That mod is just everything good about fnf mods, with awesome cutscenes, interesting mechanics and crazy good songs all showing some of the best indie game characters of this era
one of these days theres gonna be a mod that is so well made that it puts this to shame (and this is already argueably the mest mod of all time, it's my favorite one rn)
this has to be one of the best made mods for friday night funkin. the music is great and so are the mechanics. but i completely understand you didnt even played the nightmare songs for a long time. wow they are difficult. Defenitely one of the best mods at the moment!
When I first experienced Nightmare Bendy I questioned myself "am I fighting a dark souls boss?", defeated this without ghost tapping & defenitly my favorite out of the 3 nightmare levels...not for my eyes though.
I hope that the fact that they used the Radiance’s screech at the end of the credits and nosk music during the Bendy week means that the “Indie Cross will return” was referring to a Hollow Knight week
Are you going to play the new Undertoad: Mission Luigi fangame? It’s “unofficial,” but it was overseen by the official comic team, so it’s accurate to canon, unlike the old Mario Sans Revolution game. There’s a no-hit mode, too.
During Nightmare Run, Boyfriend flips Bendy while running, and Bendy finds how it’s an insult and in Despair his red arrow like BF flips you off. It’s a funny attention to detail.
At the end of the credtis was the radiance scream, so I guess Hollowknight will be the next Indie game week Edit: Also between song 2 and 3 of week 3 the Nosk theme is used
The goose being a confirmed character begs the question; What would Goose's Nightmare form be like, and how much more deadly would it be than the normal goose?
After 2 years of bad thingys i remembered your channel and i want to check it cuz why not and i learned this *You are Growing so FAST* When I came to the first channel, you only had 100K subscribers and I followed you, I didn't leave you, we needed to heal my foot so I couldn't watch you but now you're almost 1M proud of you :D (my english is a bit bad so the words may be wrong)
for anyone who doesnt know, freaky machine is actually to the tune of build our machine by dagames which makes sense as he helped make freaky machine as seen when you load up the level at least the beginning
Merg's dedication to make he's videos, never stops to amaze me. Seriously tho, many would already "give up" and just make a single video for the mod. But not Merg. He still comeback to the mod to see what he missed in the last episode, and with that, give us more content to watch from him. As always, thanks Merg for being you! :)
it does seem like more weeks will be added. calling it now: Hollow Knight will be a week, since they used the Nosk music in one of the cutscenes. edit: and they used the scream from Hollow Knight at the end to make it really obvious. 😭 there's me thinking I was reading between the lines!
Incase you want to play Bendy and the Ink Machine sometime in the future,i won't spoil anything,but... The song "Ritual" is where we fight against Sammy,one of Bendy's "followers". And the song "Freaky Machine" is a reference to popular songs called "Build our Machine" and "Instruments of Cyanide",made by DA Games,undoubtedly two of the most popular fanmade Bendy And The Ink Machine songs ever made. (The Red Eye Bendy is from "Gospel of Dismay",another Bendy song by DA Games.)
Great job dude You didn’t have to do nightmare run, or any of the other songs, but you did, and that’s hella impressive! You did amazing! (The mechanics on nightmare run are quite crushing, so I totally understand turning them off!)
12:17 I think that scream is familiar. It’s obviously Hollow Knight (Infected vessel) scream, so this could predict a possible update with Hollow Knight?
I don't blame you for turning off the mechanics. One thing that bothers me about indie cross is how insane the mechanics are. And it doesn't really matter if mod makers want to make things hard but at some point the game stops being an actual rhythm game, and its just a matter of survival (i.e spam galore, or just being downright impossible to focus on the actual arrow tracks/anti-FC).
@@asrieldreemurr8059 it seems that you never experienced the satisfaction of beating something that took you 4 hours to beat, the game is fair, is just too difficult
Use DFJK as the notes' keys and use X and N as attack and dodge Or do something like that, to make it more confortable for you so you don't miss notes, the attack or the dodge
I find this more complicated lol I used DFKL and the default dodge and attack keys and I get to fc last reel :D Now i'm trying bad time. (Sorry if my english is bad)
If you are looking for fnf mods Merg I recommend the Mario's Madness mod. It is almost on par with quality of the Sonic.exe mod. Also isn't that the Hollow Knight scream at 12:19
Since we know that Indie Cross V2 will Happen i Just want to add something: The Beginning Cutscene already teased all of the Future "Worlds", so Here are the ones that were Shown Shovel Knight Hollow Knight Untiteled Goose Game FnaF And also, the current Characters have the Colors Red, Blue and Yellow From those 3 Worlds (i'm gonnna exclude Goose since He already has a Song) all can fit those Colors Shovel Knight = Blue FnaF= Red (we saw Foxy for a Split Second) Hollow Knight = Yellow
When Merg struggling in something, he has a chance on making a no hit/no miss runs in those games. (Because Merg is the type of someone whould do it. And another reason is because he made no hits and no miss runs in games like Undertale, Fnf etc.)
fun facts - yeah, there's still a LOT to go through Indie Cross' development - the shadow at the Nightmare game over screen is MORØ himself (or at least, rather his sona) - you were right about Despair being literally 5:20 minutes long - if you try to do something in the debug menu after pressing 7 in a Nightmare song, its respective character will try to jumpscare you and then crash your game
Fact: Freaky Machine was based of a Bendy made by DAgames. The first part is based off the song called Build our Machine. And the one with the red eye was inspired by Gospel Of Dismay.
It's been a while I haven't commented on a video, feels good! The worst is that I have eye fatigue and can't stay in front of the video too long 😭 Probably gonna watch it by parts so my eyes don't die 😂 I know without watching the whole video that it's going to be amazing! *happy cherry noises* Also just wanted to say there's a game who just launched today, it's a mix between Celeste and Super Meat Boy! The title is "RUN: The World In-between". It's on Steam and on Switch, and when I saw it, I immediately thought about Merg, so yeah, I'm writing this here if anyone's interested. 😊😊
Alright heck yeah, time to Bend-y to the mod's will and finish out the story, then see what else it has to offer! 1:38 _The knee._ 2:27 Ooo neon dark mode. 3:43 Ascending the staircase! Boyfriend's climbing his way out of there! 3:54 Omg you can even see, despite the fact you barely see Bendy, they made different note positions for him still! 4:28 Yoo the ink machine in the background! And is the framing a Hotland CORE reference? 5:56 Ok going for it without mechanics. 7:52 Back to the beginning section, on a higher floor? 8:28 And neon mode again! 9:08 Heck yeah BF finally gets away! 9:17 :0 Projector head guy! 9:20 Oh hi again Sammy. 9:30 Yoo 3D turn effect. 9:49 Ohp and... back through.

For now you must, BUILD UP OUT MACHINE YOU DIE TONIGHT!" 17:55 Ooo he's going cyanide mode- Yoo and the curtains open up AND IT SWITCHED TO INSTRUMENTS OF CYANIDE!!!

Wait Nightmare songs? Uh oh Merg this might be hard- 20:04 They lookin neon yooooo. Oooh and it's like the bonus songs in the middle are the portal teleporting you to Nightmare Mode! 20:21 Oh ho ho devilish difficulty, time to take the Devil's Gambit! 20:38 Ooo Nightmare loading screen. 20:44 hah, nice Lemon Demon callback, Devil's dead, time to take on Cuphead and he's fuming with hellfire! 20:50 He snappin already, can't miss a single parry! 20:55 Well that's a creepy game over screen, nothing like the charm of the main week just terrifying voice- almost like Everywhere at the End of Time. 21:14 Daaamn it's going hard already! 24:10 Yeah kinda close up Devil face? 24:20 Alright alright hearing Battle Against a True Hero there, and heck yeah Genocidal difficulty! 24:40 Sans has gone full telekinesis mode, he's even teleporting around in his poses! 24:56 Uh oh bone dodging is color coded now too! 25:00 Oh yeah the mystery man disappear sound effect. And But Nobody Came... 26:40 I mean I'd think so, the lack of icons is only to hide the designs. 27:02 Fall into Despair with demonic difficulty! 27:18 Oh hi Nightmare Bendy. 27:26 Hooooly crap the metal, the chorus, Bendy's grungy voice, this song goes as insane as possible! 28:42 Hey he's gotta pull out all the stops for this- also this is the farthest Merg's made it on one of these songs, and on the first try! 29:00 Lights on, the machine and revealed and the mechanics start flooding in like ink! 29:06 Here come the butcher gang... yeah this is where it ends. 29:48 Heh pal buddy chum home slice bread slice dawg. 30:50 Mmm Gose. 30:56 It is a lovely day to funk around... and you're facing a horrible little goose! Honk honk away! 31:09 Aw yeah, gose with the drip. 32:14 Pft you might be thinking of the Game Theory intro lol. 33:47 Ofc the game crashes why wouldn't it Merg? Gose has unlimited power. 34:32 Bro you got captured. 34:37 Yw Sans it was an honor. He repaying us with a secret song? 35:04 Oh that's a smart way to prevent it from being datamined. 35:34 SANESSSS!!! 35:39 Bro it really is just Sr. Pelo noises. Table slaps included. 36:42 Bro he's just dying. 36:44 Mmmogolovonio 36:52 Amogus. 36:58 Omg I didn't even see the changed stat labels. xD 37:28 All good mods gotta have it now. 37:35 Improbable Outset? 38:18 Pffffft RIP. 38:25 Sr. Pelo why you so rude. 38:42 Bro hoowwwww. 39:34 Eyyy reading em all out! I read them all myself in the last episode so good on you. Great mod! Sad you couldn't beat all the songs but that just means I gotta do em myself. >:D 40:28 Heh.
a fun part about the whole blocked screen with the swinging butcher head is that bendys part is a mirror to yours so when your side is blocked its the same chart as bendys on your side
man, now i really want merg to play bendy and the ink machine. After he plays fnaf sb maybe that's the next horror game to try out? btw, the song freaky machine is a remix of the song "build our machine", a fan made song for the game
A tip for the "dark" sections, as they are called in the files, focus on the colors of the notes rather than the notes themselves. Its what helped me get through the song.
I noticed the confusion with the week 3 characters, they are from a game called "Bendy and the Ink Machine". It is an amazing game and I ended up returning to beat it after playing this wonderful mod. You should check out the game if you haven't!
it helps to set your background transparency to 0 because the fully black notes won't distract you and the bendy pop ups won't block your vision of the notes
Hey Merg! Loved the video. I would really love to see you play Will you snail. It's an indie platformer where an AI tries to predict your movements and spawns traps in real time! I would say its a perfect pick for this channel but you should be the judge of that.
I might be going crazy, but after Merg finishes the Bendy week and sees the credits, after the credits and, I can kinda hear the Radiance scream from Hollow Knight.
I LOVE this mod! I'm happy to see you do the little secrets and extras I can't play the mod because Idk how to get mods (I don't have much space on my computer xD) Anyways the "freaky machine" song kinda sounds like "Hey I am alive" song!
Ngl that final cutscene before BF teleported away from Bendy has to be one of the best. Maybe because I like darkness, but that was awesome. Congrats on beating it, tho! May the cherry gamer live on.

Ok honestly most people knew it was coming, just the facts
I hope that the fact that they used the Radiance’s screech at the end of the credits and nosk music during the Bendy week means that the “Indie Cross will return” was referring to a Hollow Knight week
I know they used nose music in the bendy week, but where was white palace?
@@funnilywordedfunnyman824 it was in one of the cutscenes
Yes! Merg is back with another amazing video! I love your videos! :D
Are you going to play the new Undertoad: Mission Luigi fangame? It’s “unofficial,” but it was overseen by the official comic team, so it’s accurate to canon, unlike the old Mario Sans Revolution game. There’s a no-hit mode, too.
I love how a mario undertale fan game has a canon that has to be "respected"
Omg yes i really hope he play it its one of my fav fangames
@@pirilon78 lmao
@@pirilon78 yeah because people’s creations deserve respect. that’s not really up for debate here
@@jacketofdiamonds and you think making a non canon accurate fangame is disrespectful?
During Nightmare Run, Boyfriend flips Bendy while running, and Bendy finds how it’s an insult and in Despair his red arrow like BF flips you off. It’s a funny attention to detail.
At the end of the credtis was the radiance scream, so I guess Hollowknight will be the next Indie game week
Edit: Also between song 2 and 3 of week 3 the Nosk theme is used
Omg I was literally searching for the rest of this game and your notification popped up, awesome!
The goose being a confirmed character begs the question; What would Goose's Nightmare form be like, and how much more deadly would it be than the normal goose?
DO NOT TEMPT THE GOOSE. IT WILL KILL YOU.
The song would probably be untitled.
(Like literally with no title)
goose would steal your mic
It would leak your real IP addres instead of fake one when you lose
@@s0ullessness AAAAAAA
I absolutely love how they got Build our Machine in this mod!
After 2 years of bad thingys i remembered your channel and i want to check it cuz why not and i learned this *You are Growing so FAST* When I came to the first channel, you only had 100K subscribers and I followed you, I didn't leave you, we needed to heal my foot so I couldn't watch you but now you're almost 1M proud of you :D (my english is a bit bad so the words may be wrong)
for anyone who doesnt know, freaky machine is actually to the tune of build our machine by dagames which makes sense as he helped make freaky machine as seen when you load up the level
at least the beginning
And that chapter 3 song (Edit: it's Instruments of cyanide) is the second half
I FORGOT THE NAME
@@bethpaano9845 so that chapter three song is to the tune of a different song as well?
omg, thank you, I was desperate for some quality content right now, bless this man
4:20 (nice) Merg is about to say “Holy shit” and immediately corrects himself to “holy crap” this man is too good for social media.
He wasn’t about to say shit. He just said crap.
bro family friendly youtubers arent that good for social media
28:48
bro any time he hits a note bad it says "shit" lmao
very family friendly
@@vizzysfizzys fr tho☠☠
Absolutely love the determination Merg! Keep it up!! :D
you know its a good day when merg uploads
Merg's dedication to make he's videos, never stops to amaze me. Seriously tho, many would already "give up" and just make a single video for the mod. But not Merg.
He still comeback to the mod to see what he missed in the last episode, and with that, give us more content to watch from him. As always, thanks Merg for being you! :)
Guess you could say he has determination
But he gave up with the nightmare songs .-.
@@secrom36 I mean the fact that he did is incredibly fair considering how difficult the songs are
the way merg makes his videos high quality just amazes me so much, im looking forward to more videos in the future like this, keep it up!
it does seem like more weeks will be added. calling it now: Hollow Knight will be a week, since they used the Nosk music in one of the cutscenes.
edit: and they used the scream from Hollow Knight at the end to make it really obvious. 😭 there's me thinking I was reading between the lines!
Incase you want to play Bendy and the Ink Machine sometime in the future,i won't spoil anything,but...
The song "Ritual" is where we fight against Sammy,one of Bendy's "followers".
And the song "Freaky Machine" is a reference to popular songs called "Build our Machine" and "Instruments of Cyanide",made by DA Games,undoubtedly two of the most popular fanmade Bendy And The Ink Machine songs ever made.
(The Red Eye Bendy is from "Gospel of Dismay",another Bendy song by DA Games.)
Actually, the song Freaky Machine references Instruments of Cyanide, not Gospel of Dismay
@@whatwat7122 oop my bad,thought it did bc of evil bendy
@@kanra_n3514 it's ok, the red eyed bendy really does make it seem like that part is a reference to Gospel of Dismay
I love the fact that Moro was on every nightmare song death screen.
I love the fact that, the most iconic song of Bendy from DAGames is in this mod.
Great job dude
You didn’t have to do nightmare run, or any of the other songs, but you did, and that’s hella impressive! You did amazing!
(The mechanics on nightmare run are quite crushing, so I totally understand turning them off!)
12:16 Merg is gonna have some intense flashbacks once he realizes whose scream this is
i was wondering if anyone else knew what that was! its gonna me so cool to see the sun moth in this style!
Greetings
*ABSOLUTE SALT*
Could anyone tell me what that was ?
The next indiecross update is going to be a RADIANT event. :)
12:17
I think that scream is familiar.
It’s obviously Hollow Knight (Infected vessel) scream, so this could predict a possible update with Hollow Knight?
Bendy's elbows are way stronger than any other part of his body.
16:50 "they have sent you a letter to come back home to play but to your dismay this isn't your day for the happy fun time has begun to fade"
Merg: This is Boyfriend bullying!
Bendy: *Are you challenging me?*
10:19
12:19 I may be late but I recognize that cry anywhere, that’s the sun boys.
I don't blame you for turning off the mechanics. One thing that bothers me about indie cross is how insane the mechanics are. And it doesn't really matter if mod makers want to make things hard but at some point the game stops being an actual rhythm game, and its just a matter of survival (i.e spam galore, or just being downright impossible to focus on the actual arrow tracks/anti-FC).
No, at that point you just have to asume that that type of game is not your type of game, like souls games, they are not for everyone
@@secrom36
It’s fucking FNF, not a hell simulator
I really liked all the mechanics except for the ones that appear in Bad Time, those ones can fucking die.
Seeth, cope, mald, cry, L
@@asrieldreemurr8059 it seems that you never experienced the satisfaction of beating something that took you 4 hours to beat, the game is fair, is just too difficult
Use DFJK as the notes' keys and use X and N as attack and dodge
Or do something like that, to make it more confortable for you so you don't miss notes, the attack or the dodge
I find this more complicated lol
I used DFKL and the default dodge and attack keys and I get to fc last reel :D
Now i'm trying bad time.
(Sorry if my english is bad)
^
@@Dissorial √
I use ZX 23 and default attack qnd dodge buttons
If you are looking for fnf mods Merg I recommend the Mario's Madness mod. It is almost on par with quality of the Sonic.exe mod.
Also isn't that the Hollow Knight scream at 12:19
It is, merges gonna have ptsd when he realizes
Boyfriend: Beep
Goose: Honk
Nice conversation, have a great rest of the day.
He did not recognized that the next week will be hollow knight
NOTE MY WORDS, I KNOW A RADIANCE GROWL WHEN I HEAR ONE 12:17
Merg: doesn't want to do songs with insta kills because it takes too many attempts
Also merg: no hit sans, no hit omega flowey, no hit jevil
The Hollow Knight's cry at the end of the credits gave me chills and now I am excited to how they are going to add that game to this amazing mod
The scream of the Radiance at the end of the credits got me so hyped up!
It was the radiance scream tho
@@funky_tree oh yeah my bad, I edited it up.
Since we know that Indie Cross V2 will Happen i Just want to add something:
The Beginning Cutscene already teased all of the Future "Worlds", so Here are the ones that were Shown
Shovel Knight
Hollow Knight
Untiteled Goose Game
FnaF
And also, the current Characters have the Colors Red, Blue and Yellow
From those 3 Worlds (i'm gonnna exclude Goose since He already has a Song) all can fit those Colors
Shovel Knight = Blue
FnaF= Red (we saw Foxy for a Split Second)
Hollow Knight = Yellow
When Merg struggling in something, he has a chance on making a no hit/no miss runs in those games. (Because Merg is the type of someone whould do it. And another reason is because he made no hits and no miss runs in games like Undertale, Fnf etc.)
fun facts
- yeah, there's still a LOT to go through Indie Cross' development
- the shadow at the Nightmare game over screen is MORØ himself (or at least, rather his sona)
- you were right about Despair being literally 5:20 minutes long
- if you try to do something in the debug menu after pressing 7 in a Nightmare song, its respective character will try to jumpscare you and then crash your game
"Try"?
37:52
saness: /having a stroke/
merg: thats the coolest part!
Fact: Freaky Machine was based of a Bendy made by DAgames. The first part is based off the song called Build our Machine. And the one with the red eye was inspired by Gospel Of Dismay.
It's been a while I haven't commented on a video, feels good!
The worst is that I have eye fatigue and can't stay in front of the video too long 😭 Probably gonna watch it by parts so my eyes don't die 😂
I know without watching the whole video that it's going to be amazing! *happy cherry noises*
Also just wanted to say there's a game who just launched today, it's a mix between Celeste and Super Meat Boy! The title is "RUN: The World In-between". It's on Steam and on Switch, and when I saw it, I immediately thought about Merg, so yeah, I'm writing this here if anyone's interested. 😊😊

Damn i lost the time stamp
Alright heck yeah, time to Bend-y to the mod's will and finish out the story, then see what else it has to offer!
1:38 _The knee._
2:27 Ooo neon dark mode.
3:43 Ascending the staircase! Boyfriend's climbing his way out of there!
3:54 Omg you can even see, despite the fact you barely see Bendy, they made different note positions for him still!
4:28 Yoo the ink machine in the background! And is the framing a Hotland CORE reference?
5:56 Ok going for it without mechanics.
7:52 Back to the beginning section, on a higher floor?
8:28 And neon mode again!
9:08 Heck yeah BF finally gets away!
9:17 :0 Projector head guy!
9:20 Oh hi again Sammy.
9:30 Yoo 3D turn effect.
9:49 Ohp and... back through. Does this ever end for BF?
9:53 Aaand the butcher gang is angry again. BF's last stand!
10:07 Uh oh he been grabbed.
10:13 Squishy face and mic slap lol.
10:17 Ow.
10:24 Bro that was a knockout punch.
10:37 Brooo BF's unlocked the determination scream!!!
10:53 Aaand he free. :D Also I just realized how much those portals look like the one that got Tricky in the Tricky mod.
11:08 And finally credits! But no funkin' answers on those portals...
11:14 Brooo gonna make me cry with this piano version of the menu theme.
11:37 I'm seein a big number there, 375? Secret code or milestone? Oh wait you're talking about Gose.
12:05 Yooo for more indie games?
12:15 Yooo Radiance scream!? Is Hollow Knight next? :0
13:05 Niice two Bendy songs.
13:18 Oh I was thinking- yeah ok it just unlocks after doing all the secret songs lol.
13:41 Ooo vs. Sammy! Oh no he tryna sacrifice BF.
14:07 Yeye the axe swinging pose is cool.
14:42 Oh but it didn't cover the notes.
15:41 Bro the dodge appeared on the left and it gave you like no warning. xD
16:03 Nice dodge, bro that was a cheap move at the end.
16:11 Oh yeah- he got that a bit ago game lol.
16:27 Waaaaaiiit a sec is that the percussion to Build Our Machine!? :0
16:40 It's vs. cartoon Bendy and heck yeah it is Build Our Machine omg that's such a nostalgia slap!!! :DDD
16:50 Woah Bendy's animations are so smooth- pretty fitting when you think about it lol.
17:12 Aw thanks Bendy.
17:22 "I am alive! Immortalized! You're the creator, you traitor! Hey! There's no vaccine, to cure our dirty needs! For now you must, BUILD UP OUT MACHINE YOU DIE TONIGHT!"
17:55 Ooo he's going cyanide mode- Yoo and the curtains open up AND IT SWITCHED TO INSTRUMENTS OF CYANIDE!!! Also just realized the stage setting and projector screen background is a reference to Gospel of Dismay WE GOT THE WHOLE TRILOGY HERE!!!!!!!!
18:14 Yeah you can't just do a cover of this song without including a chorus of voices lmao.
18:41 Heck yeah this song almost goes as hard as the original!
19:01 Pfft BF goes for the hoo haha scatting and Bendy calls it a low blow.
19:27 Oo the sexy bass dropping at the end.
19:52 Heck yeah Nightmare Songs unlocked! Wait Nightmare songs? Uh oh Merg this might be hard-
20:04 They lookin neon yooooo. Oooh and it's like the bonus songs in the middle are the portal teleporting you to Nightmare Mode!
20:21 Oh ho ho devilish difficulty, time to take the Devil's Gambit!
20:38 Ooo Nightmare loading screen.
20:44 hah, nice Lemon Demon callback, Devil's dead, time to take on Cuphead and he's fuming with hellfire!
20:50 He snappin already, can't miss a single parry!
20:55 Well that's a creepy game over screen, nothing like the charm of the main week just terrifying voice- almost like Everywhere at the End of Time.
21:14 Daaamn it's going hard already!
24:10 Yeah kinda close up Devil face?
24:20 Alright alright hearing Battle Against a True Hero there, and heck yeah Genocidal difficulty!
24:40 Sans has gone full telekinesis mode, he's even teleporting around in his poses!
24:56 Uh oh bone dodging is color coded now too!
25:00 Oh yeah the mystery man disappear sound effect. And But Nobody Came...
26:40 I mean I'd think so, the lack of icons is only to hide the designs.
27:02 Fall into Despair with demonic difficulty!
27:18 Oh hi Nightmare Bendy.
27:26 Hooooly crap the metal, the chorus, Bendy's grungy voice, this song goes as insane as possible!
28:42 Hey he's gotta pull out all the stops for this- also this is the farthest Merg's made it on one of these songs, and on the first try!
29:00 Lights on, the machine and revealed and the mechanics start flooding in like ink!
29:06 Here come the butcher gang... yeah this is where it ends.
29:48 Heh pal buddy chum home slice bread slice dawg.
30:50 Mmm Gose.
30:56 It is a lovely day to funk around... and you're facing a horrible little goose! Honk honk away!
31:09 Aw yeah, gose with the drip.
32:14 Pft you might be thinking of the Game Theory intro lol.
33:47 Ofc the game crashes why wouldn't it Merg? Gose has unlimited power.
34:32 Bro you got captured.
34:37 Yw Sans it was an honor. He repaying us with a secret song?
35:04 Oh that's a smart way to prevent it from being datamined.

38:25 Sr. Pelo why you so rude.
38:42 Bro hoowwwww.
39:34 Eyyy reading em all out! I read them all myself in the last episode so good on you. Great mod! Sad you couldn't beat all the songs but that just means I gotta do em myself. >:D
40:28 Heh.
I GET IT
THE BENDY PUN
What a good timing, i was just dying from boredom and you saved me :D
a fun part about the whole blocked screen with the swinging butcher head is that bendys part is a mirror to yours so when your side is blocked its the same chart as bendys on your side
The screech at the end of the credits is the hollow knights screech!
Myla rap when
Lel
man, now i really want merg to play bendy and the ink machine. After he plays fnaf sb maybe that's the next horror game to try out?
btw, the song freaky machine is a remix of the song "build our machine", a fan made song for the game
A tip for the "dark" sections, as they are called in the files, focus on the colors of the notes rather than the notes themselves. Its what helped me get through the song.
Hmm interesting I will try it maybe it helps me
Avoid the yellow notes, got it
@@MistSGM yes do that its ez win if you do that
@@MistSGM in layman's terms, yeah.
I LOVE HOW merg said: is this hell?
Merg sounds like a dad seeing there kid in the talent show when says “Wht a talented boy” 😆😆
Just wanted to come back to say I finally beat Despair and honestly Merg you dodged a bullet.
_It took me a week._
Real
35:37 this is art, thanks sans
I noticed the confusion with the week 3 characters, they are from a game called "Bendy and the Ink Machine". It is an amazing game and I ended up returning to beat it after playing this wonderful mod. You should check out the game if you haven't!
horror games are a hell no for me
@@doomclasher9287 I used to be scared of horror stuff (Sonic.exe moment) but now I dont really fear much lol
@@The_Mysterious_G4mer for me sonic.exe wasn't that bad (though I did get sad when I saw Tail's corpse)
"That's it hello my friend! Get out of my face." - Merg 2022
The best mod of FNF has been conquered by our best Cherry! Good job Merg!
glad you covered it all!
No one gonna talk about the fact that Boyfriend while running was just:
nope
* middle finger at bendy *
it helps to set your background transparency to 0 because the fully black notes won't distract you and the bendy pop ups won't block your vision of the notes
12:17... If that scream comes from who I think it's coming... Merg and all of us are going to have a Radiant Despair pretty soon...
Hey Merg! Loved the video.
I would really love to see you play Will you snail.
It's an indie platformer where an AI tries to predict your movements and spawns traps in real time!
I would say its a perfect pick for this channel but you should be the judge of that.
10:26 wtf thats so frickin' brutal
tho nobody has said fnf was for kids
16:50 ahhh, that smiling demon, reminds me of some old memories
This game is too good,even the mechanics im impressed
Merg comes back with the ink notes on. What a chad
I might be going crazy, but after Merg finishes the Bendy week and sees the credits, after the credits and, I can kinda hear the Radiance scream from Hollow Knight.
How is it kinda, that’s literally the scream, it’s pretty clear
Most FNF mod characters: try to defeat by just tap battling Bf
Cuphead, Sans and Bendy: we don't do that here
That scream at the end of the credits is 100000000% Radiance from hollow knight
4:30 Merg : I don't know We in hell"
Seeing the Ink Machine
Bendy:huh... you don't say-
I LOVE this mod! I'm happy to see you do the little secrets and extras
I can't play the mod because Idk how to get mods (I don't have much space on my computer xD)
Anyways the "freaky machine" song kinda sounds like "Hey I am alive" song!
I don't play fnf because when I try my pc just heats up and turns off automatically because of the lag
@@justarandomdude.8907 That might be another reason why I can't actually play fnf (also it takes too long to load on Newgrounds idk why).
Ngl that final cutscene before BF teleported away from Bendy has to be one of the best. Maybe because I like darkness, but that was awesome. Congrats on beating it, tho! May the cherry gamer live on.
i knew merg would come back to beat the songs he couldn't do last time
a true gamer
ive come back watching merg after like 2 years and still a rlly good youtuber
