is barricading like a cartoon
This game is really good at preying on that feeling in video games when you feel something is chasing you from the opposite corners of the world
I like that way of describing it. You know something is out there, and it's only a matter of time until it gets to you and you really can't do anything about it.
Immortal Snail conundrum
I love that when he gets stuck Rufus just loops the first ha;f of his roar, like he's angry he can't kill you because if a wall.
i really like rufus' little arms, when i first saw it i thought it was a mouth.
Same
After the initial scare its actually kind of adorable. Hope the dev will add a mini Rufus that follows you around as a pet.
They’d probably need to ask permission first
But then again, there is a Vinesauce plushie already and Joel did not know it was there until he played it for the first time.
So who knows?
Hello again Tomato watcher, funny running into you alot these days.
We have thiccfus, now get ready for smolfus.
Gotta love how after rufus "shakes" it's head at 6:09 you shake yours back trying to communicate.
Gooseworx creature gonna make me feel Dorcelessness
why do i understand this
It would give Joey a heart attack if it wasn’t does pesky rocks blocking its way.
I like that rufus' roar is (or at least sounds like) a sped-up version of scp-682's from scp: containment breach
Hm ok
What if someone did a mod on rufus but instead of him it’s SCP 682
I love how Rufus can get yeeted the same sort of way the player can if they have prop kicking enabled.
He's too fast to shoot with the laser gun, unless he's stuck.
I can't believe he got yeeted into the stratosphere by a rogue garbage can.
"That sounds really boring"
-A red mop.
didn't think it would be something that you can actually kill
Soft gremlin is the canonical Dr.Kel I swear to god with this commentary.
6:46 You can feel his despair the moment he turns the flight on
Can Throwing rocks at Rufus damage him?
I mean Ive seen Joey killed a duende with a rock.
He dies to a single crowbar, so yes. However, because of its absurdly small hitbox you'll have a hard time hitting it during a chase
what
Ambience that comes from rufus is from FNAF 2 I believe. Also its funny finding a refrence to one my favorite indie animators in a game.
Fnaf 1 actually
Which is odd because the music was intended for metallic paranormal spirits (robots), but it works at fear factor anyway
@@whatwat7122 Ah my bad thanks for the clarification.
The fnaf 2 one isn’t actually that scary, it’s usually just a meme nowadays
What if you’re on top of the tower? Will he just stand there menacingly?
I'm prettu sure he does, yeah! Just staring at you. Unblinking...!
I did that experiment once, he just camps below the tower
@@soft_gremlin1845 wee woo... wee woo...

He looks so cuddly! I want to hug him!
he's so cute, i wonder what inspired his creation?

@@sonicboy1123 i was pretending to be unaware for the sake of the joke.

I don't

XD
Apparently the creature is not very intelligent
@@Nombrenooriginal Something similar happened to Librarian
A most terrifying creature yet easily downed by one hit of the crowbar, makes you think but not for too long.
Thanks to this video I realized its lower jaw is actually a pair of tiny arms

I'm pretty sure Rufus is just Red from Godzilla NES, but distorted through the dream visualizer.
I really enjoy your content
I love the game but I suck at it and get overwhelmed by the multitasking quickly. This channel helps me experience all the oddities hidden inside.
according to the wiki, you can also type "rufus.fuckoff" into the console to make him go away.
In the thumbnail the alien looks like red guy from Don’t hug me I’m scared.
can't you just... hide in the basement? you know in the place where the brick wall is im sure that freak wouldn't be able to get into it
Too bad when Joel tried it Rufus got stuck on some rocks.
I always use the hook so i can get on the roof of the base and chill when rufus is trying to beat the fck out of me
I tried doing this, then i realised... This was in 2023 in a different build!
I found out it doesnt say error when you type it in. I'm scared now.
Once joel realizes he can kilk it then rufus is fucked
Do I need to tell you that there's this one content creator, The Librarian, killed Rufus without even trying by standing on the roof and having Rufus blow up a jerry can full of ATV fuel? 🤣
I like how it the creature scream also used in the scp games and the horror ambiance also used in fnaf just this low effort garden of ban ban monster.
Man imagine your just gathering signals at 3 am (in game) and that ominous red text saying “HIDE” pops up what would you do.
And also what is they add another entity that has the same “HIDE” text that could just spawn anywhere outside the base and is extremely scary, like at that point if I saw I would immediately alt f4 the game and completely uninstall the game after that
4:45 the random junk blocking the door reminds me of the scenes at the end of The Blues Brothers
I never heard of this game but it seems pretty damn spooky from watching your videos, I’m wierdly drawn to them. I’d honestly like to see more
He arrives to promote The Digital Circus.
Petition for the devs to make Rufus friendly because he's too cute for anyone to be scared of him
Its roar is actually SCP-682's roar from SCP Containment Breach (or the legacy tiger thresher's roar from barotrauma) sped up.
Rufus is now killable with gas canister explosions and drops a mini fat-version plushie of himself on death. Make sure to damage the gas can a bit before throwing as it may not explode otherwise. One explosion on Rufus should do it, I'd throw from the roof of the base to be safe.
The Librarian having Rufus literally kill himself was the funniest thing ever
I've been craving for a video on this event! ty
He looks like random creature from spore
pretty much everything gooseworx has made looks like a creature from spore
I appreciate the Chickadee declairing it a level 3 threat
He is very good with fortifications.
Gremlin: "Uhh... wrong way buddy"
Rufus: **Shakes head** O_o
Fnaf ambientusic is great here
Love your editing style! I haven't played much of VOTV so I wondered how rufus worked. Thanks for the video. Nice PFP too!
Rufus looks like a Banban type of creature with those silly eyes and red body
i like to think rofus corpse can work as those things irl that are in t pose and moves really silly with wind
garten of banban looking damn monster:skull:
Gooseworx really does just imagine up the most freakiest sh*t huh?
the roar he makes when he chases you is literally just a pitched up 682 sound from cb
Very cool vid, thanks!
Only knew rufus from joels video, so I didnt even know it can actually move cuz it was he never observerd it moving as it instantly got stuck when getting near the base. Also never heard the sound before xD
6:07 nuh uh
barricade system kinda reminds me of gmod's zombie survival, i like it!
Is kinda sad Rufus is stuck on Joel stream.
Never realised how lucky Joel got
When I saw the thumbnail I thought this was Red Guy from Don't Hug Me I'm Scared lmao
The amazing digital circuses lost character is insane
Rufus is fucking adorable. I want a real plush of him
Just remember that anytime you are not running from "it", "it" only gets closer.
Would love to see an animation added where rufus prys open doors instead of the doors magically opening
It getting stuck on the rock was the funniest thing that could happen, but not as funny if Joel start to go out the front doo rand Rufu's head was poking through the wall.
I like how it looks at you kinda sideways all the time
Rufus is cute, he's like a treefrog crossed with a beanbag chair
Evil giant starfish.
With partial No Clip powers.
he’s so cute (:
Bro spawned a nextbot
nextbots arent just pngs that chase you they are npcs with advanced pathfinding rufus does not have decent pathfinding at all therefore he isnt a nextbot

This is what making weird cartoons does to a person (gooseworx)
I love him, what a fella
damn this thing is cute when idle
my 1.5 braincells couldn't remember "not moving" lol
and at the same time so uncanny
Man, why u gotta bully Rufus like that, he's just a confused red fella
Нечего удивительного , просто Руфус приехал от бабушки .
Go get him rufus
Love your content keep posting
when you moved to Germany and your new neighbor stares at you every time: 1:53
I love him, what a beautiful boy :)
Gooseworx is an interesting youtube channel
Joel will shit himself when he finds this
Oh wait...
