PATREON : www.patreon.com/maraganger TWITTER : twitter.com/maraganger Sorry for the delay on this one ! Took a couple of days off since my gf's visiting Canada. Hope you enjoy regardless ! B)
The biggest surprise about this is that it was free! It's nothing short of mind-blowing to see so many cool concepts all packaged together by a community that clearly is looking out for each other, bundled together in the meta game-within-a-game experience. Another lovely video showcasing the bleeding edge of concept and execution in a genre that, in many ways, can be rather saturated and samey. Definitely going to check this out soon!
"Arcade Woah!!!" was specifically built for the DD. I got asked to make it cause the project lead wanted an arcade flavored secret game, and I already had already made the "Super Asteroids" cabinet. I certainly intend to make more cabinets in future, expand the concept. At the very least I'd like to fix up the two unplayables in the current arcade before I release "Vladimere's Lhore", but we'll see if there is time. I gotta get a whole Madvent out first!
Aw hell yeah, can't wait to see this year's Madvent. Last year's was hella good, though I hope this doesn't put too much pressure on your shoulders ! ; w ;
So happy to see you cover haunted ps1 again!! Great job as always!! I think my favorite from those games has to be they speak from the abyss, dead letter department and 10 dead doves!!
This was definitely worth the wait, Mara! Looking at Haunted PS1's work was how I found your channel last year, and now we're jumped into the Spectral Mall! I was waiting for the new EEK3 to drop anytime during the summer of this year, and now that it has, I was rather impressed and chilled with how insane that presentation was! Featuring cameos by streamers of various games, great trailers and well done animations for the interstitial material! I enjoyed watching it through! Now I get to see a well crafted video on the latest Demo Disc. Thank you!
I love how everything is spooky and retro and cool. It's as dark as I always remember PS1 games being, and as uncanny as it needs to be. Really hits the mark with the Terror themes
Great video. This was completely worth the wait. I really loved the last ps1 demo video you did. So its a real treat to see you do another one. The games looks so good.
On a long bus ride rn. Going home from visiting my big sister (who's basically my mom) and basically just a rough sad time. But listening to u talk abt literally anything makes me feel like I've just got a cool friend filling me in on shit we both like. Ur channel eats. Eternally. Thank you for your works.
Thank you genuinely for making this video, I would never have heard of this beforehand. The "hub" area really reminds me of those Namco Museum series of games back in the 90s. I really loved how that game had an actual teeny virtual museum for the games included in each disc. I'm excited to play these games and eventually play their full releases.
sick vid as always, and just in time for the spooky season! on the sidest of the side notes, I got this creepy ass ad which was just a 2 minute music video of an offbrand Furby looking thing in various locations. All of the text and lyrics were written in comic sans, and the link to the website just said "Let him in"..... uhhhh, very fitting I guess lol
You are now my best friend, you like chulip!! When i was 15 i used to be one of the top contributors for the chulip wiki! my parents actually bought it for me at gamestop when i was like 7, it was really scary as a kid lol i was especially afraid of the doctor who took your blood at night. But now its one of my favorite games ever, I tell so many people about it!!
Very cool video as always! I don't know if this counts as a spoiler... but let's say that you may get a chance to look at those WIP shots from Sauna2000 within that very demo XP If you have good "musical" memory, you will find an extremely cool surprise there too. My mind got blown away when I connected the dots.
I just binged your entire channel over the last two weeks. Really love your stuff, I feel a million times more educated on the genre of "innocuous on the surface, but secretly horrifying" indie games. I also always love to see more fellow Canadian content creators. Really looking forward to future videos, keep the awesome content up!
while not being my favorite Collection, it's quite fun given when it's working and doesn't glitch out, didn't played ALL games but i did enjoyed quite a few. I'm happy a new video's out, amazing stuff as usual.
I'm really glad to hear you liked Sorry, We're Open! Have you played Oates' other games? They all have a really unique vibe, and more of that great pixel art style.
I have but they didn't resonate with me as much as this one. Though I'm a sucker for their general style, very whimsical in a way and I love the atmosphere they set.
All the games this year looked so stellar! I'm glad to hear that dead letter department shaped up to be such a lovely experience as well- Real talk though, I wish the internet looked like future reality, it's bad enough the game's lore gives me strong evangelion vibes, but the style is downright intoxicating to the eyes. Also ooo oo oo, I see you, I see you Mara with that dank ass pateron intermission screen

Repairing ships with meat reminds me of the Night's Dawn trilogy where the Edenists have living ships that give birth to new ships.
Great vid!

really good video
Man, I love spooktember!
Catch me next year doing September, October and November of spooky games to make up for this year lmaO
