What I noticed is Manly never has sponsors. I'm sure plenty of people offered by now, but Manly is such a bad ass that he focuses on the gaming like the hero he is
Actually he did some sponsor of horror game i forgot .. oh also he sponsor a mobile game Food Fantasy i still remember that very clearly since i replayed the game now this year lol
"When you get too many people in the VOID, you get a traffic jam in the lower organ." Wonderful obversation. But I disagree about the game, it wasn't horrifying at all. Like I get that it's an extended depiction of mob mentality, which is horrifying in real life, but the game itself just amused me.
A group of people following the herd and experiencing bad things… sounds just like the movie Kids! Running animations remind me of the way the little goblins run in The Gate.
I dunno if anyone here is into interpretative speculation (if that's even the proper term), though I feel it's about group think like manly said. Within the game, everyone seems to want to abide by the crowd while trying to refrain from taking charge for the most part. The few exceptions, people bicker of "this way" or "that way" instead of allowing others doing things their way. When someone does something against the mold, everyone keeps their distance. Does anyone have any alternate interpretation, examples that could contradict my interpretation, or further elaborations they feel they can point out?
@@alexthefembunny4577 japan could potentially work for that since they value society above family and individuals. It's my understanding they usually give reasoning behind their actions though, so I'm uncertain if it's an apt 1:1 comparison, though I can see it to some regard.
While I get the symbolism behind the game, the graphics somehow made me think of the little humans as sperm deciding which way to go (“up” or “down”) as well as which sperm should enter the “void” to where the egg is. Whelp my mind has led to a really weird place.
@@mv9814 It's about hive mind. How people follow the majority and don't think for themselves. But I honestly think about the sperm interpretation more lol.
I mean, there's obviously that adage about "if your friends jumped off a cliff", but I think that's a red herring here, since it's repeatedly shown jumping off a cliff is a completely safe activity in this world. I don't even think these guys feel pain. While I do think this is about groupthink, obviously, I think the real message can be most clearly seen in that swimming segment where you controlled the line, as not only had all those people broken the original groupthink, but then they found a new one in eachother with something no other segment had; a defined leader. But not only that, it was a higherarchical leader position that when one part of the group is separated from the rest (something it seems like the game forces to happen, I think), a new leader instantly leads then back to the right path. I have no clue what that means, but it definitely said something.
The monochromatic color palette and animation style reminds me a lot of the rusty lake games! idk wether or not you've played them, but they're really fun and kinda creepy!
I know the point is group think and that they are only going into the void because everyone else is but I can't stop thinking of it as the void being fun as hell and they love it
I dunno why I needed this but thanks. Also, I love you, you've done such a great job I am so proud of you! I'm an old mom with no chicks in the nest so it's a genuine 'mom proud'
This is strangely cute. It would only be a tad horrifying if there's a real life adaptation of this. Much more if it was in real life. Even more so if in the ever growing crowd and forced to jump into that hole.
This actually reminds me a lot of Botanicula, Chuchel, Happy Game, and other works by Amanita Designs. Surreal and unsettling, more of an experience than a game.
My cat watched this whole video! When all the people were running off to the right side of the screen, he got up and tried to see where they were going.
The kids in the game didn't just follow the heard, manly ended up doing it too. Start of game: no don't fall, no don't throw yourself in the pit. End game: everyone in the pit now, hurry up, Oooo I can make them fall faster.
maybe it is because it is that time of year again™, but this game reminds me of some arthouse oscar nominated animated short film that's a commentary on a deep and troubling aspect on today's society. i swear i've seen something that looks like this on the film tube/film twitter side of things lmao
i watched that animation for one of my art classes back in college and i cannot for the life of me remember what it's called and it's bothering me so much!! but i'm glad at least someone knows what im talking about! i wish i knew what it was. i have no idea how to even search for it
"Man, KIDS are so weird " "no What! not children, KIDS" "no not litttle children i mean KIDS" "I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST KIDS I MEAN THE GAME" "Finally you understand ,i meant the game named KIDS"
This game is reminiscent of how a lot of people are these days. "I support the current thing the telly told me to!" Really it's a pretty fun game. Manly is one of the best LPers. I remember when he used to collab with Mangaminx :)
I have Anxiety and don't really like being in a crowd or follow the flock. Beside I rather be that one person who said f*(% this and decide his own fate.
prefer pressure and anxiety..? anxiety from the constant travel through the stomach - or maybe something to do with authority? specially bc the person playing the power to direct a lot of people
Just played the Boogie Man and im so happy to see that you're still around, and doing preety good as i see congrats, do you stiil have contact with anyone of that crew? Loved your voice acting btw you really have a strong voice
Welcome to the I'm Just Kidding Club, how I'm Just Kidding are ya?
Ive been waiting for this
Hi
I'm not kidding. Ha.
Day 6 of asking Manly to play A Cold Love Story
Finally it's here
*Suspicious link*
"If your friends jumped off a cliff would you do it too?!" The Game
(Edited for grammar)
“yes”
I always say I’d lead them when someone asks this
no i would not.
he killed himself why would i?
Peer pressure.
Answer: Yes because they're all dead now and I'm lonely
Joke btw
I love the footstep sounds and how each person looks.
it is some good asrm
" each person " lol this games art is pretty neat , very familiar to another art style I can't remember the name of
They're kids, they aren't person s
@@marianocolsin8968 this just in: kids are not people.
Each person? You mean everyone right?
This game is weirdly nostalgic now lol seeing manly play it now is wild
Look like plug and play
Is it the same developer?
@@sebastianthegoat4265 yup! Same dev I think
it reminds me of that plug game, like a human figure with a plug head
it's fucking neptunia innit
What I noticed is Manly never has sponsors. I'm sure plenty of people offered by now, but Manly is such a bad ass that he focuses on the gaming like the hero he is
I've had a few for some games here and there but they can be counted on one to two hands over the span of almost 7000 videos.
I don't think there is anything wrong with having sponsors as long as it doesnt affect the quality of the content? but i get what you mean o3o
Actually he did some sponsor of horror game i forgot .. oh also he sponsor a mobile game Food Fantasy i still remember that very clearly since i replayed the game now this year lol
Thank god you dont sponsor raid shadow legends
Considering how much Manly loves money, that is pretty heroic.
"When you get too many people in the VOID, you get a traffic jam in the lower organ."

I don't like crowds. Or traffic.

or lines.
@@ManlyBadassHero you hearted your own comment. Lol
@@uncharacteristic_invalid2679 Well, 'tis a good comment. xD I hate crowds myself.
Apparently you are lucky you don't havr phobias
@@blatantslander Who doesn't have phobias? xD
This and "Plug and Play" are some of the most bizarre art experiences I've seen/played from this creator, but they're always so oddly captivating
Thank you I've been sitting here for ten minutes trying to name that fever dream of a game
I knew this seemed to have a familiar feel
Thank you for reminding me of the other game's name, I couldn't for the life of me remember it
“It’s fine I’m saving you all!”
*still falls into the void*
I really really wish we could see Manly's face/reaction as he's playing this.
A rare facecam moment with Manly and his confusion.
Has he ever shown his face? At all?
@@nobody4404 Multiple times, but normally at the end of videos, rather than as a facecam video.
Though he has done facecam vids before.
@@nobody4404 He has posted his face quite a bit on Insta tbh
@@nobody4404 his AO ONI videos, he's using a facecam while playing
@@nobody4404 he’s had full videos of his face along with having end monologues that show his face.

Was my thoughts too. the game title is probably a dig at how kids (and modern adults these days) think.
So basically Japan?
@@alexthefembunny4577 japan could potentially work for that since they value society above family and individuals. It's my understanding they usually give reasoning behind their actions though, so I'm uncertain if it's an apt 1:1 comparison, though I can see it to some regard.
@@sunbeames I'm not saying all of it the same. just mostly the people because of the expectations for jobs
@@alexthefembunny4577 ah. That is a topic I'm not too well informed on so I can't say.
Fascinating game. No idea if it’s about crowd psychology or the digestive system tho.
While I get the symbolism behind the game, the graphics somehow made me think of the little humans as sperm deciding which way to go (“up” or “down”) as well as which sperm should enter the “void” to where the egg is.
Whelp my mind has led to a really weird place.
Nice to see someone else thinks in sperm metaphors
I was looking for this🤣🤣 glad to know I'm not the only one 😌 it definitely gives off sperm and birth vibes
Same here.
Wait, it wasnt about that????😃
@@mv9814 It's about hive mind. How people follow the majority and don't think for themselves. But I honestly think about the sperm interpretation more lol.

*in unison* "We are all individuals".
That one guy: "I'm not!"
@@Lufia4 "Shhhh!"
"I'm not!"
This game pretty much describes how it feels to hear the last bell ring.
The monochromatic color palette and animation style reminds me a lot of the rusty lake games! idk wether or not you've played them, but they're really fun and kinda creepy!
I've played them before they are soooo goood
Ah, from the devs of that old game "plug and play"
Let me guess...this game is about One Piece isn’t it?
@@chilomine839 *I think it's about life*
Is it really from the same dev ? It really reminded me a lot of that game so it makes sense
@@Helmotz. if i remember correctly, yes.
@@FrostTheRedeemed interesting
Oh I remember this game, never expected to see it on here after all these years.
3:14 “It’s just like life.”
Yeah, I can totally see what this game is about. Thanks for the advice.
“And thank you for watching me play, kids”

I know the point is group think and that they are only going into the void because everyone else is but I can't stop thinking of it as the void being fun as hell and they love it
Somehow I have a feeling that if the voices weren't children's voices, it would be a lot creepier.
completely agree.

Manly: If other kids jump into a hole, are you?
Kids: Y E S
This game has a deep, meaningful and accurate message shown through symbolism…
…
Whatever it is
Conformity
This is strangely cute.
It would only be a tad horrifying if there's a real life adaptation of this.
Much more if it was in real life.
Even more so if in the ever growing crowd and forced to jump into that hole.
parent: "Yeah but would you jump off a cliff just because your friend did?"
"Yes." - these people probably
I'm glad they finally gave Legion from Castlevania its own game

Manly sounds relaxed in this video it’s always comforting to hear.
was surprised to see this wasn't made by the same creators as Plug & Play. The structure seems so similar.
it is
it was made by the same people
people's reaction to the esophagus part will never not be funny
my ears enjoyed this so much, it sounds like raindrops on a roof.
This actually reminds me a lot of Botanicula, Chuchel, Happy Game, and other works by Amanita Designs. Surreal and unsettling, more of an experience than a game.
lol, i love how Manly just finds himself in a new, strange situation and then instantly adapts to it

My cat watched this whole video! When all the people were running off to the right side of the screen, he got up and tried to see where they were going.
Saw the thumbnail and thought Kikuo uploaded another music video lol.
The kids in the game didn't just follow the heard, manly ended up doing it too. Start of game: no don't fall, no don't throw yourself in the pit. End game: everyone in the pit now, hurry up, Oooo I can make them fall faster.
This game is actually about crowds and what kind of crowds exists and bunch of other stuff you can do with crowds.
Yes my favorite thing to do is jump into a hole and get vored with my buds
This game really reminds me of that saying "If your friend jumped off a bridge, would you do the same?"
*Ready for this emotional journey of stick figures*
11:42 “Yeah I watch anime, what are you going to do about it?” Dumbledore asked calmly.
I love the "yeah I watch anime, what you gonna do about it" as the people part for his person
Not even 3 minutes in and the game is just.... ruthlessly suggestive and worrying lol.
& I'm sorry for this but man, you can tell they didn't drink much mountain dew growing up having that high of a count.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember watching Jacksepticeye play this game ages ago!!
Same here.
A game where I’m around people already sounds terrifying on its own
Pathetic
Reminds me a lot of the art game Plug and Play, I wonder if they're by the same people actually.
Was thinking that too
They are, I think.
it is made by the same person/people
When I see this game I think about one quote “gotta find your own crowd”
An art house style experience. Definitely weird, but I did enjoy it.
Can we talk about how good the animation is?
This really says a lot about society.
15:30 Undertale fans when they find out that Mt.Ebott exists in real life:
Wow. The subtitles just did you dirty, called you Mainly Badass Zero
This was a strangely calming game.
Was all of that about sperm finding its way to the womb-
They really do be living in a society 💀💀
This and 'Plug and Play'... make me wanna be hiiiiiiigh.
Void Organ. I will keep this in mind for future visits to the void. Keep exploring hero, ManlyBadassHero.
a nostalgic classic! i also recommend Plug and Play!
Do not have the culture level to understand this piece! But I must say I did find it positively terrifying!
i feel like this is showing how mob mentality and peer pressure works
This gave me so much nostalgia from when Mark played it
11:41 HAHA I know these games have a deep simbolisms or whatever, but I only watch them for the visual asmr 😁
"Kids are cruel, Jack"
And I’m very in TOUCH with my inner
C H I L D
"If your friends jumped off a cliff, would you?" Apparently yes.
Now I’m always up for some highbrow art, but I think this is a little *too* highbrow for my brain-
It's the surprised and confused highbrow.
I watched this blazed at 1 in the morning & thoroughly enjoyed it. Weird. Good weird.
Plug and play is made by the same people.
And there is only some human centipede stuff.
This game reminds me of Fly Guy, that old Flash browser experience. I think Manly would really enjoy it!

"We can really pump the people trough" Manly - 2022
WOW. An art game! Kudos to the devs.
Non-Fans: *points to dislike button* "This way."
Me and other fans: *points to like button* "No this way."
(why did I make this??? Idk.)
Refreshing to see an absurd, yet compelling setup for one of these games that doesn't just lazily devolve into creepy pasta glitching.
gotta love the audible heartbeat in the void-ussy
Uhhhhh, i dont think my philosophy teacher taught me how to understand this.
7:36 Middle schoolers coming up with a come back
Reminds me of the art that the Vocaloid producer Kikuo does.
Forms doing things in a formless void. I suppose it means something; just don't know what it is.
I’m sure the deep message and subtexts in this game are great, but I just like looking at it
This is just a simplified mystery flesh pit
this felt like a fever dream
Finally Manly got a chance to traumatize himself with this game!
Can't wait for the sequel, Kids with Guns.
So just American public school?
Really nice Gorillaz song
imo KIDS is a story about fitting in with others (i played it back when it came out, love it)
maybe it is because it is that time of year again™, but this game reminds me of some arthouse oscar nominated animated short film that's a commentary on a deep and troubling aspect on today's society.
