I was waiting for SuperHorrorBro to play Mouthwashing. Mike's reactions are going to be wild and can't wait for the story explained/theory video for this game.
Curly is such a complicated character man. I think you were right Mike where because he and Jimmy were friends he tried excusing his assault on Anya. But I believe he was also worried about his own reputation since if it got out he wouldn't be going to do "bigger and better things" like he wanted. But that isn't to say I don't think he didn't care about Anya, he just unfortunately didn't prioritize her like he should have. Also someone correct me if I'm wrong. I forget what the flower that is associated with Daisuke is called but I know they die pretty early from when they bloom. Which I guess is symbolism for how short Daisuke's life was cut. This game's biggest themes is about how you live your life. And the ladder analogy Curly uses fits all the characters. Jimmy is on the bottom, Curly at the top, Swansea and Anya are stuck in the middle and Daisuke had the chance to climb up and up if he hadn't been killed. The section where your shooting Swansea is supposed to be a memorial for Daisuke not Curly I believe. I really liked Swansea's and Daisuke's relationship. Yeah Swansea is a hardass but you can tell he cares about the kid and in turn Daisuke idolizes him. Fun fact: While Swan's are very aggressive they are also very protective of their young but have actually been known to kill their babies if they have to. Like how Swansea had to put Daisuke out of his misery. I love all the symbolism in this game it's so cool! I want the developer to make more story driven games, they clearly have a talent for it.
@@That_one_nerd-r I'm sure there's a bunch of video's analyzing this game better then I can lol. I'm sure Mike will make a story explained video like he usually does
He had involvement in him trying to cover up what his friend did and ignoring what Anya told him before about Jim being a creep to her. And I guessed something bad had happened when she asked why the quarters didn't have locks.
i still don't understand why he crashed the ship? was it in a bout of anger and he just didn't want to confront it afterwards, was it to somehow make curly and/or him look in in end? i missed something
@@NIGHTBLOODUSAGIhe crashed it because the time for the ship to end on earth is almost a year which by then anya could have had the baby and she could have told everyone what happened. even if she didn't tell, nobody is going to ignore the sudden pregnancy of anya and the baby right so jumbo is going to lose his job absolutely but also be fundamentally fucked in every way because he rped her. There's no going back from then on; so he in his frantic way of trying to control all of this thought of the greatest idea of crashing the ship. which will kill everyone and thus nobody will ever get to know the truth. And the fact that curly is the captain so it could have been his fault too.
To clarify the final ending....(spoiler) Jimmy SA Anya and got her pregnant. Jimmy was the one behind all these. Basically, what pushed Jimmy over the edge was when he found out they're all losing their job, Jimmy himself has no future.... In addition to losing all the credits because of he did to Anya. Curly was trying to fix things but he hesitated because he and Jimmy were friends. So by the time he tried to confront Jimmy, it's all too late.
The game's core concept is responsibility after all. If Curly handled Jimmy straight away or hell didn't even pass him then none of this would've happened. Jimmy didn't want to take responsibility for his actions so he attempted to kill himself and everyone by crashing the ship. Curly was put in the pod to be a final scapegoat. A madman who killed his entire crew when the true culprit is already gone.
At long last. A horse horror with a horse monster this time. Horse skeletons are actually terrifying. The skull shape in particular. Horses are very rare in horrors. Too busy in cutsy riding games, so it's nice to see a monstrous equine that actually tries to kill you this time.
Obligatory if you haven't watched Mouthwashing, please avoid reading this spoilery comment! v v v v So! In regards to SHB's comment of: "Are these two friends and if Jimmy was the one who assaulted Anya, is Curly trying to cover it up?" I'll begin with saying this; Yes Curly and Jimmy have been friends for a long time, but as for the interpretation on why Curly talked the way he did to Jimmy after Anya told Jimmy that the🍇led to her becoming pregnant, fans have had different stances on why Curly spoke the way he did to Jimmy before Jimmy crashed the ship. Here are some thoughts I've read from other fans regarding this conversation/their friendship summed up into chunks: - Having known one another for years, Curly has probably has seen Jimmy's ups and downs: It isn't uncommon that in long friendships that have grown unhealthy a person can either turn a blind eye, see things through rose-tinted glasses or believe that the horrid thing their friend did can be reversed because they've seen the good/nice parts of the person. So some people believe that Curly really might've wanted to help his friend, believing they could fix this together because Curly believes Jimmy has good traits and this was just another thing they could fix together, wanting to protect his friend but pushing aside the real victim; Anya. - Others think that Curly probably wanted to help *both* Jimmy and Anya somehow- maybe by being too optimistic that once they would land things would magically be okay, but you can't eat your cake and have it too. Curly wanted to be a good captain for all his crew mates, so much so that regardless of what he might've done, someone would've ended up hurt. For this way of thinking, we have no idea what would've happened if they had finished their route and NOT have crashed; But it is pretty safe to assume that Anya would've been forced to have the baby and who knows if Jimmy would've been sent to jail or not. - Some believe that Curly fully knows that what Jimmy did was awful but since they were floating in space, his hands might've been tied and because of that he tried to ask Anya to be quiet until he could come up with a plan/until they would land. This was not just to the detriment of Anya, but it also allowed Jimmy to walk around and make that poor woman into a nervous mess. Considering Jimmy is pretty much a different kind mess, when Curly gets to know that Anya had told Jimmy that the 🍇led to a pregnancy, he hurries to Jimmy by pretending to 'being there for him' because he's seen Jimmy explode before in anger / doesn't want Jimmy to act recklessly. Who knows if Curly then had planned to actually help Anya when they landed, but letting her 🍇-ist wander around freely is considered by many fans Curly's worst move as he should've dealt with Jimmy as soon as Anya told him about it, in one way or the other.
Daisuke name spelling looks Japanese, in which case it would be pronounced Dye-Su-keh, Or maybe Dye-skeh, since they put a very subtle emphasis on the 'u' syllable generally, but It could be from some other language than Japanese too.
It’s Japanese he seems to be a homage to a character from a Japanese horror movie called Pulse. Similar to how Anya looks like the main girl from the Shining. Also keep in mind, Mike also mispronounced mochi during his Hungry Llamu playthrough so. He said Mo-key. He’s British cut him some slack.
@@dragoncatoverload It's a totally different language, so I get it. Slack has been cut. 👍 But I didn't know Daisuke was based off of a character from a horror movie, too! That's so cool!
For certain, this game was dark. And I don't mean in just environment, I mean the story itself. I almost cried and the horse thing during the final moments when it was chasing us was making me jump out of my skin. I can't make heads or tails on what I just witnessed. But good game still

The raw passion and heart in this game is so captivating, man. I would love for a movie of this, that Swansea and Jimmy shadow scene was more cinematic than anything I've seen in a game.
It seems like there was a bot promoting an NSFW site but it got blocked after a while. If you see any bots, report them immediately and do not reply to them saying something like "bot". They just want attention and nothing else.
I watched Jacksepticeye play it. Now I'm watching you cause your one of my favorite youtubers. I'm already regretting it lol I'm nervous ;v; I'm watching this at 9:30 at night Edit 1 of probably many: I just wanted you to know your voice is so comforting lol Edit 2: I like how everyone assumes that the crew are using their shirts instead of toilet paper lmao Edit 3: I love how you point out every little think it's very enjoyable to watch :) Edit 4: I just realized who Swansea was referring to with the... downstairs comment lmao Edit 5: I didn't realize how load the steps were before lmao Edit 6: DAISUKE WOULD NEVER
If anyone would like an idea for what the title of this game alludes to, I'll try my best. As Mouthwashing suggests, it's the act of washing away bad breath with mouthwash, in the literal sense at least. I found it interesting that how the characters treated the mouthwash(except Curly) alluded to their fates. Anya was on the fence and was most cautious with the stuff, and she ended up taking herself out via OD first. Daisuke was following in Swansea's footsteps but didn't have the experience/tolerance of a veteran like Swansea, so he couldn't survive the responsibility of this line of work. Swansea indulged the most in the mouthwash, and dedicated the last minutes of his life going against Jimmy, the one who vehemently refused to take the mouthwash. Analyzing the symbolism of Mouthwashing the title, it might represent the act of washing away the guilt and burden of their actions. However, just as mouthwash doesn't get rid of the grime in between teeth, Mouthwashing does not remove the guilt but only makes it more tolerable. Stepping away from the main characters, I somehow feel that the corpo of Pony Express is also Mouthwashing to an extent. To eliminate any scandals that might arise from poorly paying their employees, Pony Express seems to want to burn the last bridge that will get them in trouble on Earth. Their firing of the Tulpar crew was the last straw of Jimmy, leading to the events that followed. With Curly being spared and probably being rescued, he might expose Pony Express in the state he's in. Maybe I'm just reaching, but I've only uncovered one of the many layers to this game.
Hey there! I am not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet in the comment section. You missed quite a few dialogues with the tulpar crew, but I love how close your interpretations are to the story! I might want to recommend playing the game again for a second opinion.
I don't think he was worried about his reputation to such a point that it was why he let Jimmy crash the ship. I think he genuinely cared for Anya and her situation but also cared too much about Jimmy when he shouldn't have. to the point he enabled Jimmy because he just wanted to give him a second chance to redeem himself rather than out of lack of care for Anya and her situation. Coupled with other issues like how it is VERY hard to cut off close friends after they did something as horrific. People always say how the second someone close to them has done something wrong, they would cut them off from their lives completely, when in reality, most reactions would be a combination of shock that someone they knew would do such a thing, followed by denial that they did it. And if you are really close, even if they deserve whatever punishment they get, you would dread at the idea that the person you at one point shared a drink with, went to Karaoke with, took the time out of your day to make feel better, is now going to the electric chair even if it's for an action, they themselves are responsible for. furthermore, I think the reason why Curly let Jimmy crash the ship was simply because even after what Jimmy has done, he never expected him to do it. Jimmy not only gaslit him into believing that the Assault was all Curly's fault, but acted like he was a good friend by acting as if Jimmy could take responsibility. looking at Curly at that moment, I could almost hear Curly's thoughts going "... there's no way he's going to crash the ship, he knows what he's doing... right...?" So when he does end up leading the ship to crash, he flips out, and that was the moment Curly realize that he's best friends with a monster... but that was too late, he ends up taking the responsibility for both Jimmy's actions for assaulting Anya and trying to kill everyone and his own actions for ignoring all the warning signs... kinda like what he did in his one dream sequence. This isn't me justifying his actions, he was still wrong to think that a man like Jimmy was redeemable and shouldn't have let him run off and crashed the ship like he did.
Hey Mike ! i got this awesome game you will love ! Its a Horror game similar to doom taking place in an old soviet submarine !! it has mountains of secrets and a few mysterious text files with the game downloads, its called Sonar Shock !!
I was waiting for SuperHorrorBro to play Mouthwashing. Mike's reactions are going to be wild and can't wait for the story explained/theory video for this game.
I was about to comment the same thing. I’ve been trying to be patient and not watch it on another channel
SAAAAAAME
@@cariuxd1332 Yeah, same!

This game can be explained in one simple sentence: Jimmy SUCKS!
No, it was all Jimmy. Jimmy assulted Anya and crashed the ship. Curly had no involvement in anything.
He had involvement in him trying to cover up what his friend did and ignoring what Anya told him before about Jim being a creep to her. And I guessed something bad had happened when she asked why the quarters didn't have locks.

Wake up, Superhorrorbro just posted a new video
YASSSS thk u sooooooooo much!!!! cant wait for the explained video!!! u r the man SuperHorrorBro!
MIKE I WAS WAITING FOR U TO PLAY THIS 😭😭
I don't think he was worried about his reputation to such a point that it was why he let Jimmy crash the ship. I think he genuinely cared for Anya and her situation but also cared too much about Jimmy when he shouldn't have. to the point he enabled Jimmy because he just wanted to give him a second chance to redeem himself rather than out of lack of care for Anya and her situation.
Coupled with other issues like how it is VERY hard to cut off close friends after they did something as horrific. People always say how the second someone close to them has done something wrong, they would cut them off from their lives completely, when in reality, most reactions would be a combination of shock that someone they knew would do such a thing, followed by denial that they did it. And if you are really close, even if they deserve whatever punishment they get, you would dread at the idea that the person you at one point shared a drink with, went to Karaoke with, took the time out of your day to make feel better, is now going to the electric chair even if it's for an action, they themselves are responsible for.
furthermore, I think the reason why Curly let Jimmy crash the ship was simply because even after what Jimmy has done, he never expected him to do it. Jimmy not only gaslit him into believing that the Assault was all Curly's fault, but acted like he was a good friend by acting as if Jimmy could take responsibility. looking at Curly at that moment, I could almost hear Curly's thoughts going "... there's no way he's going to crash the ship, he knows what he's doing... right...?" So when he does end up leading the ship to crash, he flips out, and that was the moment Curly realize that he's best friends with a monster... but that was too late, he ends up taking the responsibility for both Jimmy's actions for assaulting Anya and trying to kill everyone and his own actions for ignoring all the warning signs... kinda like what he did in his one dream sequence.
This isn't me justifying his actions, he was still wrong to think that a man like Jimmy was redeemable and shouldn't have let him run off and crashed the ship like he did.
