I know its a weird observation to make but its strangely refreshing to have a RPG maker game that uses pixel art with normal (well... for anime at least) proportions instead of like the chibi type sprites pretty much every other game uses. Wish more games would try stuff like that.
Late ti the party but, that's the thing about perspective. If the spite is faced straight to the camera, it'll look out of place with the environment and can look stiff. These kind of sprites are normally used in 2d planes and not for slight top-down perspectives, which are used in almost every RPG game. The head is bound to look a bit bigger if you're looking from a bird-perspective
@@TomTom-wn3xn Ehhh this definitely looks more proportional than the typical big-headed anime sprites used do. The increase in head size is far larger than the perspective would merit.
I mean Thats basically all Junji Ito protagonists. "Oh no my uncle has been force feeding me grease in my sleep. Better stay at home". "Oh no my town Is literally becoming a spiral hell. Better stay here and not escape like I originally planned". "Oh no my girlfriend wants to go into those human shaped holes in the mountains. Better stay near them".
My lazy and anxious butt would've just left up the planks, relocked the door and left that room as it was, especially if I saw some creepy light in the other window.
Characters in horror ANYTHING got me feeling like a fucking genius, now if you'll excuse me i'm gonna make sure I got my windows locked, closets checked, doors locked, bat next to me, and a bottle of pepper spray with me while I sleep like a goddamn princess
Despite the game being only in black and white, I'm actually liking it and really looking forward to the rest. I really like RPG Maker horror games, simple graphics and they normally have a good story. They're even better when Manly plays them!
_You get what you pay for_ Cheap houses are cheap for reasons. Also, windows boarded up for reasons. Reminded me very much of Junji Ito's The Window Next Door in a very good way!! Looking forward to endings.
ODST HAZARD Without spoiling, the stories are similar, but was a young man & his parents in the original manga & a different ending. But the look of the monster, tho similar, was much more horrible in Junji Ito story. It was a quick short one & worth reading just for monster! This had the same kind of quiet, tense build-up & was very well done. I liked this game.
NaturalFlirtGamer. I had read the story after watching both videos. I like the game more, thought it was scarier. The story was cool though and the ending was great.
Renegade Hero I think the game expanded the idea very nicely. I loved the original short story because it was just totally creepy with that end bulge! And of course, the art is kind of incomparable. I am huge fan of Junji Ito's work - Tomie is another favorite.
This is a really well-made RPG Horror game so far, I'm really liking the look of it. I can see why Junji Ito was the main inspiration for this game, his works are utterly terrifying and leaves a lasting impression on you.
I agree, I very much enjoy how subtle most of the references are. The fishing manual was a particularly delicate reference to Gyo, which considering its subject matter, is difficult enough to pull off without being heavy-handed.
I remember his one shot horror manga about a neighbor, she also tries to get into the protagonist's room. it's so scary and this game reminds me much to it
All like "ehh it must be the wind.... and all of those footprints must've been made by a bird or a shark.” Edit; I’m surprised by the number of idiots who replied that took what I said seriously.
"'It's already late. how long was I in there?' ...one minute." that just made me laugh so hard. XD time sure flies by when you're trying to find something.
Rewatching some old videos now that Manly's hit a million subscribers and goodness gracious, I can't believe that this video has been out for 5+ years already. It really doesn't feel like it's aged badly, it's almost like it aged like fine wine lol ! It really does feel nostalgic, I feel at peace despite it being a horror game
lol i just get startled easy at the slightest thing. despite that i love the horror genre because i love being scared. i don't have anything like a panic attack or heart attack, just a jump.
Ameute. If you liked this video, you should definitely check his videos on Alien Isolation, The Witches House, Vermintide, Nightcry and Aoni. They're fantastic!
Remember this game really spooking me back when I first watched the video years ago 😅 still is pretty creepy. So happy I found this channel again ♡ used to watch a few times a week. But at least now I have LOTS of stuff to catch up on. Always an upside :)
She has so damn guts to stay in this house after the night where the thing comes knocking on her door ! In her situation, I would have been crying my all body and quit the house as soon as morning would have come !x'D
Guts? No, I call it stupidity. It's a break in, and she is like... "It's fine no police required! It's ok to let someone bang on my door all night.." Horror movie stupidity at it's finest.
Hopefully you like cosmic horror. Some people can't get into it but his artwork paints a vivid picture. One of his one-shots "Glyceride" is some of the funniest shit and I have grossed out a couple of my friends showing them some scans on the face cheese part. Highly recommend starting with Uzumaki (spirals) or Tomie. Spirals has an actual ending but Tomie doesn't.
Junji Ito is, without a doubt, one of the best in horror. As another comment has suggested, start out with Tomie or Uzumaki, but I also recommend Lovesick Dead.
The main character never mentioned the widow to him. Just trying to get inside the room and finding the other tenants wallet. Omata knows what’s going on and pretty much sentenced her to death
I REALLY don't like where this is going. Idk what the flying fruity fuck that grandpa raisin is but you bet your ass if I see any creepy as fuck house next to one i wanted to buy I get the hell out of there pronto! That being said this simple horror is so effective because it could happen to you. Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta go make sure my aluminum bat is next to me and remind my wife not to get up in the middle of the night. God dammit XD.
Your voice is very reminiscent of Cry's, which I mean in a very good way. His voice is quite soothing, as is yours, though yours is much deeper (which is even better, honestly) I'm excited to see more of your videos!
@@minapazderak5867 Yes. It's a real shame that this sort of thing happens. Even if I don't watch him much, I'm usually like "Haha! No way that he would be this kind of person." But yeah, it sucks to see something like this.
Dagnabbit, that last part actually got me! Great game so far. Yeah, a little generic as far as the story goes, and your character is a little frustratingly stupid (SOMEONE IN HOUSE? OH DEAR, BETTER GO TO SLEEP AND NOT CALL ANYBODY), but somehow she remains likeable enough and the atmosphere is fantastic. It's a nice, slowburn to start up, but it also doesn't drag on and on. Can't wait for the next part!
To be fair, Name doesn't have a cellphone so she can't really call for help when she needs to, but she should've at least taken photos of the footprints as evidence.
A book with a chapter about spirals? Manly, I'm surprised you didn't point out that it could be a reference to another one of Junji Ito's works: "Uzumaki".
I was just about to mention something about this. Fucking Junji Ito... Always leaving so many goddamn questions. The monster dude kinda looks like the ones from The Enigma of Amigara Fault
I've never read any of Junji Ito's stories, but this is making me think I need to check them out. Really good so far. The monster genuinely scared me, and I like the Gameboy style presentation so far.
*I've been here since you had 2k subs man. Holy shit you've grown a lot these couple of years. I remember watching you play Yanderella in 2014 and that was what got me attracted to your channel. Thank you for staying awesome and keep playing these horror rpgs ;) Stay safe!* *- Djuncle*
YES I FOUND IT! Okay so I remember playing this before I knew what a Junji Ito is. Years after I finished the game I read "The Neighbor's Window" and I was like "didn't I play a game like this?" so I've been looking for that game and I found it! I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!
I've watched the playthrough of this game.. like.. so many times.. and it still scares me more like anything else.. so well done. * . * Thank you for playing it!
This is one of ths creepiest games I've seen in a while, yet it's so simple! Really well-done to the dev(s) on the execution and not rushing things too much.
You think Namie would question why that one room was locked and that particular window was boarded up. Personally, I'm paranoid myself but still! You would wonder what that sealed window is trying to keep out.
I just found this channel. Not many people have played this game which is to bad, it's quite good. But I'm glad too, I don't think I'd have found the channel without it. So I'm glad.
All these comments telling how scary the jumpscares are.... I'm gonna go turn on all the lights in my room and blast Power99 on the radio so I wont shit myself 😥😫😅😭
The way she tripped and caves her head in at the end has the same energy as that one important scientist in World War Z who trips and shoots himself in the head
Character: "Ah, looks like the wind blew the window open and knocked the vase off the drawer." 11th Doctor: "Yes. And it appears that the wind also undid the latch on the window. We have to leave. _N o w_ ."
Don't you just love dumb horror protagonists? "Oh no! Someone broke into my house! So anyway, I just decided to clean up their footprints removing the evidence."
The book being about spirals (and a bizarre fixation on their inner workings driving one to do totally insane things, like count the number of spiral-related words on a page) is one of the best, sliest homages I could have expected. This game is awesome. It hits that Junji Ito "quality realism + hyper-surreal scenarios" spot right in the center.
If I was renting a house with a room that was locked and the agency had no idea about it, I’d be pissed off that one of the rooms hadn’t been cleaned before I moved it. It’s just rude!
If someone or something in the next door threat you, trespassing your house, killed your girlfriend and ate her Normal people: Call the police People in this game: "Ehh Whatever, I'm just leave.. maybe tomorrow"
I know its a weird observation to make but its strangely refreshing to have a RPG maker game that uses pixel art with normal (well... for anime at least) proportions instead of like the chibi type sprites pretty much every other game uses. Wish more games would try stuff like that.
AlienGuy Gallant
I agree with the sentiment. The usual RPGMaker chibi thing detracts from the atmosphere more often than not.
I feel like the characters are a bit too tall though

For people who interested, name of that story is "The Window Next Door".
Thanks man, you're comment saved me the trouble of having to find it.
I haven’t watched the full video yet but I’m guessing the locked up stuff and no windows is because of stuff not to happen after the main story
Reminds me of something Junji Ito would write.
When she called her mom, I was immediately reminded of the awful mom in Paranoiac. I was somehow reassured by how nice Namie's mom is, lol
Omg saaaame! Though I was totally expecting Namie's mom to be douchy too but I was pleasantly surprised.
It's funny that I'm seeing this comment after coming here right after watching Manly's Paranoiac playthrough.
funny, that's the exact same thought I had as well
The main character is the most idiotic person ever. "Oh someone broke into my home I'll just not call the police and totally forget that it happened."
I mean Thats basically all Junji Ito protagonists.
"Oh no my uncle has been force feeding me grease in my sleep. Better stay at home".
"Oh no my town Is literally becoming a spiral hell. Better stay here and not escape like I originally planned".
"Oh no my girlfriend wants to go into those human shaped holes in the mountains. Better stay near them".
julie martinez It's called Glyceride.
Another cute Junji Ito story is "The Hanging Balloons". Check it out, you won't be disappointed!
Was it not her father? Instead of her uncle.
Also, she wasn't his girlfriend.
king ra Yep! Junji Ito in a nutshell! Still love him though.
"Don't trip over that's really cliche--------" *trips*
They newer learn
My lazy and anxious butt would've just left up the planks, relocked the door and left that room as it was, especially if I saw some creepy light in the other window.
I would just think it was a tv screen.
Yay for laziness, am I right? Sometimes it even saves lives XD
Fishfae I wouldn't have touched it to begin with.
Don't forget Holy water, and salt.
Some silver lining would help too
Characters in horror ANYTHING got me feeling like a fucking genius, now if you'll excuse me i'm gonna make sure I got my windows locked, closets checked, doors locked, bat next to me, and a bottle of pepper spray with me while I sleep like a goddamn princess

Baldy Pain Is it b&w or different shades of green?
I guess it can be called monochromatic, not so much black and white

I can see why Junji Ito was the main inspiration for this game, his works are utterly terrifying and leaves a lasting impression on you.
'Can you contact the previous tennent?'
'...'
He's deeeeeead
I knew this had a Junji ito vibe just from reading the title. So glad that I was right
And I like the other subtle references to his works, like the section in the math book being about spirals
I agree, I very much enjoy how subtle most of the references are. The fishing manual was a particularly delicate reference to Gyo, which considering its subject matter, is difficult enough to pull off without being heavy-handed.
The names too. Namie in particular, but also Hanae, recalls to mind Tomie.
THIS GAME WAS MADE FOR ME!
I remember his one shot horror manga about a neighbor, she also tries to get into the protagonist's room. it's so scary and this game reminds me much to it

if you're sensitive to even the tiniest of jumpscares, watch out for the end.

lol i just get startled easy at the slightest thing. despite that i love the horror genre because i love being scared. i don't have anything like a panic attack or heart attack, just a jump.
Julian Dicks that made me jump and I NEVER have jumped IN A LONG TIME.
That girl knocked herself out like a bad horror cliche. :)
I think this is the first time I've heard Manly sound legit scared. Also what a cliff hanger!
Ameute. If you liked this video, you should definitely check his videos on Alien Isolation, The Witches House, Vermintide, Nightcry and Aoni. They're fantastic!
Ameute. Also The Survey got him pretty freaked.
The Survey had that one scare (he could have token her! Anyone would have been scared!). This was more of a... I'm going to have nightmare scared.
Ameute. True. I think the only other times I heard him that scared were Witches House and Alien. Can't blame him, that face made my heart skip beats!

Au man, fuck that thing, it was so simple but yet so efective, now i remember why i quit Uzumaki....
That Junji Ito Story was incredible, just read it 2 or 3 Weeks ago, so this Video fits just perfect :)
I'm familiar with this particular Junji Ito story too. It freaked me out for days. >
Ohhh my goodness those last few minutes. o__o
my open windows only bring in bugs →_→ but still, that's way better than that…thing.
I'm gonna need to research this Junji Ito guy. Sounds like he could really help feed my hard on for horror.
please do, legit one of the best if not the best when it comes to horror manga!
Hopefully you like cosmic horror. Some people can't get into it but his artwork paints a vivid picture.

as soon as the I read the notebook of warnings, and then the see the window open, I would be gone.
I mean, I get that Omata was trying to help with the window and all, but _how did he know about it?_
I notice that too and found it really creepy. This is getting weird.
MadmanEpic probably a glitch tbh xD

"Oh no! Someone broke into my house! So anyway, I just decided to clean up their footprints removing the evidence."
I remember watching this gameplay, it ended up making me terrified to sleep at night because my bed is right next to the window.
Same, now that you mention it. I have a huge window right next to my bed... Well, it's a good thing I'm paranoid and lock it every night
When the jumpscare happened I flinched, and my cat flinched too and ran away clawing my foot in the process. Ouch.
So spoopy, looking forward to the next part
The book being about spirals (and a bizarre fixation on their inner workings driving one to do totally insane things, like count the number of spiral-related words on a page) is one of the best, sliest homages I could have expected.
This game is awesome. It hits that Junji Ito "quality realism + hyper-surreal scenarios" spot right in the center.
Had to smile upon the mention of "spirals", as Junji Ito did create a series called "Uzumaki" (spiral).
If I was renting a house with a room that was locked and the agency had no idea about it, I’d be pissed off that one of the rooms hadn’t been cleaned before I moved it. It’s just rude!
The art style and the overall aesthetic of the game really reminded me of that pink red riding hood you played a while ago
Ugh… I love Junji Ito 😩 Really cool game based on a great episode, keeping a black & white style was the right move 👏
That ending swap is amazing, even in 2021!
With the consciousness fading away and to an end-card!
