A little fun fact about Berly (and Van) having a dinosaur-like appearence: Kim and Vance's parents are divorced which means they both have their own room on their father's house. If you visit their father's house at faraway and go to their room, Kim's side of the room is full-filled with dinosaur related stuff and even a poster. My guess is, when Kim was younger she would be more open about her fixation on dinosaurs and that's why Sunny imagined Berly as such ^^
My guess that the hooligans that sunny were the closest to have more personality and generally feel more human while the less one represented as just one simple trait. For example kim who we know were close to aubrey so she must had some interaction with sunny and because of that she is the most developed character from headspace playground. Or something like that idk
If you tutor the two kids (Joy and Brent) and then do their worksheets on the second day, you can see them running around the playground similarly to Happy and Brows. This makes sense too with Joy's name being a synonym of 'happy' and Brent's sprite having thick eyebrows. Also in the birthday party side quest, Jesse mentions being friends of the two kids. So it's likely that he represents Bangs
My head canon is that Boss is ALSO based on someone Sunny knew as a kid. Most likely the local school/playground bully. They either moved away or don’t live in the part of town the game takes place in.
That is a good theory but I also think boss is kinda supposed to represent real world Aubrey. Of course Sunny doesn’t know what real world Aubrey looks like yet but the two of them share near identical color palettes and I think it’s kinda like foreshadowing.
i read a theory that sunny was jealous of kims close relationship with aubrey. sunny has a crush on aubrey, and maybe felt threatened by kim and aubrey being so close, so in headspace, he made aubrey and berly constantly bickering and acting like rivals.
wait that actually makes sense! i thought aubrey and berly not getting along was just how they were like back then, but neglected to consider that it’s all sunny’s fabrication. there’s really a lot of fascinating things you can analyze from headspace
Wow, this is another great video. I feel like it's important to note that the other playground characters come from Sunny's stuffed animals. (You can see the stuffed animals in one of the real world pictures in Basil's album.)
Considering that the slime girls and Humphrey who is the first thing sunny imagined im just assuming that sunny found a 18+ magazine under his parents bed or something
This is a wonderful video!! I like how you went into depth about the characters in the wiki, and just overall discuss about everyone's different counterpart in Headspace and Faraway! I really am hoping your channel get's more attention than currently! Youre heavily underrated, and wishing you the best for your RUclips journey!
You forgot one other character from playground: Boss. Boss's name in the files is Reckut, which has made some theorize him to be charlene's brother "Creepy guy" whose name is similarly found in the flies to be "Tucker". Considering Tucker's age relative to the others with headspace counterparts, its likely Sunny's interpretation of him as a "big scary guy" was inspired by them being an older kid and a general bully overall.
Neb is Ben backwards, so maybe Angel is just a nickname like “The Maverick”, and his given name is Ben. I also think it’s based as hell of Sunny to make one of the only brown characters in the game be a monkey on his dream world.

you make a good point, i never thought of it like that
Isn't Kim a she?
@@TheDifferentAnimator ah yea you right. My English.

@HellHeater that went from 0 to 100 real quick
@HellHeater sunny threw boss from the stairs

@@candyqueen8744 Right, and isn't boss kinda protective of basil?
i read a theory that sunny was jealous of kims close relationship with aubrey. sunny has a crush on aubrey, and maybe felt threatened by kim and aubrey being so close, so in headspace, he made aubrey and berly constantly bickering and acting like rivals.
Yeah, the guy’s clearly projecting.

0:38 MARI turns into SOMETHING
The thing I'm confused is why the hell would sunny dream some hot slime girls lmao
I heard that it was an inside joke with OMOCAT and the devs, and that they were actually the composers for the soundtrack.
Puberty, probably
i mean, he's a teenager.
Considering that the slime girls and Humphrey who is the first thing sunny imagined im just assuming that sunny found a 18+ magazine under his parents bed or something
The Omoriboy comic has a... possible answer to that.

Shawn and ren are probably just the sports people at the park
Daisy is probably the girl who really likes the maverick and before really liked angel

Really cool concept
Most of your points make sense and this makes me love the game even more, good job
This is so underrated! i hope you will be making more videos like this.
underrated
Hmm this looks good :)

Come to think of it, if you compare the skin tones, he also whitewashed Kel & Hero 🤨
MEATLOAF
underateeeeddddddddddddd
yes you have a nice voice
please talk about headspace references to faraway town i.e: the singing fish
u n d e r r a t e d
I like your VIDS :)
you forgot about the type of sweetheart :(this is a girl from the store
TBF, sweetheart never shows up in vast forest or otherworld (Though she is mentioned in both). Maybe they'll do a future video on stuff like that?
Otherworld is a location in Headspace, why does everyone always bring it up where it doesn’t belong? =_=
