Welcome to the Line It Up Club how Line It Up are ya? *note* I previously played the demo of this but this is the full game. Also I'll probably go into this in a separate thing or a stream but there's gonna be a big video catchup rush after this as the close family member I mentioned in my last stream in the hospital (indirectly from Helene) passed which combined with post hurricane cleanup took me away from the channel for a bit but I'm back.
The VA actually made the German accent work, although that usually ticks me off *bad* (as a German) …okay, I wrote too soon, he lost me with “go yodel his mother” 😂😂😂
There's nothing quite like the feeling of Manly revisiting a cool game once the full version comes out after already having played the demo, and you start recognizing stuff from the first video and how they're different in the full version. I wish more games did demos, always nice to see the little changes.
Slacking on our training now are we Goku? ChiChi is gonna be infuriated! You skip training for gaming. Good luck with that tongue lashing. Have a Senzu Bean at the ready...
Tbh that ending sucked lol so many u answered questions, maybe there will be a sequel or something? Maybe they meant for us to be in the dark but then what's the point of the game? Not exactly riveting gameplay it was a cool story tho wish we could finish it
Yeah it was a lot of really good setup for a disappointing end. All that setup with hints of supernatural influence and intrigue leading up to just a shootout with a big monster we know nothing about was just... weird. It couldve worked a lot better, but it just falls flat. No answers, only more questions, especially since it was implied Comardy couldve been the sniper killer, confirmed he wasnt, then had that epilogue where a walkie talkie and bullet appears in his cell, saying he might be?? It just doesnt work.
Considering how many people who aren't targets ended up getting killed by the end (the campground, the construction zone, the security guards) I'd say so.
@@rayan1895 True. Then Pamela must've been an innocent victim. Though, the thing is, are these people really what the "headquarters" say they are? While the mayor sucked (didn't posponed the parade just so he could ride that thingy) why was he an anti christ? The city was full of crazy people but... Why the trailer park people and the kids would be considered devil worshippers or plan a conspiracy? Also an ex KGB agent sleeping on a street? It was all made up by the entity, i believe. At first it was believable but the last few levels made it pretty clear something wasn't right.
Assassinate the guy in the werewolf costume-"Got it, kill the furry." Approaches grieving and crying vampire-"Suck it up!" Manly, your jokes are gold, GOLD I tell you!
The demo was cool, this full game is just wild. I liked jumping between perspectives and the gameplay between them, the mystery was compelling, the escalation worked really well. I didn't expect the ending, and there's a part of me that would have preferred things go in another direction, but I do think it's still really strong all around.
Yeah I honestly feel pretty disappointed with the monster thing. The epilogue helped a bit but to have a monster after this cool back and forth building was eh. Plus if it’s only really significant if you know the other games then ☹️ Still super fun though

I swear, your ability to keep the same personality and use the same old jokes over and over again for so many years on here is why I love your videos. It's nice to find content creators who just do things the way they like rather than constantly changing to keep views at max, but you also don't let yourself get lazy with this work. You keep commentary interesting, you find all endings and make sure to edit out the most boring bits of gameplay. It's admirable.
It's like rewatching your favorite show because its comfortable and nothing changes since you already watched it before. Except Manly is playing a different game he just stays the same.
1:18:02 I like how this one failed attempt to fire the sign down is recognized here. The developer knew, that the player would first shoot at the sign and then at the bracket. I wonder if the dialoge would have changed, if the player went for the bracket first, instead of the sign. If it is the case, then this would be a nice detail.
i thought it was funny because you’re obviously not meant to shoot there, so because manly did the detective was acting like it wasn’t obvious (because ordinarily it wouldn’t be)
Played through the game, didn't shoot the sign i immediately went for the brackets and the sign still was shot as well. Honestly I was really confused while playing through the game on why the sign had a bullet. Looked at this video for the ending and well thanks to this comment I now know what happened there lmao
My first shot was actually at the barrel. Then I shot the bracket. When it cut to the bit with the detective I was like "Hey thats not where I shot but whatever."
Kinda wished that we fought the sniper killer himself in the end, instead of the monster, in Simon against himself at the end of Cry of Fear style, where Jeffrey is trying to snipe us using various positions inside of his house and basement, maybe a distorted version of him due to detective going a bit out of his mind while investigating. And the sniper killer actually being just ptsd ex-war guy who sends missions by "the headquarters" (himself) to himself. Anyways, loved the game, and thank you Manly for showing it
I really like the shifting perspective but I think it would be super cool in reverse. Like you show up to the scene finding clues to peace the story together then act it out. The accident death is a good example of why its not as good the current way, Manly already knew to check the sign so its more about trying to force the detective to see what you already know
I love the loading screen animation. They didn't have to do anything special, but they thought of it, so they did it. I'm a sucker for little extra touches like that
Ngl,the game lost me when they introduced supernatural elements,I would’ve much preferred it to just be a mystery thriller where the killer doesn’t get revealed until the end. They had a cool idea but I feel like the ending got botched by them shoehorning in a connection to their other games for no reason.
I thought it would essentially be a government agent that their codes got abandoned/hijacked by someone else who was now just telling essentially a sleeper agent or government agent with the instructions to follow orders no matter random targets.
MAJOR SPOILERS ALERT But I feel like there were no supernatural elements tho?.. It was all just a man, who was completely out of his mind. He had psychosis, hallucinations and other stuff. We cant really tell why he was the way he was, but I don't really see supernatural elements if u look at this game from realistic perspective. Or maybe we interpreted the ending differently. And you interpreted it as if Comardy actually wasn't a sniper killer and then, when he killed the real sniper killer, he "let in" this supernatural thing and that's why he's in an asylum in the end. Maybe we just differently interpreted the ending and from your point it's a game about supernatural stuff. Idk. But for me it actually was a pretty nice game. It's not that good, but I honestly didn't think of this game highly when I started watching (I didn't see a demo of this game, so I had not even a slight idea of what was going to happen), so it didn't leave me dissatisfied.
I noticed at 2:15:36 that you can actually see the chief, Dutch, and Comerdy from the sniper's view. I wonder if there is anything special that happens if you shoot one of them.
I'm not too happy with the writing of this game. I think the last fight shouldn't be done with a sniper rifle. If Comardy was supposed to be the one fighting the being, it's not thematic for him to use the sniper rifle. (As the pistol is Comardy's weapon thematically.) It might be an "epic fight", but it's pointless because Comardy just gets possessed in the end anyway. And no, Comardy _isn't_ the Sniper Killer, as much as there are certain things implying he might still be, because we have multiple proofs that supports Comardy not being the Sniper Killer: 1. Dutch and Comardy were in a car chase against the Sniper Killer, and Dutch checked in on Comardy in the end, this means Comardy WAS in the car with Dutch, chasing after a real car; 2. Dutch didn't go "wait, isn't this your place?" Occam's razor would say, there WAS a Jeffery, it was where Jeffery was living, Jeffery was the Sniper Killer, and the man Comardy killed in the end _was_ Jeffery (instead of, say, the house was Comardy's, and a home intruder just happens to be there and grabbed the sniper rifle); 3. We see Comardy with the Sniper Killer's perspective during the parade. It could be a trick, yes, but with the above two, I think it makes more sense to simply say, no, it was not a trick. Jeffery really did see Comardy with the other police officers there. Maybe the last fight wasn't done by Comardy, you might say. Well, since Comardy was the one who blanked out, it makes sense to think that the fight was in fact done by Comardy. Why would Jeffery fight the being, anyway? He didn't have a reason to doubt the walkie-talkie, and he also didn't show any signs of doubt during his missions. So, it makes more sense to say Comardy was the one who fought the being in the end. Either way, I'm unhappy with this game's writing. I feel like the dev used too many misdirections ("Maybe the Sniper Killer is just crazy", "Maybe the Sniper Killer ISN'T crazy", "Maybe Comardy is the Sniper Killer", "Oh wait, maybe Comardy ISN'T the Sniper Killer (but maybe he still is! Or not!)", "Maybe Comardy was going crazy", "No wait, maybe it WAS supernatural"), so it just feels like cheating to me. Like the dev isn't here to tell a story, the dev is just here to make sure we guess the plot wrong. Yes, there WERE hints... but there were also too many anti-hints/misdirections. I'm not saying stories shouldn't use any misdirections. Just that the dev used _too many_ here, and instead of feeling "Oh wow, that was brilliant!" I just feel... cheated and dissatisfied. And I wager I'm not the only one feeling dissatisfied/miffed about the story. But, sigh, feel free to disagree. I probably won't reply to any disagreements. I think people will either get pissed because of the misdirections, or be completely fine with it (or feel like it was the appropriate amount of misdirections), and thus it makes no sense to them why I'm complaining so hard about what seems to be perfectly fine/completely reasonable to them. For what it's worth though, I do think this game was good in general. It's just the writing in this game. I actually liked the dev's other games too, with no problem whatsoever about them.
I'm so glad someone put what I was feeling into words so I don't have to write the essay 😂. Yeah, I completely skipped the boss fight cause it was so out of left field it felt like they just put it in for no reason. It doesn't even make any sence.
Tbh, this game sometimes feels like the dev ran out of ideas and started just putting things that they found interesting, even though they didn't make sense in the story.
@@matissimoj1190 I think it's the fixation to be "unpredictable". The plot would have been fine (IMO) without the supernatural element... There were so little build up for a supernatural story that it felt like switch and bait instead. I actually felt the scenarios were pretty cool, UNTIL it decided to go full supernatural with an ending fight that doesn't make sense.
@@dividedstatesofamerica2520 The best games in existence are indie games. This is such a broad category that you can't just say that based on one game. There are plenty amazing indie games. Especially in the era of AAA slop.
This game makes good use of sniping. Instead of a team PVP where everyone is a real person constantly paranoid about snipers, NPCs who act as if snipers aren't even on their minds and need to see someone's body to get worried.
Anyone who defends snipers in PvP should have their opinions discarded. Not _everything_ is subjective in these matters, it's objectively unfun to have to constantly worry about snipers in a game, and just get instantly beamed from across the map with no recourse. It might be fun to do it yourself, sure, but nobody likes being on the receiving end. Especially in a game where you go around spending a lot of time looting things, having to painstakingly find weapons and ammo in the first place, only to have hours of progress instantly taken from you by a guy a mile away who you have literally zero defense against and have no way of even knowing about until you're already dead. Snipers in PvP are a game design failure. End of discussion. The one and only exception I would make is a low stakes game where snipers are the entire point of the game, but that's not how they're implemented. I think their presence even increases the amount of cheaters a game has, because it's an ideal weapon for them to use.
@@WyxianGames Honestly even just designing out the assumption that snipers deserve instakill megachaining would at least mitigste things some. Longer delays between shots, less control over if you do in fact get the oneshot off, some way to bounce the bullet back, anything that defies the expectation that there exists a level of skill that justifies someone wiping half the enemy team in too short a timespan for the most anti-Snipers characters that aren't also Snipers too to retaliate agsinst in some way.
17:38 Calling it now: Sniper was at some point a real gov. agent but their comms lines got hijacked. EDIT AT 30:42 Jeff is his real handler trying to re-establish contact. Alternately: Actual gov. just lying to him about his targets. 2:27:17 Okay apparently no answer on that part? 2:29:07 Ah. I was actually hoping it wasn't that at all.
@@blternative Was genuinely hoping that the sniper was gonna have zero connection to any other characters and all Manly's trying to figure who it is was gonna just be waste really. That for once a story like this would genuinely not give a rat's rear about some big reveal of the sniper's identity.
@@youtubeuniversity3638I don't think that's it at all. The end was very confusing but it honestly feels impossible that the detective is the sniper. The car chase sequence, the fact that they confirmed he shot someone dead in that cabin (through D.Dutch) and that the motel clerk didn't recognize him despite presumably being there just hours before
19:16 Always liked how some of the games have a common continuity with its setting, also just makes you realize how many killers are on the loose in that place.
'The killer is a spectacular shot, almost uncanny' --- proceeds to fill the alleyway full of lead, unable to hit Gail until he catches her point blank.
I wish my reactions to getting jumpscared were immediately shooting a firearm while saying "no!" in lowercase. You owned it as always, and it was fun to watch you play
Excellent game, it really kept me invested in what was going on. Especially the intro where you think you're playing as the new MCs (the journalist in trainings) only for that to be proven wrong quick
Spoiler warning. That was extremely unsatisfying right? Like, all this mystery and no resolution because he was just a pawn in some monsters game that learn nothing about and now comardy is catatonic and he might become the next killer or something? Just so unsatisfying especially when it jarringly switches to a sniper fight with the monster. I hope there’s a sequel that makes this make sense
This story could been a brainwashing went wrong jeff was his handler he was brainwashed into thinking Jeff was work friend an a terrorist sell hijacked him into thinking that Jeff is nobody and to gain trust he is being sent to kill bs people that are supposedly spy’s and at the end pop the mayor and the gibberish files,forgetting and halucations are side affect of the brainwashing
I hate when they make such a good build up and they throw it all away with supernatural stuff. Not the first time they make this and it really just dissappoints me every time, like, you cant just throw supernatural stuff at the end for the sake of it, kt would've been better if it had a plot twist or some ending that connected all the strings at the end, like in bloodwash. We were left with a lot of unsolved questions like the men in black, the tape, the evidence was practically useless, the radio, freezer and at the end you just shoot Jeff and he dies just like that even tho he was the important guy they were chasing, it had no kick or nothing to it. Sad to see such a cool game and concept get thrown away just for sake of bad writting
The supernatural stuff could’ve worked if they managed to integrate it more into the story, make the audience wonder if people are just seeing thing, but when the sniper opens up the box and gets jumpscared, we realize that it’s real, and when comardy enters that house and encounters the manikins, someone mentions that the building had a gas leak or hallucinogens.
Your videos are absolutely Wonderful and make my day watching even though you hardly talk and when you do it’s not much emotion it makes the game so much more Real and relaxing, thank you for these videos
So you were right that they’re all connected in the same universe, cause they also mentioned the womb ripper from bloodwash and you can’t forget the creepy guy who is in every game. It’s so most definitely they have to be all connected and one universe
Wow, I remember when you played the demo for this; that was a long time ago... huh, didn't think about how long I've been watching your videos until now
The ending is like if you quit the game before the ending and went to a completely different games ending and took that ending as the ending of the original game you were on.
Was I the only one who hoped it wasn't the "OH COMARDY AND SNIPER KILLER ARE THE SAME" I was rolling my eyes at the idea tbh. Like... too many movies, shows, and games have done that TO DEATH.
Fun game, idk how to feel about that ending but appreciate the cameos. Peepaw ain’t the only weirdo in his family and Dr. Pleasant is still dealing with the crazies.
the voice acting in this game was phenomenal. Everyone was great. Jeff's voice was my favorite, his voices sounds sexy ngl, I hope he voice acts in an otome game ;)
The buildup was insane, the ending, not so much, either way i enjoyed watching the 2 and a half hours of video, even if it left me a sour taste in my mouth.
Spoiler: I was thinking that it's refreshing that it's not a played out "you're the killer" ending, but the ending being a cut to black, followed by a late "NOW you're the killer" was super lame. Otherwise a really dope game with a cool concept!
So my understanding of the ending (I mentioned it in a reply already. SPOILERS obviously) The sniper section at the end is a perspective shift. Its not Comerdy, its Sniper Killer (who both is and isn't Jeff) after Jeff died. Sniper Killer is some sort of split personality or soul inside Jeff. Both Sniper Killer and the Monster are fighting for control over the body. The neighbor and the worms were like the monster's avatars. This is what it really meant when he went around spraying bugs. Sniper was keeping the monster out. Jeff was also trying to stop the monster but was just too weak. It didn't change anything. The monster acts as Sniper's handler in order to exhibit some control but he can only suggest what he does. It controls through suggestion. That's why all the killers have different motives and methods. This is the explaination for the arbitrary rules to the later killings. Its trying to control Sniper in subtle ways. When Comerdy kills Jeff he becomes the next killer cause that's how it works in-universe. But in the afterlife Sniper Killer kills the monster, thus becoming the new monster. The "avatars" (the neighbor and the worms) are replaced by Sniper's walkie talkie and bullet casing at the end of the game because its how Sniper communicates. The hallucinations Comerdy sees are either intentional or accidental red herrings. The monster was possibly priming Comerdy to kill Jeff but it evidentally happened too soon and backfired. The monster seems to "fish" for new killers. That's why the weird guy and other people know about the "neighbor". The monster probably picked Comerdy because it could foster his obssession with catching killers. Its a good excuse for picking targets and makes Comerdy and Sniper Killer a perfect pair. Sniper was killing threats to national security from his persepective. So Comerdy's targets will be "killers" and threats to society. Also this seemingly takes place before Ding Dong Dead because Dr Pleasant hasn't gone mad yet trying to stop the evil. Comerdy probably isn't the killer in that game but 1 before him maybe. I'm not totally sure.
idk i didnt really like the ending, its almost like they try to subvert the 'expected' ending too much (it was the cop the whole time) it would have been better if it was more ambiguous in my opinion or more confirmation that the cop is an unreliable narrator.
I admire my protagonist's ability to hide a whole sniper rifle so well. Granted he uses that power for bad reasons but it's impressive he has it in the first place.

And no, Comardy _isn't_ the Sniper Killer, as much as there are certain things implying he might still be, because we have multiple proofs that supports Comardy not being the Sniper Killer:
1. Dutch and Comardy were in a car chase against the Sniper Killer, and Dutch checked in on Comardy in the end, this means Comardy WAS in the car with Dutch, chasing after a real car;
2. Dutch didn't go "wait, isn't this your place?" Occam's razor would say, there WAS a Jeffery, it was where Jeffery was living, Jeffery was the Sniper Killer, and the man Comardy killed in the end _was_ Jeffery (instead of, say, the house was Comardy's, and a home intruder just happens to be there and grabbed the sniper rifle);
3. We see Comardy with the Sniper Killer's perspective during the parade. It could be a trick, yes, but with the above two, I think it makes more sense to simply say, no, it was not a trick. Jeffery really did see Comardy with the other police officers there.
Maybe the last fight wasn't done by Comardy, you might say. Well, since Comardy was the one who blanked out, it makes sense to think that the fight was in fact done by Comardy. Why would Jeffery fight the being, anyway? He didn't have a reason to doubt the walkie-talkie, and he also didn't show any signs of doubt during his missions. So, it makes more sense to say Comardy was the one who fought the being in the end.
Either way, I'm unhappy with this game's writing. I feel like the dev used too many misdirections ("Maybe the Sniper Killer is just crazy", "Maybe the Sniper Killer ISN'T crazy", "Maybe Comardy is the Sniper Killer", "Oh wait, maybe Comardy ISN'T the Sniper Killer (but maybe he still is! Or not!)", "Maybe Comardy was going crazy", "No wait, maybe it WAS supernatural"), so it just feels like cheating to me. Like the dev isn't here to tell a story, the dev is just here to make sure we guess the plot wrong. Yes, there WERE hints... but there were also too many anti-hints/misdirections.
I'm not saying stories shouldn't use any misdirections. Just that the dev used _too many_ here, and instead of feeling "Oh wow, that was brilliant!" I just feel... cheated and dissatisfied. And I wager I'm not the only one feeling dissatisfied/miffed about the story.
But, sigh, feel free to disagree. I probably won't reply to any disagreements. I think people will either get pissed because of the misdirections, or be completely fine with it (or feel like it was the appropriate amount of misdirections), and thus it makes no sense to them why I'm complaining so hard about what seems to be perfectly fine/completely reasonable to them.
For what it's worth though, I do think this game was good in general. It's just the writing in this game. I actually liked the dev's other games too, with no problem whatsoever about them.
I'm so glad someone put what I was feeling into words so I don't have to write the essay 😂.
Yeah, I completely skipped the boss fight cause it was so out of left field it felt like they just put it in for no reason. It doesn't even make any sence.
@@star22sally67 And I'm glad someone agrees with me lol.
Tbh, this game sometimes feels like the dev ran out of ideas and started just putting things that they found interesting, even though they didn't make sense in the story.
who is jeffery?
@@matissimoj1190 I think it's the fixation to be "unpredictable". The plot would have been fine (IMO) without the supernatural element... There were so little build up for a supernatural story that it felt like switch and bait instead.
I actually felt the scenarios were pretty cool, UNTIL it decided to go full supernatural with an ending fight that doesn't make sense.
What an unsatisfying conclusion to a cool buildup...
I almost wonder if there's gonna be a sequel that explains what we saw, but who knows.
yeah once it was supernatural I lost all interest.
Worthless game and a waste of time. Another reason I can't stand indie games.
@@dividedstatesofamerica2520 😐
@@dividedstatesofamerica2520 The best games in existence are indie games. This is such a broad category that you can't just say that based on one game. There are plenty amazing indie games. Especially in the era of AAA slop.
This game makes good use of sniping.
Instead of a team PVP where everyone is a real person constantly paranoid about snipers, NPCs who act as if snipers aren't even on their minds and need to see someone's body to get worried.
Lonewolf live reaction
Hot take:
Snipers do not belong in a PvP setting.
@@Pinkooru Shhh, the "well, actually" crowd will hear you!
Anyone who defends snipers in PvP should have their opinions discarded. Not _everything_ is subjective in these matters, it's objectively unfun to have to constantly worry about snipers in a game, and just get instantly beamed from across the map with no recourse. It might be fun to do it yourself, sure, but nobody likes being on the receiving end.
Especially in a game where you go around spending a lot of time looting things, having to painstakingly find weapons and ammo in the first place, only to have hours of progress instantly taken from you by a guy a mile away who you have literally zero defense against and have no way of even knowing about until you're already dead.
Snipers in PvP are a game design failure. End of discussion. The one and only exception I would make is a low stakes game where snipers are the entire point of the game, but that's not how they're implemented. I think their presence even increases the amount of cheaters a game has, because it's an ideal weapon for them to use.
@@WyxianGames Honestly even just designing out the assumption that snipers deserve instakill megachaining would at least mitigste things some.
Longer delays between shots, less control over if you do in fact get the oneshot off, some way to bounce the bullet back, anything that defies the expectation that there exists a level of skill that justifies someone wiping half the enemy team in too short a timespan for the most anti-Snipers characters that aren't also Snipers too to retaliate agsinst in some way.
The voice acting is great. It's about a tenth more emotive than neutral, which matches the cheesy PS1 visuals.
seriously all around amazing voice acting, watching this was so much fun
The acting was kinda cheesy with the line deliveries but overall pretty good.
Comardy sounds kind of like Agent 47. 🤔
"We want our mommy"
"Everyone does"
real shi
"GHOSTS DOESN'T HAVE MOMMIES"
"we wwnt our mommy"
BOO hoo
"We want our mommy"
"I want your mommy too"
17:38 Calling it now: Sniper was at some point a real gov. agent but their comms lines got hijacked. EDIT AT 30:42 Jeff is his real handler trying to re-establish contact.
Alternately: Actual gov. just lying to him about his targets.
2:27:17 Okay apparently no answer on that part?
2:29:07 Ah. I was actually hoping it wasn't that at all.
Yeah the ending was just... Dumb
@@blternative Was genuinely hoping that the sniper was gonna have zero connection to any other characters and all Manly's trying to figure who it is was gonna just be waste really.
That for once a story like this would genuinely not give a rat's rear about some big reveal of the sniper's identity.
@@youtubeuniversity3638I don't think that's it at all. The end was very confusing but it honestly feels impossible that the detective is the sniper. The car chase sequence, the fact that they confirmed he shot someone dead in that cabin (through D.Dutch) and that the motel clerk didn't recognize him despite presumably being there just hours before
@@wl4316Something tells me the story was rewritten near the middle due to some plot holes or something of the matter
As I read this I felt like I received your same disappointment in reap time 😅😂
19:16 Always liked how some of the games have a common continuity with its setting, also just makes you realize how many killers are on the loose in that place.
'The killer is a spectacular shot, almost uncanny' --- proceeds to fill the alleyway full of lead, unable to hit Gail until he catches her point blank.
with the fictional cheap price of ammo he jus trolling frfr
Damn the voice acting in this is absolutely crazy. It's like, too good for the game honestly.
It's a wasted on something with horrible writing as this sh-tty game.
spoiler/ Can’t believe I watched a feature length psychological horror film for it to be Jeff the Killer
the voice acting in this game really make everything very immersive, bravo
I love when I recognize VAs in indie games way outside of where I'd usually hear em! (also great video as per the usual)
It's 6:30am, still dark and misty outside, 2 hours until my shift, Manly posts a video. Bliss.
It’s 5:20 here
2a.m. now wherever the hell I'm at.
A cozy 2am video for me
It's 9-10pm at the time of upload (mountain time)
Despite everything at least his house is cleaner than Asmongolds
Asmongold has cleaned his house.
@@Angelo-tp3xghe's still a dirty little goblin though.
Finally, waited for the full version for so long.
Same here.
same, were you as disappointed as I was ?
@@simonspooder197 About what?
Manly, you are the backbone of me surviving sitting all day at work. Pls live forever
He is an immortal being older then time itself. I think we will be set for life on gold content!
53:46 I know the moment is serious but like
there's something funny about him rotating like that, and not even having a centered origin lmao ;-;
I wish my reactions to getting jumpscared were immediately shooting a firearm while saying "no!" in lowercase. You owned it as always, and it was fun to watch you play
Perfect timing, been waiting for this full playthrough! Thank you Manly!
dutch seemed like a nice guy. working with and now checking up on him.
Honestly the writing and voice acting is great, its super campy but in a really fun/funny way and not in a cringe way. bravo game bravo
53:00 I know that voice anywhere! Its that DUDE
😂😂 yeah sounds like the homie
I thought I was crazy for thinking it was Jay! I havent watched that guy in years so sick to see him do voicework now.
i knew that voice sounded familiar!!
SO IM NOT INSANE GOT IT
Who?
Excellent game, it really kept me invested in what was going on. Especially the intro where you think you're playing as the new MCs (the journalist in trainings) only for that to be proven wrong quick
Friend got hardscoped into bits
Geil 5 min later :" Hey maybe this is my lucky day ! " 😂
After the Detective killed the Sniper, he became the replacement, becoming brainwashed, still hunting the Sniper Killer
Spoiler warning. That was extremely unsatisfying right? Like, all this mystery and no resolution because he was just a pawn in some monsters game that learn nothing about and now comardy is catatonic and he might become the next killer or something? Just so unsatisfying especially when it jarringly switches to a sniper fight with the monster. I hope there’s a sequel that makes this make sense
And the whole cork board piecing the mystery together and the men in black amounts to jack shit.
And jeff on the tape recorder? Wtf were they thinking
This story could been a brainwashing went wrong jeff was his handler he was brainwashed into thinking Jeff was work friend an a terrorist sell hijacked him into thinking that Jeff is nobody and to gain trust he is being sent to kill bs people that are supposedly spy’s and at the end pop the mayor and the gibberish files,forgetting and halucations are side affect of the brainwashing
I hate when they make such a good build up and they throw it all away with supernatural stuff. Not the first time they make this and it really just dissappoints me every time, like, you cant just throw supernatural stuff at the end for the sake of it, kt would've been better if it had a plot twist or some ending that connected all the strings at the end, like in bloodwash. We were left with a lot of unsolved questions like the men in black, the tape, the evidence was practically useless, the radio, freezer and at the end you just shoot Jeff and he dies just like that even tho he was the important guy they were chasing, it had no kick or nothing to it. Sad to see such a cool game and concept get thrown away just for sake of bad writting
This is why most indie games are a complete waste.
@@dividedstatesofamerica2520you have to yap under every comment for no reason.
The supernatural stuff could’ve worked if they managed to integrate it more into the story, make the audience wonder if people are just seeing thing, but when the sniper opens up the box and gets jumpscared, we realize that it’s real, and when comardy enters that house and encounters the manikins, someone mentions that the building had a gas leak or hallucinogens.
The super natural stuff would have been explained for the sniper side effect of brainwashing and they fucked it up
Your videos are absolutely Wonderful and make my day watching even though you hardly talk and when you do it’s not much emotion it makes the game so much more Real and relaxing, thank you for these videos
Hey, I recognize this game! You did this game a long time ago!
Of course I assume this has updates and all...
@@123wwwweeeeeeeeeeeeethis si the full game, the other was the demo
@@eltacobandito ty for the info
So you were right that they’re all connected in the same universe, cause they also mentioned the womb ripper from bloodwash and you can’t forget the creepy guy who is in every game. It’s so most definitely they have to be all connected and one universe
The ending could be better. Dutch's "that theory sucks." saves it for me.
Wow, I remember when you played the demo for this; that was a long time ago... huh, didn't think about how long I've been watching your videos until now
I've been waiting so long for the full playthrough this game's soundtrack is fire
1:16:25 one of those rare time manly gets jumpscared I think
1:35:37 pov ur a c7 vertebrae feeling the evening breeze for the first time
Was wondering for so long why the store clerk sounded familiar, can’t believe the sphere hunter is in this game.
I listened again, your right.
I have been noticing she has been in a lot of things lately.
Damn, the aids sure has done a number on xer voice
Let’s gooo love when you play puppet combo games
Played this myself today. The Creepy Guy jumpscare legit got me.
Can we just appreciate how fantastic the voice acting in this is!!
Dang this was a WILD ride 🎉 i actually LOVED how this went down. Great pacing, fun VAs, sick lore- and of course EPIC SNIPING
This is quite the engaging narrative and I love the voice acting. Great work, Puppet Combo!
The ending is like if you quit the game before the ending and went to a completely different games ending and took that ending as the ending of the original game you were on.
Was I the only one who hoped it wasn't the "OH COMARDY AND SNIPER KILLER ARE THE SAME" I was rolling my eyes at the idea tbh. Like... too many movies, shows, and games have done that TO DEATH.
0:25 She's talking about that VA gig
I think she was very happy with the va gig because working with awesome people is fun. 😂
Fun game, idk how to feel about that ending but appreciate the cameos. Peepaw ain’t the only weirdo in his family and Dr. Pleasant is still dealing with the crazies.
Suzi Hunter voicing the desk clerk is so goood
the voice acting in this game was phenomenal. Everyone was great. Jeff's voice was my favorite, his voices sounds sexy ngl, I hope he voice acts in an otome game ;)
Another long Manly let's play? It's starting to feel more like Christmas than Halloween 🎃 🎄 ❤
1:08:18 those flying teeth and eyes really did it 😂😂😂
those parts were so funny 😂
The buildup was insane, the ending, not so much, either way i enjoyed watching the 2 and a half hours of video, even if it left me a sour taste in my mouth.
Spoiler:
I was thinking that it's refreshing that it's not a played out "you're the killer" ending, but the ending being a cut to black, followed by a late "NOW you're the killer" was super lame. Otherwise a really dope game with a cool concept!
So my understanding of the ending (I mentioned it in a reply already. SPOILERS obviously)
The sniper section at the end is a perspective shift. Its not Comerdy, its Sniper Killer (who both is and isn't Jeff) after Jeff died. Sniper Killer is some sort of split personality or soul inside Jeff. Both Sniper Killer and the Monster are fighting for control over the body. The neighbor and the worms were like the monster's avatars. This is what it really meant when he went around spraying bugs. Sniper was keeping the monster out. Jeff was also trying to stop the monster but was just too weak. It didn't change anything. The monster acts as Sniper's handler in order to exhibit some control but he can only suggest what he does. It controls through suggestion. That's why all the killers have different motives and methods. This is the explaination for the arbitrary rules to the later killings. Its trying to control Sniper in subtle ways.
When Comerdy kills Jeff he becomes the next killer cause that's how it works in-universe. But in the afterlife Sniper Killer kills the monster, thus becoming the new monster. The "avatars" (the neighbor and the worms) are replaced by Sniper's walkie talkie and bullet casing at the end of the game because its how Sniper communicates.
The hallucinations Comerdy sees are either intentional or accidental red herrings. The monster was possibly priming Comerdy to kill Jeff but it evidentally happened too soon and backfired. The monster seems to "fish" for new killers. That's why the weird guy and other people know about the "neighbor". The monster probably picked Comerdy because it could foster his obssession with catching killers. Its a good excuse for picking targets and makes Comerdy and Sniper Killer a perfect pair. Sniper was killing threats to national security from his persepective. So Comerdy's targets will be "killers" and threats to society.
Also this seemingly takes place before Ding Dong Dead because Dr Pleasant hasn't gone mad yet trying to stop the evil. Comerdy probably isn't the killer in that game but 1 before him maybe. I'm not totally sure.
Wait that makes sense then. If that's so then the supernatural twist makes sense
Wow this came out while I was awake for once instead of at like 4 in the morning.. sweet!
Wow me too, im also watching this while awake.
Wow. That was freakin' amazing. Thank you so much for playing and sharing this. This might be my favorite horror game of the year haha.
Love how sassy that “clearly not you” was
So happy to see this game back. Truly wonderful
idk i didnt really like the ending, its almost like they try to subvert the 'expected' ending too much (it was the cop the whole time) it would have been better if it was more ambiguous in my opinion or more confirmation that the cop is an unreliable narrator.
Does nobody even notices the guy walking around an amusement park, metro station and motel with a sniper rifle..?
I'd imagine it's in a briefcase or guitar case.

“Boom. Headshot.” -TF2 sniper
Manly! Im so happy you made it through the hurricane safe!
Certified sniper killer moment, now, with feeling (and maybe minor emotion)
I admire my protagonist's ability to hide a whole sniper rifle so well. Granted he uses that power for bad reasons but it's impressive he has it in the first place.
Awesome, this was a promising looking venture from a while back. Glad to see its full release.
Jay from the Kubzscout voice caught me off guard... 52:25
52:23 Jackie sounds like Jay from the Kubz Scouts wtf
I think he is Jackie's VA
He is, He voice jackie
2:29:43 so what you're saying is that he's... Jeff the killer?
thank you for the long play throughs manly. Means more than you'll ever know truly. Have a goodnight
The voice acting really brought the whole experience together
Manly you're the only TH-camr that uploads when I'm actually awake
"The Oppai Princess" is a hell of a voice actor name lmao
I instantly recognized suzi when the desk clerk talked, gotta love her voice
The neighbor you're thinking of is the one from 'Home Improvement', but to your credit, the fictional show the main guy stars in is 'Tool Time'
Was looking through the comments to see if anyone knew of Mr. Wilson from the show he was trying to remember. 👍
I just caught your demo an hour ago, how lucky to see the full version
Oh manly, how I love to watch you play my beloved puppet combo games
Gotta love seeing games getting full releases
Nice voice acting! I liked it a lot!!
Yeah the guy on the phone was Jeff the whole time, meaning he was the killer. Jeff the Killer, if you will.
I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS EARLY BEFORE, glad to see you play the full game!
