Its finally complete. Hope everyone enjoys and has a Happy Halloween.
when is lost episode iceberg part 2 coming out?
Interesting theory. Kind of reminds me of the Lost Episodes creepypasta, where they were all made by one guy who had a weird fascination for cutting tapes.
sacrow i found an ad about this vid
What If Red met and attacked Shin Godzilla? Could he possibly kill Shin or, would Shin just keep adapting to Red's attacks.
No one's bought this up before. I don't think.
can you make a part 2 of that pls ty
One of my favorite theories for the ending is that the blue angel is not in fact Melissa, but another otherworldly entity like Red trapped in the game. While benevolent, it was bound by the same rules as Red, so it had to manipulate Zachary into freeing it by disguising itself as his deceased girlfriend.
I like that theory a lot actually.
That sounds like a better ending than the one we got tbh
Hm...interesting.
That theory kinda actually makes sense when you really think about it
So it called itself Melissa _just_ to make Zachary trust it in some way.
I can dig it. Especially since we don't know in what way Melissa was related to the game, other than the name drops and vague appearances to her. We don't even know if she even owned the cartridge.
i know its supposed to be scary but Red looking straight at the protagonist when calling him an asshole is really funny to me
I can see how that would be funny. It's pretty rude of him.
"Heard you were talking shit"
Red looks at him like “listen here you little shit”
Scared me.
The fact that his mouth is as closed as it'll get is the icing on the cake. Sells the 'teeth clenched death stare' bit.
I like to think that when Red said “I killed Melissa” it wasn’t as if he was inside Melissa’s mind
*he was the truck driver*
Red is Truck-kun
How wouæd that make sense tho
@@dantelawrence4676 BAHAHAH
It could be the game's way to mentally fuck with Zach.
Nah man
He WAS the truck
One of my favourite part of this creepypasta is how the organic level has never been called "hyper realistic" once
"What the hell does hyperrealistic even mean?"
-fleetway super sonic
oh my god i never thought about that, it really highlights how well written this creepypasta is
The closest it comes is calling it "semi-realistic" once, which is pretty apt because look at it
My favorite aspects about NES Godzilla is just how utterly surreal it is compared to other creepypastas. Most game creepypastas would just make their haunted games look like Zenith and barely anything else.
I’m sorry
@@johndwolynetz6495 victim #1?
I think what makes the run level so creepy is the actual fact that it tells you to run. I haven't seen every Godzilla movie but from the ones I've seen Godzilla doesn't seem like the type of character to run from an enemy. The fact Godzilla does have to run away in these levels shows how dangerous and terrifying the red monster is.
How do you want to *die*
@@redcreepypastanes3355 Oh shit.
Yeah. The only time I can recall Godzilla ever outright running was his first round with MechaGodzilla in the Showa series, and that was only after MG unloaded enough firepower on him to level all of Europe, and he later came back for another go anyway. Otherwise he typically stands his ground when he's outmatched and goes down kicking and screaming. Even Destoroyah, who's basically walking kryptonite to Godzilla and outright killed him (or at least sped up the process), only managed to piss him off at most.
@@splitjawjanitor5369 I would say "piss him off" is an understatement.
Fella was pretty angry (and sad for a moment) at having his only son killed
Squidward: " *I sure do love being NES Gojira!* "
SpongeRED: " *Hi squidward!* "
*RUN!*
The thing I really like on this Creepypasta are the Monster designs and the original content. These are sick af
I love the sprite work. A ton of love and care went into crafting this story.
yes i am very sexy indeed
@@Frieza_Fanboy what
@@Rei_Chiquita_ i used to have a red themed account, kinda like you have a steven universe one
That’s for sure! Legit, the original monsters in this creepypasta would make for great kaiju foes for Godzilla and his allies to battle.
PATHOS: a quality that evokes pity or sadness
TRANCE: a half-conscious state characterized by an absence of response to external stimuli
DEMENTIA: a descent to madness or lunacy caused by an external factor
ENTROPY: lack of order or predictability; gradual decline into disorder
EXTUS: outworldly.......
ZENITH: the time at which something is most powerful or successful
i guess you also noticed all ðe new worlds are just named wiþ a word involving ðe mind
@@jan_Eten What is that strange word you wrote. I have never seen the letter before.
@@SuperDestroyerFox oh, þ and ð represent ðe 2 main sounds ðat th make. þ is ðe voiceless dental fricative (ðe same sound θ represents), and ð is ðe voiced dental fricative (which is sometimes spelled dh, like in ðe gaelic name Aodhán)
@@jan_Eten I read that and basically interpreted it as “glee Olay djdo unio”
Personally I don't think there's any "mystery" with "STILL THE BEST 1973," it's something entirely personal to the *character* of Solomon. I always read it as Solomon himself putting that end of level card up and saying that out loud. From an out of universe perspective I think it was just something random made up to be wholly of the character, to give this weird man-bat some personality. And for me, it absolutely worked!
Apparently the creator didn't mean anything with it and just put it in for a laugh and to see if people would turn it into a meme. Mission accomplished, I'd say.
Yeah, I always interpreted it as an homage to weird, poorly-translated messages in older games like "I am error" or "all your base are belong to us".
@@splitjawjanitor5369STILL THE BEST 1973
The sprite that always creeped *me* the most out was the "blank" gray face. And of course, it looked even worse when it got killed. I like the author's style and how it makes even these little things unsetting
Face was the best character tbh
i love the authors style, everything genuinely made me miss characters like face and SOLOMON YEAAAHHH I LOVE SOLOMON STILL THE BEST
@@Jah0479 did you know face was ðe inspiration for flowey from undertale?
@@jan_Eten cool fact man
i think they work so well because the author wasn't really good in this field, his work feels plausible, but uncanny. this is why it works so well
Ah yes Solomon my favorite Godzilla monster since 1976
The best
@@shaynehughes6645 true
“Not this time, asshole!”
*Vine thud sound effect*
Love how Red added not only his own (unsettling) bosses into the game, but Titano, Biollante, and in the playable version, Destroyah (who so happens to come RIGHT before the big bad...). Makes you wonder- how did he find out about them? How much does he really know? Did he tap into Zach's kaiju knowledge, or... is he lurking on the Internet...?
He just really likes godzilla
@@shaynehughes6645 i can only imagine red just looking at the Godzilla wiki
The game itself seems aware of the Godzilla franchise, Red is just one entity living in its “world”. The sequel states that the only constant among the personalized game worlds is Godzilla monsters
The sequel confirms that the game is personalized to it's user, so it's most likely a case of it reading Zach's mind
@@quiteabizarreone6441 But that begs the question, if the entire game was personalized for Zach, including Red, then how come the latter knew of Zach? And most importantly, how did Red get so much power over the game that he managed to manipulate and kill Melissa?
your theory at the end reminds me of this old story i read when i was going through my creepypasta phase as a teenager, about how all the "scary lost episode" creepypastas are actually made by this kid who loved video editing and became obsessed with making creepy, disturbing versions of cartoons by splicing together episodes and random footage and photos after his best friend showed him an edited episode of lassie with the ending of old yeller spliced in that he would hide among the regular vhs tapes at the video store they worked at
I have heard of it. It's a pretty good story if I remember correctly.
@@Sacrow yeah it's actually pretty well written, i just described it poorly cus i can't remember it well lmao
@@Kevinblue035 It's called Sid's tapes
@@boomymanlyman9876 yep. Pretty good story until the end imo
I just noticed reds face was in the moon
Very cool. RED is everywhere.
LOOK AT THE MOON
@@greatwavefan397 DO NOT LOOK AT THE MOON TONIGHT
DJEJRJDNNEEJDNEJJERNJDBDBRNRRB
A theory is that the moon was replaced by zenith
@@Jor_P yeah but it looks like reds face is in there
Red just looking at the camera after being cussed out was both hilarious and spine chilling.
"No curse words on my Christian Minecraft server!"
Red felt so hurt by it that he decided to fuck Zach up mentally emotionally and physically
no creepypasta will ever beat nes godzilla for me, even though its not really scary at all due to it being personalized as you explained
It's a fun story, even if the ending isn't super creepy.

One of the monsters in this creepypasta looks exactly like something I had in a pretty bad nightmare I had as a kid.
The monster is notbaragon if you're curious.
Don’t mind me asking, but did he have that one attack that’s amusing to most people?
frl, it's like the creepiest not-monster
not-mechagodzilla is more on the uncanny valley side, baragon just looks creepy outright
@@DialgaDiamondGaming Haha. Pee pee gun
why are you the 2nd person i've seen say they saw a monster from this creepypasta in a dream as a kid
Fun fact for those who care: Nidoking's design was inspired by baragon.
*this was literary the evangelion of creepy pastas*
Never read a more accurate statement.
Evangelion stupid.
Breaking Bad better.
No
That comparison just makes sense
@@Demortixxyes
@Sacrow
RED: This monster represents the destruction of one's moral compass and is the culmination of Zachary's buried sin that he has to push through. This actually gives this monster purpose, unlike almost all gaming creepypastas where they just put in a demonic figure just because. Even after he defeats RED, Zachary still cannot stop thinking about the game and it starts to affect his normal life in a negative way. That's why he said that he didn't care how the game was going to be sold away from him or how selfish he wanted this to happen, but he just wanted it out of his life. Finally, this monster, the chase levels, and the painful final fight is the exact representation of that sometimes you cannot outrun your past.
That doesn't make any sense though, in the story red says that he killed Melissa which means that he is clearly separate from Zachary and doesn't have anything to do with his "buried sin". And even if he was his "buried sin" then how would an abstract concept be able to kill someone?
@@hjk4583Abstract concepts can kill…considering that grief and depression is capable of such by either distracting someone while they’re on or near a road…or through suicide.
@@arthurpettigrew3074 Hnmmm... I don't know any murderers that go by the name of "grief" or "depression", do you?
Zachary’s a Godzilla fan, much like everyone else
He’s a fan of the newer games, but doesn’t mind playing the classics
@@Hats502He’d never played a glitchy or hacked game. But he doesn’t think he wants to, not after what he saw.
I'd honestly say this is one of the better gaming creepypastas out there just because the narrator is very human. Chalking things up as glitches and even when Red looks at him for talking mad smack for someone in cursing distance, he assumes it's chance that something so spooky happened.
I dont mind the whole Melissa thing tbh, but it was executed rather poorly. Her being able to directly talk/communicate to Zach made things abit cheesy. But overall its still a really good creepypasta. (i like the part where the moonbeast design and motif represents what exactly happened on the night of Melissa's final episode)
Its rushed.
same, the noticable black spot representing the tire mark on melissa was an horrific detail
Wait i never noticed that
Honestly red turning at the guy after being called a asshole is funny like i imagine red being offended and feeling like him being called as asshole was uncalled for when red was just doing his job or something.
That made me imagine whoever cursed this cartridge/made it putting out an employment add with a summoning circle or something for a demonic bounty hunter
And the bat monster (forgot their name already) is a rival that keeps getting "employee of the month"
What really sucked me into this creepypasta was the exploration aspect.
Starting with Pathos, the new worlds were very unique and memorable and starting with Dementia, it seemed they developed entire functioning ecosystems.
...if only it wasn't for that ending. Besides the cheesy "the power of love and friendship" moment, it's just not as well written, like the authors writing skill dropped a few academic levels just before writing it.
I still love it though.
I'm guessing they either rushed the ending or just wanted a sort of happy ending, or both
@@KyrosTheWolf More of a happy ending, which he deserved. The epilogue gave it a more bittersweet close to the series as he wanted the game out of his life.
Even the for game made in 1988 the graphics were pretty damn good.
Yeah, I agree.
Yeah but keep in mind most stuff in the creepypasta wasn't in the original 1988 game, and would be way too much for an NES cartridge. Idk whether the author didn't know NES limitations or they thought the graphical effects on an NES game added to the supernatural creepypasta theme
@@KyrosTheWolf oh yeah I know that. I even completed the actual game while going through the pasta.
People hate the ending but I think it's fun. But, I love corny stuff so maybe that's it
Agreed, also gaming creepypastas never have happy endings so the big win at the end is much more unique than Zachary just dying
I don't know, it just kind of seemed like lazy writing to me. It is much easier to end a story with "and then they conquered the big bad monster and everyone lived (except for Melissa) happily ever after." then creating a profound ending to top it all off but that's just me
@@hjk4583 the only other option in that situation is “the bad guy kills the hero and wins and everything sucks” which I would argue is even lazier, especially for a horror story
@@Cdr2002 Well it only takes a little bit of thinking to realize that the possibilities of a good ending are endless. Like what if Zach succumbs to red and gets trapped in the game forever? What if he saves Melissa but red is secretly still controlling her or red has posessed her body? What if red turns out to be more than just some kind of demon that lives in a videogame that has killed Melissa, like he is some god or eldritch creature that we could not possibly understand? You can see there is much more possibilities than everyone lives happily ever after or everyone dies and things suck
how to avoid the "creepypasta ending probrem" make it a happy ending not a bad one oh wait now you have the "movie ending probrem" to fix this make it a bad ending not a good ending
*OH* *WAIT* *YOURE* *BACK* *AT* *IT* *AGAIN*
I love how pissed red looks when he gets called an asshole. Like he has this “the duck you just call me?” Face like when you swear at a parent.
Oooh I got an idea. The guy who's selling these cursed shady games is a yet to be discovered SCP
That is a cool idea. Bring all of the worlds together.
Hmm, not a bad idea, but I always thought of haunted games to be SCPs in and of themselfes.
Maybe we have a sort of Dr. Wondertainment guy on our hands.
I personally disagree. I believe this story and the cartridge should be kept as its own seperate creation rather than being just....absorbed into SCP.
@@Sacrow what if every single creepy rom was made by this “guy” such as I hate you and other Verisons of the game like that Maybe he even made the “perfect gam”
@@yith2116 yeah, every time something is supernatural, a bunch of kids make it all about SCP, THE most overrated science fiction franchise
I never noticed reds face in the moon before you see him for the first time, that's a great touch.
I really like how this creepypasta begins and still also like the middle, but the fucking ending is such a huge turn off.
That is a very common opinion. I can see where it comes from though. I didn't mind it, but it was super corny.
it wasnt that bad
You mean the bit where Melissa returns in the form of a blue angel? Or the bit where Zachary sells the game? If it were up to me I'd get rid of the game like in Jumanji
every world until zenith was great because they, for the most part, didnt have the melissa sidestory
Don’t worry, transcendence fixed it for you.
Nice. This creepypasta is pretty good. The only thing questionable for me is the ending, which I won't spoil here. XD
I'll reply to myself for anybody who wants to know my opinion.
what is it
@@sandman1576 Well, I'm sure the video goes over it, but it's basically this. The final showdown with Red involves Zach feeling actual real pain. A bit of a cliche, but I don't really mind it. Then a new game character that defeats Red turns out to be his dead girlfriend. Kinda out there, but I don't really mind that either. What bothers me is the fact that after he plays it, he sells it on eBay. He says it's because he doesn't want to be responsible for it. I guess that's understandable, but just letting it go to whoever buys it when it had your dead girlfriend's soul in it just seems...wrong? Though it is kind of a setup for the sequel, which is a different experience for a different person. Maybe it didn't actually have a soul in it, and Zach was just projecting, but I don't know. Just seems weird to me. Maybe I'd feel better if he had entrusted it to a friend or something, and not just sold it to a stranger.
I thought the ending was cheesy but well deserved for zack.
@@pundertalefan4391 maybe after defeating red everything apart of the game that was related to his girlfriend and red were wiped.
@@lenixkalazar3086 That could also be the case. That would make things at least a bit better. XD
The video: "What kind of game could it be, it could be a rom hack."
Subtitles: "It could be romance."
*Godzilla Nes Creepypasta Dating Sim.*
i personally would've preffered of Melissa didnt become an actual part of it, i would have personally prefered if Zach found another way, maybe even just thorugh sheer, pure detemrination to keep fighting and not let Red win, or maybe even a downer ending where Zach succumbs to Red
Otherwise? Definetly an S-tier gaming creepypasta, super excited to getting aprund to reading Rpelay sometime
Now that a Game Adaptation of the Creepypasta is underway, I can't wait to see the Full Version.
wait really?
Red’s face in the red moon in the empty Pathos levels is meant to be a frightening observation, but I can’t help but laugh at the bored face he has
I love the theory of the games salesman. Perhaps the creepypastas never actually happened, and they're just representations of how visiting old childhood memories can bring up repressed traumas.
King Kong: Who is that?????
Godzilla: Just run you monke!!!!!!
Squidward: "I sure do love being NES Gojira!"
spongeRED: " *Hi Squidward!* "
*RUN!*
rip my homie face he was weird but he was a real one 😔😔

Things like NES Godzilla and Petscop just never fail to impress me. So much passion put into the games.
I noticed that during the blue levels that Jupiter was supposed to fill, red's face can be seen on the moon.
Fun fact : a sequel to this was made about some years ago, it was called: godzilla replay
I like how the red moon has Red's face
I love how Red followed the same trait as some of Godzilla's enemies: He evolves, like Destroyah, for example.
i like how instead of the player dying or being trapped inside the game, they survive and never touch it again. we dont usually see this kind of game creepypasta
"He heard a low bellowing sound"
The ad 2 seconds later: *FREEDOM!!!!*
Yes one of the only creepypastas I actually liked 👍
There's so many good ones though.
@@Sacrow I remember a creepypasta that was an apocalypse only kids could survive and after a lot of details you hear a fairy say "Hey Listen"
@@derpyplayer4374 Are you talking about Xorax? I heard that one on the Tatstopvideos experiment pastas list.
@@Sacrow yes, but also a lot of bad ones, which are usually the more popular ones, sadly. I personally liked The Terrible Secret of Animal Crossing, and Strangled Red.
"Do you like Mothra?"
"No"
*Proceeds to give him his least favorite character for an entire-ass world
Melissa’s soul being in the game doesn’t bother me, it connects to everything else provided. Acacius is the real “dues ex machina” bit but I can get past it because I enjoy a happy ending, especially for a genre where they so rarely exist. I DO wish at the very least Zachary had like, made Godzilla shoot a heat beam into Red’s mouth just as G was dying or something
To me, horror is at its finest when it deals with deep, personal traumas. Anyone can throw you a bunch of blood, some monsters, ghosts or demons and call it a day. I mean, that works fine most of the time. But when the source of horror in a story attacks the protagonist with their own personal demons, it's a lot more serious and terrifying. It's no coincidence that some of the most acclaimed pieces of horror fiction use that tactic, like the Silent Hill series and some of Stephen King novels.
NES Godzilla Creepypasta simply takes that approach to the next level; all garnished with some great worldbuilding, great suspense and a very good use of spritework to make the horror much more palatable. So much that, by the time we get to Zenith - where the story starts to get a little cliched, we're too invested and horrified to really complain.
That's why it's my personal favourite creepypasta of all time and even one of the scariest pieces of fiction I've seen.
Oh! An ad that's literally about my favorite creepypasta
That's how you get them.
1. That was fast
2. I just realized who you were
I don't usually run ads but a fellow TH-camr recommended running them occasionally. So I'm giving a whirl. Hope you like the video.
The way this video was made is absolutely beautiful! Me being me, I would like to see more videos with story telling like this!
face is the creepiest part for me. just left alone in a dark room with him. nothing related to godzilla. nothing to do with anything really and making a bunch of odd faces that you can’t tell if they’re random or related to the answer you gave
"Still the best 1973" was, IIRC, just something Cosbydaf put in to see if it'd become a meme.
This is one of few creepypastas that genuinely unnerved me. It's up there with BEN Drowned.
The Godzilla NES creepypasta, is literally the most disturbing video game creepypasta have probably ever read. Every time I keep reading more and more of it, just feel more unsettled. It's the only creepypasta I've ever read that made me too scared to go to sleep. My favorite 👍
this is one of my favorite Creepypastas, with it being so real, and an actual game you could play to, makes it my favorite
This is really cool good job
Love your content keep up the great work
11:38 I like to imagine red’s thinking “WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU!?” right after he failed to catch godzilla
Ohh my Favorite Chreepypasta with Ben Drowned.
I think it's the fact that the Author(?) provided alot of the "Screenshots", making it super immersive... Also I'm a sucker of detailed worlddescriptions. But Jesus was the Ending corny..
Please do make more of these creepypasta videos, this one was the best and so are the others but i loved this one by far
I'm glad you liked it. I have a lot more of these planned.
What I really like about this story is how much more fleshed out it is than the common trite of the gaming creepypasta genre. You ever play the fan game of Sonic.exe? It sucks. It’s boring. You walk to the right and die three times. Nothing happens, no real story within the game itself. It’s completely accurate to the original story, but the original story was ass.
Godzilla NES meanwhile does what no other gaming creepypasta does to my knowledge: a full haunted playthrough, if you will. Not a few glitches or a brief specific experience. An entire game of anomalies, aberrations, and horrors. Subsequently, an entire journey for our main character where he actually goes through multiple emotions. It uses many of the common tropes yes, but it has something the vast VAST majority of other gaming pastas lack: depth.
I like to think "still the best" means that solomon will come BACK in replay in some sort of way, and there he'll be in fact, still the best
i hope solomon does come back, if the sequel adds more monsters. It would be cool if they added more lore on Solomon
@@blueblaze27 what's the sequel and how many chapters are there?

The art the author made is really good and I still find Red unsettling. Sometimes I imagine his face looking at me when I’m in a dark room and it makes me feel uneasy, which is dumb but it’s credit to how good his design is.
NES Godzilla is the kind of creepypasta that needs to be illustrated, to be watched and not just listened to, especially the bits with the questions and reacting faces. Super congrats to those who have illustrated it 😎👾 p 🖌️ ...and to Sacrow, of course
Yall did too good, the Moguera sprite in the actual game doesn't even move XD
"Some of the questions were kind of personal, like 'do you like hurting people?'"
Jacket? Is that you??
I love RED, the whole Melissa thing was a bit weird, but REDs design is absolutely haunting and unforgettable
Solomon needs his own game
NES Godzilla is my favorite creepypasta of all times! Also this is a one of my favorite games of my childhood!
I have my own personal theory about RED and the main story within the Creepypasta.
As stated around the end of the video, RED is a demonic representation of the condition Melissa had (implied to be dementia in-game), meaning that RED isn't technically real. RED is a manifestation of both Melissa's dementia but also Zach's subconscious. The dementia part is shown with the 'Not-[[insert Godzilla monster here]]' characters, like Not-Gezora and Not-Gigan, etc. While Zach himself probably doesn't have dementia, it represents Melissa in the sense that the game is 'forgetting' what the monsters look like, turning them into strange abominations.
It isn't RED that keeps Zach playing the game, it's Zach's subconscious. Him playing the game is his way of coping with Melissa's death, fighting against her dementia and the creatures that spawn from it. He wants to stop, but is physically incapable of doing so because his body isn't letting him. He's getting himself hurt the longer he plays, but his subconscious convinces his body to keep playing so as to fully cope. RED was able to hurt Zach because Zach couldn't accept the real truth: Melissa is truly dead, and realizing that caused him physical pain. It could be him hurting himself because of his denial, or he's hurting himself from the pain of realizing that RED is what killed Melissa. It pains him to face RED because RED is his guilt personified. "If only I could've helped her with her condition", "If only I could've stopped her from running out in the road". (Not actual quotes, just small theories as to what went through Zach's head during that fight.)
Melissa herself as 'The Angel' is the part of Zach that wants to let go, that needs Zach to win in order realize the truth but not let it consume him in a negative way. The part of Zach that wants him to forgive himself for her death. Acacius was hard for me to pin down what he was exactly, but I think Acacius represents either the beauty of the truth and how good life will be if Zach accepts the truth and moves on, or the Archangel Michael, as there's a few small religious tones within the story. Though, I find the first one a bit more agreeable.
This is all a theory. I understand if you want to believe RED is an actual demon that caused Melissa to kill herself, this is just my 'realistic' take on things. I find it a bit scarier, as it's easier to relate to and seems more plausible.
EDIT: this was copied and pasted from another comment on another NES Godzilla video, so if you see inconsistencies, it was because they were more relevant to the other video compared to this one.
I think the weird faces 1-12 are the following 1. I’ll 2. Traumatized probobaly 3. Breath for air or The look when you get punched in the stomach 4. tired smoker 5. Disgusted confusion 6. Cyclops surprised 7. Upside down neutral 8. Stupid or dumb 9. Ninja or sneaky 10. Clowning around or being called a joke 11. Bold 12. Malicious “13.” (The one that appears on Zenith quiz level) caught by red/dead
im sorry but the part where the person says "not this time, asshole!" and RED stares at the player makes me crack up. RED looks so offended it's hilarious to me
in the period between this and the other appearence of red, he was having a mental breakdown...
I'm very late here but I think it's worth noting that Orga is from the movie Godzilla 2000, which was released in 1999
11:41 tbh this isn’t the main image I think of when thinking of this pasta, it gives me similar vibes to Flandre scarlet in bad apple.

Small nitpick, but an idea with evidence is a theory, your idea of an onnitiont game dealer is a hypothesis. Love the video dude! Would love to see you expand on your idea!
Damn dude great intro music and informative video
In 25:25 solomon’s eyes are green because he was actually serving red so when red was killed he was out of red’s control
6:01 i never noticed that you can see the creatures face in the moon
thank you so much for nor including the screams from the monster
The red moon has reds face on it nice little touch
The thing is that this is the greatest creepy pasta because it aces in all types of creepypastas. Including murder, glitches, odd messages and changes, and a monster never seen from before
"its also the start of the personalized horror--"
*_You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?_*
Me who doesn't have any trauma:
I am four parallel universes ahead of you
at 6:10 you can notice red's face etched in the moon
Yes someone else who can see it
How does this not have thousands of likes?
Thank you. It's growing. Lots of competition.
I wonder if there’s an alternate world where this was a rom hack rather than personalised horror, Red was a custom monster instead of a demon and the Angel was instead a biblically accurate one that would bless the monsters once they had reached it.
The intro soundtrack so nice i almost passed out
6:07 If you look closely at the moon you can see red's face
Every copy of NES Godzilla is personalized.
As to your theory it couldn't work with sonic exe and Ben drowned lore because in exe lore X the evil sonic has his own cult as does Ben but he was a dead member of the Moon Children
However Exe with a half good rewrite could have the cult of X not only use Sonic but things like Zach's Godzilla and be the same creature as Red
Yes, I'm thinking of expanding this theory in a later video. Once I get my thoughts together.
Nice video! A new sub for you!
I won't lie even though this is just a fake story it did scare me a bit but the 8bit designs are amazing
27:08 iirc, the ben drowned arg actually confirms who gave jedusable the cartridge so this doesn't work
fun fact- flowey from undertale was heavily inspired by face from this story
come to think fo it, i think the way flowey behaves in neutral is also based on red from this creepypasts. making the game as disturbing and disorienting as possible, doing anything to stop the player from finishing the game, making things as unfair as possible, acknowledging the player and mocking them
dude the worldbuilding in this creepypasta is so incredible
