The idea of a game starting out with the horror aspects and just delving back into a fun game, as if the evil spirit doesnt know what game its in at first but eventually ends up really liking it and starts making the player just go through actual levels so they see how good it is too sounds really funny to me
The closest I can think of for something like that is the bizarre Slamscape for PS1, which is a sorta digital horror-like game decades before such things became a genre.
A game following an eldritch horror corrupting a video game but learns emotion through the player and eventually just becomes a game developer is a cool idea
Horror game that starts spooky but wario appears,kills the big bad/spooky/thing that is making everything spooky and the game becomes a wario land game
Imagine going through an EXE game, seeing so many beloved characters die horribly just for Wario to show up and make the final level the entirety of Wario Land 2
1:36 I'm glad you mentioned A Happy Place. The game has been out for almost a year and has gotten almost no attention. Y'all seriously need to check it out, especially if you liked Super Mario Dolor. Trust me.
Fun fact about the blender game engine! It existed before blender got a huge overhaul update, the program was super experimental at the time and a little bit dated but after the 3.0 update came out the game engine was removed
10:33 I actually jumped at that slow jumpscare cause I looked at the screen at the wrong time, But that little "...Why did he do that?" just made me burst out laughing cause I also wasn't expecting that XD
the second i saw the thumbnail was super mario dolor, i clicked it the second i could, its personally one of my favorite mario horror games, and seeing one of my fav youtubers covering it gives me joy!!
The one thing that consistently happens when I do see videos about Dolor I always fall asleep. And that's not even because of the game being bad. The OST is just so relaxing and calming, even in the horror levels, that I just feel so at ease and at peace that I can't keep my eyes open. Had to watch this video twice because I had fallen asleep. Fuckin' love Dolor.
It’s really awesome that Dolor is getting attention again, I always thought it was kinda underrated (Also when first seeing this game I legitimately thought that the title was just an intentional typo of “color” just to add to the bait and switch. The more you know, I suppose)
5:27 Technically Inscryption is kinda like that if you think about it It starts off quite creepy and dark and then it becomes a retro card game It never gives up the creepy vibe as it still is a horror game, but the card game itself can get pretty fun
Thank you for making a video about this game. This is one of my favourites not just because it plays well in what it was set to do, but that what made it popular was that hobo bros totally thought it was a rip off game and played it only to get whiplash from the tone change.
Finally, a video on Dolor. Such a good game that manages to stay timeless through the gameplay. As the best Dolor player and only player (of my knowledge) to have beaten both main endings without taking a point of damage, I can say that the hitbox and overall jank is there and very funny. I can also say that you're doing the Luigi boss fight wrong, as generally the better strat is to stay on the bottom, not the top. The lightning flash also only does 1 damage, so you can survive it if you haven't been hit prior to one happening. Anyway, good video. People should play the game, or else risk turning into goombas.
Unrelated question, but in a future video, could you maybe talk about the game "Around the Clock of Bikini Bottom", a 3D spongebob horror game? I think it would be fun to watch your reaction to the game, as I have played it and it was pretty good in my opinion.
Another banger *insert popular video game IP here* but evil game/video Side note: I never figured out if the title was a misspelling of "color" or if it really meant dolor as in Spanish for pain.
Man, i remember this game. I honesty like the aesthetic of it, and i dont even know how to describe it. Maybe its the sort of "bootleg" look, the weirdly smooth animations, etc.
3:05 SFM doesn’t have the ability to do that YET, but blender use to have a built in game engine, also surprisingly I don’t think you can imitate this look in unity
I love Toadbup’s names for these horror characters. I’ve now just stuck to calling “Guilt” from that one Mario horror game Plunge because of Mr. Bup. Giggles is now added to that list.
i'm honestly shocked that i didn't even hear that a Happy Place came out. personally Mario Dolor really shaped a lot of my approach or preferences when it comes to horror which is kinda funny to say about a small little fangame, so i was really looking forward to a Happy Place because goddamn i love Ziggity's approach
You know that's not a bad idea. A game that starts upfront as the spooky scary or gets there quick, but the player character is just like "Nah." and proceeds to go on an absolute tear that'd make Doomguy give a thumbs up. Then once it's all said and done, it just turns into a completely different and mundane game.
14:36 I'm pretty sure, to avoid the 'medusa stare' that giggles does, you have to stand underneath the semisolid platforms, because there's a wall behind it
for whatever reason, in all of the playthroughs i've seen of dolor i've never seen anyone go past the level with mr monochrome mario. i guess i always thought the game was left unfinished because of that and didn't bother looking into it, so it's super cool to see that there was still plenty of game left!!
I can't help but laugh at the flagpole giggles "jumpscare" cuz all I can think about when I see it is Virtual Insanity where the guy is slowly sliding towards the camera 😂
Oh!! This game, man I loved this game back when it came out, it had a lot of weird secrets and stuff idk if you cover it or not but there’s a secret bad ending you can get by running off during the title screen basically showing Mario’s unable to even start healing
I am so happy that you covered this amazing game, it’s so gory but it’s super good in the story being just a hallucination of Mario wanting to see his brother again.
I was so excited when I saw the thumbnail for this lol I love this game so much I still listen to the soundtrack sometimes, specifically for the boo house and underwater level
I still have very fond memories of this game. My only really elaborate Miitopia (Switch) Mii I've made is one of the horror Mario from this game. Dolor the Vampire has been one of my core party members all throughout the post-game, and I'm glad to have him.
Ah yes, my all-time favorite Nintendo fangame horror game alongside the entire FNAW series. Truly an unnerving and underrated experience.✅✅✅✅✅ Also, you totally glossed over the insane difficulty in Luigi’s fight-the SSB Brawl tactics was on some next level.
I'm So Glad People Are Talking about Mario Dolor (which means "Pain" in Spanish if you don't know) I remeber watching Yub Play it, it was really Intresting, glad it's getting talked about
10:40 Just so I can recommend them, Faith No More wrote a song called RV where the main riff was based on the water level theme; it's fairly different as you'd imagine but if you like the tune generally I'd be remiss if I didn't mention it
Mario Dolor is awesome. The first place on the internet this game appeared in was Hobo Bros, and they had no clue this was a horror game. It was so cool at the time
I'm glad to see dolor come back again, I basically grew up with it, so seeing someone else bring back the community really wraps a coat of warmness around my child hood
I think the text at 10:13 is supposed to read “it was not your fault” and the red guy says it to tell Mario that Luigi’s death was not because of him… that’s deep.
Didn't knew this was banned! I watched an Spanish RUclipsr played it years ago but didn't know this info! Thanks for making me remember this awesome fan game.
This game seems interesting, I’ll have to check it out sometime

ok thats actually pretty wholesome

real
And Luigi's mansion?

4:47 thank god I looked twice at that image
16:44 no, it’s shits, so the final bosses are shits and giggles
I wish I got to play this game, thanks for the video toadbup. It definitely inspired elements in A Happy Place, like the massive Mario you hide from.
Those light puzzles are called "Lights Out"" puzzles iirc. Or at the very least, the most popular commercial version of the game was called that.
You know that's not a bad idea.

I remember watching Yub’s play through of this game. Remember the golden -coin- rule everyone: if it taken down by Nintendo, it’s *_canon._*
I remember when the Hobo Bros played this game and SMG4 kept freaking out the entire time
I totally forgot about this game! YUB played it a while back, I have a fond memory of eating Chex mix while watching him play it
I remember Yub And LINX 4 playing this game back in the day I believe, can’t believe not much people knew about this game
Fun fact: if you get the game over screen, go back to your house and someone will be waiting there
