The creator of Boiled Noodles at Night was 16, by the way. I love seeing young developers like this just excel at perfectly maintaining a creepy atmosphere with comedy sprinkled in.
An Indonesian here : For you Mark and anyone else in the comment section, the 2nd game was based from Indonesia. It was Indomie Mie Goreng, a brand of instant fried noodles. The reason why the character says "I need to buy water." is because we don't (and shouldn't) use tap water for drinking or cooking because the tap water in Indonesia is not hygienic enough. It is good enough for washing and bathing but you'll get stomachache if you use it for drinking or cooking. Hence, the character need to buy "proper" clean water usually in the form of drinkable bottled water.
@@ZukiJyanu While you can indeed kill all the bacteria and microorganism by boiling tap water, I think it's more of a cultural thing for most people here to not use tap water altogether for drinking/cooking.
I like how the first one involves you running from a monster in a crowd that can't see it, rather than the usual safety of crowds that you get in horror games (barring zombie ones).
wdym ? it follows may have a different theme but the whole "an entity that shapeshift follows you and is unseen by anyone around you, and the entity's goal is to likely kill you" is pretty spot-on here@@alien150
I think that game was heavily inspired of the movie "It Follows" just without the sex, you should defo check it out if you liked that Idea- such a good movie
That first game was really cool. You never really get stuff set from the perspective of a homeless person, you don't usually have to do things like scrounge for cash, and you don't usually get something just slooowly following you.. so many unique traits in one game!
It's more like he has a constant upload cycle that gets interrupted because he wants to do a big project, like the Iron Lung movie now, and the CYOA with Markiplier stuff before
8:42 can I just say that the vibrato and quality of that note was amazing? Seriously. Especially cause as someone who sings, my larynx can barely achieve it because of its structure and my age. I can only do riffs and runs so all manually and not natural 🥲 I’m always fascinated when I hear singers/people achieve this effortlessly. Edit: sorry, I corrected the typo. thanks lol
@@stormy2049 well even if he isn’t making a living out of singing he technically is a singer bc he has done vocal training in the past and sang in his musicals for projects like iswm and on tour :)
That first one genuinely has a fuck ton of potential. Just getting a bit more variety of people walking around the subway and adding an element of figuring out who is following you without the creepy music sounding would make it ten times better
What could even enhance the natural vibe of the game would be to only notice the stalker's footsteps being significantly louder to the ear once you spot it after a while. With that sound slowly dissipating amongst the other footsteps til you spot it's presence again.
I think you're right, but I think it being more obvious on a first level is a good thing. Have it more obvious at the beginning, but as you get more confident in avoiding it, it gets better at hiding from you.

Many Indonesians would complain the fact that 1 packet is not enough to fill you up, but 2 packets is just too much and upsets your stomach. Most people would go for the "Jumbo" version of the Indomie since 1 Jumbo is more than a regular packet but not enough to upset your stomach. - The brand of the gas stove top is also very recognizable called Rinnai. The design is exactly like that with the black and brown accents. - The bathroom is very typical Southeast Asian: Squatting toilet and big deep resevoir to hold water with a small plastic bucket. As an Indonesian, I'm kinda disappointed that the bucket is not heartshaped since the heartshaped bucket thing is basically an Indonesian meme and they would joke about how they can find this specific plastic bucket in almost every single toilet. - The green plastic chair with that very design is also very typical of Southeast Asian.

It's even more than that if you count the videos he's done with his friends, the playthroughs of things like Resident Evil and amnesia, etc. It's pretty amazing!!
Random thought I had while watching one of the games, never tell people you live alone or are from out of town, better to say you’re visiting family and meeting up with friends. Always protect yourself when on vacation or away from home!
@@AIHumanEqualityyou let out much more information than you realise in even small talk, if you stay quiet and just listen to people you can find out alot about them. Not trying to sound edgy but it's the truth plus news gets around via gossip and such
@@AIHumanEquality It might not come up in conversations much, but it's definitely info that people post on their social media all the time. Posting pictures of nearby places to their homes, saying when they are out somewhere & often where the place is/name of it, or saying on vacation etc. And since a lot of people have their accounts set to public or friends of friends it can mean you are letting way more people know details they shouldn't than you might realize. But OP is definitely giving out good tips for people who might not travel much or haven't thought about it much.
@@AIHumanEquality when your out and about some people will act very sociable, especially if its a tourist heavy area and that person is trying to sell stuff or find out info about where people are staying. it happens, and unfortunetly some of these people are experts in conversation and are able to get it to be brought up naturally. for example you could be taking a hike and you take a rest and someone else is there, they strike up a conversation, they dont set off any alarms, boom they ask if you have a significant other and some people will go "oh no i live alone/with family" etc, it happens
There was a dialogue or something he actually missed that explained why he had no water. Gabs Smolders played it and included it. It explains that the game's from Indonesia, where the tap water is unsafe to drink, so they have to buy pure water.
He has to do that since the last time he actually gave negative feed back, the creator took it personally and that happened more then once. (Not to mention as the other reply mentioned, people would come after the game; shame he can't really critique games because of this if he says every game is "not bad" despite some being very not good.
In quite a few cases (not this one) it's that team or that person's first dip into the ocean of making video games. Telling them their game sucks in front of millions of people isn't really that helpful. Telling them what needs work it is. Some people may be more willing to give it another shot with positive feedback and I appreciate that. I'm a veteran chef, a ton of my up-and-coming chefs come from a place of insecurity in their work and I've noticed when people tell them they suck it just shuts them down for a bit. Of course they suck, they've never done the effing thing before. Roll the gnocchi a bit smaller, adjust the flour, and try again. =)
I like how permanent the stamina felt in the first game. While it did slowly recover it was a lot more punishing to use it up when you didn't need it. Felt it was a much more realistic implimentation of stamina.
I like that mechanic as well, mostly because that bar is so large. It recovers slowly so you have some hope of outrunning the threat, but in the end it crushes that hope. The threat doesn't ever walk more quickly, as you go out of breath more and more and the crowd is stopping your escape. But if you're careful, you have more than enough to find the exit. That's cool.
Mark: “There something following you…” Me: *slowly turns my head to see my cat peaking around the corner, down the hall, staring at me* “Well, shoot-dang, you’re right”
this is literally what being stalked combined with social anxiety feels like. the sheer panic of all those people rushing around u and pushing u is exactly how social anxiety feels
The noodles one was such an Indonesian thing, the house and everything. It was like I was back home, boiling noodles at night (and the blue bathroom door wow)
hearing the French announcment in the train, Mark has now experienced french public transports : super crowded, expensive tickets, creeps lurking around (and train stations super confusing, big up to Chatelet)
@bvhcjgvlb au début j'ai cru que c'était moi qui avait du mal a entendre mais quand j'ai entendu l'annonce pour la 2eme fois j'étais là "OH! DU FRANÇAIS!"
Can we all appreciate Lixian? He does all of these AMAZING edits for the 3 scary games videos, (and all the videos), while having his own channel, working on his own game(s), and also raising a child. 👏🏾👏🏾 And also appreciate Markiplier for making videos, while doing other things in his life, like distractable (PPL SHOULD DEF LISTEN TO IT) and as well as working on his own personal projects, like how he did with In Space and his work with Iron Lung.
The first game is defiantly inspired by IT Follows. I see a lot of potential. 2nd looks good but short. The 3rd game has got potential as well and about time Molly Moon got her own game. After seeing her videos. I thought they would make a good quirky games. Hopefully she either expands the story or does many short stories. Either way can't wait for the full release.
The story about the homeless man seems interesting, there's a lot of horror stories about homeless people you hear about on the news. In Memphis sometimes "kids" would go around hunting homeless people with a 22 and shoot them while in their makeshift beds. there are other stories of them getting beaten and stabbed to death or forced to take homemade drugs, but the idea of kids hunting human beings at night like a hunter hunts deer is probably the most terrifying thing I've hear coming out of Memphis.
@ca44444 Because coming from yours truly who has lived by Memphis, it’s crazy. There would be a mugging story on the local news almost every night. Glad I got outta there tbh
boil noodles at night is a game made by a 16 yo student in indonesia and also the noodles we call it Indomie Goreng or Fried Noodle in english, it's very good and basically you can eat it as a food or snack together with an egg as shown in the game and many workers or students in indonesia that live alone in a dorm or an apartment, they always have that but basically us indonesians always have that in our kitchen😁
I'm not Indonesian but I could tell it was the Mi Goreng brand of noodles pixelated. I bought them off Amazon and they were delicious. Side note: they are not ramen you just boil the noodles and dump the water, mixing the wet noodles with the seasoning packets. I also recommend frying an egg to put on top.
"Make yourself at home!" Mark: Goes into the next room, steals a screwdriver and then tries to put it into the freezer, then the fridge... Me: He has some really weird habits...
@@maxu0 i think they're trying to be hard and act like the game isn't scary even tho if this happened to them in real life they'd b scared outta their mind
It’s kind of crazy to think that Mark is literally filming and editing an entire movie and yet he is still putting out content regularly I think that deserves a round of applause
As of January 12th, "Excuse Me, Sir" is currently canceled because the star gave up on the project. Airdorf says they may revive the idea with someone other than Molly, but right now it's basically dead.
16:57 Because in the setting, not all people have drinkable tap water. Plumbing for toilet are mostly from our own house's well, and even proper tap water sometimes aren't clean enough for all houses. We buy water in big or medium gallons.
@@tuckergoodin7684 Fair Got friends in the US that have at 2 big gallons of water in their car or home Guess it's normal for nations that don't have drinkable tap water (or proclaimed drinkable while it's actually borderline paint)
@@tuckergoodin7684 Thing is in Indonesia, city water from pipes aren't all clean, regardless status. The 70% other area meanwhile, has clean drinkable water from mountains 😊 it's not a matter of Basic necessity, rather it's just environmentally like that. Water isn't hard to find thankfully, stores that sell gallons water are available within every 200m.
Living about 30 miles outside of London and having been there many, many times, this first game is exactly what it feels like to run from platform to platform, jumping off a train with 2 minutes to spare to catch the next one and people walking as slow as possible, it's never an easy route, it's stressful as all heck, plenty of GET OUT OF THE WAY's lol
first game was SUPER interesting, but I am not over whatever prompted the pov character to go "hm, yeah, i should totally go to where a shooting just happened, nothing bad can happen there" like that is the most horror protagonist move ever
The second game had to be one of the most unnerving games I've seen in a while. The absence of music, the quiet. The amazing layout in the house that was so well made just getting the chair feels creepy despite how small the house is. The lighting is masterfully crafted. And to think a 16 year old made this! Wow!

We've all been there, nothing to hear or any fast movements. Just having to walk down to the store late at night and something smells funny and that's all your mind can stick to. Having to stand next to people when you can't quite make out their faces. A real punch in the anxiety.

I like the thought of a horror game where you have the option to repeat what the other characters are saying back to them either in a normal tone or a SaRcAsTiC tOnE
I recognize the noodle package from the second game, it's indomie stir fry ramen and its one of the best noodles. Funnily the packages are a little small so I make two when I'm hungrier as well. You can find them in the imports section in a supermarket or Amazon has them for 1.20 a pack, I can only find them in person at my local Kroger for about 70 cents a pack but ymmv. They're great noodles but they're more of a yakisoba type deal and not soup, you put all five seasoning packets it comes with into a bowl then mix in the cooked noodles with only a little water. You'll never go back to normal ramen, just a warning.
Honestly, I think that first game would do the "it could be anyone" premise much better if it only played the suspense music when the thing is very close, not just when it is in your sight. Kinda gives away exactly how much danger you're in. Maybe add it as a hard mode, I dunno. Other than that, it looks pretty novel!
the first game is really unique with how it executes it's setting: it's full of people, while other horror games would have you only in a lone location with nobody but you and the monster. i really haven't seen anything else from a horror game. but the horror that, even among people, you can feel isolated and alone... really well done!
Hey Markiplier, pls play ''chácara'' is a amazing Brazilian horror game that takes place on a small farm in the interior of Brazil and looks like the puppet combo games and the story of the game is as follows: when you were traveling your car ran out of gas and you see the farm and asks for help, but the person who lives in that house is a crazy old man traumatized by things in the past, and your objective in this game is to discover this man's story and get gas to fill the car tank and escape.

- Indonesians are still very superstitious, so the game might be based on an urban legend, but since I'm personally not a big fan of urban legends, I really don't know (?)

Can we just appreciate how this man has found a total of 309 different horror games and hes played them all for us to see
It's even more than that if you count the videos he's done with his friends, the playthroughs of things like Resident Evil and amnesia, etc. It's pretty amazing!!
@@dangerxbadger2300 i’ve always thought markiplier was one of the most amazing youtubers on earth and i still do
Also respect to the people who made those 300+ games, they the ones really putting in work.
@@dangerxbadger2300plus many of these videos have 4 or more games for when he plays super short games
even MORE if you count special episodes where he's played more than three
Random thought I had while watching one of the games, never tell people you live alone or are from out of town, better to say you’re visiting family and meeting up with friends. Always protect yourself when on vacation or away from home!
When would that naturally come up in a conversation. Who's randomly asking strangers if they live alone???
@@AIHumanEqualityyou let out much more information than you realise in even small talk, if you stay quiet and just listen to people you can find out alot about them. Not trying to sound edgy but it's the truth plus news gets around via gossip and such
@valkyriesofloveandwar why don't you just think about that, and I'm sure you'll figure it out. If not then the answer is thieves and murderers
@@AIHumanEquality It might not come up in conversations much, but it's definitely info that people post on their social media all the time. Posting pictures of nearby places to their homes, saying when they are out somewhere & often where the place is/name of it, or saying on vacation etc. And since a lot of people have their accounts set to public or friends of friends it can mean you are letting way more people know details they shouldn't than you might realize. But OP is definitely giving out good tips for people who might not travel much or haven't thought about it much.
@@AIHumanEquality when your out and about some people will act very sociable, especially if its a tourist heavy area and that person is trying to sell stuff or find out info about where people are staying. it happens, and unfortunetly some of these people are experts in conversation and are able to get it to be brought up naturally. for example you could be taking a hike and you take a rest and someone else is there, they strike up a conversation, they dont set off any alarms, boom they ask if you have a significant other and some people will go "oh no i live alone/with family" etc, it happens
i like the fact of Mark having to boil a singular noodle and having no water inside his house
There was a dialogue or something he actually missed that explained why he had no water. Gabs Smolders played it and included it. It explains that the game's from Indonesia, where the tap water is unsafe to drink, so they have to buy pure water.
666 likes. Not touching that.
Nvm. Moment I said that, someone commented. Illegal.
It didn't load my previous comment. Whaaaaat
Dialogue options:
"Have you seen my brother?"
"What are you doing down here?"
Mark:
Would you like a screwdriver?

I love how Mark offers positive criticism even if he's not totally feeling a game
I feel like he has to do that because his fans will attack a dev if he says what he actually feels about the games lmao
He has to do that since the last time he actually gave negative feed back, the creator took it personally and that happened more then once. (Not to mention as the other reply mentioned, people would come after the game; shame he can't really critique games because of this if he says every game is "not bad" despite some being very not good.
Who gives a fuck all games are good in my eyes
In quite a few cases (not this one) it's that team or that person's first dip into the ocean of making video games. Telling them their game sucks in front of millions of people isn't really that helpful. Telling them what needs work it is. Some people may be more willing to give it another shot with positive feedback and I appreciate that. I'm a veteran chef, a ton of my up-and-coming chefs come from a place of insecurity in their work and I've noticed when people tell them they suck it just shuts them down for a bit. Of course they suck, they've never done the effing thing before. Roll the gnocchi a bit smaller, adjust the flour, and try again. =)
I like how permanent the stamina felt in the first game. While it did slowly recover it was a lot more punishing to use it up when you didn't need it. Felt it was a much more realistic implimentation of stamina.
I like that mechanic as well, mostly because that bar is so large. It recovers slowly so you have some hope of outrunning the threat, but in the end it crushes that hope. The threat doesn't ever walk more quickly, as you go out of breath more and more and the crowd is stopping your escape. But if you're careful, you have more than enough to find the exit. That's cool.
ikr! so smart fr
That first game was genuinely amazing, despite being so short. I hope it has an amazing release.
Mark's scream when he ran out of stamina and the tall Boi kept getting closer was really beautiful

The story about the homeless man seems interesting, there's a lot of horror stories about homeless people you hear about on the news. In Memphis sometimes "kids" would go around hunting homeless people with a 22 and shoot them while in their makeshift beds. there are other stories of them getting beaten and stabbed to death or forced to take homemade drugs, but the idea of kids hunting human beings at night like a hunter hunts deer is probably the most terrifying thing I've hear coming out of Memphis.

boil noodles at night is a game made by a 16 yo student in indonesia and also the noodles we call it Indomie Goreng or Fried Noodle in english, it's very good and basically you can eat it as a food or snack together with an egg as shown in the game and many workers or students in indonesia that live alone in a dorm or an apartment, they always have that but basically us indonesians always have that in our kitchen😁
So it's like the Indonesian version of ramen.
I'm an Aussie, but as soon as I saw it was mi goreng, i completely understood why they wanted those noodles so much
wkwkwk kaget pas lihat ada indomie, nice info
Those are SO good. I need to find some again 😅
I'm not Indonesian but I could tell it was the Mi Goreng brand of noodles pixelated. I bought them off Amazon and they were delicious. Side note: they are not ramen you just boil the noodles and dump the water, mixing the wet noodles with the seasoning packets. I also recommend frying an egg to put on top.
"Make yourself at home!"
Mark: Goes into the next room, steals a screwdriver and then tries to put it into the freezer, then the fridge...

@@tuckergoodin7684 Thing is in Indonesia, city water from pipes aren't all clean, regardless status. The 70% other area meanwhile, has clean drinkable water from mountains 😊 it's not a matter of Basic necessity, rather it's just environmentally like that. Water isn't hard to find thankfully, stores that sell gallons water are available within every 200m.
But boiling the water makes it drinkable. And you aren't even drinking it...
Living about 30 miles outside of London and having been there many, many times, this first game is exactly what it feels like to run from platform to platform, jumping off a train with 2 minutes to spare to catch the next one and people walking as slow as possible, it's never an easy route, it's stressful as all heck, plenty of GET OUT OF THE WAY's lol

I recognize the noodle package from the second game, it's indomie stir fry ramen and its one of the best noodles. Funnily the packages are a little small so I make two when I'm hungrier as well. You can find them in the imports section in a supermarket or Amazon has them for 1.20 a pack, I can only find them in person at my local Kroger for about 70 cents a pack but ymmv.
They're great noodles but they're more of a yakisoba type deal and not soup, you put all five seasoning packets it comes with into a bowl then mix in the cooked noodles with only a little water.
You'll never go back to normal ramen, just a warning.
Its not ramen, even though it gets boiled, its not ramen. You're not wrong about the yakisoba comparison though.
The Mark + bandana combo goes hard

I found Mark trying to give everyone and everything that screwdriver way too funny in the last game, lol.
Honestly, I think that first game would do the "it could be anyone" premise much better if it only played the suspense music when the thing is very close, not just when it is in your sight. Kinda gives away exactly how much danger you're in.
Maybe add it as a hard mode, I dunno. Other than that, it looks pretty novel!
You (and everyone else who enjoyed the first game) would love the 2014 movie It Follows
and add some lore.. its really nice to see the first game got lore expanded..
the first game is really unique with how it executes it's setting: it's full of people, while other horror games would have you only in a lone location with nobody but you and the monster.
i really haven't seen anything else from a horror game. but the horror that, even among people, you can feel isolated and alone... really well done!
