I love the idea of a guy chopping down a tree, seeing the trees have red glowing eyes and he still stops to calmly drink tea in the middle of all those pissed off trees like "u mad bro? Do sumfin' I dare you."
I actually just watched a documentary on how plants can recognize who cut down or generally destroyed other plants in it's area, so the chances of you getting killed by a tree in vengeance are low, but never zero.
Need a game where you play as a Lovecraftian monster doing mundane Lovecraftian things when a normal person wonders into your realm and steals your artifacts
the cave thing has bridges, keys, medallion things, symbols, and art depictions such as statues and drawings. I don't think that was all the worm's doing.
While I can appreciate really wanting a spruce tree, I can't help but think there must have been a closer option to the house so you didn't have to go through a forest of angry trees, angler fish ghosts and a dungeon.
I'll give credit, the reveal of the worm is very well done, you get two things from the monsters you've already seen, The trees and the Angler, and one from one you haven't, the ice worm, Setting up you meeting it afterward.
It was simple horror, but, in my oppinion, effective. It just kept me tensed up and continuously anticipating the character's death. Not jumpscare horror, but horror created by your own mind
I wasn't looking at the screen when Manly started talking about the Dev's other game, so when he said "Also the trees have eyes" I thought he meant that the dev had made another game called "The Trees Have Eyes." Imagine my surprise when I looked up to see that the trees, in fact, had eyes.
Most of my all time favorite games, mostly horror, have "low resolution" graphics. Idk why I love old ps1/n64/GameCube style graphics so much, maybe it's just nostalgia warping my vision but it adds a sense of uncanny valley, which help add to the unsettling atmosphere.
It's my favourite kind of horror game. Low "graphics" or an interesting art style Horror movies are popular to make because, at least at one time, they tend to be pretty cheap. So it's a great callback to that
Finally an interesting game that deserves to be named "atmospheric horror game", unlike all the walking simulators. You can actually die here, the graphics are neat and you don't get typical "you died" at the end.
My god, I've gotten so attuned to Manly's ANIME-isms that I somehow knew he'd say 'to boil anime' at the beginning.... Oh no! It's taking over my brain!
Lorax: i speak for the trees. Manly: I cut the trees. Lorax: The Trees said you must die. Manly: You wanna go? try me. **dies** Also Manly: it's ok I'm just gonna respawn.
I've had such a long and tiring day, my brain is so mush right now that Manly completely flipping over the sled had me cackling out loud like an exotic bird
3:22 look pines, this was between me and the spruce, okay? So keep your conifers to yourself and I won't have to roll you in peanut butter, bird seed, and conclude with a beautiful ribbon of yarn slipknot!
Manly talking to reason at the angry trees, while sipping a cup of "tea". And then, there were the two guardians: Anglerfish and Ice Worm. In the end, the protagonist doesn't give a flip. Just your average, everyday creatures.
I see what you mean about the effectiveness of implementing the setting of an icy biome and the inhospitable frigidity of the barren wasteland to create a horror atmosphere. The unsettling stillness and abject solitude contribute to the cultivation of a hostile environment ripe with opportunity for terror to occur. I just… didn’t expect that the horror would come from trees with eyes, flying angler fish, and giant, Beetlejuice-like ice worms. I’m also not privy to any possible folk-lore that this game would be referencing with its inclusion of these elements, and I can’t ascertain whether these things have any symbolic purpose or if they were simply selected due to the fear naturally associated with them. I suppose in simplest terms they represent “darkness” or perhaps perpetual entrapment within the winds and snow of the blizzard. Interesting concept, and truly Zelda dungeon-esque, as you apparently even face Molgera in its depths, though I agree that the pacing was a bit inconsistent. I also personally prefer when the horror elements have a bit more cohesion to their design and fit thematically with the established atmosphere and setting. In that sense, I think the bathroom game actually better succeeds.
Marool Variations: Angler-fish, Carrachan, Devil-fish, Keddle-man, Kethrie, Kettach, Kilmaddy, Marmaid, Mareillen, Marsgum, Masgum, Meermaid, Merlin-fish, Molly Gowan, Monk-fish, Plucker, Shoemaker, Toad-fish, Weever, Wide-gab is a real folklore and the angler fish is just a variant of it
I just would of told the trees & the angler fish that the tree owed me a large some of money due to it's gambling addiction. This is what happens to people who don't pay their debts.
Cant imagine living in a lonely cabin that's claustrophobic af and has less than the bare minimum. Like, he doesnt even have an oven in there or a stove top of any type, what does he eat? Not even mentioning the lack of bed or even an outhouse.
More of a Dune thing than Tremors, actually. The Fremen were the ones who walked a particular way to avoid the worms. In Tremors, any ground movement will attract them.
@@kidprime6863 Also true. I think the worms would get smarter if they had anything to adapt to, but given that the plot of Children and God Emperor of Dune with water being harmful to them, I don't know what they could really do.
"A horror game where trees eat people" Idk why but im reminded of legends of the hidden temple... Just thinking about the dark forest section where the trees grab you if you try to find the artifact inside.
_I know why the trees were angry_ Same with the ice worm that came close to devouring you and your tree. Only you had your tea. If only the tea gave you the wisdom to cut down the nearest spruce to your house instead of wandering for miles. Instead, it was warm, comforting, protective, and soul-mending. A warm holiday tale. Perhaps next year, they will settle for a nice artificial tree instead and get some pine-scented candles.
YEAH! Penumbra, set in friggin greenland, and that whole scene where you have to dodge a worm in this like, square box... and you have to shock it to death? This game makesme wanna watch a plautrhough of penumbra again LOL
Was expecting and sort of wishing comedically for that long pause on the cabin to have the worm shoot up straight underneath eating the whole thing. Darn protagonist survived for once. We’ll get em next time.
On a trip to and from Texas and we are just on our way back home after three/ four days. It takes 20 hours to and from. I’m happy that Manly makes these amazing videos that entertain me during the journey. Also I get to ignore my cousin who talks more than me and I talk a lot. Mainly just rewatching my favorite videos and the newer ones
is this a christmas game? but yeah, much of it seems abit random. It would be more interesting if it were more tied to Yule. Could pick your tree and be chased by the Wild hunt. I feel like another missed opportunity is the lack of footprints. Give you a path to follow back home, showing where you came... and, then cut you off when the footprints branch off in multiple paths or disappear.
what if he fell in the pond an died an thats why theres fish on land and every things in ice like your playing out a pergatory i cant spell it when you die an your re live what was last

I figured he was balancing it on his elbow while using his hand to carry his teacup for some extra challenge.

The player has picky kids.
Trueeeee
He's just trying to test fate lmao
The real horror is how badly you have to go pee after chugging 4 liters of tea
You kill trees, the trees kill you, but the tea component makes it all wholesome somehow
This was a surprisingly cozy horror game!
The sounds effect of this game is super satisfying bro, it just hit the spot
I agree! The snow crunching while the character walks, and the the satisfying sipping noise while drinking tea was so 👌
the snow worm sound effect is literally war of the worlds tripod sound effect lol
I'm surprised by how you got away with wasting so much tea I assume it is only meant to be used once then it slowly makes the frost recede
The POWER of the British Empire courses through that Tea!

Not an Alaskan bull worm!

dying in horror games often ruins the tension.
And this is why artificial Christmas trees were invented.
Hot tea in the ice/snow biome while chopping down trees, it's pretty nice until you're in someone's/something's food list 🏃♀️
Suspiciously specific
I wonder what the fuck make that person think I'm edible
*Anger Fish*
My god, I've gotten so attuned to Manly's ANIME-isms that I somehow knew he'd say 'to boil anime' at the beginning....
Oh no!
It's taking over my brain!
Chop down trees, drink tea, get eaten by flying fish... That same old horror game we've seen a hundred times 😔
Lorax: i speak for the trees.
Manly: I cut the trees.
Lorax: The Trees said you must die.
Manly: You wanna go? try me.
**dies**
Also Manly: it's ok I'm just gonna respawn.
Santiago
That man doesn't even have a bed in his home , what did he make the Christmas tree for ?
I find the protagonist of this game very relatable. I too often find Lovecraftian ruins while going about my day to day life. It's a serious problem.
I learned so much in this video about the function of teapots and tree murdering squatter's rights
I've had such a long and tiring day, my brain is so mush right now that Manly completely flipping over the sled had me cackling out loud like an exotic bird

Three angler fish games so far, and I’m absolutely loving it. I hope this pattern continues.

Just having tea and nothing else from that teapot super thermos seems less believable than the ice worm. That is ultra chaga tea you got there.
yo manly, you played a demo for a RPG horror game called "Fleshport" which was fully released a while ago. Would be awesome to see you play that game
Probably another cold-region horror game I can think of is *"Cryostatis"*
Quite solid and fun game for me
"A horror game where trees eat people"
