"Did we just grow a limb?"
*"OKAY"*
For swimming
We'll become the next monster
@@snubby49 I think that's actually what's happening; the giant tentacle monster that is fought at the end isn't an eldritch being, but rather a former human that the possessed relic made a pact with before the player character. Note that the extra limb that the protagonist grows at the end isn't just any arm, but an actual _tentacle._ The giant sea monster was probably a former human who went through the same thing, gradually growing bigger and growing more sea animal parts that they ceased to be considered human. Eventually, the thing became _too_ monstrous and wild, causing it to have a falling out with the sentient relic and forcing it to find another human host to kill it and take its place.
@@mrreyes5004 Yes, that's what I tought, I was just lazy to write down all of this😂
Its normal wdym
When you deliberately ignore the "safe shallows" and build your base in the abyss in Subnautica.
Dead zone bases be like
And you didn't bother to make a seaglide or any o2 tanks.
I built mine right next to where a reaper chills and I scared the shit outta myself
If I remember correctly, I built mine on the edge of the abyss near the island where the rocks are all pointy, because it had a “nice view”. Never again.
I had a base right where you teleport after the sea emperor, one under the dragon that circles the volcano mountains, and one near the ghost leviathan by the abyss and bubble forest with bloodvines. Daytime is creepy enough, but the nighttime is absolute nope.
Me: has a deep irrational fear of sea monsters
Also me: hehe click
I know that fear, bro
rat kid *That fear is very rational if you take a look at those things*
We all have a bit of masochism and curiosity inside us
In this case, Masochism would imply that you wanted to be ripped to shreds or eaten alive.
Same
Here Yahtzee said he didn't want people using the tentacles as an express elevator down so he tripled the oxygen loss while you're grabbed, and here's Manly who refuses to dive at all unless he's grabbed.
Problem with that is that it's not really obvious how much oxygen you're using until you get low. Plus, triple oxygen loss isn't that bad if you're moving three times faster
@@EmperorZ19 Not sure it's three times faster, but yeah it's really not clear that you lose oxygen faster.
Thats calles effective
Yahtzee made this? That makes sense... super solid gameplay.
@@wayneadams9102 You should check out his dev diary series on the escapist. He made 12 games in 12 months and explained his process, this was one of those games.
The way the camera zooms out as you swim down is a great touch. Really forces you to see how tiny you are.
Man, the ocean is scary.
I love that aspect. It perfectly encapsulates the feeling of spinning and diving underneath the water in deep ocean. I love deep sea diving and the camera zoom just seems to perfectly nail it exactly.
@@indigowendigo8165 At least space doesn't have freaky-looking monsters and sharks, that we know of
My 2nd time seeing 666 likes... both during the Covid era.. lol
Are you guys talasophobic?
Because i am.
@@SkittlesInYourHand what if it has one?
This game was made as part of a series where the creator (Yahtzee) designed and completed 12 games in 12 months, releasing biweekly videos to update his progress and discuss game design. It's called "Yahtzee's Dev Diary" and worth the watch.
Doesnt seem like the game has much punctuation either
I was looking for this comment
This reminds me of that game "They Breath" where you're a frog swimming in the deep and it's a horror game
Oh yeah! Thanks for reminding me!
That game still freaks me out. All the froggy corpses D:
Thank you! I was twisting my brain into knots trying to remember that game.
I hope Manly plays this game~ sounds interesting!
did you see on marks channel or somewhere else
Hats off to all of us who are deeply afraid of the ocean but clicked anyway lmao
Honestly the fear of the ocean is the one rational phobia, it is legitimately rather unsafe. No matter the unlikelihood of actually getting attacked by a shark or stepping on a stonefish or something, the chance is still there and if it does happen, either intense pain is guaranteed or death is almost guaranteed..
@@catpoke9557 Well most if not all phobias are remnants from when we were much simpler creatures, I would say acrophobia, arachnophobia and thalassophobia as you said aren't as irrational as some of the more specific ones, like let's say submechanophobia.
@gamewizard I this is it.
Looking up in the sky I never feel that way, but when I look inside the deep and pure darkness of the ocean fear takes a hold of my heart. I swim slower than I run so I feel defenseless in the water, darkness goes on forever and whatever watches me trough that darkness could probably hunt me faster than I can swim to the shore.
Unironically I am a natural at swimming in pool and sea, I just get a crippling fear every time I look down into the darkness.
I’m literally just scared on what’s gonna happen, like what kind of creatures will I find? Where will I go? “When does it end”
Lmao i did also

I love that you play different types of games and generally not the big names, it makes your channel interesting x
@@surprisesdaedra2863 yea I've been a fan since like 2014 and i gotta say Manly is honestly an amazing channel
He has so much personality and spirit i love him
I concur with all the above statements lol
I've been watching Manly since I was 16-17, and am 23 now. I completely agree he's awesome! :)
So true, lol.
what do you mean 'not a big name'?The game is made by Yahtzee-motherfucking-Croshaw
This man just uses the eldritch being as his uber to explore the sea 😭 the disrespect
Welcome to the Cardio Club, How Cardio Are Ya?
Im not cardio sadly :(
I feel like I'm suffocating
One could say i'm drowning in it, if ya know what I mean.
I'm so cardio, you could say I got the bends for it.
Manlyyyy
Oh no, not the ocean. We all know how it be.
That how it be Yugi
‘Cause that is where you’ll find me, underneath the sea.
Unda da seaaaaa
@@lillyuwu4054 Unda da seaaaaa
@@lillyuwu4054 anda da seaaa
Ah, so this is how you can become an Eldritch horror
Bloodborne Prequel
That...and beating the Moon Presence in Bloodborne. ^^
Darkest Dungeon just hands you Eldritch Abominations, on the other hand. Doesn't quite go into detail how they got that way, though.
Daelyah if you mean Abom as a class then it’s explained in his affliction barks that he became this way as a result of an experiment iirc
@@cartooncritique6625 Gotta eat the alien umbirical cords first though!
Yahtzee proves that not only he know how to critique a game, he also knows how to make one. Short but sweet.
I loved his Chzo Mythos games back in the day. They're such good horror games.
It's a poor critic that only criticize and can't follow their own advice. Fortunately, Yahtzee is not a poor critic. ^^
@@cartooncritique6625 That's presuming a game critic needs to make games before criticizing them, and that's just silly.
@@courierbilly That's not what I said, but okay.
@TooLateToTheStory Yep. And he's making 12 games for 12 months. This is one of them. He's got a video series documenting on how he develops each game per month.
You can't make me fear the ocean, that's my default setting already
I haven’t been there, but I want to
this game captures the feeling of diving so well :0 with the whole "the deeper you go the slower you get" thing and the return to the surface being much quicker
"the mouths" he says while avoiding crab claws
Perhaps one of my greatest fears is being stranded in the middle of a midnight ocean.
* shudders * mine too
Called thalassophobia it is
@@yasininn76 Yoda there you are
The tentacle monster seems to be based off the monster from "I fell in love with the majesty of colors"
Oh hey, someone else who remembers that old flash game! Yeah, it gave me those vibes too.
I used to play that game as a kid n had no idea wtf was goin on till i played it again years later
na na it’s clearly based off of monster Incs monster
Holy shit wait... I know I played that game... the name is too nostalgic. But what happened in it? I can't remember
@@scp-682-cu6 some black tentacle monster grabs a balloon, discovers colors, interacts with humans (either drowns them or helps them), endings depend on which path you took and how successful you were at them
I love how Manly-senpai says *we* did or *we* got this far. Like we are not just watching him play but play alongside him.
He did say "grab us" 😂
Talking about yourself in plural is in TH-cam 101 somewhere. If you look for it, a lot of TH-camrs do this.
Exactly : ) super fun to ride along with the homeboy and feel involved. Really glad I even happened on the hero's profile.
did you just call Manly a "senpai"?
*i mean, ok*
love your profile pic. Porco Rosso
What if: You wanted to go to your boat
But PDA said: *OXYGEN*
Laughs in brain coral
We know more about the surface of our moon than the deepest depths of our own oceans...
What just brushed up against your leg? Probably some seaweed....Just innocent seaweed.
Innocent seaweed...and NOTHING MORE...
_pls don't do that_
@@bluedragonfly8139 now i want an ocean themed parody of the raven
_I am not seaweed excuse me_
Yeah....all seaweed wraps around your leg....and starts pulling...and pulling...and *pulling.*
Manly: It's a helpful game mechanic
*bubbles at the surface
Manly: aw crap.........aww crap
I'd love to see a horror game based around the Bloop. Some mysterious giant underwater creature while you are trapped in a submarine or a diving suit would be interesting.
I think there's a game called narcosis or something which is similar to that
Now you have iron lung
HELL YEAH
narcosis isn't like what he described@@adumbbagel4015
Lung Extensions: The Game
This was terrifying to me, I've had a recurring nightmare about a giant eye under the water so when it first opened i screamed. great game, loved it.
I had a reocurring lucid "nightmare" where i would wake up in my bed but in the middle of the Ocean.
"this game will make you fear the sea"
Me, who already fears the sea: *stonks*
Between the air plane crash and the fact that there was an on-line interactive ad campaign called Something in the Sea, I'm getting serious Bioshock flashbacks with this game!
at one point, it looked to me like the creature had a human-ish hand. i thought it'd be interesting if the creature was actually some kind of gigantic undersea human(oid). all pale and wrinkled and... eck
i agree that the deep sea is an untapped treasure trove for horror. fuck the ocean, man.....
dat shit's scary
Ningen
@@benjamincooper358 Ningen
Well maybe the creature had already used the green magic thing and transformed into this. The magic thing thought maybe it wasn't good enough, so it waited until another human being arrived to make them defeat the creature and take it's place
I seriously love how you play smaller, usually indie games that don't get as much attention as the big names out there. It gives this kind of cozy feeling of a smaller community that I personally really enjoy.
I hope you'll be able to make videos as long as you want to, man.
Ye I like that part about him
Woah! Didnt expect to see Yahtzee's game here, I knew he was making them for his 1 game a month deal but this is the first time i've seen anyone, like, make a video on em.
He's made a few point and click lovecraftian horrors before & another management based one a few months ago as well!
Always glad your vidoes are diverse in the creators, love seeing new and old things.
I haven't been keeping up with him so it was a really big (and good) surprise to see his name at the end!
I loved the Chzo Mythos series back in the day. They're very much up Manly's alley, would be cool to see some fresh playthroughs of them (assuming he hasn't already gone through them in his spare time at some point).
I remember enjoying his roguelite Cthulhu-ey horror game. Can't even remember the name any more though.
@Zaalt Naerthe thank you!
Omg yes!! Would love to see Manly play Yahtzee's Chzo Mythos games!
Manly: "This is a funny scenario. When you want to be grabbed by a tentacle."
I'm pretty sure that's hentai.
God, it's scary in 3rd person, can you imagine this in 1st person?! IN REAL LIFE?!?!
I can imagine dying instantly
Jokes on you, even lakes already make me panic more than my house being on fire. I couldn't FATHOM what an ocean would do to me.
Me: *already fears the ocean*
This game will make you fear the ocean.
Me: we’ll see about that...
Fear²
I grew up as a strong swimmer and never feared water until I went snorkeling in Maui, I was just fallowing a sea turtle and playing around but the next thing I knew I was at the drop off of a reef. I think that was the point in my childhood I got Thalassophobia. I grew up in landlocked place that didn't have real threats in that water. I was probably 13 at the time and a kilometer off shore, the deep ocean is scary as hell.
"A Deep Sea Horror Game That'll Make You Fear the Ocean"
Already ten steps ahead of you buddy.
Yahtzee?! God, I haven't heard that name in so long. I can't believe Yahtzee has created a game since Chzo Mythos - this is sending me back.
He's doing a project where he's developing 12 indie games over 12 months. It's fantastic.
@@firefly5247 Holy fuck, that's awesome! I need to check that out.
He still does game reviews too. You can find them all on TH-cam.
@@cerisewolfeah And he also documents it in his videos. You might get some good advices on game design too since he defines the important fundementals for a game as well as answers some questions from the comments.
whenever the character goes down i hold my breath and i dont even know why
Same fam
I like to watch this guy late at night, helps me calm down... if only he wasn’t playing horror games, I would actually be calm lmao
8:03 a better reaction than I would have
As someone who has thalassophobia this is terrifying
I have some ending theories
1, the most likely, the sphere was turning the man into something like the beast, the beast shattered the sphere and the sphere wants revenge. That extra limb is a tentacle.
2, the beast was made to guard the sphere and the sphere is turning the man into something else. That extra limb is either a tentacle or a tail
I don't need help fearing the ocean more than I already do.. deep water is absolutely bone chilling and terrifying
Reminds me a bit of "they breathe" which is also really unsettling. Actually maybe more so because it is not the familiar Chutulu-mythos but very quirky and weird.
Starting the game: wait, why are there moose in the water?
Later: *OH.*
Ah yes a perfect vid to watch at night even tho I have thalassophobia
This is the kind of horror games I like! No crappy jump scares, not a whole lot of bs rng. The game actually scares you, creeps you out. This is pure, unfiltered horror
It's rare that these indie horror games actually present a challenge. Pretty interesting.
Hello ManlyBadassHero, dude your voice is awesome. I usually don't like gameplay videos with commentaries, but your voice is so calm in the videos and very soothing. Thank you.
Oh man Yahtzee's a great horror writer. The Chzo Mythos is phenomenal, should check those out if you haven't.
I'm having trauma like drowning because when I was 12... Someone pulled my right leg pulled me down and it was scary experience in my whole. Luckily I was rescued by a random stranger who helped me.
What kind of freak pulled almost drowns a 12-year old?
@@MrRAGE-md5rj Yea he should be arrested
Yahtzee is still a reviewer actually, and he's doing a
1 game per month for a year, he is at month 10 or 11 i think, i forgot honestly
The WATGBS reboot looks great.
Stands for what?
@@mitchellzollinger1100 Wadanohara and the Great Blue Sea
Love what they did with Sal
@@mozart4344 I imagine that during a final battle between Wadanohara and Sal, he turns into a giant part shark part leviathan monster all while laughing and saying "THE OCEAN IS MINE!!!"
@Astrid Tiongson By some, I think you mean Memoca and Dolphi. Fukami, Chill! I know your jealous of Samewada but this is too far, even for you!
As someone who's been watching Zero Punctuation and Manly for years this was such a pleasant surprise to see in my sub box!
Of all the games you played recently, this one really frightened me
I really enjoy yahtzee's horror games (the consuming shadow and trilby's notes in particular) so its good to see him back at it with the spooky stuff.
Me: *can’t swim*
Also me: hehe he’s not wearing clothes
Have you played the Lovecraft themed game “Reveal the Deep” I know its on Steam and its kinda short and sweet but still spooky.
Really happy to see you playing one of Yahtzee's games. This was one of the games he developed as part of his "12 months - 12 games" challenge
Dang this gameplay of yours, even now still give me chills. Nostalgic!
You da best, Manly. Started way back when you were doing the runs through System Shock. This is great content, you're chill and I'll be blessed to see you survive even the most Eldritch of horrors. Game was simple, clean, and effective!
Oh cool, you covered this! This game was made in one month along with 11 others that Yahtzee made within a year. He covered all of them in his Dev Diary videos :)
I thought you mean for a moment that the sea game had to do with the game yahtzee
Getting trapped in the middle of the ocean is my worse nightmare. Let alone begin trapped with a ocean monster 😅

*more fuel for the fire then...*
gOD THIS IS UNNERVING
Thank you for introducing me to this! I love me some Lovecraftian Horror.
Wow never thought there's alot of Thalassophobia here.
"I'm already terrified of the ocean, can't be that bad to watch this." I said before finding out i was wrong.
very simple gameplay thats been polished to a fantastic experience.
Manly playing a Yahtzee game. Oh man what an amazing combination =)
Love your channel
I've been following yahtzee's gameing series this is the one that's been most interesting so far.
Hit by the nostalgia seeing you on my recommended, I think I used to watch ur videos when I was a kid. The Japanese rpg horror ones
Joke's on you: I ALREADY fear the sea.
20:05 this made me literally drop my phone
This brings me memories of Sunless Sea. Given the game's aesthetic.
_Underwater, man becomes an archangel ~Jacques Cousteau_
Or another demon? "We will be glorious" sounds like you are becoming some monster that someone/something intentionally destroyed into the very pieces you were compelled to collect. Could you as a mere mortal survive that or did you die? The ending was up for grabs. But what an interesting game! I love anything with diving & water that involves the concept of overcoming fear of the great unknown depths & things that lurk beneath.
Nice job MBH!
Me, who has thalassophobia: Yeah, this seems like a good video to watch.
I love this kinda stuff, the deep sea is truly horrific
My fear of the deep sea intensified, especially when it comes to subnautica (´༎ຶོρ༎ຶོ`)
Im just replying so i can copy the emote on desktop later
SOMA really spooked me good
Eeeeee
E
Too late, already fearin' the deep
I always had
I love your channel
I'm already scared of the ocean so i'll be fine!
edit: I wasn't fine.
Bold of you to assume I wasn't afraid of the ocean before this video.
Never thought I'd see one of Yahtzee's games on this channel. Though, since you're playing more obscure titles I should expect as much.
Man I have a great feeling of fear of ocean/large body of water, this game genuinely made me feel uneasy.
Yeah it gave me some serious anxiety, especially when running out of air, I felt myself getting antsy and holding my breath 😂
Glad to see Yahtzee's games getting some love
"Death-Fireballs!" more deadly than regular fireballs. xD
I already had a fear of the ocean from Wind waker, my fear of when going under water my ears get clogged and I panic when under, and the fact that there’s nothing out there. So jokes on you manly! :)
Zero punctuation! He still does that, along with game development.
There's not just predators.
There's also general deep sea gigantism.
Creatures so massive they could kill you entirely by accident.
Me: * Has thalassophobia*
Also me: I'm sure it's not thaaaaaat scary * Proceeds to watch the video with the phone as far as I can*
Yahtzee really has a talent for eldritch horror
YAYAY dev diary!! Fun fact if you like this you can find the guy who made this documenting the development process. He made a bunch of other games to check out dev diary
Yahtzee is making video games now? That is something I'll be keeping in mind. This was pretty fun, it kept that tension going. You're completely right about the lack of deep sea horror games, there's so much potential there. The ocean is terrifying with the right perspective applied to it.
Yahtzee has made a lot of games, and he's done a developer commentary on a bunch of his older stuff!
Really hope we'll see Manly play more of Yahtzee's games in the future... 🤞
Hard to believe that this masterpiece was done in a month
This game gives me some heavy "Water's Fine" vibes, where you're diving to gather money so you can buy upgrades. It's a pretty innocent game initially, but the developer ("Owch") puts in some kinda off-putting but intriguing stuff into all their games, Water's Fine included. I'd very highly recommend checking their games out if you want a set of games that're connected but _very_ cryptic in their story-telling, in a way like Found Horror Game! I think.
Love these pixel art style games.
When I saw the title screen that it's made by yahtzee , I was happy
