    "Farmer Seth Atwood was past eighty when
    He tried to sink that deep well by his door,
    With only Eb to help him bore and bore.
    We laughed, and hoped he’d soon be sane again.
    And yet, instead, young Eb went crazy, too,
    So that they shipped him to the county farm.
    Seth bricked the well-mouth up as tight as glue-
    Then hacked an artery in his gnarled left arm.
    After the funeral we felt bound to get
    Out to that well and rip the bricks away,
    But all we saw were iron hand-holds set
    Down a black hole deeper than we could say.
    And yet we put the bricks back-for we found
    The hole too deep for any line to sound."

    Just a note, this is supposed to be one of YAMES's "secret games" that he makes exclusively for Patreon supporters. They are meant to be short and weird, so he can still keep working on the "Discover My Body" sequel "Discover Our Bodies".

    Not YAMES's strongest work, but I think about Discover my Body and Water Womb World all the time, and I genuinely appreciate any content that comes from this guy.

    • @KnakuanaRka
      @KnakuanaRka 3 ปีที่แล้ว +27

      Yeah, this is a lot weaker than those other two works. The minimal graphics end up making a lot of things incomprehensible (and not in the way you expect from eldritch horror, especially with the glitchy graphics on the final object you pull from the well), the story is a totally disjointed mess with nonsensical pacing that barely links anything together (particularly at 16 minutes, where you get a whole bunch of nonsensical talk with no visuals and suddenly go from trying to measure the depth of the well to helping to awaken the eldritch god that sprouted out of the cat, with little in-between; speaking of which, is it ever explained how the cat got that way?), the “gameplay” is boring as heck (Discover My Body didn’t pretend to have any real gameplay, while Water Womb World was at least somewhat engaging), the phonetic accent and missing punctuation in the dialogue is obnoxious, etc.
      I get that eldritch style horror like this is about leaving most of it to your imagination, but those other two were excellent at giving just enough information at the right time for maximum creepiness; this is just an incomprehensible mess that leaves me more confused than disturbed.

    YAMES: Sir/Ma'am: You've become the go to source of weird and creepy gaming with a WONDERFUL originality in graphics presentation! You've seemingly hit the sweet spot of uncertainty and "oddness"/limited information that creates a fear from the uncertain and instinctive (and thus generates a universal form of creepy horror). Limited information (normally visually based as we are as a species) is always the way to genuine fear as it allows the imagination to take over....genius!

    I was watching this while on the edge of my bed, half asleep, but then I got it. This is when human beings get dragged towards some Lovecraftian entity. Our senses still work but they are stirred by something transdimensional that we were never meant to comprehend. So now our senses are off kilter. Like when you connect old and new technology say a PS5 to a tube from the nineties. You can get something out of it but it will be skewed by the limitations of the receiver. This is what this communicates.

      The visage of the Elder Gods causes insanity because it is juxtaposed with the mundane and normal of everyday life. Here, there is no everyday life. It looks like nothing. I actually can barely figure out what is what so when the "insanity" begins it doesn't even feel like it. A little bit of actual color would have helped tremendously in grounding the well exploration in reality.

      This is aesthetics reflecting Lovecraft's approach of not describing monsters too much, becayse they're undescribable. Not only in the poem the game is based on but in his entire body of work. If Lovecraft was making a game, this is how he'd probably go about it. Shadow of the comet tried to portray monsters in a stereotypical way with white eyes and sharp teeth and it fell flat.

      @@AntipaladinPedigri Honestly, I have to agree with Lucis in that I don't think it worked - I just finished it and the visuals didn't really register anything with me. There's a very fine line between horrific insinuation and just arbitrary shapes, and I think it fell on the side of arbitrary for me.
      I think it would really have helped if there was a much clearer distinction between things that we understood and the elements that weren't to be - the cat neither blended in with the horrific aspect nor was really distinct visually from it, it just kind of looked like a sock with a pentagram sticker cut out of it. The same with our well-delving friend, I kind of expected to see fleeting elements of his body, or at least some sort of vague outline of what used to be a skeleton, but it kind of just looked like a circle that had two arbitrary sectors wiggling in a way that didn't resemble what a human could look like to me (especially with the anatomical references, I expected something a lot more like Discover My Body)
      I think the part where this fell short was that it didn't really describe the indescribable or the describable, and went much too far in the direction of obfuscation.

      Each to their own. If I were to reflect the insanity constantly referenced by by the story and which is the foundation block of Lovecraft's writing, I would blur the line between what is actually there and what your broken mind tells you there is. The effect of a stroke photo where everything seems familiar but actually can't be identified fits the theme.

    Huh. I was wondering what YAMES was doing after discovering that the _Applesauce Apartments_ game wasn't something he (?) did. I am unsure what I think about this one as of yet, especially visually, since it seems less polished than other games by YAMES, and I don't know how intentional that was (or if I agree with it even if it was intentional). All I know is that the sound design is really good and that it was interesting to learn that "immanentize" is actually a word.
    That poor cat though. The pentagram collar certainly didn't protect it.

    • @MalfunctionWhocares

      "Less polished" is probably intentional, cause this is meant to be the first in a series of short and simple games for people to play while he works on larger projects. Said larger projects currently include "Discover Our Bodies", a sequel to "Discover My Body", and a point and click game called "Family Vacation".

      i think it's intentionally meant to obscure as much detail as possible while still having a somewhat legible story. i think it's meant to be interpretive, but what i got was the following:
      -two family members are entranced by some sort of eldritch consciousness, they are then instructed or inspired to build a well which then either is a gateway to whatever place holds the eldritch consciousness, or the well itself holds it.
      -second family member kills the first, attempts to use their body as a vessel for the eldritch god. snaps out of it at some point. doesn't use the body as a vessel & bricks up the well to prevent the plan from being furthered.
      -a pastor de-escalates situation(?), sends second family member upstate. after the funeral, two people get the job, under the pastor's instruction, to retrieve things inside of the house for the family's next of kin.
      -other person suspects that there'll be valuables in the bottom of the well, coerces player character to assist in attempting to retrieve them. other person also has a cat.
      -as they attempt to gauge the depth of the well before heading in in-person, they're either 1. getting snagged on things, or 2. the entity in the well is rejecting further progress. the first item they get snagged on is extremely difficult to make out, but by the description the other person gives, it's either 1. a root, 2. just "a piece of wood" in an odd shape, 3. some sort of hand-carved wooden effigy. this specific one seems unimportant.
      -second object pulled up is an idol of the entity. back of it had an eye affixed to it. uncertain what exactly it did, my random eyes-closed dart board throws are 1. was meant to be a literal vessel of sight for the entity, 2. marked the other person to be a vessel, or 3. made the player character immune/an accomplice/something. a "toothed worm" bites the other person, marking/inseminating them as the vessel for the eldritch being, and either changing their ability to perceive things or beginning their metamorphosis. after pulling this up, the cat "disappears", having fallen down - or was pulled down - the well while the two human characters were transfixed by the idol.
      -other person begins acting in the interests of the eldritch thing, comments on the quality of the dirt (as in, where the being would be summoned/born from), perceives the next object entirely differently than the player character
      -next object is described by the player character as "just a rock". graphical fidelity makes it hard to discern anything in particular. other person sees that it's a "womb, filling with unborn or infantile slugs", akin to the way the eldritch thing looks at the end of the story. other person mentions that it's beautiful, specifically that it reminds him of the beauty of childbirth (as themed further). calls himself "just a worm", refers to the eldritch entity as "she". either means that the being wants to instill the fact that the other person (or maybe humans/other life forms in general) are below them/lower life forms, or referring to it more literally as in the "toothed worms" that are seen twice which appear to do the bidding/further the plans of the being
      -"cat" returns, actually a different entity infested by said toothed worms. other person comments on "wanting to lay in a deep dark hole" as in to incubate themselves for metamorphosis/birthing of the entity
      -next object is the corpse(? it's not moving, at least) of the actual cat. other person comes to a realization about that. upon mentioning this to the cat, it transforms. either the cat-impersonator knocks you out, or the game just cuts to later on.
      -i cannot discern what the pastor is saying in many scenarios without googling like, at least a word per text box. apologies, but i think it's esoteric on purpose. in essentiality, the pastor intended to assist with the entity's birth (it's unknown if he was entranced at some point after helping the second family member or if this was always the intention), likely intending himself to be the incubator originally, and envies the other person because of this. at this stage, the other person has entirely become a meat cocoon/womb for the eldritch entity and has fully transformed.
      -mimicking prior gameplay, the pastor... does, something? while you pull on what is highly likely to be an umbilical cord to birth the entity. after a couple tries, you successfully force its birth, and its form is similar to that of a slug.
      i may be incorrect about some things
