Cain doesn't want to hurt anybody so it's more like to make sure Cain doesn't help the survivors in any way it tricks Cain into seeing them as Abstractions that he has to quickly put away before they mess up anything
When playing cain From your pov everything is bright colors everyone is cartoony it's all censored and instead of blood it's confetti, he has built in pyro vision
Wel everyone, I can safely say we all learned a valuable lesson... In times of need, don't think rationally, just take the long and dangerous routes away from any problem with no guaranteed negative outcomes!
Honestly, if Caine became a DBD killer, he’d give the whole game a family friendly makeover whenever he’s in the match. The colors are slightly brighter. Any instances of swearing are censored. And all the gore is replaced with, while still unsettling, cartoony and glitch animations that can still pass as family friendly. The only exception being when the entity claims a hook victim.
I could honestly see the rest of the killers getting cosmetics based off TADC where they're just turned into very cartoonish and lighthearted caricatures of their original designs
"Jax, I saw you tryna escape from that hatch, but alas it was merely a digital hallucination!" *begins to viciously brutalize them with a momento mori*
I love how all of the other characters you’ve done, even those who didn’t originate from a horror series, could still work really well for something like DBD in terms of lore and character. Then you got his Goober
I mean... Mental stimulation can mean a lot of things, and with how jumpy and flinch prone kinger is we have no idea what he may have done to previous inhabitants of his circus.
@noahjohnston9958to please Caine in making the show "family friendly", all swearing is automatically censored and instead of bleeding out, the survivors slowly abstract until they get taken by the hook tentacle
6:17 I don’t know why, but I feel this part of the chase theme is when Caine gets upset, upset to the point where he just SNAPS. Then after like a few minutes he’s back to normal like literally nothing happened.
I feel like Cain'd be a mix of Pyramid Head and Pig. Imagine a killer that doesn't need to be looped or has to tunnel for a W, but instead is one big mess of RNG and 'fun' minigames. Failing a 'minigame' gives you an 'Abstracted' debuff at random. If it's a leg, you move slower. If it's an arm, you interact slower. He CANNOT outright damage you, but you can't remove abstraction either. After so many abstractions, you're able to be Mori'd, in which case he sends you into the ol' pit of abstracts where what's left of you is in sheer pain and terror as you're forcefully torn apart and assimilated into the abstract mass. And since DBD has a consistent theme of escaping, there'd be 'Exit Doors' randomly appearing, which could disorient you, teleport you, or with an extremely slim chance, let you escape the game and 'win'. All of this would be overly colorful and cartoony like he's doing his best to censor the entity itself, but every abstraction makes a painful static/screech noise that'd break the atmosphere for a second, and having multiple abstractions would infrequently break the illusion and prompt a terrifying 'chase' theme. ...Also at the end of every round if a Survivor managed to win he'd be doing a polite 'clapping' animation in the background, like a Smash character losing a game.
@@Average_PlayerFromRBXI saw a perk concept for him where 3 false hatches would open when hatch opened,and trying to go through them would reveal your location and then destroy the fake hatch
So on the "Chase!?" music Caine stop being cartoonish or drops off his artstyle and the player seeing him having a real huge mouth with eyed monster. Many of skills should be: His all seeing eyes Spawn Bubble to hunt Teleporting, zooming... Digital glitching when hurt by him.
It's shown characters in the circus kind of have cartoon physics where they can't be killed by normal means, but if you take them out of the setting and replace the characters with real people, suddenly the goofy slapstick is a lot more lethal.
Headcanon: The Mori is Abstraction, the circus is a Map and Pomni and Ragatha are survivors with the rest being legendary skins Bubble is apart of Caine's power
That'd be so cool! Maybe Bubble could temporarily trap survivors? Or maybe even seek them and point em out? (I don't play DBD so I have no clue about any balance issues)
I feel like for Cains power, we gotta lean into his cartoonishness, and omniscience, so he could place different top hats around the map that he could telaport to and from, to give him alotnof map presence, the survivors could also stop on these hats to remove them from the map, and can has a maximum of five that, like skull merchant, he can recall at will. He could also have a survivor focused ability, he can trap a survivor in chassis, in a quick DbD trivia game that lasts about, 15 or 20 seconds, and depending on how they answer they get a random positive or negative effect for 15 seconds.
*Random lore blurb, I guess* “Hey there, my newest superstars! My name is Caine, your ringmaster and your Creative Artificial Intelligence Networking Entity (that E in the name is not to be confused with that other fellow, mind you!)! A very nice stranger in the sky came to visit my circus one day, and one signature in handwriting that I can’t quite make out later, you lot had all been invited to be the new cast and crew of my amazing digital circus! Your newest adventure? Tag with Caine! “…Huh? Minds fracturing? Bodies losing their last bits of life? Me feeding a cycle of hope and fear as nourishment for an eldritch god beyond comprehension…? Naaah! C&A Incorporated only entrusts itself with the most trustworthy and benevolent of individuals!” *Hit animation* Caine whacks the survivor with his cane before wagging his finger, admonishing them for screaming so loudly at his tender and totally-not-bloodletting touch. *Mori* With the Entity looming overhead and the exit shutting to a close, the survivor collapses on their knees in a mental breakdown. Caine tries to “comfort” the victim and slaps them on the back multiple times over, stating “Don’t cry! You’ll have me and my adventures to keep you company for the next millennium!”. At his touch and at his words, the survivor loses all sanity and breaks out in a mass of darkness and pulsating eyes, turning into an Abstraction. Caine hurriedly lifts up the Abstraction with magic before plunging them into a dark hole full of dozens of other Abstractions, before closing up the hole and giving the camera a nervous shrug.
Power could be like a mix of the Doc's and Ringu's. The more a survivor goes insane through the match(through being hit, seeing Caine, having a failed skill check and just slowly over the match) they start having DiGiTaL HaLuCiNaTiOnS about items that can assist them in their escape(like fake gens, items, pallets, etc) and everytime they are interacted with either they just scream alerting Caine and making them move faster towards them OR the Entity experimenting a bit, interacts more directly(like clawing at a Survivor with sythe like limbs) to deal damage.
Caine knows he's in a game. Doesn't stop him ftom getting creepily personal and chummy with the survivors. Ghost face feels threatened that he's not the goofiest killer anymore.
I'd actually love if this was in the game because I love the idea of a character so goofy and gooberish that you don't think they'll be scary, but then you're running around the map scared because the scarier part of the character is just done so well. They could try to do this with the clown, but ew I dont like him. I'd totally be a Cain main tho
I'd love the concept of a Killer that doesn't KILL survivors but just... Bothers them? Like, Cain wouldn't really kill them, just hit them a bit and steal their bodies for the Digital Circus. That's a cool concept for a "Joke Killer", something that DBD hasn't done yet
What if he could abstract a survivor if he kills them? Turns them into a short-lived monster that the killed player can control only partially, which also chases down players before finally vanishing. Also, I'd love it if he was talkative. I want him to scream "YOU PARASITE!" Before he begins chasing swriously.
Would you believe he's only playing? Seriously, given how he is not actually evil, I think the Entity just tricked him, gave him an idea for a hide and seek style game where he would be directly involved and since no one would permanently die, he just went along with it since he didn't know it'd still hurt a lot. His mori would be something like him and Bubble strapping the survivor to a ridiculous amount of fireworks. And maybe his hooks would be replaced with bungie cords or something which would instead fling them into the portal instead. While Caine would be more a Identity V guy, it would be pretty fun to see how they'd work around his neutral naivete, and maybe in the trailer, Chucky would say something like "who the fuck is this guy?" but he would be bleeped and bonked by Caine. "No profanity here, my friend!"
He might somehow know that the survivors will be alive at the end of the game, so doesn't see the harm in mangling their bodies like that. He is an artificial intelligence after all
This could be done in such a way that it is horrifying. I'd imagine the world would look more cartoony and vibrant the closer he is (this would be scarry bevause it clashes with the gitty atmosphere that will still be there), and that he can fuck with the enviornment like adding fake doors and stuff. And when you are hanging on the hooks the world glitches back to how it should be and the monster looks much more realistic because the illusion was broken.
Honestly, with all the talking Killers I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to see Caine floating around the realm and just having no clue what’s going on and the Entity didn’t truly know either but knows they have a powerful asset if they can manipulate them right. Maybe Caine’s lore to entering the realm was that they sensed the dread and pain emanating from The Circus and plucked Caine to there just to see Caine as this plucky goober with absolutely NO clue what’s happening. But the Entity promised Caine to ‘teach’ them about how to understand humans better and Caine with no clue just goes along with it but the entity just wants to use Caine’s powers to cause the survivors more misery from an being that doesn’t even know what it’s doing is evil as they are so jovial about it. Plus the entity having fun, cause after all… it’s the circus. Map could be a dark and dreary version of the circus but if playing as Caine he sees it as the circus without any of the cast. Power(s) idea: Caine doesn’t have just one power, Ringmasters need to be jacks of all trade soooo he has three. You can pick your starting one at the start BUT to swap in a match you need to find a TV scattered around the map to swap it out(this alerts ALL survivors to where Caine is cause of a big burst of balloons, confetti and joyous music). Power 1: Phantasmagorical Pursuer. Caine gets bubble to join in on the fun as they float around the map looking for survivors. Once they spot a survivor; they will chase them saying things like ‘FOUND THEM BOSS’ or ‘OH TAG, I LOVE THIS GAME’. Once hit by Bubble, they will bite onto their leg giving the mangled status and alerting Caine Power 2: Hammerspace A meter builds up and once it’s full Caine is able to take off his top hat and rummages around inside it while grabbing random items(knives, squeaky hammers, Gangle’s comedy mask, a gloink, etc) and tossing them around at random in a general direction. This acts like a slower and easier to dodge trickster’s knife barrage but hits like huntress’s hatchets. Power 3: Digital Hallucinations Talking to some chummy doctor fellow in the realm gave Caine some ideas on making the ‘game’ the weird spider thing wants to play more fun. Caine can set up fake generators, chests and pallets in random areas where they would normally spawn, these when used make the survivor that interacted with them make a notification for whatever duration that the hallucination is being used(I.E. full time of looking in a fake chest or repairing a fake gen) Due to the TV’s and Caine’s power there would be FIVE optional moris. First Mori: The knife board(needs full Hammerspace meter), A nod to the trailer where Caine will teleport the Survivor onto a board where it will start to rapidly spin and Caine tosses a barrage of random killer weapons at it(huntress hatchets, blight’s staff, singularity’s metal fragments, knives, and even a chunk of dredge) and they all stab into the board and survivor making a image of a member of the circus as Caine says ‘Oops, learned something new today’ Mori 2: Gloink Glitch(power is on bubble), Caine calls for bubble out of his top hat but a gaggle of Gloinks jump out and assault the survivor and rips them piece by piece before trying to hop back into the circus through Caine’s top hat still open but the entity makes a small portal that takes the remains and the gloinks. Mori 3: Digital Dangers(power on Hallucinations), Caine sets up a ‘goofy obstacle corse’ with the help of the entity for the survivor that contains tons of lethal traps, the survivor doesn’t make it far before what Caine sees as a cartoon grabby claw takes the survivor but it is a man catcher like claw dragging them into a meat grinder Mori 4: A New Cast Member! When Caine is near a TV, he starts his final Mori but notices a nearby headset and SLAMS it on the survivors head. He thinks it’ll work and Caine flys off for a bit and the entity corrupts the headset making the survivors head smoke until it physically BURSTS and then Caine flys back after and comments on how ‘Huh, humans REALLY like their jams’ Last Mori: THE SHOW STOPPER If none of the other requirements are met, Caine starts the Showstopper Mori. Caine takes out a comically small cage and sets it down as it surrounds both Caine AND the survivor(any nearby survivors would be pushed to the sides). Then Caine opens a small hole in the ground and accidentally summons an Abstraction, then as the Abstraction rips and corrupts the survivor; Caine has a tiny chair and acting like a cowardly lion tamer before the survivor gets corrupted and then the entity opens a hole bringing down the abstraction and the destroyed mess of the survivor into it as Caine reshrinks the cage and places it back. Maybe even the cosmetics for survivors could be TADC versions of themselves in a cartoony and weird way. Like Dwight in a clown outfit that looks like Caufmo for example
Starting chase: "Now now, dear, can't have you wandering off on your own!" "Oh, well there you are! Where have you been?" "HUMAN, WAIT!" Downing survivor: "Just sit tight now!" "This probably shouldnt hurt a bit!" Hooking survivor: "Dont worry, my dear! You won't even die horribly!" Getting stunned: "YOU PARASITE!" Watching survivor escape: "Well done, my little superstar!" "I dont recall putting this exit here..."
The Killers: where'd you get this weirdo?! The Entity: honestly, I have no idea. I was trying to get SHODAN and GLaDoS to join us, and then he showed up.
Ideas quotes after Perks descriptions "Caine, Is this one of your NPC's or is this a new sucker? Because if it's a new character, then we're gonna have to redo this whole theme song." - Jax “Whatever you say kid.” - Jax “Ok, I had enough of these things!” - Jax
Hex: Just a game. At the start of the trial, this perk activates and makes a totem become lit. When this totem is about 3/2/1 sec to be cleansed, this hex will move to another totem. When a totem is moved, it has a cooldown of 80/60/40 sec until he can move again. As long as this totem is still up, other totems cannot be cleansed no matter their state. "Ok, I had enough of these things!" - Jax Your idea gave me an actual perk idea lmao
Perk: Take it from the top! “You know well that new additions to the cast require do overs on most things no matter how well developed they are.” Whenever you eliminate a survivor this perk becomes active. Next time you kick a generator it instantly regresses by 50/75/100%. This perk then deactivates and can only activate again when another survivor is eliminated. This perk does not stack. You can only kick generators when this perk is active. “Caine, is this one of your NPCs or a new sucker? Because if it’s a new character, we’re gonna have to redo this whole theme song!” - Jax Never made a perk before. What do you think?
I feel like this would be an amazing April Fools update if they did ever do this. Remove all the horror elements and killers and replace all that gritty, dreadful atmosphere for the bright, colorful low polygon environment of the digtal circus while being hounded by Cain LMAO
This would be a very friendly form of Dead By Daylight, such a nice tune! It greatly captures the cartoony tune during the chase, and the end bit was a nice touch from the actual Amazing Digital Circus of an Abstracted Chase. Really loved it!
Imagine that The hooks and everything is replaced with something more cartoony and age appropiate like waiting chairs strapped to rockets like in identity v or a moment morí that involved flattening The survivor like a pancake with a comically large mallet with them still surviving
POWER: *JUST A FAÇADE* At the start of the trial, The Ringmaster will let out a map-wide voiceline, alerting the survivors who the Killer is. SPECIAL ITEM: VR Headsets Special Chests will appear on the trial, each of the containing a VR Headset. A survivor can open these chests and has the ability to pick up the VR Headset. When a survivor has a VR Headset, they have the ability to put it on. When a survivor puts on a headset, they will enter The Digital World. Survivors in the Real World suffer from the following effects: •Hindered Status Effect •Unability to see or interact with Generators. •Unability to cleanse totems. •The Ringmaster becomes 90% invisible every 6 seconds •All survivors will enter The Digital World by force after 90 seconds. (Add-ons can speed this up) SPECIAL ATTACK: *LITTLE WEAKLING* When a survivor is in The Real World, The Ringmaster cannot attack them normally. Whenever The Ringmaster attacks a survivor in The Real World, this attack counts as a special one, in order to take a survivor in The Real World’s healthstate, The Ringmaster must attack them three times. When a survivor is attacked with Little Weakling, they gain no injured speed boost, and The Ringmaster’s attack cooldown is 25% faster. SPECIAL REALM: *THE DIGITAL WORLD* In The Digital World, both the realm and the survivors gain a cartoonish aspect. The survivors can exit The Digital World whenever they find an Exit Door. An Exit Door takes 10 seconds to be opened by a survivor. SPECIAL ABILITY: *NOBODY LEAVES WITHOUT A GIFT* When a survivor is opening an Exit Door, they are highlighted by Killer Instict, The Ringmaster also has the ability to teleport to them. SPECIAL ABILITY: *BUBBLE* Bubble will patrol The Digital World. When a survivor is within 15 meters of Bubble, they will be highlighted with Killer Instinct. The Ringmaster also has the ability to control Bubble. SPECIAL ATTACK: *BUBBLE POP* When The Ringmaster is controlling Bubble, Bubble can run into a survivor, popping Bubble and getting rid of a Survivor’s healthstate. Bubble takes 30 seconds to respawn and be controllable again. SPECIAL ATTACK: *STAFF THROW* The Ringmaster is able to aim his staff and throw it, getting rid of a survivor’s healthstate. After throwing your staff, whether you hit a survivor or not, The Ringmaster has to manually pick his staff back up. The Ringmaster is also able to see where his dropped staff is with Aura Reading. SPECIAL ABILITY: *THE VOID* Whenever the Obsession is downed in The Digital World, The Ringmaster has the ability to send them to the void, survivors in The Void die 10% faster, and can be rescued by exiting The Digital World and waking up their physical body. Nobody Leaves Without A Gift is unable to be used while a survivor is in The Void. Let me know if you want me to make the perks or the add-ons!
I have a perk idea: Fake Exits Spawns 1/2/3 fake hatches that are opened when normal hatches are. Survivors interacting with fake hatches scream and have their aura revealed for 5 seconds. The fake hatch then dissipates.
it could be like the pyro situation from tf2 but instead of goggles it's just the entity tricking cain and through his vision everything is silly and goofy and cartoonish survivors giggling or laughing when hit but in the survivors eyes it's vastly different the end chase works very well for this case bc in cains side he hears the cartoony chase theme but the survivors hear the "CHASE!?" part while getting chased and what they see is horrific when they turn around before running and on cains end he's skipping or hopping to them but on the survivors end he's menacingly walking to them his head tilted slightly down so his eyes are partially covered by his teeth his arms limp and sway with his walk
Perks: Digital Hallucinations: Gain a token for every ten seconds you are in a chase, up to 3/4/5. When a survivor attempts to use an aura reading perk, additional, incorrect auras will also appear in different locations for 10 seconds. Once all of the generators have been powered, the amount of time you need to be in chase to gain a token is increased to 15 seconds. Tag!: If a survivor remains within a 90/105/120 degree cone behind you within 10 meters for 7 seconds, you will get killer instinct on them. If you stop moving for 1 second, the timer resets. It’s Not Ready Yet!: If a survivor is in your terror radius while attempting to open the exit gates, the switch will become blocked for 20/30/40 seconds. This can only be triggered by each survivor once a match.
imagine that last perk with no way out 60 second exit gate block, you wait it out, and then you get ambushed which adds an additional 40 seconds jesus christ that's long
@@commanderdemonno9819 maybe the time needs to be adjusted, but there’s a reason I put the caveat of it needing to have a survivor actively opening the gates.
I love how goofy this sounds, and the end tho. God that ending part actually freaked me out a lot, like that came out of nowhere. Edit: also I love how at the very end we get Cain questioning who the hell the entity is and what DBD is as well. Honestly very nice detail there lol.
The Amazing Digital Circus (and especially Cain) is such an awesome choice for a DBD crossover because of how hilariously unfitting it would be. That's why this idea is perfect. I want to hear this goofy Ahh chase music in game.
Caine's mori would be forcing you to put on the headset. After it's on, the survivor tries to pry it off and glitches out of existence. At the end, Caine does a little wave and says "See you at the circus!"
This gave me whiplash seeing it on my recommended page but I am SO very curious to see where this goes Edit: Just like before, listening to this gave me whiplash in the best way possible, damn good stuff
hearing this song and the terrifying bit at the end is making me think of an idea on how caine would act, how he'd play & work, and maybe once all the generators are done he gets replaced or a abstracted monsters pops out from a hole becoming a 2nd killer for the survivors to deal with.
I Can Imagine a perk and some stuff Caine would have in DBD Perk: *Exit Fixation* When the Last Generator is repaired, Both Exit Gates Are Blocked For *120* Seconds. Perk: *No Foul Language!* When a survivor is injured, Survivors groans of pain are 2X Louder. Every 30 seconds, the injured survivor will make a loud censored noise, alerting the killer to your location. Voiceline after hanging a survivor: “You Look Like You’ve Seen A Ghost!”
Chapter: THE AMAZING DIGITAL TRIAL Killer: The Ringmaster - Caine Special Ability: Digital Hallucinations. Survivors: Pomni, Ragatha and Jax Map: The Digital Circus
Oh now this is fantastic I never played DBD, but i can imagine Cain's mechanic involving all the survivors having an "Insanity" meter that increases whenever Cain is in range, causing that survivor to get abstracted. Once you're fully abstracted only then can Cain catch you, until then he's just a lesser threat compared to other killers. Maybe while you're abstracted, you get various debuffs so there's more of a fear factor and tension added to becoming abstracted.
I feel like this could work with the part of the chase around 6:17, and when you are abstracted, the music Caine has become distorted and actually kinda scary
This would be great inspiration for the DBD crew to get from for a toy or video game come to live character for their theme. It's got that slowly rising silliness to it and chaos. Maybe a slight more splash of typical horror themes to finish it - only slight for the chase / near parts -
Yet another time where I think “god this would actually go so hard.” I saw a lot of people suggesting this one on other videos, and I’m really impressed with how it turned out! Compared to your other silly-style killers, I was pleasantly surprised to see this one lean less into the horror, almost making it more scary? There are so many layers to this song- the distorted birdsong, the crunchy music notes calling back to analog technology, and then the goofy sound effects chase theme, followed by a more played straight horror chase theme. The way you used that horn sound effect is CRAZY dude. Feels like I’m only more impressed with each and every upload. Cheers to all your hard work Dandy!
Some idea for Caine lines from every TADC media I can think of off the top of my head. (I don't know any of the other special characters so there will be no interactions with them that I can think of): [Match starts] "I assure you. There is no 'Magical exit door'. Your simply experiencing DIGITAL HALLUCINATIONS." "Today's show has QUITE the performance!" "Get ready for the song everybody!" "We'll have a wild ride!" [Survivor gets off hook] "oop- Looks like one of these guys made it through!" "YOU PARASITE!!!" [Survivor get's hooked] "There you go!" "Don't you worry your little head!" "Just remember friend, People die when they are killed!" "Welcome back my little hard-shelled hamburger!" [Survivor escapes] "...Well, I'm sure we both could learn a thing from THAT experience." [A single Survivor escapes] "Oh no- People are venturing out into the void! They'll get completely spoiled!!!" "TIME TO PANIC." [Caine wins a match] "WELP. I'm gonna go drink Water! It's been a while since I've done that!" "Well it seems our new friend's already abstracted." [Survivor uses the trapdoor] "And into the cellar you go!" [Survivor gets downed] "HAHAHAHAHA" "Oh- There you are!" [Caine misses Survivor] "WHOOPS! Wrong thinga-ma-giga-ma!" "Welp. My new updates bugged." [Survivors win] "I.... do have to apologize for about the exit."
New Killer: The Ringmaster Caine has no idea what he’s doing, and all he wants to do is give Survivors a new adventure. His personal perks, All-Seeing Eyes, Abstraction, and Digital Memory allow him to efficiently monitor Survivors while attacking from the dark.
0:00 Very nice! If I had to guess, did you take inspiration from the original theme? 1:50 **Insert Sans dialogue before the start of his attack.** 2:34 Okay, now this is getting a little weird. 4:28 This is not okie dokie. 5:14 You'll never take me alive! 6:17 *OH SHIT HE ABSTRACTED-*
In my head i imagine him in the chase that he would just do a silly, exciting, dance while quickly but silently floating towards you cuz it fits the chase theme a bit better.
This was quite the surprise, I can already imagine Cain being an April Fools character, also I do like the cameo of the bubble in the background And since we are in the topic of Glitch Productions, I wonder why if you'll do a Murder Drones character someday, I can imagine being J or whatever she's named (the murder drone with the ponytails), or that russian speaking robot girl Also also, since you did a Lobby Theme based on Caine, I wonder if you'll do future lobby themes for the previous killers and new ones
I find crazy to think Caine in these scary and deadly environments, as he is thinking that it's a scrapped adventure he made. So he has to rangle survivor back to the cirus. It makes me laugh to think about it😂
I’m just imagining when Caine gets close he just starts acting and moving all crazy, terrifying to the person he is chasing, but just a goofy adventure for him
of all characters to put in DbD... this is simultaneously the most fitting and yet the most unfitting character. i love this idea also don't think i don't notice that mario 64 reference in the art there lol
The chirps in the distant theme sound so familiar, yet strange . I mean this in the best way I can, but it’s like a Generative AI was told to recreate the chirping bird ambience from Sm64. Very fitting, considering the character.
I find it fascinating how much mileage you can get from cartoon sound effects for a horror chase theme. I also love how the chase theme has 2 versions where one sounds like actual cartoon music and the other sounds like...well corrupted audio noise
The interesting about this is how 'extra' the DBD motif feels. Its supposed to be 4 notes, yet it leads into a piece of an ending chorus, and elsewhere.
"Oh quit whining! you didn't need that shoulder anyway!"
HELP THIS FITS HIM SO WELL
The distant OST sounds like bubble orbiting around Caine, very fast with little particles. (The pattern is, [First. the wind. Then the noise.])

I love how all of the other characters you’ve done, even those who didn’t originate from a horror series, could still work really well for something like DBD in terms of lore and character.
Then you got his Goober
I mean... Mental stimulation can mean a lot of things, and with how jumpy and flinch prone kinger is we have no idea what he may have done to previous inhabitants of his circus.

Apparently that's a TH-cam channel now
That tracks. XD
Everytime he snorts a suitcase full of coke he immediately goes into DBD to mess with everyone
This feels like something gooseworx would do. Just randomly making a deal with Dbd and adding Cain to the game, then going back to doing what they do.
@noahjohnston9958to please Caine in making the show "family friendly", all swearing is automatically censored and instead of bleeding out, the survivors slowly abstract until they get taken by the hook tentacle
Gooseworx, please. I would never play this game otherwise. XD
Jesus, if this happened, imagine N or one of the other murder drones
6:17 I don’t know why, but I feel this part of the chase theme is when Caine gets upset, upset to the point where he just SNAPS. Then after like a few minutes he’s back to normal like literally nothing happened.
I see it happening when he gets a bloodlust boost
Caine when he spots a virus
Caine when he becomes into a suicidal maniac
YOU *PARASITE!!!*
Anyway! 😊
"If I forget who is human and who's not... I might not know.... what could happen"
My favorite thing about this is how you acknowledge that amazing digital circus is actually pretty dark but is disguised as a goofy kids show
I feel like Cain'd be a mix of Pyramid Head and Pig.
Imagine a killer that doesn't need to be looped or has to tunnel for a W, but instead is one big mess of RNG and 'fun' minigames.
Failing a 'minigame' gives you an 'Abstracted' debuff at random. If it's a leg, you move slower. If it's an arm, you interact slower. He CANNOT outright damage you, but you can't remove abstraction either.
After so many abstractions, you're able to be Mori'd, in which case he sends you into the ol' pit of abstracts where what's left of you is in sheer pain and terror as you're forcefully torn apart and assimilated into the abstract mass.
And since DBD has a consistent theme of escaping, there'd be 'Exit Doors' randomly appearing, which could disorient you, teleport you, or with an extremely slim chance, let you escape the game and 'win'.
All of this would be overly colorful and cartoony like he's doing his best to censor the entity itself, but every abstraction makes a painful static/screech noise that'd break the atmosphere for a second, and having multiple abstractions would infrequently break the illusion and prompt a terrifying 'chase' theme.
...Also at the end of every round if a Survivor managed to win he'd be doing a polite 'clapping' animation in the background, like a Smash character losing a game.
Heck yeah!!
no it'd be it's own gamemode where 5 players queue and one player is chosen to be caine
Power: DIGITAL HALLUCINATIONS
My guess that using this ability you will be able to place down fake generators or exits that stun the survivor once interacted
@@Average_PlayerFromRBXI saw a perk concept for him where 3 false hatches would open when hatch opened,and trying to go through them would reveal your location and then destroy the fake hatch
So on the "Chase!?" music Caine stop being cartoonish or drops off his artstyle and the player seeing him having a real huge mouth with eyed monster.
Many of skills should be:
His all seeing eyes
Spawn Bubble to hunt
Teleporting, zooming...
Digital glitching when hurt by him.
@@Average_PlayerFromRBXI WAS LITERALLY GONNA SAY THAT
Adding Caine into Dead by Daylight would just result in him chasing you with a Rubber Mallet, sure it would hurt, but he's no threat
It's shown characters in the circus kind of have cartoon physics where they can't be killed by normal means, but if you take them out of the setting and replace the characters with real people, suddenly the goofy slapstick is a lot more lethal.

Headcanon: The Mori is Abstraction, the circus is a Map and Pomni and Ragatha are survivors with the rest being legendary skins Bubble is apart of Caine's power
That'd be so cool! Maybe Bubble could temporarily trap survivors? Or maybe even seek them and point em out? (I don't play DBD so I have no clue about any balance issues)
Lore maybe: he just comes to the entity’s real to blow off some steam
@@GuitarOfTime0116 i was thinking Bubble would basically be a cross between the Knight's Guards and Victor
@@bobzilla0585”man, I need a break. Hopefully Jax will be able to manage the circus while I’m away!”
I feel like for Cains power, we gotta lean into his cartoonishness, and omniscience, so he could place different top hats around the map that he could telaport to and from, to give him alotnof map presence, the survivors could also stop on these hats to remove them from the map, and can has a maximum of five that, like skull merchant, he can recall at will. He could also have a survivor focused ability, he can trap a survivor in chassis, in a quick DbD trivia game that lasts about, 15 or 20 seconds, and depending on how they answer they get a random positive or negative effect for 15 seconds.
“You never had that arm all along, just another digital hallucination!”
Caine’s point and click adventure.
Caine being a killer would be hilarious and terrifying
*Random lore blurb, I guess*
“Hey there, my newest superstars! My name is Caine, your ringmaster and your Creative Artificial Intelligence Networking Entity (that E in the name is not to be confused with that other fellow, mind you!)! A very nice stranger in the sky came to visit my circus one day, and one signature in handwriting that I can’t quite make out later, you lot had all been invited to be the new cast and crew of my amazing digital circus! Your newest adventure? Tag with Caine!
“…Huh? Minds fracturing? Bodies losing their last bits of life? Me feeding a cycle of hope and fear as nourishment for an eldritch god beyond comprehension…? Naaah! C&A Incorporated only entrusts itself with the most trustworthy and benevolent of individuals!”
*Hit animation*
Caine whacks the survivor with his cane before wagging his finger, admonishing them for screaming so loudly at his tender and totally-not-bloodletting touch.
*Mori*
With the Entity looming overhead and the exit shutting to a close, the survivor collapses on their knees in a mental breakdown. Caine tries to “comfort” the victim and slaps them on the back multiple times over, stating “Don’t cry! You’ll have me and my adventures to keep you company for the next millennium!”. At his touch and at his words, the survivor loses all sanity and breaks out in a mass of darkness and pulsating eyes, turning into an Abstraction. Caine hurriedly lifts up the Abstraction with magic before plunging them into a dark hole full of dozens of other Abstractions, before closing up the hole and giving the camera a nervous shrug.
I love the idea of Caine driving the survivors insane throughout the whole match, and at the mori they just lose it. The doctor should take notes.
Amazing Mori concept
The fact this is is something I can imagine Caine doing, and then pissing off the Entity and all the Killers.
what happened to the old cast and crew?
Power could be like a mix of the Doc's and Ringu's. The more a survivor goes insane through the match(through being hit, seeing Caine, having a failed skill check and just slowly over the match) they start having DiGiTaL HaLuCiNaTiOnS about items that can assist them in their escape(like fake gens, items, pallets, etc) and everytime they are interacted with either they just scream alerting Caine and making them move faster towards them OR the Entity experimenting a bit, interacts more directly(like clawing at a Survivor with sythe like limbs) to deal damage.
Caine knows he's in a game. Doesn't stop him ftom getting creepily personal and chummy with the survivors.
Ghost face feels threatened that he's not the goofiest killer anymore.
I love the idea of all the funky, upbeat music playing. Until Caine hits a survivor, then the *true* theme starts
I'd actually love if this was in the game because I love the idea of a character so goofy and gooberish that you don't think they'll be scary, but then you're running around the map scared because the scarier part of the character is just done so well. They could try to do this with the clown, but ew I dont like him. I'd totally be a Cain main tho
I'd love the concept of a Killer that doesn't KILL survivors but just... Bothers them? Like, Cain wouldn't really kill them, just hit them a bit and steal their bodies for the Digital Circus. That's a cool concept for a "Joke Killer", something that DBD hasn't done yet
What if he could abstract a survivor if he kills them? Turns them into a short-lived monster that the killed player can control only partially, which also chases down players before finally vanishing.
Also, I'd love it if he was talkative. I want him to scream "YOU PARASITE!" Before he begins chasing swriously.
He'd probably say that when he's stunned or blinded
a tricky the clown chase music would go unbelievably hard
OH MY GOD YES PLEASE THAT WOULD BE SO COOL 🙏
Finally! A person speaking facts!
I imagine his chase theme being a remix of Clown Song of Death
True!!
Dogma from tboi whould also go insanely hard
Would you believe he's only playing?
Seriously, given how he is not actually evil, I think the Entity just tricked him, gave him an idea for a hide and seek style game where he would be directly involved and since no one would permanently die, he just went along with it since he didn't know it'd still hurt a lot. His mori would be something like him and Bubble strapping the survivor to a ridiculous amount of fireworks. And maybe his hooks would be replaced with bungie cords or something which would instead fling them into the portal instead. While Caine would be more a Identity V guy, it would be pretty fun to see how they'd work around his neutral naivete, and maybe in the trailer, Chucky would say something like "who the fuck is this guy?" but he would be bleeped and bonked by Caine. "No profanity here, my friend!"
He might somehow know that the survivors will be alive at the end of the game, so doesn't see the harm in mangling their bodies like that. He is an artificial intelligence after all
This could be done in such a way that it is horrifying. I'd imagine the world would look more cartoony and vibrant the closer he is (this would be scarry bevause it clashes with the gitty atmosphere that will still be there), and that he can fuck with the enviornment like adding fake doors and stuff. And when you are hanging on the hooks the world glitches back to how it should be and the monster looks much more realistic because the illusion was broken.
He shows you the terror of being noclipped in the Cthulhu days.
The Ringmaster is that an *DARKEST DUNGEON* REFERENCE
Honestly, with all the talking Killers I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to see Caine floating around the realm and just having no clue what’s going on and the Entity didn’t truly know either but knows they have a powerful asset if they can manipulate them right.
Maybe Caine’s lore to entering the realm was that they sensed the dread and pain emanating from The Circus and plucked Caine to there just to see Caine as this plucky goober with absolutely NO clue what’s happening. But the Entity promised Caine to ‘teach’ them about how to understand humans better and Caine with no clue just goes along with it but the entity just wants to use Caine’s powers to cause the survivors more misery from an being that doesn’t even know what it’s doing is evil as they are so jovial about it. Plus the entity having fun, cause after all… it’s the circus.
Map could be a dark and dreary version of the circus but if playing as Caine he sees it as the circus without any of the cast.
Power(s) idea: Caine doesn’t have just one power, Ringmasters need to be jacks of all trade soooo he has three. You can pick your starting one at the start BUT to swap in a match you need to find a TV scattered around the map to swap it out(this alerts ALL survivors to where Caine is cause of a big burst of balloons, confetti and joyous music).
Power 1: Phantasmagorical Pursuer.
Caine gets bubble to join in on the fun as they float around the map looking for survivors. Once they spot a survivor; they will chase them saying things like ‘FOUND THEM BOSS’ or ‘OH TAG, I LOVE THIS GAME’. Once hit by Bubble, they will bite onto their leg giving the mangled status and alerting Caine
Power 2: Hammerspace
A meter builds up and once it’s full Caine is able to take off his top hat and rummages around inside it while grabbing random items(knives, squeaky hammers, Gangle’s comedy mask, a gloink, etc) and tossing them around at random in a general direction. This acts like a slower and easier to dodge trickster’s knife barrage but hits like huntress’s hatchets.
Power 3: Digital Hallucinations
Talking to some chummy doctor fellow in the realm gave Caine some ideas on making the ‘game’ the weird spider thing wants to play more fun. Caine can set up fake generators, chests and pallets in random areas where they would normally spawn, these when used make the survivor that interacted with them make a notification for whatever duration that the hallucination is being used(I.E. full time of looking in a fake chest or repairing a fake gen)
Due to the TV’s and Caine’s power there would be FIVE optional moris.
First Mori: The knife board(needs full Hammerspace meter),
A nod to the trailer where Caine will teleport the Survivor onto a board where it will start to rapidly spin and Caine tosses a barrage of random killer weapons at it(huntress hatchets, blight’s staff, singularity’s metal fragments, knives, and even a chunk of dredge) and they all stab into the board and survivor making a image of a member of the circus as Caine says ‘Oops, learned something new today’
Mori 2: Gloink Glitch(power is on bubble),
Caine calls for bubble out of his top hat but a gaggle of Gloinks jump out and assault the survivor and rips them piece by piece before trying to hop back into the circus through Caine’s top hat still open but the entity makes a small portal that takes the remains and the gloinks.
Mori 3: Digital Dangers(power on Hallucinations),
Caine sets up a ‘goofy obstacle corse’ with the help of the entity for the survivor that contains tons of lethal traps, the survivor doesn’t make it far before what Caine sees as a cartoon grabby claw takes the survivor but it is a man catcher like claw dragging them into a meat grinder
Mori 4: A New Cast Member!
When Caine is near a TV, he starts his final Mori but notices a nearby headset and SLAMS it on the survivors head. He thinks it’ll work and Caine flys off for a bit and the entity corrupts the headset making the survivors head smoke until it physically BURSTS and then Caine flys back after and comments on how ‘Huh, humans REALLY like their jams’
Last Mori: THE SHOW STOPPER
If none of the other requirements are met, Caine starts the Showstopper Mori. Caine takes out a comically small cage and sets it down as it surrounds both Caine AND the survivor(any nearby survivors would be pushed to the sides). Then Caine opens a small hole in the ground and accidentally summons an Abstraction, then as the Abstraction rips and corrupts the survivor; Caine has a tiny chair and acting like a cowardly lion tamer before the survivor gets corrupted and then the entity opens a hole bringing down the abstraction and the destroyed mess of the survivor into it as Caine reshrinks the cage and places it back.
Maybe even the cosmetics for survivors could be TADC versions of themselves in a cartoony and weird way. Like Dwight in a clown outfit that looks like Caufmo for example
Starting chase:
"Now now, dear, can't have you wandering off on your own!"
"Oh, well there you are! Where have you been?"
"HUMAN, WAIT!"
Downing survivor:
"Just sit tight now!"
"This probably shouldnt hurt a bit!"
Hooking survivor:
"Dont worry, my dear! You won't even die horribly!"
Getting stunned:
"YOU PARASITE!"
Watching survivor escape:
"Well done, my little superstar!"
"I dont recall putting this exit here..."
to be fair “YOU PARASITE” is also usually my reaction when i get pallet stunned
This should be an April fools update, but he should definently stay.
Well, it's possible.

As long as this totem is still up, other totems cannot be cleansed no matter their state.

Perk: Take it from the top!
“You know well that new additions to the cast require do overs on most things no matter how well developed they are.”
Whenever you eliminate a survivor this perk becomes active. Next time you kick a generator it instantly regresses by 50/75/100%. This perk then deactivates and can only activate again when another survivor is eliminated. This perk does not stack. You can only kick generators when this perk is active.
“Caine, is this one of your NPCs or a new sucker? Because if it’s a new character, we’re gonna have to redo this whole theme song!” - Jax

@@Radicusmax_New_Art_Cult_Member personally I think it gives the player a bit too much power but i think thats just me
I feel like this would be an amazing April Fools update if they did ever do this. Remove all the horror elements and killers and replace all that gritty, dreadful atmosphere for the bright, colorful low polygon environment of the digtal circus while being hounded by Cain LMAO
This belongs in the prop hunt clone version of dead by daylight, the music just matches the wacky concept
This would be a very friendly form of Dead By Daylight, such a nice tune! It greatly captures the cartoony tune during the chase, and the end bit was a nice touch from the actual Amazing Digital Circus of an Abstracted Chase. Really loved it!
Imagine that The hooks and everything is replaced with something more cartoony and age appropiate like waiting chairs strapped to rockets like in identity v or a moment morí that involved flattening The survivor like a pancake with a comically large mallet with them still surviving
POWER:
*JUST A FAÇADE*
At the start of the trial, The Ringmaster will let out a map-wide voiceline, alerting the survivors who the Killer is.
SPECIAL ITEM: VR Headsets
Special Chests will appear on the trial, each of the containing a VR Headset.
A survivor can open these chests and has the ability to pick up the VR Headset. When a survivor has a VR Headset, they have the ability to put it on. When a survivor puts on a headset, they will enter The Digital World.
Survivors in the Real World suffer from the following effects:
•Hindered Status Effect
•Unability to see or interact with Generators.
•Unability to cleanse totems.
•The Ringmaster becomes 90% invisible every 6 seconds
•All survivors will enter The Digital World by force after 90 seconds. (Add-ons can speed this up)
SPECIAL ATTACK: *LITTLE WEAKLING*
When a survivor is in The Real World, The Ringmaster cannot attack them normally. Whenever The Ringmaster attacks a survivor in The Real World, this attack counts as a special one, in order to take a survivor in The Real World’s healthstate, The Ringmaster must attack them three times.
When a survivor is attacked with Little Weakling, they gain no injured speed boost, and The Ringmaster’s attack cooldown is 25% faster.
SPECIAL REALM: *THE DIGITAL WORLD*
In The Digital World, both the realm and the survivors gain a cartoonish aspect.
The survivors can exit The Digital World whenever they find an Exit Door. An Exit Door takes 10 seconds to be opened by a survivor.
SPECIAL ABILITY: *NOBODY LEAVES WITHOUT A GIFT*
When a survivor is opening an Exit Door, they are highlighted by Killer Instict, The Ringmaster also has the ability to teleport to them.
SPECIAL ABILITY: *BUBBLE*
Bubble will patrol The Digital World.
When a survivor is within 15 meters of Bubble, they will be highlighted with Killer Instinct.
The Ringmaster also has the ability to control Bubble.
SPECIAL ATTACK: *BUBBLE POP*
When The Ringmaster is controlling Bubble, Bubble can run into a survivor, popping Bubble and getting rid of a Survivor’s healthstate.
Bubble takes 30 seconds to respawn and be controllable again.
SPECIAL ATTACK: *STAFF THROW*
The Ringmaster is able to aim his staff and throw it, getting rid of a survivor’s healthstate. After throwing your staff, whether you hit a survivor or not, The Ringmaster has to manually pick his staff back up. The Ringmaster is also able to see where his dropped staff is with Aura Reading.
SPECIAL ABILITY: *THE VOID*
Whenever the Obsession is downed in The Digital World, The Ringmaster has the ability to send them to the void, survivors in The Void die 10% faster, and can be rescued by exiting The Digital World and waking up their physical body.
Nobody Leaves Without A Gift is unable to be used while a survivor is in The Void.
Let me know if you want me to make the perks or the add-ons!
10 of 10
I have a perk idea:
Fake Exits
Spawns 1/2/3 fake hatches that are opened when normal hatches are. Survivors interacting with fake hatches scream and have their aura revealed for 5 seconds. The fake hatch then dissipates.
I’d imagine that most animations are normal, but fail/getting hit animations would be cartoonified.
how would 2v8 work with caine and freddy sending you to digital worlds?
it could be like the pyro situation from tf2 but instead of goggles it's just the entity tricking cain and through his vision everything is silly and goofy and cartoonish survivors giggling or laughing when hit but in the survivors eyes it's vastly different the end chase works very well for this case bc in cains side he hears the cartoony chase theme but the survivors hear the "CHASE!?" part while getting chased and what they see is horrific when they turn around before running and on cains end he's skipping or hopping to them but on the survivors end he's menacingly walking to them his head tilted slightly down so his eyes are partially covered by his teeth his arms limp and sway with his walk
Yoooooo YES!! That works so well!!
I can already see that people in discord scream at mic when they hear all that cartons sounds-"It's Cain!!!" while playing in party as survs)))
Perks:
Digital Hallucinations: Gain a token for every ten seconds you are in a chase, up to 3/4/5. When a survivor attempts to use an aura reading perk, additional, incorrect auras will also appear in different locations for 10 seconds. Once all of the generators have been powered, the amount of time you need to be in chase to gain a token is increased to 15 seconds.
Tag!: If a survivor remains within a 90/105/120 degree cone behind you within 10 meters for 7 seconds, you will get killer instinct on them. If you stop moving for 1 second, the timer resets.
It’s Not Ready Yet!: If a survivor is in your terror radius while attempting to open the exit gates, the switch will become blocked for 20/30/40 seconds. This can only be triggered by each survivor once a match.
imagine that last perk with no way out
60 second exit gate block, you wait it out, and then you get ambushed which adds an additional 40 seconds
jesus christ that's long
@@commanderdemonno9819 maybe the time needs to be adjusted, but there’s a reason I put the caveat of it needing to have a survivor actively opening the gates.
BLOOD WARDEN
the Near theme I think was the best mix of goofy and unsettling. And ooop that final part!
4:30 sounds like normal Pikmin music haha
or animal crossing music but DEFINITELY pikmin music lol
I love how goofy this sounds, and the end tho. God that ending part actually freaked me out a lot, like that came out of nowhere.
Edit: also I love how at the very end we get Cain questioning who the hell the entity is and what DBD is as well. Honestly very nice detail there lol.
The Amazing Digital Circus (and especially Cain) is such an awesome choice for a DBD crossover because of how hilariously unfitting it would be. That's why this idea is perfect. I want to hear this goofy Ahh chase music in game.
i can't find the comment anymore but the guy asking for a tricky song had a banger idea
It's 2 comments above you
Caine's mori would be forcing you to put on the headset. After it's on, the survivor tries to pry it off and glitches out of existence. At the end, Caine does a little wave and says "See you at the circus!"
That’s more terrifying than actually getting slaughtered.
Cain: POMI! I GOING TO END YOU!
Pomi: What...
Cain: *perform his memento mori on Pomi*
welp, to the fragmented room it goes!
This gave me whiplash seeing it on my recommended page but I am SO very curious to see where this goes
Edit: Just like before, listening to this gave me whiplash in the best way possible, damn good stuff
hearing this song and the terrifying bit at the end is making me think of an idea on how caine would act, how he'd play & work, and maybe once all the generators are done he gets replaced or a abstracted monsters pops out from a hole becoming a 2nd killer for the survivors to deal with.
I Can Imagine a perk and some stuff Caine would have in DBD
Perk: *Exit Fixation*
When the Last Generator is repaired, Both Exit Gates Are Blocked For *120* Seconds.
Perk: *No Foul Language!*
When a survivor is injured, Survivors groans of pain are 2X Louder. Every 30 seconds, the injured survivor will make a loud censored noise, alerting the killer to your location.
Voiceline after hanging a survivor: “You Look Like You’ve Seen A Ghost!”
Chapter: THE AMAZING DIGITAL TRIAL
Killer: The Ringmaster - Caine
Special Ability: Digital Hallucinations.
Survivors: Pomni, Ragatha and Jax
Map: The Digital Circus
I feel like this can work if the entity has managed to tamper with Caine and make him think or see the the survivors as abstractions
the Approaching theme reminds me of Creepy Castle Basement in DK64
I can't believe we got a Mori animation in the new episode
He decides it’s point and click adventure time.
Oh now this is fantastic
I never played DBD, but i can imagine Cain's mechanic involving all the survivors having an "Insanity" meter that increases whenever Cain is in range, causing that survivor to get abstracted. Once you're fully abstracted only then can Cain catch you, until then he's just a lesser threat compared to other killers. Maybe while you're abstracted, you get various debuffs so there's more of a fear factor and tension added to becoming abstracted.
I feel like this could work with the part of the chase around 6:17, and when you are abstracted, the music Caine has become distorted and actually kinda scary
It's giving Kevin Macleod
This is ironically one of the most terrifying themes I've ever heard
I love the sound of the snow in the background of his approaching theme. It reminds me of an old VHS tape
This would be great inspiration for the DBD crew to get from for a toy or video game come to live character for their theme. It's got that slowly rising silliness to it and chaos. Maybe a slight more splash of typical horror themes to finish it - only slight for the chase / near parts -
love how this is still somehow unsettling without any overtly upsetting sounds. just imposing
Yet another time where I think “god this would actually go so hard.”
I saw a lot of people suggesting this one on other videos, and I’m really impressed with how it turned out! Compared to your other silly-style killers, I was pleasantly surprised to see this one lean less into the horror, almost making it more scary? There are so many layers to this song- the distorted birdsong, the crunchy music notes calling back to analog technology, and then the goofy sound effects chase theme, followed by a more played straight horror chase theme. The way you used that horn sound effect is CRAZY dude. Feels like I’m only more impressed with each and every upload. Cheers to all your hard work Dandy!
I think his adventures are now starting to get Cray Cray
Pomni: Did you just F-KIng sold us to an eldritch creature?!
Caine: Nonesense Pomni! I also sold myself!
Some idea for Caine lines from every TADC media I can think of off the top of my head. (I don't know any of the other special characters so there will be no interactions with them that I can think of):
[Match starts]
"I assure you. There is no 'Magical exit door'. Your simply experiencing DIGITAL HALLUCINATIONS."
"Today's show has QUITE the performance!"
"Get ready for the song everybody!"
"We'll have a wild ride!"

[A single Survivor escapes]
"Oh no- People are venturing out into the void! They'll get completely spoiled!!!"
"TIME TO PANIC."

"WELP. I'm gonna go drink Water! It's been a while since I've done that!"
"Well it seems our new friend's already abstracted."

"And into the cellar you go!"
[Survivor gets downed]
"HAHAHAHAHA"
"Oh- There you are!"
[Caine misses Survivor]
"WHOOPS! Wrong thinga-ma-giga-ma!"
"Welp. My new updates bugged."
[Survivors win]
"I.... do have to apologize for about the exit."
"THERE'S AN EASTER EGG."
I was about to say, that chase seemed way to happy for a horror game XD
Nice Mario 64 reference this looks something like an April fools video though I’m not critic but I will enjoy it
New Killer: The Ringmaster
Caine has no idea what he’s doing, and all he wants to do is give Survivors a new adventure. His personal perks, All-Seeing Eyes, Abstraction, and Digital Memory allow him to efficiently monitor Survivors while attacking from the dark.
0:00 Very nice! If I had to guess, did you take inspiration from the original theme?
1:50 **Insert Sans dialogue before the start of his attack.**
2:34 Okay, now this is getting a little weird.
4:28 This is not okie dokie.
5:14 You'll never take me alive!
6:17 *OH SHIT HE ABSTRACTED-*
"There is no exit"
-Caine
You simply cant win.
I can imagine in the CHASE!? Caine’s jaw just separates and he starts using them as hand slowly creeping towards you on all fours
In my head i imagine him in the chase that he would just do a silly, exciting, dance while quickly but silently floating towards you cuz it fits the chase theme a bit better.
I would imagine behavior asks glitch for making a The amazing digital circus chapter and tell them it’s gonna be a secret on April 1st
This ost is pretty nice! At first I thought “a bit weird ost for a horror game” then I remember tadc is a physiological horror series
This was quite the surprise, I can already imagine Cain being an April Fools character, also I do like the cameo of the bubble in the background
And since we are in the topic of Glitch Productions, I wonder why if you'll do a Murder Drones character someday, I can imagine being J or whatever she's named (the murder drone with the ponytails), or that russian speaking robot girl
Also also, since you did a Lobby Theme based on Caine, I wonder if you'll do future lobby themes for the previous killers and new ones
I find crazy to think Caine in these scary and deadly environments, as he is thinking that it's a scrapped adventure he made. So he has to rangle survivor back to the cirus. It makes me laugh to think about it😂
The near and chase music going from left to right in your ears would make for an amazing effect in game
I feel they they would actually do this but only on April fools day
Let the man cook
This would weirdly be terrifying.
I’m just imagining when Caine gets close he just starts acting and moving all crazy, terrifying to the person he is chasing, but just a goofy adventure for him
of all characters to put in DbD... this is simultaneously the most fitting and yet the most unfitting character. i love this idea
also don't think i don't notice that mario 64 reference in the art there lol
Ooh, he's doing the Mario 64 pose! Nice pull!
Amazing Work, Now I want to see Dead by Daylight X Murder Drones :)
A Digital Circus Chapter would be hilarious and Perfect April Fools Event
The chirps in the distant theme sound so familiar, yet strange . I mean this in the best way I can, but it’s like a Generative AI was told to recreate the chirping bird ambience from Sm64. Very fitting, considering the character.
Finally, you actually did the menu theme. Congratulations dandy. Oh! And more hints on making menu themes, you can repeat it 3 times.
“ domt worry you aren’t dieing your just taking a deep sleep on this nifty meat hook i found”
I think it's cool that since he talks so easily, when you drop a pallet in his face, he says: "You parasite!"
“OH MY GOD YOU RIPPED OFF MY ARM!!”
“Sit your pretty little head down, I’ll remove your other one just for you :D”
I find it fascinating how much mileage you can get from cartoon sound effects for a horror chase theme. I also love how the chase theme has 2 versions where one sounds like actual cartoon music and the other sounds like...well corrupted audio noise
The interesting about this is how 'extra' the DBD motif feels. Its supposed to be 4 notes, yet it leads into a piece of an ending chorus, and elsewhere.
I find this addition funny because it’s canon that Cain isn’t evil. He’s legit just an AI who doesn’t know understand humans-
