      She was so hungry that she just couldn't differentiate between gnome and sausage anymore. She wasn't "evil". Hunger, and I mean REAL hunger that none of you have ever experienced, can drive you insane. The only thing you want is food, no matter what food.
      Humans are known to become cannibals in such situations.

      Very true, and on top of that, some develop what's known as wendigo psychosis. Which is mostly seen when people didn't have enough food to last the winter and turned to cannibalism, and wendigo psychosis causes them to still crave flesh even when food is readily available.

    i feel like the cycle goes as follows: people go to The maw to eat, they get fattened up and the mistress eats their souls, she then uses the bodies as food for more customers to eat and its just a cycle of consumption. i feel like the world in the game is messed up from greed and over eating (ie: obesity) so maybe sending people to die on this submarine and turned into food is a way to solve that problem?

    _They offered only what was needed... yet we took what we wanted_
    This experience was a powerful visual commentary on gluttony. The girl and rest of her kind starve and only eat when they absolutely must. Then were shown the contrast of her pursuers gorging themselves on ludicrous amounts of food, more then they'll ever need. This essentially sets up the game's opposing ideologies.
    The girls journey in itself is a dark downwards spiral, as each time she has to consume to live the object of consumption gradually becomes worse. The girl slowly "'becomes" the very thing she's been trying to escape, gluttony.
    The Mistress battle was an important turning point, the mirrors literally and symbolically representing self-reflection. When the girl finally feeds upon the Mistress she becomes shrouded in her darkness, literally becoming a "little nightmare". It's here where the girl realizes... how is she now any different?, any better then the gluttons around her? Finally she decides to simply end it all, using her new found powers to end the lives of every glutton she passes moving into the light.
    However another interpretation this could be that there was no realization and the girl, embracing the dark power of gluttony she's obtained, had chosen to consume far more. Her escape into the outside an ominous omen to the chaos and mass consumption she'll soon unleash unto the world.
    The music, gameplay, and visual's synergism told the story in both a vague yet clear way, and so long as they continue to be original and interesting, I hope more of these interpretive adventure games come out in the future!

      I like your different interpretations of the ending: Either become an anti-hero against the gluttons who prey on the weak, or become one of the gluttons herself. That would be an interesting thing for a fanfiction writer to ponder.BTW, is it just me, or is there a strong BioShock vibe coming off this game? The "Constants and Variables" of BioShock Infinite seem to be present alongside the underwater theme and the creepy, mysterious horrors.

    • @GDCorsa
      @GDCorsa 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I completely agree with your point of view. One thing that got me instantly thinking she had become a "glutton" was when she ate the nome that was offering her a sausage, i was pissed at that. But it's weird how that happened before the battle...

  • @spacealien3073
    @spacealien3073 7 ปีที่แล้ว +307

    Tbh a lot of games that that use gluttony and greed as a theme thing come off as kinda... pompous but I think this one just seems to be using it as a motivating factor for the characters which is nice. I can't even be sad by the ending because technically its a good ending as kinda messed up as it is. I mean... you went to this place to eat while struggling to not be eaten and now you're the top of the food chain, that's a victory in my book!
    So yeah very good short creepy game with a fantastic art direction. I really enjoyed it.

      I was questioning that, they seem to starve themselves and eat all at once in this world, which Manly mentioned. When you are starving you act on impulse and not rationality. This is a guess but in her starved state she saw 2 pieces or meat the cold sausage and the warm gnome. She choose the warmer meat.

      @robbieking4070 7 ปีที่แล้ว +95

      THE FOOD IS PEOPLE! (soylent green joke) The janitor kills the abducted children and sends them to the chefs as ingredients. Six likely figured this out and that fact coupled together with her starvation forced her to choose the gnome over the human sausage.

    primagames said it best, "The Maw is essentially a prison and a resort for the rich and glutinous. The children on board are taken from their homes and placed in the bottom of the ship, which serves as a prison. At first the children are given beds and toys to play with. However, as they grow and start to gain weight, they are placed in cages and the chefs in the kitchen prepare the children to be served to the guests as food. Your character in Little Nightmares is a 9-year-old girl named Six. She is seemingly the daughter of the Lady, who is the geisha-like individual who seems to be in charge of the Maw. Most theories point to Six being the Lady’s daughter who is cast down to the prison with the other children when the Lady realizes Six is more beautiful than she is. Several portraits of Six can be found near the Lady’s residence. The Lady is obsessed with beauty, but smashes every mirror in her presence because she can’t stand to look at herself. It’s assumed that the Lady is never satisfied with how she looks, and even wears a geisha mask to cover her face, despite breaking every mirror around. Only one mirror remains in the upper levels of the Maw, and the Lady keeps it locked away so no one can get to it.
    The Lady also has the power to drain people of their life force. It’s theorized that she runs the Maw in an attempt to fatten up the guests so she can eventually drain their life force and take it for her own immortality. When Six uses the mirror and light to knock the Lady unconscious, she devours her to take this power as her own, then uses it on the guests as she makes her way out of the Maw."

Plus the food reminds me of no face being fed and the mc's parents stuffing their face at the beginning of the movie :0

    My theory was that the creature was a brownie, because of their height and all the shoes. A brownie is European folklore, fae kind of thing. Normally out of sight they keep your house safe and help around the house in exchange for an offering of food. If you don't feed them they'll cause huge trouble for you. If you feed them they won't/can't take your other food and eat it.
    My thought was the brownie was displaced for some reason, along with the other creatures. (I was thinking ww2 because some of the shoe imagery reminded me of it.)
    With this logic as soon as the boy offered the brownie food she couldn't take any of the food on the ship anymore, bound by the laws of the fae. Thus couldn't take the sausage and had to eat the gnome instead. And later when they gained the power they cleared the "house" of enemies/ undesirable spirits.
    Did get the spirited away vibe which I liked a lot.

    I wonder if there's a culture/race aspect to this too, since the Lady has an east asian look for the guest area, but then everything else is either western or industrial. Something like putting up one's culture for consumption by tourists, and being reduced to a mere aesthetic because of that.
    i got bored by the greed = fat + ugly thing really fast, but it's an interesting enough game. the animation of the characters is really good, made me think of stop animation along the lines of coraline.

    I really do love how you slowly watch your character devolve through her consumption. She starts out being offered some bread from a kind child and it gives you the sense that your character is just as sentient and deserving of respect as that kid. In sharp contrast to this, the "humans" hunting you are warped, dim-witted and primal monsters that make for obvious bad guys.
    The next time she has to eat, she is squatting inside a cage and gnawing on floor scraps before being trapped in a cage like an animal. Its vaguely dehumanizing.
    By the third time, she has moved on to eating live prey. Sure, it was dying anyway and she was desperate but in the end she was still eating it raw. (it was here that i predicted where this would go.)
    when she eats the gnome offering her the sausage, she flips the first encounter with the bread offered by the child, on its head. There was no need for her to do that and I love the stark contrast it creates between who you thought your character was and who she really is/what shes become. She is needlessly consuming just like her enemies.The only question left is how can it get any worse from here on out?
    By becoming the same animalistic creature that hunted you, of course!
    Makes you wonder if they hunted her so desperately in part because they knew she was a threat.
    Also gotta love that last little scene where she escapes outside but is still stranded on the glutton ship. She cannot escape the cycle.
    all in all i really loved this one. the atmosphere and puzzles were great and I loved the overall theme of gluttony.

    Yeah, after watching My Little Nightmares 2, the ending makes more sense.
    Six (protagonist's name), being a souless husk, was starving, but not for food, but for souls of others.
    At "secret ending" (of MLN2) we've discovered that Six has learned about Lady's ship from advertising poster (or smth) and she instinctively knew that the hunger can be sustained only there. Why did she get that direction from her former soul (black shadowey thing) though? Maybe she thought that consuming others' souls will end her nightmares/will put her in rest?
    Also what role was that eye symbol playing? What are those grotesque (extra thicc) human-looking monsters? Were they humans before those weird nightmarish event or were they only dolls/golems/servants of the One responsible for this nightmare? Is this a nightmare at all or everything was real all along?

    _A little satire_
    Lampooning society's conspicuous consumption of everything until nothing is left but eating each other. Dog eat dog. We are the monsters... even a cute little girl.
    I've read people complaining that this game costs too much for how short it is. Well, you get what you pay for. In this case, you not only got great art, but lighting, pacing, interesting puzzles, a cute MC that you rooted for even after she fed on the gnome, NO NOTES!, no rambling on with vague overdone symbolism, & an excellent musical score. It maintained a tension & feeling of dread throughout. Imo, the game is worth it.

    • @CoolMagmar
      @CoolMagmar 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      In my country for some reason this game is 80 bucks, when Inside that have the same price in the USA Steam is 37 here, and even Inside that is longer people complain about the price, I too think is a little expensive like I think 10 to 15 dollars was the best price for this types of game, more than that I find that is better to wait to a price drop or a sale.

    • @NaturalFlirtGamer
      @NaturalFlirtGamer 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      +JakJak Wow!!! That is a HUGE price!! Yeah for that money anywhere you live, you want a bit more to the game. But I'm comparing this 20 dollar game to games that might seem like a deal for 7 or 10 dollars that have no great qualities at all - especially horror games. \(^w^*)

    • @grimreaper3882
      @grimreaper3882 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Vague overdone symbolism? So you mean exactly what this game is? It's something that has been done way to much already and I personally am fed up with this. It's a bloody excuse to not make up a story and just put somewhat interesting gameplay concepts togeder.
      "Hey, look at this. This is a bad thing. Oh, too bad. You are also a part of it". That is the story of all of these games.
      Also, what music score exactly? There is barely anything you can call music in this with the exception for the ending. 90% of it was environmental ambiance.

    • @NaturalFlirtGamer
      @NaturalFlirtGamer 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      +Grim Reaper Actually, this game is pretty much straightforward "Escape the Ship". It has creepy characters. You weren't expected to put together a story, unless you went waaaay outta your way to do so, interpreting the gnomes/Lady/mirrors, etc. It's obviously about gluttony as a 'theme' - they're all eating.
      Vague symbolism has been in so many rpgmaker games within the past year or so that I frankly don't even want to list because it gets nauseating. "Wonderful art" accompanied by ZERO story unless you actively make one up. Not even a 'theme'. Or, not an rpgmaker game, but one using the Abandoned Manor Megapack for Unity where you "investigate" or "escape". :/
      The OST for this game is comprised of more than creaks, groans, & free music or music that causes copyright ID strikes. I'm not going to define what a _song_ is - but say that the game delivered thematically different osts for different areas, the MC had her own theme different from the title track, & there is one other I hummed to myself that's a waltz. Those are in addition to the BGM with SFX that plays over areas. That is a musical score.
      Also you can still have a fantastic experience playing a game that only lasts 3 hours or so - the *best* example I can think of off the top of my head was Outlast Whistleblower. It's not the length of a game - it's the experience you get from it while you play it. There's also a game like No Man's Sky for example - as far as I know, it's pretty long. Did that make it good & worth its price tag? A game's length doesn't dictate whether it's good or not or worth the price or not. Your wallet dictates whether you want to pay $$ for games. I'm not one of the devs of the game, nor do I know them, or work for them, or any company affiliated with them... I just happened to like the game.

    • @grimreaper3882
      @grimreaper3882 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      And here we have a perfect example of what is also known as a political speech. Talking for 3 hours while saying pretty much nothing.
      Also, what's up with the game length? Because I never mentioned anything about that.
      PS: Outlast Whistleblower was a dlc, not the full game.

  • @pallas9113
    @pallas9113 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    My impression/theory is that the life energy / soul is what Six has actually been craving, same reason as why, in-universe, the Guests would throw away their mountains of meat to come chase after Six. She was probably too starved out of her mind to simply stave off the hunger with the sausage.

      Less than 3 hours for a non rushed playthrough. 3 to 4 if you get really stuck at some parts.

    After the credits roll, there is that floating island with Six standing outside. But I remember when running over pipes or something, you see people boarding a boat. I wonder if this world was flooded, and that is why there is a food shortage. But I wonder how the world the character moves about in functions; like, is that island really the ship I assumed they were on the whole time? If so, how did Six escape to this island-looking thing? These are the things I wonder. :P

    In the beginning of the game, there was the headmistress there, immediately showing who the main boss will be, but I never suspected it would end the way it did. What a game, and the horror feels were real. :) My only question is about the Nomes, and if they will escape, now that Six made it out, as we can see the Nome standing there at the open door.
    Keep up the fun games and enjoy what you do, Manly. :) God bless yours and you! :)

All i have to say is that this game has a very unique title in calling it a nighmare it truly was a nightmare. It really reminds me of the book where the wild things are and dream type setting we are in and of course at the end it reminded me of spirited away.

    @LissyWrites 7 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    The consumed becomes the consumer. When pushed to our limits, even the kindest of souls will consume for the sake of survival. I feel the point where Six eats the gnome is where we, the viewers, are supposed to shift our point of view. Yes, there is a loud theme of gluttony that has been pushed onto us from the very beginning. However, there is something else that we've seen from the very beginning: the size of the consumed. Laced throughout this game is a theme of chains, one being the food chain. Six is starved, which explains her stunted growth and emaciated frame. She's so used to not eating that she waits until she is at the point of starvation to consume anything. Everything she has eaten up to the gnome has been weaker and smaller than she is. The gnomes are only slightly less. This whole journey has been her escaping those above her in the food chain, by climbing, and the final straw was escaping those whose only purpose is to consume the small. Tired of being the lowest on the food chain, she climbs it, just as she has climbed everything else, and chooses the gnome over the sausage, which would have been a reasonable choice for her not so long ago. Six is now focused on climbing the food chain. Not to join those who have gluttonized themselves to the top of the food chain, but to overtake them completely. If that means she has to consume to do it, she will. Anything to climb from the bottom of the maw and the food chain.
