@@blindedjourneyman According to the Twilight Zone, if the afterlife doesn't allow dogs, it's obviously the bad place. But also at the same time, the place that does allow dogs also lets you hunt racoons...
Petting a cat to maintain stability is an incredible mechanic to have. Imagine a horror game where one of the mechanics is your sanity levels is determined by how much you take care of your pets
That's just gamified depression "It's 3pm, you haven't even taken care of your pets today" -50 sanity; -100 self-worth "You managed to get out of bed and took your dog for a walk" +15 endurance; +40 sanity
You don't want to go there. Believe me writers can do some pretty horrifying stuff if you give them pets. and no I mean worse things than simply monster gets your pet.
More games need to have a "I just work here..." ending. I've always found the idea of someone who is not paid enough to deal with horror stuff on the job hilarious. Like working a typical job, the scary stuff happens, and the character just goes "Look, buddy, I've got another shift after this, I've got bigger things to worry about, go spook someone with a higher wage..."
That's something I always love and want, where the player character is just like "Yeah yeah, look, how about you spook somebody who deserves it pal? I'm just trying to get my damn paycheck." And/or is just sighing and going "They don't pay me enough to deal with this crap."
That was one cool thing about Far Cry 4 You could just do nothing and complete the game, like you know you aren't capable or wanting to liberate an entire region and exterminate a sizable army, burn down half of said region and become death himself Just eat the Crab Rangoon and get the hell out of there I say, I'm not paid enough to be Rambo I'm just a Rando
Like that story "Does anyone know a good plumber?" RUclips channel that guy with a voice does a pretty good narration of it and its pretty funny how the guy doesn't care at all about the supernatural things
Even better that it makes trilling sounds like a Maine Coon! My brother has one, I call him my "nephew." Few things are as nice as him coming into a room and making that little sound to let you know he's there and checking for vermin infestations. "All clear, uncle!"
"there a cat pet limit" 1:18 sounds about right honestly, as a cat owner I agree all cats have a cat pet limit, happens due to overstimulation or discomfort from the over petting some have a higher limit than others tho there are the occasional orange cat which just doesn't give two fluff about being petted too much
Orange cats aren't intellectually inferior, BTW. I have an orange cat who is easily overstimulated. It's inappropriate to think certain coat colors are inferior or superior.
@@blindedjourneyman Weird that they had to specify orange cat, no? Could have just said "there are the occasional cat which just doesn't give two fluff about being petted too much" What does color have to do with it?
When he stopped in the middle of knower when the stop sign came up an opened the doors not realising its a sign to stop at the next stop made me chuckle
I don't know about a lever, but want to say that here where i live is the same thing, we just pull a rope by the ceiling or press a button on the handbar and the signal pass to the front
@@Le_Confuzzlementit’s not overstimulation, cats don’t enjoy being petted and only tolerate it before they lash out. Cats don’t really enjoy being with humans in general, they just want the free food
@@wonderstruck. Tell that second part to all the cats that actually love their owners and go near them when they are sad or sick. Some cats have full bowls and clean cat toilets but they will still hop on your lap instead of going pee poo or instead of going to eat the food.
The gameplay should have just been a completely mundane bus driver simulator after establishing the horror premise, then let people reach their own conclusion.
Lol thats the first thing that i thought of also. Thats why i came to look at it, i was like, ohkaayy, like work shift of a hellbus driver...sure that should be interesting. I should've known it was like a haunted/cursed bus.
The way you can hear the cat purring through the right speaker is SO NICE wtf more games should have pet kitties (that are as safe and snug as this kitty, too, he's not even worried by 1\5 ending) Also I adored that every time - without fail - when the cat went "mrrp" Manly would turn to pet the cat. 10\10 cat ownership there
@@normalhuman9878 especially bc killing the pet is such a predictable thing to do at this point that people are always expecting it. i look up “does the companion die [game]” for every new game with a pet or companion i play lmao
A fuzzy and cute therapy cat should be by our side in any horror game from here on, Fun little game too! I like the out of the ordinary scenarios for horror.
So funny to see this. I just left my job as a bus driver in long beach. It was Pretty much a horror game every day haha! And you would be shocked at how many people don’t understand you have to pull the cord to stop…smh. The one thing this game is missing is a big screen in your face telling you how many minutes late you are. And, seeing how long manly was taking to get people's fare was really stressing me out.
Possible he hasn't, I knew a disgustingly rich guy in college who was completely out of touch. Never touched public transport and thought uber was the common mode of transport.
I really liked the idea of the sanity mechanic/the cat being there to manage it. Some expansion upon it would be cool, like maybe low sanity effects/events.
So Manly the bus is a vehicle you use to get from point A to point B. Sometimes you need to get off and the driver doesn't know/stop everywhere so there are buttons that lighten the sign "bus stop request" so that the driver knows where you are getting off
you can tell Manly never take a bus before and also not used to drive on the right side of the car. Bus stop light means passenger is requesting a stop so they can leave the bus
“Do it for Sam” poster next to the cat is a reference to the Simpsons. Homer has a plaque in his office that says “don’t forget, you’re here forever.” And he covered up letter’s with pictures of Maggie to spell out “do it for her.”
i’ve never really watched the simpsons, is that part of a gag or is it just a genuinely wholesome moment? when reading this i just imagined homer choking his son out😭
@@gargles5270actually nice moment As much of an ass as homer can be, he is still a family man at the end and will give it his all for them for them Unless the joke demand that he is an ass to his family, in that case it is what it is
This damn vendigo-thing casually chilling, taking a bus ride just gets me laughing Imagine if like, he’s just coming home from his human-scaring shift, bro must be tired
Deer Guy is just looking out for the little old man that the other bus drivers wouldn't pick up because his stop has a spooky number, that's all! Love a horror game where the strat is to just ignore the ghosts and highway demons.
8:18 this guy is me with the two busses that come here at my home. I always use the same one because the second bus is always full of people, then i just be like this dude and wait 30 more minutes to get the first bus.
I'm just gonna interpret that deer ending as that deer being nice and helping you out of the wreckage and getting you to the nearest emergency room (: There's no need to judge them based on appearances
Yeah, that would be way cuter! I think it'd fit with the game's vibe a bit better, too. Clearly, their intention is to scoop you up and carry you to safety. I think I can even hear them say "are you okay?" Might be the head injury and blood loss though. Anyway, same brain cell ~~
Judging by how he didn't know the "bus stopping" sign works or bus can skip stops when there's no one to ride/get off (unless the bus is way too early for scheduled departure), I can safely guess that Manly never used a single public bus in his life...
I think its safe to say Manly has never ridden a bus before. That "BUS STOPPING" sign is triggered by the passengers themselves when their stop is coming up!
I really liked this one. Despite having the "freedom" of being in a vehicle you're very much trapped. And petting a cat for sanity but not being able to spam them cuz it's a cat is pure genius. It also re-opened my mind a bit. The town I grew up in had no public transit but all the different cities I've lived in did. So ringing the bell to request the next stop is second nature to me and remembering back, I never needed to be told how the system worked. It just made sense. Press the button or pull the cord in enough time for the driver to stop. But yeah I guess not all places in the world likely work that way. So if I take the bus in a country outside the ones I've been to, I'll be sure and be careful about how their system works.
I fall asleep to your videos, it's been really helpful as I've turned 18 and a new load of problems have unfolded, but thankfully I can rest easy hearing your voice before bed. Thanks for making these videos, and goodnight
An interesting little bus driving game. With the somewhat normalitly of the driver and (possibly) the bus, I'd say this one involves driving around avatars of multiple fears- giving us a peek at multiple of them, instead of just one. The prevalence of the deer avatar though... that may be an avatar of the Hunt. There's an argument to be made that the bus itself is an object of the Spiral. Nice of it to provide a cat, though! Multiple times throughout the video, i confused its trills for my pet kitten's noises in my home. A highlight.
To everyone talking about the “Bus Stopping” thing, experiences with buses vary wildly in the States. I have public transport in my small city, but most people, even low income folks, need cars for day to day life. In big cities, there might be a robust, widely used public transport system, but it’s gotta be a BIG city. My first real experience with public transport actually came a couple weeks ago in Toronto. I knew about requesting a stop but didn’t quite know how it worked until then. And it’s kind of confusing the way it’s worded here. “Bus Stopping”? In Toronto, it said “Stop Requested”. Which makes way more sense
I think stop requested does make more sense for public transport, here in Germany the school busses generally stop at every station, and the public ones only show "bus is stopping" when you press a button
That was a cool game. I enjoyed watching Manly play. I did end up laughing out loud when Manly said "Goat demon, you've come to help me", like so positive ❤
I find great comfort in watching your videos as of late. I struggle with depressive episodes frequently and watching you helps me get dark thoughts of my mind for a while, thank you!
Being a bus driven in Auckland NZ is about as perilous as this. 10 years ago, they would actually have cash tils on the bus, and the driver would manually give you change. I still can't get over how nuts that is on so many levels. I hope it's changed.
Aaaaaaagh the bus seat colour. It's reminds me of the old ass buses, I hated them so much. Stuffy as hell. You could slap them and see the last 30 years worth of dust come off them. That shit was as toxic as asbestos.
Watching somebody who doesn't know how public transport works play this is painful. It actually brought back memories of being a kid and not knowing what to do when the bus breaks down or when calling for the wrong stop or when the driver ignores your call etc. 😭
I don't think Manly has ever used public transportation before. Those who have know that the ding for the bus stop is the request to stop at the next bus stop.
4:30 my man has never driven with a bus? 9:20 okay, so when someone wants to leave the bus theres this big red button you can press to signal the driver you wanna leave. So instead of holding at every single station even if empty, the passenger can tell you which station they want to leave at.
This guy has never taken a bus before. The passenger pulls the cord or pushes a button to light up the sign to let the driver know they are getting off at the next stop. Otherwise if there is no one waiting at the stop the bus will generally not stop at every bus stop.
You know what this is missing? The best thing that can happen on public transit. The Saxophone Duel. - RPjL909DiVI - Seriously how wild would it be to hear something like this from the backend of the bus?
I love how Manly has NO IDEA how buses work. Brother, you have to stop nowhere BUT the bus stops. You do NOT have to stop at a bus stop if noone is waiting on it and noone has hit the "stop" button. Pasengers may hit the "stop" button to signal to the driver that they wanna get off at the next stop. This button is necessary as the driver may NOT stop at their desired stop, since as stated previously, the driver only stops on their own if people are waiting AT the stop.
Thank you for what you do sir! You have the perfect voice for this job and you play all of the games that i wanna play so i can make a better informed decision on whether it's worth purchasing or not. Thanks again manly! You rock dude! 🤘🤘
The most surprising thing about this video is finding out that Manly has never taken a public bus before. But I guess that is car-centric North America for you. As for the game, it is pretty nice. Lots of good scares around, some of them well hidden too, like the monster man at the gas station. You wouldn't find it unless you slowed down and looked.
All public transit workers deserve emotional support cats. The things I've seen in broad daylight on buses make me shudder to think what may happen at night! One man was convinced that he was the reincarnation of Jesus and to prove it, he pulled out a knife and cut his arm to give "healing blood" to cure a woman in a wheelchair. This was at 2pm on a busy route. All I can do is hope that both of them found happiness after that, and thank the poor bus driver for acting quickly to keep the man's blood inside his body.
I really like that this game is more atmospheric horror and not loud noise jumpscare. Also, the details of ending by crashing and having a cat. Thanks, Manly.
I can tell you've never got on a bus by the fact you have no idea how the passenger bell and "bus stopping" sign work -the passengers press the bell when their stop is coming up, and that tells the driver that they need to stop at the next bus stop!
I'm pretty sure the deer creature is a wendigo, and also Sam is the friend the main character is covering for, he says in the beginning, he's helping out his friend who normally drives this bus
Gotta love how the devs made the idle engine sound go up in pitch and a little faster when the bus is moving instead of making it actually sound like a running bus

The cat was on the bus before you got on, meaning the "creatures" spared and never attacked the cat.

You don't want to go there. Believe me writers can do some pretty horrifying stuff if you give them pets. and no I mean worse things than simply monster gets your pet.
Not really pets, but the children in MOTHER kinda work like that.
Note to self: never take the bus if manly is driving, he spend more time looking everywhere but at the road.
I thought the point of the game was to hit the guardrail every few moments.
and if you press the stop button too early he'll stop in the middle of the road
He does have a cat on the bus though, though choice xD

My first real experience with public transport actually came a couple weeks ago in Toronto. I knew about requesting a stop but didn’t quite know how it worked until then. And it’s kind of confusing the way it’s worded here. “Bus Stopping”? In Toronto, it said “Stop Requested”. Which makes way more sense
I think stop requested does make more sense for public transport, here in Germany the school busses generally stop at every station, and the public ones only show "bus is stopping" when you press a button
@@R4ZURRR
Sometimes bus drivers don't stop at stops where nobody stands.
I advise to always use the Stop Button, before you reach your stop.
Yes, there's hardly any public transportation here in Florida, and Manly lives here in Florida.
Dude, you’re pumping out so much content! Be sure to take time for yourself and relax a little-don’t burn yourself out ❤
11:41 Nice game. Imagine yourself driving an empty bus and suddenly there's a sign indicanting someone wants to get out, I would shit my pants
15:17 - This is why you don't spin your heads like that! You'll distract your driver, and they'll hit a rail or something!
That was a cool game. I enjoyed watching Manly play.
I did end up laughing out loud when Manly said "Goat demon, you've come to help me", like so positive ❤
Goat Demon, you were by my side all along
@@BullMcCloud My true mentor, my guiding moonlight
I find great comfort in watching your videos as of late. I struggle with depressive episodes frequently and watching you helps me get dark thoughts of my mind for a while, thank you!
This is surely the UK, cars on the left side and people straight up from the underworld
I think it’s meant to be New Zealand actually :)
True, the UK is a lot worse than New Zealand (coming from a Brit)
Thanks for this manly been feeling down today need to keep myself distracted fully appreciated
"You can't go full cat. You gotta go partial cat." Yeah man. You think that.
15:30 they’re really enjoying that music
2:19 this is the funniest ending by far!
Being a bus driven in Auckland NZ is about as perilous as this. 10 years ago, they would actually have cash tils on the bus, and the driver would manually give you change. I still can't get over how nuts that is on so many levels. I hope it's changed.
I LOVE these short one off games/videos. I am here exclusively for this content.
"Hey, look, a car! I'm a *BUS."*
😂🤣
paper lily video when - ive been so excited to see you play it since your project kat video was such a banger
IVE BEEN SAYINGGG THIS ☹️
I played this game bro its so good
Aaaaaaagh the bus seat colour. It's reminds me of the old ass buses, I hated them so much. Stuffy as hell. You could slap them and see the last 30 years worth of dust come off them. That shit was as toxic as asbestos.
Now what if you just kidnap everyone and never let them off the bus
Your videos are the cure to my insomnia. Thank you!!
That ding and the BUS STOPPING illuminating is because a passenger has pressed the stop button. It means someone wants to get off at the next stop.
Watching somebody who doesn't know how public transport works play this is painful. It actually brought back memories of being a kid and not knowing what to do when the bus breaks down or when calling for the wrong stop or when the driver ignores your call etc. 😭
I don't think Manly has ever used public transportation before. Those who have know that the ding for the bus stop is the request to stop at the next bus stop.
Yeah, it’s not a very effective system for travel if you live outside a huge city. Most US suburban folk drive our own cars.
Good timing on posting just woke up from a nightmare and needed some manlybadasshero to cheer me up
Tbh, if I could have a bus cat on a regular bus, I'd consider having that job lol.
me and the boys spinning heads after a long day riding the bus.
Ah, a fresh post from our Manly.
This just made my Thursday~☆
i love that the cat is still purring after the bus crashed
4:30 my man has never driven with a bus?
9:20 okay, so when someone wants to leave the bus theres this big red button you can press to signal the driver you wanna leave. So instead of holding at every single station even if empty, the passenger can tell you which station they want to leave at.
Yeh but you gotta stop at each station in case there's a passenger hiding in the bushes that might be a deer
This guy has never taken a bus before. The passenger pulls the cord or pushes a button to light up the sign to let the driver know they are getting off at the next stop. Otherwise if there is no one waiting at the stop the bus will generally not stop at every bus stop.
Ugh...I've been playing too much lethal company for my brain to see a stop sigh and think
Weapon to fight the endless horde @_@
We love The Company!
You said if they pay, they get a ride, but the wendigo demon brought his entire family onto the bus for free
You know what this is missing? The best thing that can happen on public transit. The Saxophone Duel. - RPjL909DiVI - Seriously how wild would it be to hear something like this from the backend of the bus?
I love how Manly has NO IDEA how buses work.
Brother, you have to stop nowhere BUT the bus stops.
You do NOT have to stop at a bus stop if noone is waiting on it and noone has hit the "stop" button.
Pasengers may hit the "stop" button to signal to the driver that they wanna get off at the next stop. This button is necessary as the driver may NOT stop at their desired stop, since as stated previously, the driver only stops on their own if people are waiting AT the stop.
Obligatory "this is just the average night time bus fairer experience"
The cat really makes the game
and if you fuck with it too much it gets mad and purrs if left to chill lmao
also, DAMN that ending screen, you got one hell of a jawline
I love how Manly just starts driving the bus and immediately drives straight towards a car and crashes😭😭
Great start to watching you again I miss content so I’m happy to start watching the last eat videos. Great work man!🦌
Thank you for what you do sir! You have the perfect voice for this job and you play all of the games that i wanna play so i can make a better informed decision on whether it's worth purchasing or not. Thanks again manly! You rock dude! 🤘🤘
The spinning head dudes seemed to be having fun.
The most surprising thing about this video is finding out that Manly has never taken a public bus before. But I guess that is car-centric North America for you.
As for the game, it is pretty nice. Lots of good scares around, some of them well hidden too, like the monster man at the gas station. You wouldn't find it unless you slowed down and looked.
All public transit workers deserve emotional support cats. The things I've seen in broad daylight on buses make me shudder to think what may happen at night!
One man was convinced that he was the reincarnation of Jesus and to prove it, he pulled out a knife and cut his arm to give "healing blood" to cure a woman in a wheelchair. This was at 2pm on a busy route. All I can do is hope that both of them found happiness after that, and thank the poor bus driver for acting quickly to keep the man's blood inside his body.
so was the woman healed?
@@operator-chan1887 No, just horribly disturbed and!
I really like that this game is more atmospheric horror and not loud noise jumpscare. Also, the details of ending by crashing and having a cat. Thanks, Manly.
Yay, another Manly vid!
I love how the cat was the only one on the bus who truly didn't give a single F about any of this, even when the bus went off a cliff.
clicked immediatly
I can tell you've never got on a bus by the fact you have no idea how the passenger bell and "bus stopping" sign work -the passengers press the bell when their stop is coming up, and that tells the driver that they need to stop at the next bus stop!
I'm pretty sure the deer creature is a wendigo, and also Sam is the friend the main character is covering for, he says in the beginning, he's helping out his friend who normally drives this bus
Gotta love how the devs made the idle engine sound go up in pitch and a little faster when the bus is moving instead of making it actually sound like a running bus
Considering you have to play FNAF while driving I totally don’t blame you for hitting rail a few times.
