Cement Mixer Simulator 2003 (What is it Hiding!?)

- It's common these days for seemingly innocuous games to conceal a dark secret. Here, that facade only extends to the title download page - and yet, I still feel it's holding something back. What is it hiding behind its numerous locked doors?

I used to use a cement mixer pretty much daily for my last job and I can confirm this is pretty much exactly what it was like
Thanks man I need a job like that
Same but I used to repair and sometimes assemble new ones. It’s not possible to describe how they work.
No wonder road construction always takes so long! Every times they have to make cement, the workers have to teleport to various otherworldly locations.

Minus all the strange occurrences right?...
_r..right?_
This is a game I recommended.
As far as I can remember this game is actually based on the creator's dreams.
If it's based on the creators dream he definitely has something going on
I have dreams like this, and It's definitely not normal, not because of some "satanic" stuff, no theory, its just what happens when you have a lot of bad thing sin your brain, schizophrenia, paranoia, multitudes of things along those lines, I would not be surprised if this is a mentally challenged person documenting their dreams
Did you progress any further than the two levels that are open from the start?
@@TropicalMelonMan honestly I can't remember. This game is a part of the egg-like genre. Search up egg-like indie games, you are in for a wild ride.
@@mrmanakin9684 I actually first discovered egglikes from watching Vinesauce. Good stuff!
@@TropicalMelonMan same
You were correct about why the cessation of sound is so unnerving on a primal level to humans. It's also why, when you're trying to sleep, a constant noise is much more comforting that an intermittent sound. A sound cutting in and out sets us on edge because our brains take it as a warning.
I always called dead silences after freaky sounds a "reverse jumpscare". Instead of being a release of fear, it just builds it up the longer the silence drags on. A lot of Analogue horror works with it.
Like when a forest goes dead silent because theres a predator or something nearby, it's terrifying.
The movie Arachnophobia made a point of it if I remember correctly, one of the guys said something to the effect of "A forest should never be silent".
The lack of noise, I think, calls back to our hunter-gatherer roots. When the wildlife around you goes completely silent, there's definitely something in the forest more dangerous than you.
@@DiggerDeeper01 yeah, I remember watching Gemini Home Entertainment and some of their videos use this
Imagine you’re enjoying a nice bath, your friends you’ve lived with for ten years are on the toilets chatting with you. You ask if the air feels charged, and then suddenly there’s a TH-camr in your bathtub and shouts “OH THIS ISN’T CEMENT MIXING AT ALL!!”
I think the very fact that you're trying to progress but can't figure out how to do it is the exact experience you should be getting because that's how dreams work!
I was half asleep when I started watching and it wasn't until I fully woke up I realised this wasn't a fever dream it was real. What the hell.
Have you ever had the experience that you couldn't tell whether something was a dream or not? It's very weird when something, you think you've dreamed, turns out to be real.
@@yoshui yeah I was watching the farm sequence and I was so confused as to whether I was awake or asleep it was so weird
@@yoshui happened afew time to me, it's the scariest thing sometimes.
me too, fell asleep half way through and had no idea wether this was real or not
I can pretty much say for sure that there's nothing more for you to explore in this game. The UE blueprints state there are 5 level-transitions:
farm2hands_BP (from Farm to Hands)
farm2home_BP (from Farm to Home (hub-area))
farm2island_BP (from Farm to the Island)
home2apartment_BP (From hub-area to apartments)
home2farm_BP (from hub-area to Farm)
Aww, that sucks to hear since this seems like a pretty cool concept that could have a nonlinear story to it. Though a random thought, maybe the file is set so you're only able to see those five level transitions and there's actually more to see if you look further? But nah, seems unlikely and would require a lot of programming/coding skills I assume?
Doesn’t mean there aren’t areas within you can get to, the bowl/well you fall into doesn’t count and the inversion of the apartment doesn’t count, what else could there be?
Oh man, if there's more stuff to see in this, please go through it. That was quite the special experience, I hope that's not all.
Agreed
there is more
There probably isn't more, I checked the game-files. See my other comment, if you're curious
@@TropicalMelonMan he never jumped in the toilet
As an ex cement mixer I gotta say, this is very nostalgic
2nd major area seems to be a Panopticon. Used in prisons to keep the prisoners well behaved because they could be being watched at any moment. In philosophy it's used to describe a society where hyper surveillance instills fear in people to keep them well behaved.
Bingo
Exactly what I was thinking it was
I hope the librarian will play The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe. I think these two will be great together.
the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is -LOADING- LIBRARIAN
The narrator can be a problem :)
I hope he gets the broom closet ending
@@pipebombmailer Oh! Did you get the broom closet ending? The broom closet ending is my favorite!
The stanley parable is more like a joke and this game feels more like an horror/liminal spaces game
In the third teleport when you find the cement mixer: MUSIC HAD NO RIGHT TO BE BANGING THAT HARD
I adore this kind of experience. As if your exploring a world that's absolutely and totally foreign to you. The emotions that this game in particular evoke in me are incredibly enjoyable. Similar to the liminal space maps or dream logic maps you've played. Listening to your train of consciousness going through them is quite pleasant.
These are the kinds of things I come to you to watch. So as far as it's possible, please continue to showcase similar games/maps/whatever, because I can't express enough how great it is to experience these alongside. 🙂
Definetly do more! this is so interesting, there has to be more than just the places we see on this video.
Sadly, there most likely isn't more. I made another comment about finding the possible level-transitions
There are only 5 level transitions in the game and all the levels are seen here, so no, there really isnt anything else
i really love how you try to describe the strange things that are going on, makes it almost feel like i'm watching a video of an scp researcher resaerching some strange scp
Very true.
Hey Librarian! Been watching for a while now. Before I go on just wanted to let you know that the GMOD VR Series are dominating it! Love it, keep it up (please, haha). Anyways, theres this GMOD VR Series called Sleeping in VR. Basically you go into scary maps in GMOD and actually sleep in them IRL, but you keep the headset on so your actually sleeping in GMOD. You find a place to make a 'home', explore the map and later when it starts to actually get late IRL you go to sleep in the map at your 'home'. It would be really fun to see you do, it really seems like it's something for you if your looking for a real scare. Now i know the odds are slim you'll see this, might aswell try (; If you were to find this interesting then I recommend doing it on maps like rp_downtown (OVERNIGHT DOWN IN THE DARKER PARTS OF THE MAP, SHIT HAPPENEDS LOL), or even a map like Exploring Gone Wrong (which you did a video on), or liminal space! What you like. SCP Maps aren't recommended if you shit your pants easily lol. If you were to not find it interesting then i would love to see you just play gm_basement or gm_something_else. Cya!
The best way to tell him revcomendations is on the discord. I'd recommend putting this on there!
That sounds like an awesome idea! Some technical things to work out, but that really does sound like an experience.
@@TheLibrarianYT There's been a few of these sleeping in VR Gmod Series on TH-cam I think. You can check and see what I mean by sleeping in vr gmod. Your pretty much set to go with the current GMOD VR Mod you have now. Although you do have to get something to sleep on next to your headset because sleeping on concrete floor doesn't sound like a good idea o:
Amazing idea! I've seen other TH-camrs doing that but seeing Librarian do it would be next level.
ngl gm boreas
there's something really humble about how you narrate. i don't know how to describe it, but it's comforting. keep up the work, my guy!
That is a *very* intriguing title. I'm excited to see what this is.

-Librarian trying to make Librarian mixing simulator 2020
There it is again your window whistling pop goes the weasel it's so creepy it actually adds to your videos!
The wind rumbles with faint music from an era before my time.
Those green fellows look like creepers mixed with horses.
Magenta baby hedge Jesus or so is witnessed in the bright of day.
Silos enlarge the picture, hosting creatures who somehow are pawns at play.
Right side is the enemy, player has lost.
Slowly you grow into quite the freak-show herbarium
Down down from the greenery we fall.
In the world of scarlet amaranth.
I saw a guy lose 2 fingers to a cement mixer a few years ago it still makes my skin crawl to think about it
37:41 it's just impossible to fight that human instinct to see patterns even in utter nonsense!
Hah, what...the heck. I kind of love this? Very dreamlike...Was there anything in that darker patch of water on the island? Maybe it's deeper there? No idea.
He does go down a little at one point.
no I've played the game the island is defo a dead end
@@bigmoneyben08 Ah, that's good to know.
This is the most Sunday Stream-y kind of video from you yet. I appreciate this direction. I certainly do appreciate the horror and liminal stuff too, although this certainly isn't not liminal spaces. lots of hallways, doors, stairs, paths, tunnels, etc. leading to who knows what. Just far more weird than most. :p Kinda almost egg-likey.
Very agree, this is an Egg-Lite in my book. Even has some Fantastic style jumps
’Sunday streamy’ is actually a really good way of describing it
Ok I had to pause because "Mew with a traumatic brain injury" so off guard and I love it.
this game managed to have me on edge the entire time and jumpscare me several times despite having absolutely no moving entities
Who could've thought that cement mixing involves so much heavy drugs?
As I see this game, and most likely what dev's idea was is travel through frozen surrealistic painting. Like imagine if Dali's paintings were 3d landscapes. Hence everything is frozen. Just smaller stories here and there in form of sculptures, small piece of strange art.
Hallway hallway stretches so wide.
Hallway hallway please take me in stride.
Hallway hallway ever-changing ever-growing.
Hallway hallway many doors bearing many doors opening.
Hallway hallway at this pace who knows where I’m going.
I love coming back to some of my favorite livrarian videos, he actually convinced me to get this gsme from this video haha
Same, it's crazy to think that this is already 2 years old, I remember right when it was uploaded
Just found your channel, this is some amazing content. I love your reactions, this entire video gave me "creepy yet comforting" vibes.
5:25 As a hunter, I experience this often. Usually I'm the predator that they are hiding from, but subconsciously adrenaline is pumping and fight or flight is creeping it's way to the front of my mind.
I love how I'm not jumpscared by the sudden transitions, but by the librarian's spooked reactions
You are my favourite now TH-cam channel,
I’ve seen reference on a smart tv while looking for that “liminal-spaces” trend.
(Only in reference, because the thumbnail didn’t load properly)
And I’ve rediscovered your channel on my school computer with restrictions, most of your videos didn’t show.
I did watch your vr exploration videos, I recommend it as something calming.
This game reminds me so much of "Myst", I recommend it if you haven't played it already since it's an old game. It would be nice to see you play "Superminimal" too.
OMG my dad had this game!! One day I put it in, this was when I was very young, because I thought the box looked interesting, but I couldn't understand what the hell was going on! It was very creepy to me, every once in a while things will remind me to little blurbs about it.. was there at all a story to it? Or just wandering around aimlessly like this too? I'll prolly search it up later for nostalgia.. Thank you for reminding me of it!
@@PanicLedisko man this is so old but I had to reply. I got into Myst when I was like seven or eight years old and my Dad was playing it and I'd sit in his office watching him play and writing down notes and maps and stuff. It did have a story to it, and is also one of the easiest games to legitimately speed run though I didn't discover that til years later. Hope ya got round to playing it some time in the last two years xD
this and it's sequel were two of the first games i played for my channel, and honestly two of my favorite indie games of all time. Sadly i'm pretty sure their not finished and never will be.
I love how this guy perfectly commentates all of his thoughts
His narration style sounds like he’s reading a Reddit horror story but that’s just his intonation style oddly
13:20 I'm right there with ya - totally thought that was some kinda ghosty business
honestly this gives fever dream vibes! to the point where i almost feel that ive had that dream.
The songs are sooo relaxing
You're absolutely right! So far (I haven't finished the video yet), this totally reminds me of LSD Dream Emulator too!
Though what came first to mind was actually Yume Nikki! Especially with it being less randomized, the doors and just the entire atmosphere!
Edit: Watched the entire video now and yes please! Please more of this! I'm hooked!
I love the vibes of this game and I'm super curious what more it has to offer!
Again, it reminds me a little of Yume Nikki (which btw, if you never played it I'd love to see your playthrough of it some day! It's free on steam!), but it definitely got very much its own thing going on!
@@oxymoron02 oops, my bad! lol
tbf i was pretty tired when i wrote that comment
Gosh I love how this doesn't make sense, yet doesn't NOT make sense. You feel a connection through similarity and desimilarity, you make connections of things that don't make sense, the emblems, the creatures, the panopticon dudes. It feels like a description of Wonderlands genre (It's not that there are no rules, but rather the rules are simply different) combined with dreams of surreality.
I would totally love a series.
That said, no idea what you're supposed to do.
Something I’ve noticed in the comments. Anyone else feel like that everyone has become very emotionally involved and more analytical? Interesting how this game seems to draw upon that side so constantly between multiple people.
i think thats the joy of abstract/surreal art. everyone finds something to click with in the bizarre patterns and imagery, so everyone has something to say
This kind of experience requires a deeper level of thought because none of it makes sense we all get to be scared creeped out and eventually enlightened through the experience and it's funny that most triple A games can't even do that
That round building accessed from the bathtub reminded me of a panopticon prison. I don't know if that was an inspiration.
i'm really Interrested in what this game has to offer. So i hope you'll do more of this and hopefully also find more stuff ^^
You make an excellent straight man for these odd games. Like the main character from Andy's apple farm
This is like a horror video i saw a while ago that i forgot his name, the more you try to find lore, you find even more questions althoug you are never going to figure out the questions
I say this about every obscure game that I see but like
This definitely remind sme of mental health issues, especially with the hotel place, the second major area librarian comes across
It gives me vibes about derealization, schizophrenia, and depression
There's definitely more to the game, but from what I theorize;
The first area, I dont know, I couldn't think of much past existential dread
But the second area definitely gives me vibes of paranoia (being watched, from the horned people in the windows, and the deer-like people) derealization (everybody watches you, but they dont /actually/ see you, nobody moves, everything is static, as if you are the only REAL person), monotony of life (How everything is the same, and repeats throughout each place, same "characters", same items). And overall seems to be the mind of someone who is definitely not normal, something I can relate to, plus, can any "normal" person think of these things.
From what I've gathered, even if I haven't finished the video yet: Somebody who finds refuge in something small, like their job, or an item, and uses said item as a coping mechanism (cement mixer, fire extinguisher, computer), and everybody who originally appeared as green leaf people, who while oddly creepy, dont seem to pose a threat, devolve into strange frail flesh things. They feel watched often, and appear to have a heavy disliking for overruling people, like police and government. The paranoia and distrust leads me to believe schizophrenia, especially with the odd amount of imagery, which also suggests derealization. Kinda feels like a game made to vent
Its hard to explain and like.. That's obvious, none of this makes sense, and while I do relate to it, fuck if I know what exactly I relate to, I just resonate with whatever this is, and I might just be projecting my mental health issues and misinterpriting everything, could even just be a game intended to confuse people
Fascinating!
I would watch more of this if there is more to explore, squiggly man.
"Squiggly man"
squiggly man!
Hendecad
You know, with everything standing still and the insane amount of little details and activities, this reminds me of those mob-scenery drawings
This is the kind of game that compels me to make a map, to find every little detail and record it.
12:18 there a polar bear headbutting a football in that shadow
*walks into a room full of cement mixers*
ive won!
After you discovered that you can walk in the shallow water around the island, didn't you wonder what the darker patch of water was all about?
A constructive critique, if I could!
I notice in a lot of videos (including this one) where things are very weird or abstract, you state that you are struggling to commentate over the video when you lack something concrete to comment upon what you're experiencing. You also seem to be annoyed or irritated by this fact, or at least apologetic that you are not able to commentate at that moment.
I just wanted to say, it's okay! You don't |always| have to commentate.
I can tell you enjoy breaking down experiences in a game and theorizing why something is a certain way... But if a game briefly leaves you lost for words, just vibe with it. No need to get frustrated or irritated about it. Heck, if it's odd enough to leave you at a loss, then you can probably bet it's captivating a lot of your audience watching in the same way.
And sometimes a bit of silence now and then can go a long way to augmenting a commentary, too.
I just wanted to express this, because sometimes you seem very stressy when things are not flowing the way you expect and...well, I sometimes am the same way with my own content. I've been learning that it's best to relax and just roll with things sometimes. The best laid plans may turn into something even better if you're willing to let go of them from time to time. And it's usually a more enjoyable experience for an audience if the content creator is not stressing too hard, as well.
something “concrete” to comment on… i see what you did there bucko…
@@N.C.Burgess OMG that was actually an accident. XD
Hey Librarian, there is a link to a follow up that can be played in VR Chat, think it would be interesting to check out
This game has the energy of a recurring dream that makes you dread going to bed.
I very rarely watch videos longer than twenty minutes, but this has got to be the most captivating thing I've seen all year, would absolutely love another episode.
If you liked what this game was going for but would like to see it executed with in way where you actually progress... You'd LOVE the Submachine series.
It's a collection of 10 short point and click 2D puzzle games, where you're stuck in ever-expanding, endless, inescapable structures designed by any and all cultures you could imagine making them. Well... Assuming anyone really made them.
Basically you're trying to escape liminal spaces - with lore. It's a fascinating ride made over 10 years, and beyond the occasional stupid puzzle solution I think you'd enjoy it!
Every game only radically improves on the previous on the previous one, and it probably has one of the coolest climaxes in the genre. What an amazing final game...
if you read this I hope you have an amazing day, your content makes all the difference to my mornings. Cheers!
I'm enjoying your comments and responses to these weird worlds! It's also cool how asset recycling, usually seen as a bad thing or neccecary evil, maps pretty well to dream-like connectivity and surreality. Anyway you got a sub +1 : )
the game makes you jump, despite having no moving parts.
I work on a submarine, and I can confirm: sudden lack of sound is worse than constant sound. A lack of sound means something isn't running, and there is likely a bad reason for it
I absolutely adore the way you commentate over this game. It really adds something to the experience, sometimes comical and sometimes insightful. It’s really unique, in a way I cant quite put into words yet. I think I’ll be coming back for more
It's so mind boggling that after watching the video i start to question whether i'm experiencing reality or not
This is a very "Egg-like" type game.
bruh the game has better lighting than any 2003 game
To me this guy is like another one of my favourite youtubers “manlybadasshero” so this guy is pretty cool and if you like this guy then you might like manly
32:49 ah yes the infinite toilet dimension this was definitely inspired by dreams the toilet dimension is a well known phenomenon almost everyone experiences in their dreams and unlike bernard's door it's actually real
Please continue playing, with your commentary it made such a good experience.
17:45 hands down the funniest moment in the video
Haha bless his heart, it kept scaring me too!!
i saw there was a lower level to a couple of the silos, could you get in there by dropping down from above?
What's more shocking is,taking a look, there's only so few videos of the game. All with a same and or shorter time span.
There might be nothing BUT!
What if we take a look at the game files? Now it says it's from 2003 but when is the actual game made?
Perhaps, check the other games of the developer;
News, info, ideas, maybe more of him to discover if he made more stuff, will help
Indeed all seems fascinating but crypticaly superfluous to the few who can decipher it
This game saved my life. Twice.
This reminds me of #21:The World.
In the sense that it's dreamlike in the way it transitions.
That music on the cement mixer island really bumps
my brother was watching this video on the tv when i was sleeping on the couch, and some of the video leaked into my dream
so before i watch fully, i'm gonna state my dream and see how similar it was
1. it started as a horror video game with very pixelated features and jagged movements
2. the player was walking down a pathway through a purple cornfield towards an open, yet empty, barn - the player commented on how they found it dumb they couldn't jump over the tilled dirt mounds that the corn grew from, despite the mounds being very short
3. as the player progressed through the game, enemies started appearing; they were cultists, and only one actually would follow you around - any time the player did something the cultists didn't like, the youngest would appear behind them and just stare at them while following them around - the cultist was a flat 2d pixelated person with short straight hair and a long, divine-like robe, and at one point (despite the usual jagged animation,) their face smoothly contorted to an exaggerated, outraged expression as the player continued
4. the main goal was to head to a building on top of a mountain, as that's where a murder among the cult took place, and the player was investigating
5. after multiple failed/different endings, the player finds a way to throw themselves to the top of the (rather short) mountain, breaking through the symbol-covered door, only for the game to restart with a new intro
6. the intro would introduce the enemies, each cultist's face flashing across the screen with their names, all were elderly save for the main cultist who followed you around - however, a new person was introduced, and a black screen popped up with eyes and the name 'the crimson cultist'
7. the enemies were milking a massive, udder-shaped creature that was gray and grossly wrinkly, and every liquid came out as a vividly colored liquid - no clue what they did with it
8. it was implied that the young cultist murdered the crimson cultist, just judging by how they were the only one actively preventing you from going up to the mountain
aaaand that's all that happened before i woke up- curious to see how much came from this video playing while i was sleeping
“take my moms advice and take a long walk off a short pier” felt that.
you have a lovely voice for this game, great midnight content ❤️
That last area reminds me of a game called 0_abyssalSomewhere, in how everything looks decayed and frozen in time. I wish more games did that because it's very effective at getting me intrigued in what happened to cause it.
idk why i like weird games it just gives me that feeling of why do i exist and makes me question my entire existence
You're my favourite TH-camr now, your video have very few editings, short intro and no background music. Some other TH-camr edited the video way too much and made the game not horror anymore.
there is a dark patch in the water on the island zone. maybe you can sink underwater there?
Creator was definitely on LSD or something when they made this game lol
Bright little island, quaint little temple.
Repair the ruins, prepare for greatness.
Statues of deities whisper of your trials.
Come icarus, take your turn, play wisely, else you’ll never go through their false sense of cheer.
Far away little island, strange little temple.
Runas is awaiting you icarus.
Both sides are waiting.
Either embrace the sea, or worship the -monster- .
I just checked, the bathroom is open from the start
EDIT: I did restart the game with r once accidentally before I reached the top floor, so if that is the trigger then zamn i guess
theres a sequel called Hendecad on itchio which might be worth checking out
All the exposed toilets the atmosphere reminded me of boot camp back in the day
The weird dehumanizing sensation
This game was cool, though I do wonder if you experienced all of it or not. Too hard to tell.
It was most likely all of it, sadly
something about your voice just make it feels so calm even in a tense part
I agree. This game, so far, is not what I was thinking it'd be like. But I do like what I've seen. 😀
bro, when he fell to the bottom of the silo i died inside
Im mad there isnt a 27 part series on this. Just found your channel. Subbed
Because, there isnt more to the game.

@@Emil215p There is a sequel
A title like that with a game like this and its from The Librarian? This will be awesome for sure!
Finally! Something that gave me a pure disturbing feeling.
Idk if I should cellebrate it or what.
im just thinking about early humanity, when you said that there was like some cut sound and some predator thing, and that thats why we get scared when we hear cut off sounds, and that we are from early humanity.
what is the meaning of life?
If I were to suggest other downright bizarre walking sim-type games, try the Mondo games. Mondo Medicals is one of them. Forgot what the other is called
Faces... too small for the heads... Malicious smile... CHARLIE KIRK!!!
The soundtrack is really good at being unsettling
