Well, that's something that makes a jumpscare scary, knowing that it's going to come, but sometimes not knowing when! It can really increase anxiety and make it pretty scary sometimes, take FNAF for example, let's say FNAF 2, you know that you are about to get killed by withered bonnie, but it's still scary!
If you like puzzles like this, you should play "Viewfinder". It's the same style where you place pictures too but, minus the horror. It's a sci-fi theme and got an amazing graphics!
i think that this copied viewfinder, because the mechanics are almost exactly the same and even the camera animation, but one has a clear, concrete story while this one has no voice acting and limited colors Edit: i just found out that this took inspiration from viewfinder so..
@@boazray608yeah it says on the download page this was just an experiment to try and replicate the mechanics and was heavily inspired as you found out, i dont think it was malicious as this game is free and blatantly states it was based off viewfinder even though mat didnt know while playing
I'm honestly really sad that it's the mascot games that do so well. A while back you started to play Rusty Lake and I am still hoping you'll pick it up again. The overarching storyline between the games is really great.
This is the first I’ve seen this requested or heard of it, but I loved watching mat play what remains of Edith finch and I’d love more from that world!
In context to the content list... Mat should definitely check out the 'Magnus Archives'. A new series is up and coming, so going through the old one would be a good opportunity. There's soo much Lore! ( This is definitely not a joke about how late Mat is to cover series ;0 )
I could always do with more tma content in my life! I would love to see what type of theory mat could come up with about it (especially since it has a huge community already)
Yeah this game immediately made me think of Michael Distortion 😂 But which channel would a podcast like that fit? Also, if you like this liminal stuff, like, check out the Podcast Mistholme Museum 💙
I am sad that this channel hasn't done more with the Cube Escape/Rusty Lake series. I started tuning in because of it and it seemed like yall were gonna do more. I've enjoyed everything thats been behind these videos (great personalities, good communication, a regular change of pace). But it sounded like you were gonna play more Rusty Lake stuff and I just haven't seen it. Please keep up the good work.
Doesn't Killer Frequency already tell you the whole lore if you explore the office enough without having to theorise? Or am I just thinking of a different game?
Viewfinder is the original source. KenForest even mentioned it in the note for anyone to read it and check it out. But, it felt like some people didn't all read it. It kinda concerns me that an original source didn't seem to get as much attention as a game with copied and experimented mechanics.
YES ASH!!! Lion King 1 1/2 with its Who Wants to Be A Millionaire mini game was so great! And the "Disney Ride" Timon and Pumbaa took Timon's mom and uncle on was fantastic too. This was amazing, dizzying, and horrifying. I will never look at mirrors or picture frames the same again.
Though I believe Ash was in another video, now that she was in a video for longer I have a very different version of her in my head. She used to look like a shadow in my mind- powerful and intelligent. Now she's still powerful and intelligent but an actual human!
Oh my goodness, I literally squealed when MatPat mentioned Taskmaster and that he's a big fan! I would love to see Matt do the tasks. For some reason I get Ed Gamble vibes, but I don't know, MatPats brain versus Alex's would be awesome!
You guys should do a food theory about the best flavour of gum/tic tac! Like which makes ur breath smell the best, what is generally the most liked, how much sugar/artificial flavour it has and the best texture! Also settle the orange tic-tac thing (Ash’s gf was so right for that, orange tic-face are amazing 😭😭 stop the slander)
Watching these videos feels quite a bit different now that I know the face to associate with Ash's voice. No she isn't just MatPat's amazing ventriloquist abilities.
@@issy5122 Last I checked Ash actually goes by She/They (or They/She, not sure)! Unless they removed the "she" part sometime lately? You can be non binary and still use binary pronouns like he and she :]
Matpat has GOT to play viewfinder, the game that inspired this one. Viewfinder is more thought out and is generally more well-polished (not to undermine the effort that has went into Liminal Gallery, as this is also a great game but was the developer's way of testing themselves to see if they could recreate that photo recreation feature of Viewfinder)
Since you liked this game, you should definitely play Viewfinder, it has the same concept, but is a more "finished" game, with some lore to it as well I also would like to see Matt play Chants of Sennaar, I think it fits perfectly with his style
I have watched 3 different people play this and I love the creativity each one showed to solve these puzzles as most of the time there were 3 unique solutions.
You should play the game Killer Frequency. You play as a radio host and have to help people calling in to escape a killer on the loose. It's kinda similar to Do you copy?, but a bit longer and more exploration. It's very fun!
In regards to the interwctive DVD menus, the one the stands out the most to me was the first Harry Potter movie on DVD; its the only one i can remember having different clues and easter eggs based on what you click and where, taking you to secret features and extra screens.
Those interactive special DVD-exclusive contents are gold! That Shrek one is so cool! Theyre rough aeound the edges, but hey But if they started doing that again in this modern era, I doubt it would have the same reception(given the fact it was only so-so even at the time)
It’s so hard watching someone do a puzzle game and doing it “right” but also making it way harder than it needs to be. Matt you were looking so hard for these crazy ways to solve some puzzles that you missed such simple solutions. You’re looking to hard.
Oh my goodness, MatPat completely failing to understand the room at around 23 minutes was infuriating. If you're looking up and the room is upside down, then it becomes right-side up when pointed downwards! And again at 26 minutes, all he had to do was rotate and position, not try creating a bridge, instantly knew what was going on there. 4 minutes to figure out a 20 second puzzle. I don't get how someone who's so capable of looking for hidden details struggles with this stuff. DX
I wonder if you can take pictures of the film canisters to make infinite film. Seems like it should work, so long as the original isn't overwritten, it can be photo graphed and a room could be infinitely expanded to keep taking pictures of film, posting pictures of film in newly created space from earlier photos.
so are we all gonna just forget the absolute slander of orange tic-tacs??? my jaw dropped when they tore apart my favorite candy. not funny, cried. lol
the way that ash just opened a core memory by mentioning the millionaire game on lion king 1 1/2 (not to mention the hidden mickey and the safari guide thing too) the House of Villains movie for house of mouse had a trivia game too
I would like to recommend playing a nancy drew game. Especialy now that they are making a small arg for their next game. They are detective point and click games. I would specifically recommend the ghost of Thornton hall. It's an amazing game, and I would love to see your reaction to it.😊
It feels like you have to play viewfinder, awesome game using similar "liminality" ideas. And there you can reset just one action and not a full level so it is less tedious
Y'all should watch the "The Oldest View" series by kane pixels. It's unrelated to the backrooms, but another great piece of horror media involving liminal spaces. (Once again, not related to the backrooms)
when it comes to dvd being used for a type of horror gerne, analog horror already steals the cursed sound that CDs and DVD would make when they had too many scratches
MattPat, If you are looking for a DVD/digital horror-like game you should play “Immortality”. It is mature and not really stream friendly, but it is so up your alley.
I loved this video, it was super fun and put a smile on my face, like it always does. Thank you for always being here with such fun and entertaining content! Thank you, for everything you do. It means a lot. ❤
@@friendlyneighbourhoodashI will be fine, I’m working through everything and he and the channels have just been a huge inspiration and have been helping for over 9 years, thank you for asking. No one does. Thank you. ❤

Its insane how old disney dvds had games on them, the one's i can remember are an eye spy game from Mary Poppins and some other games on Barbies the 12 dancing princess.
ty ash for bringing up the lion king 1.5 games that existed. i used to stay up late as well playing thru all the different combinations for the ride game. dvd games were on a different level...maybe yall shld play them
The "Don't Blink" episode was the Memento of Doctor Who. When Sally finally put the easter egg clues together and then the dude with her filled out the transcipt convo.. I miss that level of writing in DW
Mat you should play Time is Solid Here!! Its an amazing game, a bit liminal, has elements of horror, and in my opinion its quite unique! If you do get around to playing it I hope you enjoy it, its one of my all time favorites !

@matpat
I'm honestly really sad that it's the mascot games that do so well. A while back you started to play Rusty Lake and I am still hoping you'll pick it up again. The overarching storyline between the games is really great.
Oh my gosh rusty lake was my whole childhood!!
Video 12 of asking Mat to play “The Unfinished Swan”. It gives more story to one of the characters in “What Remains of Edith Finch”.
That game is unique and interesting to play.
boost!!
Yes please!
This is the first I’ve seen this requested or heard of it, but I loved watching mat play what remains of Edith finch and I’d love more from that world!
That was my favorite game growing up!
In context to the content list...

Oh my goodness PLEASE!!
the og series would have been matpat's JAM when it was ongoing. I really hope he gets into the new one whe it comes out.
Yeah this game immediately made me think of Michael Distortion 😂

@@aceisaperson Honestly same, I was looking forward to more Rusty Lake
Same, I saw "horror puzzle game" and the thumbnail, and got excited thinking Rusty Lake was back.
Your the second person I've seen say that so far
3:00 it seems as if no one has told Mat about Digital Horror, the subgenere of stuff about early 2000's through late 2010's, stuffs great I recommend
Omg, I would love to see MatPat in TaskMaster it would be the collab of the ages
Games you should definitely play and theorize about.
1. In sound mind
2. Killer frequency
3. Cult of the lamb
4. Darkwood
5. Scp containment breach
Cult of the lamb would be fantastic! I'm also a HUGE fan of anything SCP.
Doesn't Killer Frequency already tell you the whole lore if you explore the office enough without having to theorise?
Or am I just thinking of a different game?
You should play Viewfinder, which I believe this game was based on. It has some super cool puzzles and mechanics.
There is another game a lot like this one called viewfinder. It also has hidden lore. Maybe Mat Pat can play it next.
This game was actually based on viewfinder!
@@rexraz3914 weird this one became popular before the original
Viewfinder is a crazy game
Viewfinder is the original source. KenForest even mentioned it in the note for anyone to read it and check it out. But, it felt like some people didn't all read it. It kinda concerns me that an original source didn't seem to get as much attention as a game with copied and experimented mechanics.
@@Envy1359 It worth the play through. Not to mention it is colorful compared to this dim imitation
i love that “guy at the end of the hallway” is never going to stop being scary
When I saw Mark play this, I thought OMG I want Mat to play this becuase they'd go about it SO DIFFERENTLY. And they do!!
Mat being a Taskmaster fan is so on brand! He would be fascinating to see in that environment
YES ASH!!! Lion King 1 1/2 with its Who Wants to Be A Millionaire mini game was so great! And the "Disney Ride" Timon and Pumbaa took Timon's mom and uncle on was fantastic too. This was amazing, dizzying, and horrifying. I will never look at mirrors or picture frames the same again.

I want to see Matt tap into the “non-Euclidean” genre. There’s a few gems out there like fragments of Euclid. Great puzzle game
I adore whichever editor or whoever loves orange tictacs enough to put it in the section title and risk their job.

The irony that I just finished rewatching his superluminal gameplays
I opened a pack of Orbit gum a minute before Ash mentioned they smelled Orbit gum. spooky

Dear author of the chapters, you're correct. Orange is the best.
Turning down Orange Tic Tacs in October? Very unspook-TAC-ular of you.
I’m kind of hoping that someday MatPat will play ViewFinder. It’s another perspective based game with hidden LORE
it's reassuring to know that MatPat also dreams about being a contestant on Taskmaster.
All the talk about orange tic tacs triggered a memory. There was a guy at my store who had a life size 3d tattoo of a pack of orange tic tacs 😂
Seeing Mat take a fnaf knowledge quiz would be really funny, or maybe reacting to one of ryetoasts theories could be cool as well.
And here I thought GTLive' go-to gaming bucket needs only one mandatory criteria; DEAD KIDS
Viewfinder is another fantastic perspective shifting game. Less creepy tho. There do be lore however
The fact that Matpat tried everything in the room with the steps, except continuing the steps. dwl.
