The spookiest thing in this game is the ecology of that pond.
Exactly, the more *she* gets closer, the more *she* brings the ocean with her
And the coment section bellow fighting over if its a lake or a lagoon on why is there a salt water fish in the lake
Man, for a 3 inch frog that thing put up one hell of a fight.
It might be brackish, but usually that involves river flow... idk
The most disturbing part about this is that you're catching ocean fish in what is *clearly* a lake
It might be caused by the uncle's worship of the sea goddess Sedna. Seems there's more and more saltwater fish as the game progresses, possibly hinting that the lake is changing to something more supernatural.
You think thats weird? Look at how many damn cans hes catching! Those fish must be eating chef boyardee ravioli like potato chips down there .
@@Magnet977 lakes are pretty much filled with trash from the surrounding lands imo
@@Pluvillion I know, I was just making the opportunity to make a corny joke.
Magnet977 Or eating canned meat or something. Just judging from the looks of the tin cans. Aaand now I’m hungry for ravioli because of the joke you made. XD
_Wow, if I had a nickel for every time ABG made a video about a fishing horror game, I'd have two nickels - which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice._
Haha! Actually there's also A Wonderful Day For Fishing: ruclips.net/video/wQX2-QtD01Q/видео.html
And Nightmare Fishing Tournament: ruclips.net/video/jzs6Uu-2iTU/видео.html
So you'd have four nickels! :)
They are participating in fishing horror jam on itch.io.
The idea is quite original
Nice Phineas and Ferb reference there 👍
Lmaoo doofenshmirtz
@@helterskelterproductions I don't remember the quote but I already know Doofenshmirtz said it XD
Dude caught a crawfish and called it a “one inch lobster”
Mike Mike Hell yeah, 69th like
And a shark.,.
@@Trollamollex Yeah, Im more concerned he caught a giant great white shark and his fishing buddy didnt have any sort or reaction.
"Nice work bob. You caught a great white! Now hang on while I take a shot at reeling in Moby Dick!"
Red Lobster really wishes they could fool people into thinking that crawfish are one-inch lobsters. Maybe they can in this game boy world.
Maybe it was a claw shrimp. :P
I noticed that since day 1 you caught less and less freshwater fish. Meaning she was changing the lake. You were getting closer with every day.
Onyx Shade I didn’t yet finish the video but it’s good because now I can know it was on purpose to have the wrong fish in there
Typically an Inuit shaman has to dive down into the ocean, stare down Sedna's shark guards and clean her hair. Afterwards, she brings bountiful catches. However, if he does a sloppy job, she causes storms and famine.
Worst job ever
What the fuck did he do??? CUT HER HAIR OFF?!
@@God-ot6xn Maybe he mentioned her marital issues
"It's a picture of a fish."
"It's a _painting_ of a fish."
Exhilarating.
Dear god, a _painting?_
@@ramz16k There's more...
@@ianfinrir8724 NO...
This game is good and all, but can we state the fact that a man managed to fish up a GREAT WHITE SHARK from a *freshwater* lake?
And a 150 inch sunfish!
Its in the lore sedna is the godess of sea creature is the one who bring them to the lake im more suprize he can lift that shark with that fishing pole
@@judygambel2801
Because Video Game Logic
What? Don't your lakes have a sprawling ecosystem with both fresh and saltwater fish!? You must be living in a fantasy land! ;P
@@shawnburke-hutchinson5901 can't argue with good old videogame logic
Yeah I’m a bit more unnerved by the friend’s weird optimism for fishing.
Seriously, that dude’s a fanatic lol
"Hey this house has had no one living in it for seemingly years, is filled with dust and cobwebs, we have no firewood for heating, and the fridge is full of decaying fishheads. We have a few hours of daylight left, so let's fish! Nothing better to do!"
Breh...look at the circumstances.
The dude is all about fish....he almost never doesn't mention fish. He keeps you from his room even at the end of the game when he is next to his car and about to leave. Why? The lake monsters don't dare approach you when he's with you, why? He *acts* scared to get you to leave faster, why? To keep you from ever going into that room. To keep you from seeing what he does to those fish. Those cops from that one ending probably had the real horror play out in front of them when they entered that room.
That’s okay. Let’s just go fishin’ and hookin’ some fresh fish
@@Trollamollex he’s fucking the fish isn’t he?
Isn't this beautiful? Salmon, trout, deep sea angler fish and 5 foot long swordfish, living in harmony in a shallow, marshy lake :')
i cri erytim
Well, everyone got along except the grouper. He had a habit of being a little bit too finsy with the other fish.
And the 220 inch great white shark.
27:23 This is the real horror of this game. You think a great white is bad? that little half-foot long Betta is the real monster. That thing could body every single other fish in that pond AND anything else unfortunate enough to get in. They're the Wolverine of the lake, the Iron Fist of the ocean, the Batman of the sea. Guy is lucky it was feeling generous and didn't put him six feet under right there and then when he caught it.
The Beta was .6in not 6in
@@ianfinrir8724 ...Well uh, erm...its still pretty bad just being a Betta.
For a Betta its pretty damn alpha
Wait what does a bettafish do exactly?
@@AriTheMothQueen en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siamese_fighting_fish
Its a highly aggressive and territorial fish often attacking each other to death.
Fun fact: in my country pitting these fishes was a kind of gambling blood sport (akin to cockfighting), at least until its outlawed
What, y'all ain't ever gone saltfreshdeepwater fishing?
Nah, I’ve only gone fishing in deep saltwater lakes
3 in 1 baby!😆
Just remember: It's not a real game if it doesn't have a fishing minigame.
It's not a reel game unless it has a fishing mini game
Alpharad 2019
My game doesn’t have a fishing mini game....
The fishing _is_ the game
It’s a fishing game
That's why I love Digimon world 1 lmao
"its a lot more green than I remember it."
Well if you were playing on a gameboy color then that wouldn't be a problem, would it?
unless it's not the original model (pocket and light were in grayscale)
I love the way the fish you catch become increasingly surreal. Also, the father in the story is a goddamn idiot. "Gee, I better rescue my daughter by killing the shit out of her!" Pretty sure I'd rather be married to a bird monster than dead in a lake. What a great dad.
That's Inuit mythos for ya!
Another shtick is to use every part of the hunted animal otherwise its spirit will haunt you. So many seals barking...
Junji ito ?
He wasn't trying to save his daughter any more at that point, he was trying to save himself by getting rid of what the spirit wanted from him.
@@obsidironpumicia4074 Also, since seals are saltwater creatures, they're constantly thirsty so before one dies, you have to give it one last drink of freshwater
@@obsidironpumicia4074 "shtick"? That's to make sure nothing of the hunted animal goes to waste unlike today's wasteful society.
[sees obviously a human skeleton in the sand]
Huh, I guess it’s an animal skeleton. Let’s keep going.
Where ?
Where in the video does it say that
@@errorbirdesther
At 36:29?
Not literally since they exaggerated it for a joke, but it still referred to the clearly human remains as animal bones.
@@regenbogenwolf okay thanks
I mean technically humans are animals...
The way the monster walks at 43:51 It makes me laugh each time I replay it. It’s so querky and it fits the music.
Mr. H. I’m laughing now that you mentioned it. Looks like a naked old man.
Tysm for pointing this out. I hadn't even noticed. He's just kickin' his feet into the air,,, I love it
I kept expecting one of the “You caught a:” results to be an incomprehensible eldrich horror.
"You caught a glimpse of the unfathomable horrors of the deep bringing about the immediate collapse of your civilisation as you know it"
I was legitimately surprised the "You caught a:" result didn't reveal the monster's head before showing it from behind the result card.
Not gonna lie I was waiting for the catch to be one of Sedna’s fingers
So a seal, basically
I was expecting a body
I was expecting a key or a finger to pop out of the worm minigame
I expected her head
But based on the mith her finger transforming into an animal creature
I like the bird
He say ᶜᵃʰʷ
I like the bird as well
They all did that
They tend to do that
Ikr birds say that a lot

I remember someone from the cult museum horror game saying that there should be more game boy styled horror games, specially because of the color limitation or something like that.
I hope that person sees this :D
i know you posted this a while ago, and you probably knew already, but this is actually by the same person as the museum one (assuming you mean the third shift)
@@kaylahope6566 No, I didn't know! Yes, but I was talking about someone in the comment section of Alpha's The Third Shift walkthrough.
I'm glad this dev keeps making this type of content. I hope to see more soon!
I'm guessing the Gameboy style is the retro horror game style of the day.
We haven't been the same ever since duck hunt
Then, we have Atari and N64 style, thanks to Airdorf Games...
What else we have in store?
it's literally just this guy and someone else who make gb style games, and only lumpytouch who does the gb style animations, that's it dude
Wow, that has to be the most diversified pond I've ever seen.
I'm the only one who for the first 30 minutes was like "mh, let see what he get with the next catch!" And then remembered that I was watching this gameplay for the creepy part where something strange happens?
Yes. Yes you are.
No
I just LOVE fishing mini games for some reason. Like I wanted to just get rid of the horror and just watch fishin
DragHo92 everytime the fish refuses to come closer and eventually fights back I’m like “Come on! Just come out!” Like I’m literally encouraging this..
the crows in this game: AH
Just watched a vid with a murderer named ezra. Small internet.
@@hypedjo Ohh shit this world is getting too small
It sounded like a kid saying mom
Hearing of Sedna being mentioned in this game, and hearing Sam o’Nella’s discussion about her, I know how temperamental she is when it comes to disrespecting her.
Wait which video? I love Sam but can't remember it!
The one about Inuit folklore where Sedna says “HE COULDA MOVED! THAT’S IT-NO MORE FINGY FOODS FOR THREE MOONS!”
Ohhh I kinda remember it, I think I just watched it once, going to do it now thx!
This feels like a lumpytouch video made into a game, it even has the weird added voice and creepy atmosphere.
I want just a infinite version of the fishin part
SPOILERS
44:20 "It's been a while since I last heard from my friend"
44:39 "They say the lake was combed over every inch of its floor by a diving expedition..."
44:49 "The only thing they could catch were some of the largest trout they'd ever seen..."
BUDDY NOOOOOO!!!!
He got turned into a fish?
@@redandinata4568 He was sacrificed for bountiful fish. After insisting we continue to stay and fish despite things being obviously bad, and then sending us back into the house to get the keys, it's harder to feel like he wasn't lowkey trying to get us killed though.
But why would he do that though?
@@redandinata4568 If the intention for sending us back into the house for the keys is to get us killed, then I'd say his reason was to save his own skin. Morally wrong, but to him he did what he had to.
Can't think of a reason why he WOULDN'T yet tho. I'm sure there's a reason but I don't have time to review the video right now.
@@redandinata4568 there is a part in the game right before the final fishing session where your friend asks you " want to go fishing one more time buddy"? and promps a yes or no. If you refuse it, then the friend gets upset and goes fishing alone at night. When the proceeding day arrives, and you walk to his door he starts to speak in broken sentences. When you leave the cabin, the ending ensues. When the friend drops you off at home, you try to walk to the side window to thank him and notice his eyes are of a dead fish. Sedna enchanted him...and he drives back to the cabin.
sees game inspired by inuit mythology
"THAT'S IT, NO MORE FINGIE FOODS FOR THREE MOONS!"
The Danley Parable that’s what they get for not facing north when eating blubber
@@wyattkohles5411 but they were on the pole!
@@Wombattlr they could've moved!
sedna's fingers are specifically said to become whales, seals, and walruses, and that you placate her by grooming her hair
“THATS IT! NO MORE FINGIE FOODS FOR THREE MOONS!”
I really enjoyed the sound design in this one. Everything about the fishing just sounded so clean, clear, and calming, which made certain other parts better by their contrast.
I remember watching this the same week COVID international quarantined were beginning. Crazy to think that was 2 years ago. This game is so memorable to me cause of the jolly theme song, and gradual descent into the supernatural horror. A fantastically written game!
I wish I’d never gone on that damned...
*Happy Music*
Its facinating to me how two things can come together so.. well.. y'know? I don't think I'd just go "Aha, Gameboy + Inuit Folklore" in 1,000,000 yeard
Nobody’s going to question the odd voice in the background as I catch fish
@Creatotron no, everytime ive ever caught a fish theres always a voice from behind me proclaiming, "YOU CAUGHT A..."
The stove looks like it's smiling
That’s either super adorable or a really bad sign.
@@Flowerbarrel In case of horror games it's always the latter
the night fishing segment was so tense, like a feeling of being stalked.
If you pay attention, you can see someone or something watching you.
Seems like we finally moved away from 2D Mega Man plattformers, we now got back into survival horrors from the 90's in the form of PS1 and Game Boy games.
ps1 90`s?
@@capscaps04 PS1 came in 1994 but RE came out in 97 that made survival horror popular. Although Alone in the dark came out in roughly 93 but with clunky mechanic
@@capscaps04 I think he's talking about the craze for PS1-themed horror games that swept through the indie game development scene following the "PS1 Horror Game Jam".
@@hanchiman I don`t know about it, RE1 was very popular too when it came out. It had a lot of fans.
Not to mention ps1 had other horror games besides silent Hill and resident evil...but were mostly hidden gems...even shadow man at which was not a survival horror game and I still found it creepy
Random moments I got shocked a bit
20:37 A Hand In the lake.
32:29 A Head in the lake.
You were clearly asking to pull some creepy shit out of that lake, casting your line into its darkest corners.
The scariest thing in this game is your friend's blind obsession with continuing to fish despite the circumstances... lol
For real though, using the "gameboy's" limited freedom of choice makes for an excellent stifling, anxiety inducing little horror game. Even if you want to leave on day one, sorry! You're either digging up happy worms, fishing, or going to bed :)
32:30 hol' up
I saw that rotting bitch
I recognize the bodies in the water!

4:11 "Ahh, just like I remember it. A bit more green though." But everything is green...
21:40 he caught the funny fish
"A dirty bed. It looks like it's been used recently"
*-oof*
39:41 WHAT!!!? What kind of lake is this ?
I kept waiting for it to be like... YOU CAUGHT... SCARY MONSTER
Aw yes, the most regular lakefish: swordfish and sunfish
Don't forget the white shark
Sunfish are actually freshwater ... or am I thinking of panfish?
@@ErebusTheDragonn Sunfish are exclusively salt water
Arctic Dino a damn jellyfish
1:06 I really want to believe that's a reference to The Third Shift
hmmmm
you may be on to something
it probably is

worm dance
Jasper Fritse Thank you.
now THIS is a top-quality comment
worm disco
"Alright that's enough fishing."
Yeah if i caught a bunch of Sponges i would too call it a day.
*”I caught a sea bass! What?! You again?!"*
Animal Crossing.
"A Sea Bass! It's at least a C+!"
Anyone fast forward to the scary parts because these games usually have such a long burn until stuff starts popping off?
old ps1 styled horror and game boy horror games are terribly underrated,this is creepy,and I watched the third shift and this game late at night😭
Ngl I liked the music during the mini game where you dig for worms
When he got the keys and the music started blasting and the guy busted in I fucking screamed out loud holy shit
*Me after reading the title*
"Aww yeah, Imma see an ice wurm and the qualapaluk!"
"...each version offers the same conclusion"... That's pretty ominous right there.
Everyone talking about the fish, but has anyone noticed the worm mini game theme song is lowkey fire?
I don't know... there's something *fishy* about this game
WHY
Out.
Someone had to do it, but that doesn't acquit you
Out now.
WATER you talking about, it's just a normal fishing game. (Sorry people, I just couldn't help myself.)
No no no, the scariest thing is the rare aspect ratio of this video. Always catches me off guard with these appropriate resolutions.
They missed an opportunity not making the player sick while fishing.
"You caught a...
COLD!"
Dunno about Sedna, but the protagonist is a God tier fisherman, catching a great white with just a rod and reel. He could probably even catch Sedna if she wasn't careful.
The aquatic life remain stationary in the water, because they're frozen in fear by the deadly gaze of the protagonist, the Chuck Norris of the fishing industry!!
3:43 the stove has a face! wonder if this was intentional, kinda cute tho.
19:38 "Have you seen my carrots?"
The thing that's bothering me the most isn't that you can catch weird fish in a lake, but the lack of commentary XD
I mean I'm used to him/her not saying anything, but it's just making it pretty unsettling when I see how they pause and just stare at the point where they saw something creepy happen but they don't say anything to it- maybe it's just me lol
Your Friend after running out of the cabin after coming face with a mythological monster
"hEy BuddY I gOT DibS On ThAT RoOm!"
that goldfish knows what's going on
It's seen it all lol
I love how that left shoe is foreshadow later
Hol up, did the last two games you played did a Fusion dance creating this?!
Yeah, it seems _fishy_ ...
I'll see myself out.
The third Earl's day shift is the strongest fusion
Oh shit, I just noticed that.
Is this what Homeworld thinks of fusion?
Few horror games actually freak me out. This one sure did.
For a moment i thought all the fish he capture was people converted (other fishers), then in the bad ending the boy will be converted in one of these fishes, (And that explain why there is so much exotic fish)
Man, that would be really cool
That's a suspicious amount of fishers.
You watch one horror fishing video and suddenly there's a million of them. Granted, these are good, so it's not a problem, but still
32:30
Watching this video at 3AM.
ME: What was that? I mean really!
What the HECK was that?!
After catch a sponge at that spot.
ME: Oh, never mind.... that was just a sponge... Yea...
Holy biscuts i missed that! Good eye!
20:38 uh oh spaghettio
The fishing line being pulled sounds like a drink being sucked through a straw when the cup is almost empty.
That jumpscare in Ending A literally made me say "HOLY MOTHER OF GOD"
What jumpscare?
"A bit more green though" HA 😂😂 Nice touch
"alright, that's enough fishing for today"
couldn't have said it better
"a bit more green though..." classic gameboy joke :D
I love how the happy music still plays as you're being chased by a lake monster man.
I like how your friend just bolts home and doesn’t walk with you lol
Very few times have I been so grateful for an add as about the 34:30 minute marker. Great stress reliever
*casts line*
Oh boy! I bet I’ll catch something great!
*gets a bite*
This is gonna be awesome!
*reels it in*
Oh yeah!
*You caught a....tin can! Six inches*
Woooooohooooooo!!
i really like Alpha Beta Gamer my fav place to find good games
Alright, I think that's enough fishing for the rest of my life.
horror games, let alone older games in general, are somehow much scarier than newer ones
43:12 of course he conveniently left the keys inside the house
ABG, are you just putting out videos of all the Fishing Horror Jam game entries in a row?
I really hope that's what you're doing, and absolutely support it if so
I'm at 9:14 and I'm guessing they're gonna fish up a dead body or things related to a dead body (ie clothes) eventually in the game will update as I continue watching
Edit #1: 14:37 I totally think the music will get slower, also at the window scene when you sleep there's definitely gonna be a face there eventually and if there isn't I'm going to be disappointed
Edit #2: Welp,
Edit #3: 37:53 oh no
Oh no sure is right hbwhsbwisnsi
I only got to the part with the second shoe as I write this, but I feel like he definitely knows whose it is, probably the bones from before??
I love how at any point they couldve used the You've Caught A.... as a jumpscare. but instead its the unsettling disconnect of pulling a damn octopus out of a lake that drives the horror and tension. I got drunk, fell asleep and woke back up at the night fishing section which made it all the more disturbing.
Unrelated to anything in the game but your friend is referred to by they/them and I just thinks that's rly neat :)
I saw it in the beginning and i was like "oh? Was that a slip up" but they're referred to like 4 times in the end diologue
What an obscure ass place to get rep from lmao
Gamers please don't fucking eat my bones for this comment lmao
I've been trying to be more general in my dialogue so anyone can feel welcome, I hope I did alright.
27:27 Time to get spoopy~
36:21 Oh hello there~
37:38 Oh hey, look at that, we got the other shoe, look friend, we got the full pair!
...don't mind the foot, we'll just toss it back. :D
39:12 That gold fish has seen some shit.
43:39 Hi uncle, uh, care to let us go free?
43:50 OH SHIT HI BYE WE'RE LEAVING I'M SORRY-
45:25 Yeaaah, that's enough fishing, we fished up a damn great white shark with our fishing pole I can't-
49:15 Welp, I guess this timeline we decided to be a sacrifice, either that or she wanted to give us a big hug and say hi. X'D
I thought fishing was supposed to be relaxing but alpha beta gamer shows us that the most mundane activity can quickly turn into a nightmare...working on a supermarket, fishing,working night shift what's next?...gardening horror style game,clerk horror style game,shoes salesman horror style game,janitor horror style game? Lol
"catching saltwater fish in a lake?"
Is that really what y'all are focused on? Never mind using worms as bait to hook a sponge
I like how you go into detail about the game in the video title
Those who wore headphones can hear the eerie music background
Whats with the horror fishing games lately?
He didn't pick up the shovel next to the tunnel to keep digging it out for ending C. That's my guess.
They're all from a game jam which theme is "fishing horror"
Ah yes, more absolutely terrifying fishing game! I cannot wait for my night terrors!
Well.... I'm never going fishing again
