This video made me realize how cool the omori boy comics actually were and it makes me even more excited for the upcoming manga. Also Basil being called "the flower boy" just means something to me but I don't know what, I just find Basil's development really interesting for some reason
What many people don't understand is that if it wasn't for Omoriboy, OMOCAT definitely wouldn't have gotten to where she is today. In 9 years, Omori's concept as a game originated from a separate piece of Tumblr edginess webcomic created as a way for Omocat to help her put up with a chapter in her life, portraying the character as a less than 20 year-old stereotypical average isolated shut-in, but soon, it changed Omocat as a person, inspiring her to develop her own game about actually addressing depression, trauma and giving a life lesson, the rest is history. Omori didn't just change our lives, but also changed Omocat as well, which is why i love it even more.
I’ve always found the development of Omori so fascinating, I sometimes wish I could play earlier versions of it to see the differences they may have had
I played a demo of it in 2017 at a popup. Waited in line for 4 hours for it, was so excited (I'd been following the game's development), and then was genuinely disappointed when I tried it. Everything was unintuitive and buggy, the battles were confusing, and the narrative/quests weren't interesting. I put it down after maybe 10 minutes. I thought the game was a letdown. Fast forward to when I played the final version in 2020, it was incredible and became one of my all-time favorite games. I don't know all what they did, but those last three years in development definitely made a huge difference.
Omoriboy and cannon Omori seem like two entirely different people 😭 So glad they stuck with the current omori Ngl. I cant picture a p*rn addict omori and would rather keep that image out of my head.
@@XS0L_1i dont think something as major as the whole mari thing is just a last second addition or whatever. it's more likely that omocat already had the story planned but just never talked about it publicly until the game's release
fucking hell dude. as a person currently living the omori lifestyle unironically. Omoriboy might be the most relatable character I have ever seen in any piece of media anywhere
Hey, don’t worry, we’re all in this with you. I believe in you! Never give up. And when you have doubts, remember all the beautiful things in this world, like this game! Remember the people you’ve affected positively. You have time, you can do this, I know it.
@@scatteringsparks not to bring down the mood but I'll just be honest. Worse. I didn't eat or drink anything for 23 hours today before I finally ate some fruit. I slept 14 hours today forcing myself back to sleep each time. Thanks for the concern tho
man, this throws me back to those early days of being an omocat follower on tumblr... I loved her Pretty Boy comic and the original omoriboy comics, i basically grew up while waiting for the game to be released. Thanks for this throwback :)
Game dev really started with ‘hikkikomori boy’ and ended with ‘nah we raw digging dissociation and weeping openly at the healing power of friendship and how it’s never truly too late … until it is”
Oh that's interesting. Aubrey gender also change if you pick the Omori girl option 9:44. Now that I think about it, both Sunny and Aubrey are unisex name too so they won't need to change it. Aubrey was always meant to be Omori's love interest, huh?
That phrase has both meaning and context once you finish the game a second time (let's face it, it's pretty hard not to open the door for Kel the first time). 3:11
I just finished the game Omori today and its horror elements have seriously stuck with me. Watching this video and seeing how much love was put into it makes me really happy
The only way to actually make an amazing indie game horror made by a small team living in their moms basement is to live in your moms basement for 10 years and have a small team. Am I really going to take this risk?
I would like to take the risk, I don't know about you, but I have a strong desire to do something like that, seeing Omori was what sparked my desire, to make a story that impacts people. I would take the risk, but unfortunately I don't know where to start, I'm lost and alone :(
this is an amazing collection of the game's development art!!!! btw tv head girl is not the only character that belonged to omocat and made it into omori, there's also fishboy and pretty boy comic characters! :D btw to ppl talking abt omoriboy's laptop it's well known he's not the same as the omori character + omoriboy is ~20 while omori is 12 so please stop using it as a reason to say omocat is weird, just look into the game's development more and after make your own decisions abt how u feel abt it
The ships Omocat implies are not reliable because first she made a suntan post written 'the love bench' and then she made sunflower, a tweet that reads 'omg omori x basil already' and now she made hints of implied sunburn, I don't really think she was serious with all of these ship posts (sunflower and suntan) and in-game ships (sunburn)
I can't tell if I like Aubrey's current design more or the one where you could say her bikini bottom underwear thing 😭. Omocat has good taste perhaps. Very interesting video overall, beat the game recently
@@Alberto2 I can already imagine the SS commander's rage during a phone conversation. "...You're telling me, that we lost entire platoons to a bunch of underaged boyscout postal workers, despite our repeated attacks by several infantry and police assault forces, supported by armored cars and light artillery... YET YOU STILL CAN'T TAKE A DAMN POST OFFICE?!" *_"Uh, yes sir... Even with the light artillery it wasn't possible."_* "...SCHEISSE! Change of tactics! Just circle around and try to find a way inside! I'm bringing in heavier artillery support, so make it count this time!" *_"And... if this doesn't work, herr Kommandant?"_* "Then i, will deal with them from under their ass." *_"...Jawohl!"_* Next failed attack later, followed by a sapper mine explosion placed under the building and a long silence, they charge in... only to encounter dozens of booby traps left behind by the defenders, while suffering even more casualties as a result, and the young postmen to be found nowhere in sight, likely already evacuated a while ago. Even worse, the basement was pumped full of flammable gasoline. As soon as troops swing open the door to clear it out using a hand grenade, a sticky fire spreads out across the lower floors of the building, cooking some inside as it ensues and forcing the remainder to run out. It didn't help the Germans had flamethrowers. A very terrifying fate for occupiers of a country. An alternative version of this would be them managing to hold the office long enough for relief from the Polish Pomeranian Army to arrive, consisting of numerous 7TP tanks, C4P half-tracks with storm units and PZInż 621 trucks carrying some relief aid and medical supplies for the defenders. The distant sounds of battle echoing ever closer with each assault repelled and magazine expended. Another scenario for the Sunny, Kel, Aubrey, Hero and Basil gang would be to find themselves right at the scene of parachute landings before D-Day, to capture and hold Pegasus Bridge, like in the old 2000's-Era game Call of Duty. "Never Back Down" and "Star Sky" by "Two Steps From Hell" are definitely the perfect theme songs for this... I would love to see it as a real thing.
9 YEARS. to make a game that has changed millions around the globe.
right, i only just played the game last week and it was amazing 😭 soo much details and so well done
even with spoilers this game is amazing
Fr. I got spoiled up until after last resort. Good thing i didnt watch anything beyond that@@Ghostdud
