In Celebration of Heroes There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. -John 15:13 What is a hero? We hear the word a lot, but do we really know what it means? If someone is adept at sports or plays an electric guitar extremely well, we might refer to that person as a hero. There is even a sandwich called the hero. But what is a hero? A hero is someone who does something selfless and sacrificial, someone who puts the needs of others above themselves. I think we have a lot of celebrities in our culture, but very few heroes. We need more heroes. A Historian summed it up this way: “The hero is known for achievements, the celebrity for well-knownness. The hero reveals the possibilities of human nature, the celebrity reveals the possibilities of the press and the media.” Without a doubt, our veterans are heroes. We observe Veterans Day to honor them. Then there are unsung heroes. In contrast to heroes who may get the recognition they deserve, unsung heroes rarely do. These are the people who work behind the scenes, who do a lot of the heavy lifting, but they’re rarely rewarded for it. The Bible is filled with stories of unsung heroes. There is Caleb, who went into the Promised Land with Joshua to scout it out. After more than eighty years of faithfully serving the Lord, it was Caleb who said, “So give me the hill country that the Lord promised me. You will remember that as scouts we found the descendants of Anak living there in great, walled towns. But if the Lord is with me, I will drive them out of the land, just as the Lord said” (Joshua 14:12) Caleb still was serving God, even in his later years. He clearly was an unsung hero. In the New Testament we have Andrew, the classic unsung hero. Andrew originally followed John the Baptist, who pointed to Jesus and said, “Look! There is the Lamb of God!” (John 1:36) When Andrew heard this, he began to follow Jesus. And then he found his brother, Simon, and told him they had found the Messiah. Simon Peter was the dominant force, the guy who always led others. Andrew very easily could have said, “You know, I’m not even going to tell him about this. I want Jesus all to myself.” But he didn’t do that. Andrew found his brother and brought him to Jesus (see John 1:42). In fact, whenever we read of Andrew in the New Testament, he is bringing someone to Jesus. Andrew was always working behind the scenes. It reminds us there is no end to what we can accomplish if we’re willing to get the job done, not worry about the accolades, and simply do it for God’s glory.
Does anyone else notice and get a small feeling of awe/appreciation when the animation of hands and feet mesh so perfectly with going up/down ladders, steps, or stairs? Especially in 3D. Games sure have come so far in my lifetime. And yet the simple, silent text message of; "Footsteps approaching" is still one of the most scary gaming experiences ever.

If gabs liked this style of animation for games she will like concrete genie. It's a puzzle game about this kid that gets bullied for drawing these genie creatures. 10/10 recommend to anyone
I second this!!! Concrete Genie is such a cute yet powerful game. I had a lot of fun dipping into a little creativity for once in a video game. Plus it's not too long either, so she could totally cover it in a couple streams/videos even!
Cozy horror is what I want to call the gab smolders' genre. Thank u for being so great! I love that I relate to your reactions. Also what a cool game this is!

"cozy horror" is a perfect description. I cannot play these, but it is such a joy to watch YOU play them. You always put so much enthusiasm into reading the parts. Plus you are ADORABLE!😊

Little Nightmares, Coraline, Silent Hill, and Resident Evil. It takes from the best and puts them in a single game with a unique magical sound track. Recommend 8/10

Iirc, all the streets in Silent Hill were named after famous horror writers of the time. I just think Bachman is the only one that stood the test of time (namely because its King).

The mine fire element of this story reminds me of a place near my hometown called Centralia, Pennsylvania. A mine fire started (i think in the 1970s) and has never been able to be extinguished. Silent Hill was based on that town.
I’d be shocked if anyone didn’t know about centralia by now, it’s been covered by sooooooo many content creators and traditional media and has influenced a ton of art

okay, theory. my thought is maybe where we are in the game is an alternate universe of her town (my first thought was the upside down from stranger things) and you can only access it through the cable car. most of the inhabitants we see are paired with notebooks where they talk about something traumatic like miners working in harsh conditions, someone being bullied or being left out, the psychologist feeling like she failed, so, these people enter this alternate universe from the cable car but only people who have some sort of trauma or problem in their lives can go in which is why we can go in in the beginning because we’re being chased by bullies and our cousin went missing. perhaps inhabitants are what happens if someone is left inside this for too long. i’m also wondering if the guy running the cable car maybe knows this world exists, entered it at some point, made it back out, and is trying to help destroy it through us. ALSO, last thing, maybe the head of the mining company created this alternate universe and the blood quartz is what keeps it alive and that’s what the miners were mining and that’s also why it frees the inhabitants. anyway as you can tell i’m VERY into this game and as always i can’t wait to see more of it from you gab
As a Mainer, I laughed out loud when she said "of course it's Maine" 🤣 Glad to know everyone around the world knows that every possible spooky thing happens here lmao

**man appears literally out of thin air** "hey little girl, go do that thing!" "I _am_ doing that thing!" "good" **man vanishes literally into thin air again** Big "my job here is done/but you didn't do anything" energy. Also, I like how she reaches the conclusion that its a prank for _her_ specifically. I feel like, for a kid that gets bullied and probably pranked a lot, that's probably a natural instinct to have. If you get used to being bitten, you start to anticipate it, even in situations where it maybe doesn't make sense (like when there's weird monsters running around). Paranoia, you know.
Except she's probably not the one being bullied but is the bully, hense her gylt. Also I think the guy is the keeper of the underworld. At the beginning the lift represents crossing the river Styx. The ticket is the token that the dead must pay to the ferry man so they can cross over. I think both Emily and the main character are dead. The main character either helped bully Emily, was the bully or intentionally ignored the bullying. Since Emily runs away when she sees your character, I would say she helped bully Emily or was the bully. Crows and ravens are usually associated with death so that's why the generic monsters resemble crows. I imagine the first major boss is related to how Emily was bullied to the point of suicide or another tragic end. I can't tell if it's a camera or a projector. It sounds like film being rolled through a projector.

when you said she's like Coraline you gave me goosebumps! Literally my all-time favourite film! :O I'm so glad to hear someone say they like it for once, it's so underrated!
Ah, same here. It's also oddly comforting knowing I'm not the only one who watches Gabs videos for distraction and serotonin. Keep your head up - sending positive vibes 🫂💜
Going by the name of the game gylt or sounds like guilt. Maybe sally (the main character you play as) saw her cousin Emily get bullied. But stay apart from her as not to be bullied. Until Emily couldn’t take it And did something to herself. So to deal with the guilt of not doing anything. Instead of seeing the truth. Sally puts up missing posters. Making herself believe that Emily disappeared. Her subconscious knowing the truth. When she falls off the bike. She’s in a kind of dream land turn nightmare as she learns the truth that she could have been there for her. But didn’t want attention on herself. I havnt seen the full game. Only as much as gab has played. But I fell like this is the underlying story going on
I think basically the same, I have also not seen the whole game. I would like to add in that what is happening is real, the descent into the town was very much the path down to Hades so her cousin might really be dead but Sally is currently on Orpheus' trip and has 1/3 endings chance of bringing her back, with the other endings probably being like how the story of Orpheus ended, him escaping but his love staying behind and the last one being the obvious bad end of dying.
@@liamnehren1054 maybe if you collect all the ticket fragments, you get a whole ticket, but you have to choose going back yourself or giving it to emily
I don't watch Gab's horror game stuff. But I imagine it's still similar; "That demon just ripped the girls head off, and then it exploded! That's so kyoooote!" (Please don't tell me if I'm wrong.) Seriously, though, I think I've spent enough time on this channel that I can predict most times a "cute!" or "Cute!" or "CUuuute!" is imminent. And it's so endearing, and I love it. And the irony is that Gab herself is so cute. Especially when saying how cute something is. It's a cyclic, self-referential explosion of cute. If only more of the real world worked this way. 😊
@I-Will-Destroy-U Twitter was a train-wreck well before "E for Emperor" Musk got involved. Gab being cancelled on the platform barely even registers a 'meh'. And yes; this is a 'no real content' post. It's aimed at the bots.
It's so awesome knowing the developers didn't give up on making this game when it's original intended platform google stadia failed and finished it, making it multi -platform. Love your reactions, Gab 😊
Ohh, I enjoyed this so much! Love the vibe of this game - cozy horror is a great way to describe it, not explicit or graphic but unsettling and the gameplay seems challenging enough to keep you on your toes but not scare the crap out of you at the same time.
I had OCD in the form of intrusive thoughts from the time I was 6 or 7 and it went undiagnosed until I was 17 because I never disclosed it to anyone, afraid that I was a bad person and would be taken from my family. I already hated myself by the time I was labeled "the fat kid" of my school and though I was severely bullied, it didn't bother me as much as it bothered other kids at my school when they were made fun of. I would stand up for other kids who would have the bullying be the reason why they'd begin to hate themselves. Bullying is always about something wrong with the bully/bullies. Still, I was nice to everyone at my school and never understood why I was known as the only fat one when there were several girls heavier than me and they weren't nice to people. I've realized I'm not supposed to understand because it will never make sense.
All sorts of mini vibes with this one. I just love the graphics and use of color. Pixar characters with immersive environments and gorgeous lighting. The bloom does give it an Alan wake kind of feel as well as the obvious torchlight reference.
This game's opening immediately gave me flashbacks to _Concrete Genie,_ a similarly cozy game with a heavy focus on art and atmosphere -- it's not strictly a horror game, but it's such a charming experience that it's worth mentioning it just on the off chance it gets some more love!
This is one of those games I knew I was going to get the minute it hit my radar. And it hasn't disappointed me yet. Sally is so adorable. And I love how it has features/inspiration of classic horror games (Silent Hill, Alan Wake, The Evil Within, etc.) but in a smaller package. It's just creepy and stressful enough to feel fun over frustrating. And did anyone else scream when Sally ran into that giant eyeball in one of the vents?
The instant Evelien said that _Gylt_ was made by the same developers who made _Rime,_ I knew I had to pick this game up myself. I'm not a huge fan of most of the rest of Tequila Works' works, but that game was _jaw-droppingly_ gorgeous in both visuals and music and was impressively effective at telling its story with only its visuals. It's very much a 'games as art' title, and I have massive respect for that.
Started watching another play through of this today and stopped like 10 min in like "hmmm gabs might play this so imma wait to watch," only for you to upload this exact game an hour later. I love you lol
Those cable car style towers always make me feel safe. Firewatch, hunting games, even horror games. Hell especially horror games cause I can hide in a cozy room
Game : follow the trail left by a slimy monster it goes toward the arcade. Gab : Arcade ? Arcade, arcade we go let's go play Game : about that monster... Gab : Arcade there is always a gem in Gab's videos
Bachman is Stephen King (a pen name), so considering almost everything in Silent Hill 1 is a reference to something horror based, it's probably in SH1, as you say. When I played SH1 kn PS3, I loved looking up all the place names in SH1, and finding out the meanings. 😅
Canaries were used in the old days to tell whether a mining expedition was too dangerous. Miners would take them along during shifts and if the canary had died it would mean that they had encountered toxic gas. (OA O
I dont know if it is just a coincidence, but bachman was Stephen King's pseudonym for a series of books till he died in the dark half where there was an evil version of himself.
Aaaah, Coraline... Very good movie, astounding book. Neil Gaiman really knows his craft, and the designs made for the movie are great. I tend to prefer the book (I like the fairytale vibe, and the fact that Coraline seems to have more agency than in the film) but I do recommend to movie to everyone.
Maybe the old dusty ticket that Sally got for the cable car belongs to the person (owner of neverending war letter) who decided not to leave the town? 25:44
I LOVE THIS GAME, I used to watch my older sibling play this. So many memories lol, this was when it was only in stadia. Anyway, thanks for pkaying this game. I love it so much, its so cute and scary ajd the story is great. 😁
I really wanted to keep watching, but I have decided to play this game myself. Will be back eventually to watch all the way. Thanks for showing off such a cool looking game.
Gabs, I was having a really rough day and nothing sounded better to me than watching you play some games. Thank you for existing, I hope you’re doing okay too.
Oh my goobers! I'm so excited! I saw this in the store last night and thought how this was such a Gab game and wonder if youd ever play it.. and then my notification popped up. And boy did my mood flip so quick! Yay!
*travels through a portal where everyones gone and there's monsters and the protag says "i feel like this is a huge prank"* Gab: "youve got a point" My brother in christ, no she doesn't.
11 minutes in and Gab mentioned Alan Wake and Silent Hill, exactly what I just said in Discord :) Always on point, favorite gamer, always playing the coolest, most modern and different games out there! I thought the beginning had a certain INSIDE vibe as well, but the same happens in Alan Wake, with you being chased in the woods, so idk. Damn, she even remembered Bachman (Road) from SH!

What is a hero? We hear the word a lot, but do we really know what it means?
If someone is adept at sports or plays an electric guitar extremely well, we might refer to that person as a hero. There is even a sandwich called the hero. But what is a hero?
A hero is someone who does something selfless and sacrificial, someone who puts the needs of others above themselves. I think we have a lot of celebrities in our culture, but very few heroes. We need more heroes.
A Historian summed it up this way: “The hero is known for achievements, the celebrity for well-knownness. The hero reveals the possibilities of human nature, the celebrity reveals the possibilities of the press and the media.”
Without a doubt, our veterans are heroes. We observe Veterans Day to honor them.
Then there are unsung heroes. In contrast to heroes who may get the recognition they deserve, unsung heroes rarely do. These are the people who work behind the scenes, who do a lot of the heavy lifting, but they’re rarely rewarded for it.
The Bible is filled with stories of unsung heroes.
There is Caleb, who went into the Promised Land with Joshua to scout it out. After more than eighty years of faithfully serving the Lord, it was Caleb who said, “So give me the hill country that the Lord promised me. You will remember that as scouts we found the descendants of Anak living there in great, walled towns. But if the Lord is with me, I will drive them out of the land, just as the Lord said”
(Joshua 14:12)
Caleb still was serving God, even in his later years. He clearly was an unsung hero.
In the New Testament we have Andrew, the classic unsung hero. Andrew originally followed John the Baptist, who pointed to Jesus and said, “Look! There is the Lamb of God!” (John 1:36) When Andrew heard this, he began to follow Jesus. And then he found his brother, Simon, and told him they had found the Messiah.
Simon Peter was the dominant force, the guy who always led others. Andrew very easily could have said, “You know, I’m not even going to tell him about this. I want Jesus all to myself.” But he didn’t do that. Andrew found his brother and brought him to Jesus
(see John 1:42).
In fact, whenever we read of Andrew in the New Testament, he is bringing someone to Jesus. Andrew was always working behind the scenes.
It reminds us there is no end to what we can accomplish if we’re willing to get the job done, not worry about the accolades, and simply do it for God’s glory.
Does anyone else notice and get a small feeling of awe/appreciation when the animation of hands and feet mesh so perfectly with going up/down ladders, steps, or stairs? Especially in 3D.
Games sure have come so far in my lifetime.
And yet the simple, silent text message of; "Footsteps approaching" is still one of the most scary gaming experiences ever.
Or when out of nowhere your hear a noice
Yeah. It looks good here, and good in little nightmares 2

If gabs liked this style of animation for games she will like concrete genie. It's a puzzle game about this kid that gets bullied for drawing these genie creatures. 10/10 recommend to anyone
thanks for your recommendation! I’m a huge fan of this style too, but I’m bad at finding anything like this
I second this!!! Concrete Genie is such a cute yet powerful game. I had a lot of fun dipping into a little creativity for once in a video game.
Plus it's not too long either, so she could totally cover it in a couple streams/videos even!
Concrete genie is great!
I LOVED concrete genie!! It just got better and better- I'd play like 100 hours of that game if it had enough chapters 😊
I was just about to comment this! This reminded me of concrete genie just darker. It’s such a beautiful game and one of my all time favorites
Cozy horror is what I want to call the gab smolders' genre. Thank u for being so great! I love that I relate to your reactions. Also what a cool game this is!

Little Nightmares, Coraline, Silent Hill, and Resident Evil. It takes from the best and puts them in a single game with a unique magical sound track. Recommend 8/10

Bachman is generally a reference to Stephen King's alter ego, Richard Bachman. Under that name his works tend to be a bit more vicious than usual.
More vicious? How can it be more, King is already pretty vicious in his writing
@@moonbeam465 The Bachman books generally have no sense of hope or a chance the protagonist can beat the antagonist forces.
@@moonbeam465lol I have some suggestions for you if you think King is brutal. At least his protagonists usually win in the end
Dang, I had no idea he wrote even more terrifying things
Iirc, all the streets in Silent Hill were named after famous horror writers of the time. I just think Bachman is the only one that stood the test of time (namely because its King).
The parallel between Gab and Seán both admiring good snow physics in games is 👌
That and they both love Hot Fuzz (1:08:21)!

sally: going off rail and possibly about to die of falling from her bike at a steep area
gab: oh, no! the posters!
The mine fire element of this story reminds me of a place near my hometown called Centralia, Pennsylvania. A mine fire started (i think in the 1970s) and has never been able to be extinguished. Silent Hill was based on that town.
I’d be shocked if anyone didn’t know about centralia by now, it’s been covered by sooooooo many content creators and traditional media and has influenced a ton of art
The voice acting in this is sooo good. Actual emotion in the voices

okay, theory. my thought is maybe where we are in the game is an alternate universe of her town (my first thought was the upside down from stranger things) and you can only access it through the cable car. most of the inhabitants we see are paired with notebooks where they talk about something traumatic like miners working in harsh conditions, someone being bullied or being left out, the psychologist feeling like she failed, so, these people enter this alternate universe from the cable car but only people who have some sort of trauma or problem in their lives can go in which is why we can go in in the beginning because we’re being chased by bullies and our cousin went missing. perhaps inhabitants are what happens if someone is left inside this for too long. i’m also wondering if the guy running the cable car maybe knows this world exists, entered it at some point, made it back out, and is trying to help destroy it through us. ALSO, last thing, maybe the head of the mining company created this alternate universe and the blood quartz is what keeps it alive and that’s what the miners were mining and that’s also why it frees the inhabitants.
anyway as you can tell i’m VERY into this game and as always i can’t wait to see more of it from you gab
so well written

Coralline is one of my favorite movies, and this game def gave me Coraline vibes ❤️
**man appears literally out of thin air**
"hey little girl, go do that thing!"
"I _am_ doing that thing!"
"good"
**man vanishes literally into thin air again**
Big "my job here is done/but you didn't do anything" energy.
Also, I like how she reaches the conclusion that its a prank for _her_ specifically. I feel like, for a kid that gets bullied and probably pranked a lot, that's probably a natural instinct to have. If you get used to being bitten, you start to anticipate it, even in situations where it maybe doesn't make sense (like when there's weird monsters running around). Paranoia, you know.
He’s literally the Albus Dumbledore of this game 😂
Except she's probably not the one being bullied but is the bully, hense her gylt. Also I think the guy is the keeper of the underworld. At the beginning the lift represents crossing the river Styx. The ticket is the token that the dead must pay to the ferry man so they can cross over. I think both Emily and the main character are dead. The main character either helped bully Emily, was the bully or intentionally ignored the bullying. Since Emily runs away when she sees your character, I would say she helped bully Emily or was the bully. Crows and ravens are usually associated with death so that's why the generic monsters resemble crows. I imagine the first major boss is related to how Emily was bullied to the point of suicide or another tragic end. I can't tell if it's a camera or a projector. It sounds like film being rolled through a projector.

when you said she's like Coraline you gave me goosebumps! Literally my all-time favourite film! :O I'm so glad to hear someone say they like it for once, it's so underrated!
I love Coraline!
absolutely love Coraline. Watching it regularly. Book is different, but excellent too
If I ever had a daughter I'd name her Coraline.
Really??? Imo coraline has never been underrated, I see people talking about it all the time and a lot of books/movies/shows have referenced it. Wild
its not underrated at all,what are you talking about?
I'm in a tough period right now. Your chill videos are a great distraction. Even the horror vids are oddly relaxing :3. So thanks.
stay strong
Same here! ❤❤ stay strong with me!
Same
Everyone going through a difficult time. Stay strong! You are not alone ❤
Ah, same here. It's also oddly comforting knowing I'm not the only one who watches Gabs videos for distraction and serotonin.
Keep your head up - sending positive vibes 🫂💜
Going by the name of the game gylt or sounds like guilt. Maybe sally (the main character you play as) saw her cousin Emily get bullied. But stay apart from her as not to be bullied. Until Emily couldn’t take it And did something to herself. So to deal with the guilt of not doing anything. Instead of seeing the truth. Sally puts up missing posters. Making herself believe that Emily disappeared. Her subconscious knowing the truth. When she falls off the bike. She’s in a kind of dream land turn nightmare as she learns the truth that she could have been there for her. But didn’t want attention on herself.
I havnt seen the full game. Only as much as gab has played. But I fell like this is the underlying story going on
I feel like that's pretty much the story!
In some cases, "y" can be in a place of an "i" instead!
I thought the same thing!
I think basically the same, I have also not seen the whole game. I would like to add in that what is happening is real, the descent into the town was very much the path down to Hades so her cousin might really be dead but Sally is currently on Orpheus' trip and has 1/3 endings chance of bringing her back, with the other endings probably being like how the story of Orpheus ended, him escaping but his love staying behind and the last one being the obvious bad end of dying.
@@liamnehren1054 maybe if you collect all the ticket fragments, you get a whole ticket, but you have to choose going back yourself or giving it to emily
@@typervoxilations2311 I thought it was more of a "you still have your ticket but she lost hers" kind of deal.
Whoever did the sound design for this game really nailed it. The music is very unsettling.
This is like if The Last of Us, Little Nightmares and Silent Hill had a love child.
me: huh this is like silent hill. two seconds later, gab: girl you're in silent hill. 😂
Time for another episode of... "It's so cuuuuute" 😁
I don't watch Gab's horror game stuff. But I imagine it's still similar;
"That demon just ripped the girls head off, and then it exploded! That's so kyoooote!"
(Please don't tell me if I'm wrong.)
Seriously, though, I think I've spent enough time on this channel that I can predict most times a "cute!" or "Cute!" or "CUuuute!" is imminent. And it's so endearing, and I love it.
And the irony is that Gab herself is so cute. Especially when saying how cute something is.
It's a cyclic, self-referential explosion of cute.
If only more of the real world worked this way. 😊
@I-Will-Destroy-U Twitter was a train-wreck well before "E for Emperor" Musk got involved.
Gab being cancelled on the platform barely even registers a 'meh'.
And yes; this is a 'no real content' post. It's aimed at the bots.
@@I-Will-Destroy-Uoh why?
@@EmoBunny69probably not true. This acc just posts bait comments here for no reason
@@ND-yz5gh yeah I didn’t believe it. Just wanted to hear the bs.
It's so awesome knowing the developers didn't give up on making this game when it's original intended platform google stadia failed and finished it, making it multi -platform. Love your reactions, Gab 😊
Rainy day, house all cleaned, cup of tea and some Evelyn Gab for me! ❤🎉❤🎉
Ohh, I enjoyed this so much! Love the vibe of this game - cozy horror is a great way to describe it, not explicit or graphic but unsettling and the gameplay seems challenging enough to keep you on your toes but not scare the crap out of you at the same time.
I had OCD in the form of intrusive thoughts from the time I was 6 or 7 and it went undiagnosed until I was 17 because I never disclosed it to anyone, afraid that I was a bad person and would be taken from my family. I already hated myself by the time I was labeled "the fat kid" of my school and though I was severely bullied, it didn't bother me as much as it bothered other kids at my school when they were made fun of. I would stand up for other kids who would have the bullying be the reason why they'd begin to hate themselves. Bullying is always about something wrong with the bully/bullies. Still, I was nice to everyone at my school and never understood why I was known as the only fat one when there were several girls heavier than me and they weren't nice to people. I've realized I'm not supposed to understand because it will never make sense.
All sorts of mini vibes with this one. I just love the graphics and use of color. Pixar characters with immersive environments and gorgeous lighting. The bloom does give it an Alan wake kind of feel as well as the obvious torchlight reference.
I love the little loading icon wheres she's walking. So cute!
Very cool, it's like a cross between "Coraline" and "Little Nightmares". I get "Psychonauts" vibes from it as well. Love the art style and the music!
This game's opening immediately gave me flashbacks to _Concrete Genie,_ a similarly cozy game with a heavy focus on art and atmosphere -- it's not strictly a horror game, but it's such a charming experience that it's worth mentioning it just on the off chance it gets some more love!
This is one of those games I knew I was going to get the minute it hit my radar. And it hasn't disappointed me yet. Sally is so adorable. And I love how it has features/inspiration of classic horror games (Silent Hill, Alan Wake, The Evil Within, etc.) but in a smaller package. It's just creepy and stressful enough to feel fun over frustrating. And did anyone else scream when Sally ran into that giant eyeball in one of the vents?
This game is so gorgeous! I love how the monsters are unsettling without being grotesque. Cant wait for the next part!!
this gives me paranorman vibes to me with the character models, the sleepy town vibe and music
I was one of those that played this on Stadia while it was still kicking. Excited to replay it.
The instant Evelien said that _Gylt_ was made by the same developers who made _Rime,_ I knew I had to pick this game up myself. I'm not a huge fan of most of the rest of Tequila Works' works, but that game was _jaw-droppingly_ gorgeous in both visuals and music and was impressively effective at telling its story with only its visuals. It's very much a 'games as art' title, and I have massive respect for that.
1:12:29 "A cross between Slenderman and a spider"
...SPIDER-MAN??
Started watching another play through of this today and stopped like 10 min in like "hmmm gabs might play this so imma wait to watch," only for you to upload this exact game an hour later. I love you lol
“Girl youre in silent hill” I had the same thought moments before Gab said it 😂❤
thank you gab for all the content
Absolutely love this game, played it on Stadia a couple years ago. Definitely one of my top three favorite games. Happy it's becoming more popular.
I love the kind of games you play Gab! You described it perfectly - cozy horror! Thank you for putting a smile on our faces. ❤️
Fair warning Gab ive beaten it if u want the good ending collect all the collectables
1:22:26😂😂 I’m DYING… “GASP, moving mannequins! It’s happening!!” … “There’s movement. We’ve got movement!!” 😂😂 you’re so hysterical I can’t Gabs!
I LOVE the look of this game it's so nice, I also find it really cool how it goes first person mode when you crawl in the vents I find that so clever
Those cable car style towers always make me feel safe. Firewatch, hunting games, even horror games. Hell especially horror games cause I can hide in a cozy room
Game : follow the trail left by a slimy monster it goes toward the arcade.
Gab : Arcade ? Arcade, arcade we go let's go play
Game : about that monster...
Gab : Arcade
there is always a gem in Gab's videos
Bachman is Stephen King (a pen name), so considering almost everything in Silent Hill 1 is a reference to something horror based, it's probably in SH1, as you say. When I played SH1 kn PS3, I loved looking up all the place names in SH1, and finding out the meanings. 😅
A new Gab Smolders horror game playthtough? Cancelling all plans...
Canaries were a large part of silent hill too. They would alert every one before things started to change
Canaries were used in the old days to tell whether a mining expedition was too dangerous. Miners would take them along during shifts and if the canary had died it would mean that they had encountered toxic gas. (OA O
This style reminds me of that game you played a while ago with the dice world. I loved that game
Oh yeah, that game!
I believe it was called lost in random.
2:30 when she picked up the inhaler, it sounded like Little Nightmares when you pick up achievements
This is exactly Gab's genre of game! Cozy Horror is one reason why I watch this channel.
I dont know if it is just a coincidence, but bachman was Stephen King's pseudonym for a series of books till he died in the dark half where there was an evil version of himself.
Such a fascinating combination of Silent Hill, Little Nightmares, and even The Evil Within.
The voice acting in this game is incredible, especially Sally and Emily!
That Finding Nemo reference came out of nowhere and brought back oh so many memories.
Thank you so much, Gab, for the amazing content you produce. ❤️
Anyone else who got reminded of doctor who with that terrifying spider/slenderman monster in the arcade? This game is everything i wanted and more
Thats the true horror, other people, humans.... give me a monster any day, vampire, werewolf, goblin.... just no people... lol
What are you talking about? You’re alone in this game and there are monsters
Aaaah, Coraline... Very good movie, astounding book. Neil Gaiman really knows his craft, and the designs made for the movie are great. I tend to prefer the book (I like the fairytale vibe, and the fact that Coraline seems to have more agency than in the film) but I do recommend to movie to everyone.
Maybe the old dusty ticket that Sally got for the cable car belongs to the person (owner of neverending war letter) who decided not to leave the town? 25:44
I lost one of my pet lizards today, I’m glad Gab is here to provide some wholesomeness to cheer me up.
I'm sorry about your lizard
I LOVE THIS GAME, I used to watch my older sibling play this. So many memories lol, this was when it was only in stadia. Anyway, thanks for pkaying this game. I love it so much, its so cute and scary ajd the story is great. 😁
Tequila Works are such a great little studio! These are the same guys who put out Rime, which was another favourite back on the PS4.
Yay for cozy horror! I love the vibe and art style of this game, as well as the awesome soundtrack. Sorta creepy but not too much!
Reminds me a ton of Alan Wake - flashlight, light v dark, small northwest town, an annual festival, missing pieces if time, and creepy.
I can’t wait to watch this! I’m saving it for this evening for when I can fully focus on it.
Gabs: Are there no teachers keeping an eye on things?
Me, presuming this is set in America: American school system babyyyyyyyy
The music reminds me SO much of the Guild Wars 2 Tangled Depths music it gave me chills! Creepy vines!💀🌱
I need another episode of this 🤩
I really wanted to keep watching, but I have decided to play this game myself. Will be back eventually to watch all the way. Thanks for showing off such a cool looking game.
I was so happy to see that this is from the same studio as rime!! I loved that game!
Gabs, I was having a really rough day and nothing sounded better to me than watching you play some games. Thank you for existing, I hope you’re doing okay too.
She's playing another cool game, I'm do excited!!!
I played the game your in for an awesome ride. I really enjoyed playing it and unlocking the story. Hope you have fun on your playthrough!
Oh my goobers! I'm so excited! I saw this in the store last night and thought how this was such a Gab game and wonder if youd ever play it.. and then my notification popped up. And boy did my mood flip so quick! Yay!
That's the passion we all want to see, hunched closer to the screen, like a little goblin
I just did a rewatch and just caught a Hot Fuzz reference! LOL "Manager's office, Mr. Skinnerrrr"
10:10 わあ、鍵がかかってる！😮
I was looking for this comment 🫢
*FINALLY* a video game that gives us a decent flashlight!
It's been so long!
(Yes I'm look'n at YOU Fallout 3!)
I looooove the design of this game and yes definite Little Nightmares/Coralline vibes for sure. Ty for the content!
*travels through a portal where everyones gone and there's monsters and the protag says "i feel like this is a huge prank"*
Gab: "youve got a point"
My brother in christ, no she doesn't.
So excited to sit down with a cup of coffee, watch this video and get some work done!! Thank you Gabs!! ❤❤
The cable car guy gives me Robert Englund vibes and I love it!
I love how she's so tiny that when she runs it looks like she's waddling her hands and her backpack sways side to side it's very cute 🥰 💞
Paranormal vibes from the art :) saw u playing other day and it’s so cute
the music in this game makes it all the more immersive somehow. its so damn good.
This is an awesome game. I'm so glad I finally got to sit down and watch it. I'm so excited for more. Thank you for playing Gab! ❤
Please continue this gameplay, I bet it will be fun and full of cuteness.
Gylt reminds me of the movie coraline witch is my favorite movie! I love the style of it! thanks for the video gab!
11 minutes in and Gab mentioned Alan Wake and Silent Hill, exactly what I just said in Discord :) Always on point, favorite gamer, always playing the coolest, most modern and different games out there!
I thought the beginning had a certain INSIDE vibe as well, but the same happens in Alan Wake, with you being chased in the woods, so idk. Damn, she even remembered Bachman (Road) from SH!
This is the 71st day of waiting gab to make a 1 mil sub video/stream.
The music in this game reminds me of the music in Sleepy Hollow.
I think you would really enjoy the game Spiritfarer, it's adorable & also has great lore :) thanks for all the content Gab, you're my comfort youtuber
I literally just watched this on twitch last night because I wasn’t sure if you were gonna upload it, but low and behold!
Very cool art and cool graphics for it being cartoony. Loved it
This was so good. Please post more soon. I’m on the edge of my seat
I love the art direction choice they took for this game.
People reading the title (the right way): guilt
My brain trying to complicate things: GYLT = Get Your Life Together
Looks just like concrete genie! I loved that game!!
