Welcome to the You Wish It Was Cold Outside Club, how You Wish It Was Cold Outside are ya?
Day 135 of asking Manly to play A Cold Love Story through RUclips comments
Hm very
I love global warming
Very cold rn
Yeah it a blizzard outside but I've been through worse.
i just now realized
augustine = summer, red, hot tempered
winnie = winter, blue, calmer temperament. theyre literally named summer and winter
I just realized something as well, you know the hole Augustine falls down? It's shaped like an elk!
red oni, blue oni
Augustine= august!!
they're*
@@planetsaturn222 no, really?
For Manly to play it it has to have:
1) Horror.
2) Romance.
3) Top Ten Anime Betrayals.
And had dipped into all three at some point
the bromance in this brought me to tears
Bromance*
@@cherilynsarts8845 why are you in every comment mentioning romance its never that serious girl
@@helpme744 they get pissed off whenever somebody mentions romance of 2 characters
- So how much bromance would you like in your game?
- Yes.
If you're not a little bit in love with your friends are you even doing friendship right?
@@ThornShadowWolf It’s a little bromance
@@ThornShadowWolf fr
At the end of the bad end, Augustine himself got the attention he wanted, but because everyone's pitying him, the thing that his friend was afraid of.
Once they find out about the friend, things are gonna get very different…
@@twindrill2852 they knew Winnie died though. One of them says "despite you losing a friend"
yeah and he also assumes what winnie thought of him
Notice too how the last line of that ending was colored BLUE instead of ORANGE.
@@cartooncritique6625 wild
Notice how in the bad end 40:39 , Auggie has blue text and a blue shirt. It's because he took Winnie's place just like how he thought Winnie took his. I'm surprised Manly, and other ppl in the comments haven't pointed this out yet.
also has auggies smile and pose from the intro
That's sad lmao
Holy- great attention to detail!
Now I wanna cry harder
Yep noticed that too! Was looking for this comment cuz I was surprised manly didn’t notice lol
Another good thing to note about the story is how the theme in the beginning when Augustine told Winnie not to project how he thought others would react eventually played itself by having Augustine project how he thought Winnie felt.
Oh, I'm surprised I didn't even notice that. That's a neat parallel
Yoo you right
Yeah yeah I noticed it too! And I was like bro, for your own sake, follow your own advice!!
I have the exact same issue as Winnie and yeah, easier said than done. The behavior is usually taught through trauma and bad experiences so to actually emotionally adopt a way to not do that while your mind has developed that behavior as a survival method because of what you went through is not an easy task and it's very very easy to fall back to that tactic.
I interpret it as Augustine getting to personally feel what it's like to fall into that trap (instead of just make comment about it from the outside) and be just as capable and likely to do the same thing he tells Winnie not to do (once the situation puts him in a spot where that projection would happen).
@@99sins you couldn't be more spot on with what you said. My brain has been trained to be emotionally & mentally abused so I always tend to think everyone has negative feelings towards me. It also has trained my brain so many other unfortunate aspects. It is hard to break yourself free from those feelings when they were drilled into you for so long. 💔
Manly be like "You have no choice in the manner. You will be hugged. Friendship is mandatory."
Ah yes, the new my little pony series.
you WILL have a good day!
EVERYTHING is going to be okay!
Yeah, im kinda oit of ideas for "agressive positiity"
@@user-kk9xt5yp9e kinky right
@@wildfire9280 Friendship is a magic you can no longer say no to.
Friendship be like the Borg, you WILL be assimilated/hugged.
Ok, an anime pair/couple/group finally did the thing we all scream at Anime for characters to do.
TALK TO EACH OTHER.
It is ridiculous how much that solves everyone’s problems.
Also it was heartwarming and nice. I enjoyed it, thank you for playing and letting us watch, Manly!!
They are friends.
@@cherilynsarts8845 Tfw you get sick of the excessive shipping and just want friendship
Couple of friends! I worded that the wrong way lol.
@@cherilynsarts8845 "Pair" can be just friends though
@@cherilynsarts8845 tfw u hate the idea of two characters being a couple so much that u lose ur grasp on the human language lolol
These two are a slapstick comedy duo honestly. I had quite a laugh.
Abbott and Costello classic baybeeee

The snowman part was so funny
The bad ending made me cry
IT'S NOT LIKE THEY NEVER SEE EACH OTHER AGAIN, RIGHT???
IT'S JUST COLLEGE, RIGHT???
THEY'LL STILL BE TOGETHER RIGHT?!?
FUCK, MY HEART
I don’t think so😭😭😭
I just think they are both so ambitious that being with each other would only lead to strife
Loved them tho
No, they dated and got married a couple months later (canon)
@@boombams5736 Yes this is indeed canon in our hearts
no they were just roommates.@@boombams5736
@@Ilovecrazymen Headcanon, more like heartcanon?
i was so scared Winnie was gonna be dead in both endings, if so i would have cried.
My guess is in the bad ending, being pushed at the stairway made Winnie lose the will to live.
fr bro, i also thought augustine talking about how his choice could not change anything was true. guess it was just him trying to convince himself he did nothing wrong.
Winnie is not dead in good end he just not with aug anymore
The both ending tell us how winnie leave aug its either dead or moving to new house
Winnie should have died in both. It would have been a substantially better story.
@@far2ez that's not guaranteed, a sedder one, yes, but it isn't guaranteed it would be a better one
I laughed out loud at
"Oh no, fire my only weakness! And friendship! But mostly the fire!"
🤣🤣🤣
I really expected the protags to smooch by the end. Red and Blue characters that are foils to each other always give off romance vibes.
They look so much like a couple tho (or that they could become one)
AGH me too! I was also expecting a kiss by the end!! XD
Bruh....
Can't two guys just have a healthy bromance without it being romantic?
@@dangerkoopa64 I mean, nobody said they can't..? I'm just chilling here, down for whatever, but anyway some pep just like romance ;)
This game touches home to me. Also, I feel this is a mix between the movie that Manly was referring to and a creepypasta.
It's clearly not like this game but it still hit home. I never get a friend who looks up to me that I'm aware of. But I did have a friend who betrayed me in Elementary school for "cool" and "popular" kids. So, yeah this game hits home.
@@callieprotector Same for me
Same. I'm always super paranoid that way I perceive my friends is completely different than the way they perceive me. :(
THIS GAME IS SO HURTFUL
I always overthink my friendships because I’m often abandoned for cooler people
(Even tho part of the problem is my self-victimization)
4:47 and 40:40 are just the same shot of Auggie smiling, but the first is his and the latter isn't.
Auggie just pulled a skinwalker and stole Winnie's life, as indicated by the blue text, blue shirt and him wearing Winnie signature smile. What's wierd though is that Winnie's smile was just an imitation of young Aug in the first place. But Aug doesn't know this. He just thinks Winnie is a happier and better person. And now that he has his life its all his. Not realizing it was his to begin with.
THANK YOU, I was looking for an explanation on why the text was blue at the bad end! Manly even said that the colors would probably do something like that early in the video but he either missed it or didn’t comment on it.
@@anthonycastaldo2050 Apparently he's not the only one who missed it. I'm floored how everyone missed it. smh
4:47 and 48:09 too, it's a cute scene but with reversed roles
it's*
I'm surprised Aug got a good ending despite what he did; the usual trope is that everybody suffers when it comes to bad ends.
Winnie steals even his status as the uninjured passenger LMAO, Augie's got NOTHING, lol
HELP lmaooo
Mending broken friendships... forgiveness... metaphorical dream-like spaces... and most important, stairs...
It reminds me of another RPGMaker game
Close
which game?
@@Sleepster spoiler:
Omori
@@weeb_dweeb NOOOOOOO THE MEMORIES
@@weeb_dweeb Ahahaha.... I'm sad now.
I really liked how this game resembles the two games Manly played recently, the Sun and Moon girlfriends and the one where he is inside a car and has to shoot a deer monster.
I think it was a wolf
@@littlemayo7136 nah it was a deer, at the end it steals the car, i saw the video yesterday
It reminds me of his old content and its refreshing
Wasn't it like a hog? There's no way that was a deer. The deers were walking around but the "monster" could be an animal person that's a hog
@@Kyumifun maybe, i didn't really pay close attention to the moster itself
This game resonates on a scary level with me. I really assume the worst out of people most of the time and never try to reach put because of that because I worry they will hurt me, or use me, or bully me if i do. But seeing this makes me realise that maybe they have a really different perspective to it and actually care. It's a big conclusion to come to from just a game but idk
Unfortunately in real life there are people that do use other people and don't value relationships. However there are people that do. You have to understand the small signs people give you. One big is are you just someone they find when they are bored, or do they actually make a real effort to mame time for you even when tired or feeling lazy. Do they pick up the p hone when you call, even when busy? Are they willingly to talk and argue without threatening to end the relationship? Lastly, do they actually do what they say they will do?
These are things you need to look for. People will make excuses, but don't accept the excuses don't normalize it either. Hold people accountable and understand you deserve more. Keep these things in mind and you will find those that are genuine.
SAME HERE
I just realize when Augustine feels like he was betrayed, he doesn't call Winnie's name but just say "He", "Him" or "His" bruh D: but not mentioning his name
I really liked this game. Seeing more and more short indie games like this is really inspiring and I’m itching to make one of my own.
Do it
DO IT COWARD!
I've been thinking about it as well, I just don't know how ^^;
Me too! ☺️

Choose a game engine (I recommend Unity for beginners) and learn a coding language (C# for Unity). If you're very keen to make your game as polished and professional looking as possible, you also gotta learn a bit about how to produce music and make art like CGs, but since that's VERY hard to do, you'll most likely need to work with a team. (But not NECESSARILY).
This game uses RPG maker, though.
I've been in the snow before. My fingers were cold and numb, despite me wearing 2-3 pairs of gloves. I drunk a hot cup of cocoa with extra multicolored sprinkles, extra whipped cream and a LOT of marshmallows. It was the best memory I had as a child...
I live in the snow, it's a huge pain in the butt lol. Unfortunately I'm so acclimated to it that I walk around in it wearing shorts, I don't even need shoes. Temperatures above 70f though and I'm DYING. I can't imagine living anywhere else without bursting into flames like a vampire in the sun.

Hey, uh, would you kindly tell me what anime or game your profile pic is from?
never been in snow or seen real snow
I think I saw someone say in the bad end maybe the reason Winnie dies is because he lost all will to living after being pushed in the “coma space” by his best friend and that absolutely destroyed me
just felt a little overexplained at the end, but the rest of it felt very well built. I really liked the overworld style and interactive bits.

@@walterbrink5391 how else could I be an attac mage?
@@AttacMage i like to play that game lol
It's only 'overexplained' because they had an actual healthy conversation about their feelings
@@ASHERUISE Nah the characters having a conversation about their feelings is fine but the thing about being in their mind-scape was just a bit lengthy. We didn't need to have everything explained like why there was a difference in their clothes or the concept about them remembering their past and being stuck in it to the degree they did. It could have been more subtle.
I like the story overall, but I would like to come to Augustine's defense a bit.
I, fortunately, haven't been in Augustine's situation yet, but I do feel for him a lot, coming from a person who also has to combat much anxiety due to mental illness. He, himself, is the person that knows best that these emotions are not healthy, and he doesn't want them, but they come nonetheless. Augustine always cares for Winnie, despising his feeling about the relationship, even after the fall and during the car-crashed-indulged-shared-mental-hallucination. That is what it is like for me sometimes in a relationship, combat unhealthy feelings but also care about the other person. The thought of having to talk to the other person about these feelings, either confirms these feelings are true or risks changing the relationship for better or worse.
About Winnie, I agree with Manly that he should not be sorry about his success but that is not the thing that makes Augustine feel the way he feels. In this relationship, I don't really know how much he knows about Augustine's feelings to say that he didn't reach out to Augustine, but one thing I know for sure is that he did put Augustine in the position that Augustine didn't want to be an idol. When he did that, he, to some extent, stop consider Augustine to be an actual person of his own but a blueprint for what he wanted to do, unintentionally becoming a better version of Augustine.
In the end, they both make the same decision by making the decision for the other person, only when things get to a boiling point do they actually want to talk it out, because they both care for each other. I'm saying this not to clear Augustine of all fault or even to villainize Winnie. I'm saying this to offer the other perspective and want people to normalize feeling this type of shit. When someone actually feels like this, other people do not vilify them for this, and let them feel that they can talk about it without hearing people say "What's wrong with you!?."
Thank you for reading this, I would love to hear from our perspective as well in the comment.
Well it does sound like Winnie went after Augustine's crush at one point, maybe more than once. That might have been a coincidence, but if they were close, he probably should have had some idea of that. If he did, that is quite the line to cross. So I don't know about not blaming himself at least a little.
And perhaps he could have expressed not wanting to replace his friend on their team in some way. He HAD to have at least been aware of how that would affect him. Even if Auggie never brought it up, you're replacing someone at something they enjoy doing. You'd have to be pretty oblivious, or like you said, not even seeing them as exactly a person. So while he's not much to blame here, he's surely not completely blameless.
Auggie himself almost seems to not have realized that Winnie was copying him and that he resented it until very recently. If so, I guess neither of them could have helped it.
Honestly I think they both had pretty unhealthy views of not just each other, but the world around them. One of them saw the other as something of a social parasite while the other idolized the other like they were some sorta god. Both probably had different kinds of attachment and insecurity issues but I wouldn't villainize either of them either since they both, imo, equally needed help. Bad ending obviously hurt, but so did the good ending in a different way since I can empathize with both of the characters in this playthrough, on one hand being inclined to want to copy someone I look up to because they inspire me but I don't always know how to properly convey or act upon that feeling, and often assuming others think the worst of me because I never feel good enough for anyone. It's not a good place to be, just like the blizzard is bad to stick around in, but I'm glad this story did have a happy ending option because as long as anyone is still alive, there's always more choices to be made and more opportunities to change the road you're on. Still though, I must admit that I called the MC toxic pretty quickly because of how quickly I realized what was really happening, pot calling the kettle black much? Ugh I hate past me as well ^^'
nah he's just an asshole bro lol
TL;DR
The protag got learned helplesness from being copied. He blames himself but that's actually a form of abuse: make someone think they can't do anything, that nothing they do matters. Stealing the scene, robbing the show, taking someone's thunder constantly, having to be the center of attention, making that person want to shut themselves in and not even try is vile. Especially being privileged and gaining success from other's ideas, executing them with resources they don't have.
38:15 ayo the pizza here
one of the most dramatic and thematically appropriate "you're gonna burn alright"s i've ever seen. in all seriousness though, i really like this game! the art is beautiful and the symbolism is really neat too, from the concept of the cold front itself to smaller details like Augustine's text turning blue in the bad ending. also, Manly voicing the ManBearElk was amazing
Hm

Only their second game? This is excellent work. Pitched just right, good art, and a cute monster.
Give him the f*cking coat. This is not a drill.
He didn't even check if there was anything that could help in the bag!
LOOK IN THE BAG AT LEAST
i had a feeling when "winnie" said all that stuff to auggie that it was something to do about paranoia. i get that sometimes actually, so the fact i connected with that kinda scaresm me
the "ask augustine about the stairs" makes sense too; he wasn't asking why he was pushed down (close your eyesss you'll be here soon) but was asking why he didn't help him. that part was winnie's memory, i'm sure
overall this game is really good, i really enjoyed it :]
This was emotional. Kinda hurts me on a personal level...
I clicked because I liked the art style in the thumbnail. Instantly became WAY interested as soon as I saw the perspective angle. Love the design choice!
Edit:
Though, I will say, the good ending was a bit too explanatory. I prefer when stories let us connect the dots on our own. I get at least some of that needs to be explained, & the friends needed to communicate,, though if Winnie is slowly freezing to the point he couldn't feel his hands, their focus would be on survival, not theorizing. Overall, I did still like it a lot!
To give my opinion on the explanations at the end, I kinda like it here. It's like pretty funny or at least amusing and I find that it develops Winnie and Augustine a bit more. Plus it feels really like something that would be actually done if this was a real situation? You said they should have prioritized surviving but the house seemed like pretty safe for how long they have been there unbothered and they had to think about there situation and find a way to solve it somehow.
Edit: so I forgot about the freezing, they had the lighter so they would have off set that for a bit at least
*auggie broke winnie's heart so badly winnie physically died*
I genuinely said 'WHAT' when you said this was a game jam game. One month it took them to make this?? Thats impressive!
What's so impressive? It's a visual novel with a tiny amount of walking sim involved. There's basically no game here. Just graphics, and most of Augustine's graphics in particular are comedically repetitive.
That's*
Misunderstandings are inevitable, but communication will carry you through it all~
surprising how easy it is to be friends when you're not constantly trying to find hierarchies or comparisons and want to be equal
It reminds me of my best friend- we've been friends since our highschool years and we're still best of friends over fifteen years later. I did have much admiration towards her and she did the same towards me. It's hard not to jealous at times about such achievements, but at least we're able to see their achievements as our achievements as well, and view it as another way of becoming better people and better friends, even now. I liked this story a lot- maybe I'll look into where I can get the game and send the link over to her. She'll probably enjoy it just as much as I did.
Thanks for the lets play! Always a pleasure to watch, Manly! thanks for recommending another great game.
That's nice, I've never had a bestfriend
I actually think the "bad" ending is a cool subtle horror, cause yes the protagonist is happy, but he's happy /because/ his friend died and he gets to replace him, so the horror of it is that in this "happy" ending the main character has become a bad person.
I NEED to rant about how CUTE Winnie's design is😍
I'd read enough manga with yandere bois in it that I'd recognize that "childhood friends gone distant with one of em having that creepy hidden face shot" anywhere

The game is rather well made; solid characters, good writing, and the reveal is well executed.
The themes of friendship and communication and dealing with internal insecurities were overt but charming in there implementation.
The art was expressive and vivid, pleasant in experience.
Where I think the game wains on me is when Winnie starts to explain all of the nuisances that where shown in the game.
My emersion broke in that later third due to this. The game didn't need to explain itself at the end of the second route, it already did through the experience of the game.
Overall I'm very impressed with it, and with this being the developers second game is commendable.
Cold Front was a fun experience, but I don't think I'll play it again any time soon.
Agreed, but Winnie should have died in both endings. The entire thing falls flat in the good ending as a result. It's a cheap happy ending to please the teenagers in the audience, but overall leaving Winnie dead is much more powerful. It's a statement about life, appreciating what you have, and not letting you get in your own way. Get out of your head and appreciate those you love, because a freak car accident CAN happen and DOES to many people; you don't get an anime redemption arc in a coma just because it's a happy ending. You get regret.
Augustine's lesson shouldn't have been to bro it up in the last second with his bud who helpfully exposited it all for him. It should have been that some mistakes cannot be fixed and that you need to live life with that in mind.
@@far2ez honestly i dont think the good ending is any worse than the bad one, nor is it a cheap happy ending for children. it wouldve been pretty cool if winnie stayed dead and they reconciled in his last moments, but its ultimately just as good when he's still alive because of your actions. imo the ending doesn't necessarily have to be sad to be meaningful, it just gives off a different message. just as people die all the time in situations like these irl, so do they survive and reconcile their relationship after such a near death experience. its more so a message about learning to communicate, how friendships can mend with time, etc.
i think the problem is less that he survived and more that the way in which he survived was very anime and unrealistic (which wouldnt have been a problem if he was secretly dead the whole time) and was full of exposition, thereby making the ending feel less powerful overall. i personally think that your idea is extremely cool and would make a good third ending, but i don't see why we should put one idea down to raise another
I feel like the conversation they had was like two bros fiercely smooched and
Winnie: no homo?
Auggie: no homo.
I adore the art style so much what the heck,, the sprites are so cute 😳😩
Also how the fuck are the subtle jump scares so effective like-
Ikrrrr
The body suit and distorted winnie scared me lollllll 💀
I don’t care if anybody sees this or not, but at this exact moment I’m super drunk and got completely fucked up by my cat, covered in scratches. It wasn’t her fault, i tried carrying her inside and i forgot about the dog our family was dog sitting, so she went berserk with her claws, so I don’t blame her. All i gotta say is this hurts, but thanks for the content as always manly
Thats crazy
you earned it buddy
I really liked this. All the friendships, please. I theorized that auntie was superimposing his own insecurities onto Winnie, that's why he said such bitter things in the beginning. It was kind of a role reversal from their childhood selves. Also I know the cold was supposed to be a flashback to their winter memories, but wouldn't it be interesting if it also represented them getting closer to death like rigor mortis setting in. That's why Winnie is so much colder that Augustine because he was on the driver's side. Everything was also really well foreshadowed.
The protag got learned helplesness from being copied. He blames himself but that's actually a form of abuse: make someone think they can't do anything, that nothing they do matters. Stealing the scene, robbing the show, taking someone's thunder constantly, having to be the center of attention, making that person want to shut themselves in and not even try is vile. Especially being privileged and gaining success from other's ideas, executing them with resources they don't have. Like, getting on specific competitive events just to outshine your friend (rather than applying your talents anywhere else where you'd succeed and he wouldn't) isn't a good look for a friend. I'd start hiding my interests or break the friendship up, like, Jesus
So if manbearpig appears during climate change, then ManbearElk appears during a shift in relationships lol
they're both 50%man 50% bear and 50% pig/elk
How does that math work lol? @@TemmiePlays
I really wish that at 48:30ish, after they pounded fists, that Augustine woke up and found that Winnie was dead anyway.
It would've hit far harder that, indeed, no matter what, there wasn't any kind of supernatural friendship trope hiding behind the coma. It was just Augustine replaying his memories with his best friend, and he had the choice to either betray that friend and take joy in his death or to realize what he was doing, forgive his friend, and then have to come to terms with losing him because he was a bad friend.
It's a much more powerful message. Appreciate and communicate with the people you love in your life, because you won't get some kind of anime last-minute redemption arc in a shared memory with them if you don't. They really can be gone in a split second car accident, "dead instantly" as in the bad end.
This was nice, particularly impressive for a game jam given their time restraints. All the art is great, the presentation is good, the story was interesting even with some self-acknowledged cliche decisions. I do feel our protagonist is forgiven a little too easily but that doesn't lessen it for me.

I really dig those two characters, although I find it abit strange how Augustine never tackled his previous fake ending where he actually did push em.
"Should I study for the exam?"
"Should I take a nap?"
BAD ENDING GO!
When Winnie begged Agustine to admit how he really felt, and the music swelled as he began to cry, and the colors turned bright and warm, I thought he was about to admit having romantic feelings for Winnie. A little disappointed that's not what happened, but it's nice to see emotional vulnerability portrayed in male friendship.
Emotions don't always have to be sexualized. Who hurt you?
Coming back here after dead plate!
Yeass me too!
SNAP BACK to reality with the power of fire and friendship or murder your friend in-between your life and death mind scape.
Not much actual gameplay and more like a visual novel with the occasional quick time. I really enjoy the different perspective and look forward to games that do it in rpgmaker.
if ya think about it, this game is like life is strange, where theres a bunch of choices, yet only 2 endings that all depend on a single choice
NO MATTER WHAT DARKNESS RESIDES WITHIN YOU, IT WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO STAND AGAINST THE BURNING FLAMES OF FRIENDSHIP!!

Honestly, my sincerest thanks to this game's creator and to Manly for posting this video, I was in need of an outlet that talked about those themes to confront some stuff in my personal life. I know this comment doesn't mean much, but even so, I wanted to express my gratitude. Thanks.
A lot of exposition at the end - but still, it was cute, enjoyable entertainment. Your voice acting really topped this story off to it's full potential :). So glad you played this.
This game is fantastic and one of the better RPG Maker Games out there. I just love the dynamic between the two main characters!
omori stairs made a comeback good for them
I wish that in the ending where Auggie pushes winnie theres an end credits scene showing him at Winnies funeral and Winnies mom gives him winnies diary and he reads it and realises that Winnie didn't want to steal everything from him but he actually idolizes him and thought that if he did the same things as him he would be happy, but when he fell down the stairs and Auggie didn't help him he thought he hated him and distanced himself away from him, the scene ends with Auggie dropping his Winnies diary and bursting into tears after realising what hes done
i prefer the ending in game 😭 his text turns blue at the end to show that he, in a way, became winnie. the whole time he was upset because he thought winnie was taking everything from him, and blinded by jealousy, he pushed him down the stairs. the thing he convinced himself winnie was doing to him was the exact same thing he did to winnie. he took everything winnie had, and even so, he didnt know he was the villain in the story.
the difference between the good ending and the bad ending is that they had an honest conversation with each other and understood how the other felt. he realized that winnie never did anything wrong and he had been making assumptions the entire time. if he realized he was wrong in both the good and bad endings, it wouldnt be as satisfying as the bad ending they already have imo.
that said, i wouldve loved to see an ending like that too.
Why is it that every anime game goes like:
"Great, so we both understand exactly what's happening here, because I just summarised it in excruciating detail?"
"Absolutely!"
"Excellent, well let's go through it from the top one more time!"
Okay but this made me cry in a good way, this game is so cathartic and Manly's voice really made the emotions real
OMG this game is also from racheldrawsthis.... just after im so invested with dead plate, the bromance (?) atmosphere is the first thing that i notice, though i know rachel just turn it into rivalry lol
Honestly they would work out as a couple lmao
I wish that in the ending where Augustine pushes Winnie there would be like a secret end credits scene of Augustine at Winnies funeral while mumbling to himself how much he hated him, and Winnies mom gives him Winnies diary and then Augustine reads it and realises that basically Winnie didn't want to steal everything from him but Winnie just idolizes him and thought that if he did the same things as Auggie it would impressive him, and that day when Winnie fell down the stairs and Auggie didn't help him, he thought that Auggie hated him or something which was why he distanced himself from him, and the scene ends with Auggie dropping Winnies diary and bursting into tears after realising what he has done and he looks off into the distance to see the ghost of Winnie looking at him with blue tears as he whispers " I'm sorry I made you feel that way Auggie, I really am sorry"
This hit so close to home, my heart was clenching the whole time. I'm in the middle of a similar experience (although much more mild) where I feel like my best friend is outperform ing me in a lot of the stuff I like to do and my paranoia is basically making me rot. I don't want to tell her of my jealousy though because I'm afraid it will drive us apart.
I feel like I'm being left behind. But I just sit back because in the end I'm happy for her. This game did make me reflect and I honestly feel like just letting go of it all at this point 🙃
11:53 I though the freckles on the green guy's face were tiny ten-ten eyes and laughed
Looks like the perfect opportunity to get closer to somebody and snuggle them 😉
Even if it used cliché tropes and ideas, this is such a cute and amazing game. The art style & the characters were so easy to fall in love with ;D
This,,, really hit into a current situation I'm in and gave me a new perspective on things. I'm not sure what else to say other than I really enjoyed watching you play this game as well as the developers behind it. :)
This LP was a wonderful watch. 😌
One of your best Mr. Hero. 👌🏽
Danke!
I really enjoy watching your gameplay videos!!
This game made me cry I feel bad for Augustine 😭
Living in the Midwest, tbh, I wouldn’t be too shocked if it were to suddenly start snowing in the middle of what is currently the hottest summer on record. We had snow and cold snaps clear into April this year.
Something should be said about Manly's voice acting talent! I loved the way he voiced them both, made the playthrough even more atmospheric. Overall, lovely game, and Winnie is precious, but it kinda bothered me how lightly they treated the fact that Augustine let him fall and didn't even call the ambulance. Like that's not a small thing, he could have died. Still a nice little story though, thematically everything fit together very well.
That was a lovely little VN. I think what helped it to stand out, despite being cliché in some areas, was its subject matter. The intricacies of friendship, especially close friendship, isn't really something often explored in this genre. Kudos to them, and thank you, Manly, for playing this! 🙂
I'm watching you for horror and scary, not to feel my heart beat!
Also, funny enough? This story is *seemingly* eerily similar to a real life situation between two lovers named Joe Orton and Kenneth Halliwell...Except...it does have a bad ending. Sadly the real world cannot always be like our dreams...Loved this story though! Sad our rl relationships can't work out the same way sometimes. Heart goes out to all those who have their own "Bad Endings" . You are not alone
This is really well written.
i do enjoy being trapped in a blizzard in summer
Man I'm really bummed by both endings tbh. I wanted them to stay together forever how dare they be realistic
manbearelk??? ok, first time for new creatures I guess
Manbearpig concept in south park exists, nothing surprises me, and honestly sounds like manbearpig might literally be the inspiration for this creature if anything
1:10 Ah, so that indeed ended up as foreshadowing.
32:48 the body suit gaining eyes caught me off guard
Your voiceovers give such life to these games, Manly! You did such an extraordinary job on this one, I felt all the emotions!
Man if only conversations in the good ending could go so easily like that, I really love the good ending even though when Winne left Auggie still had other friends and had a message on his cast from Winne, it was so sweet they finally became real friends after all this time.
Thanks!
Never noticed this feature before. Patreon might be better or just the twitch subs in terms of what percentage they take?
Anyway thanks Manly :) Always appreciate the videos :)
@@PamelasEngel That's what that is
This connected with me very personally. Happy to see that RPGMaker games are evolving so quickly!
The aesthetic and atmosphere of this game are phenomenal. The way the characters are drawn is really nice.
Man seeing all these rpg games makes me remember this one ds rpg game, a witch’s tale. It’s a game from my childhood that I never got to complete. I really liked it though. I wish there were playthroughs on youtube
*Feel The coldness Of the Void Manly Kun.*
He gives me the cold shoulder everytime
I remember you.

Oh yeah i saw you comment a bunch of times on manlys vids
This man-
"Bad ending go!" Oh, Manly. xD You're just too good. And the voice-acting was so on point.
And yeah! This was pretty good.
This was probably the first time my eyes went to tears in one of your gameplay/reviews 😢
Awesome 👍
I liked the end part where they literally rekindled their friendship ^7^
