FINDING THE HUSK?! A DEVELOPER COMMITTED SUICIDE AFTER MAKING THE GAME?! || Shipwrecked 64 ||
In Today's video, I played Shipwrecked 64. So, we continued where we left off with that game. After counting the correct things and trying to input the code in the keypad, it didn't work. So, I was lost immediately after starting the episode. After trying the hidden keypad upstairs, I eventually gave up and looked up a guide. Apparently, you had to take the code, which gave you the hint to count the things in sector one. Pick the button clue, grab the code that you got from counting, as well as the date that the flesh mass was formed in 1995, open up the game that was downloaded from the Codebreak website, put in all the things, and you'll get the date 1917, as well as some lore about Rex, and original creator of Bucky and his friends. It also said the bunny was actually the first creation of Rex, but he had sold it off to another company. After getting past the first area of the middle of Layer 4, we got to the next area, explored, and found a video about fishes, published on March 12th, 1960. Because they didn't work on the second keypad. I went to the downloaded game and tried to enter the code. But I accidentally fell into the void. That made a video appear that repeated the same thing as the camera panned down. I couldn't find anything in the downloaded game, so I returned to the original. After trying to figure out what to do but failing, I researched, and on March 12th, 1960, Dr. Seuss published a book called Fish. Because the rhyme is 1 Fish 2 Fish RED fish BLUE fish, which means a part of the code is 83, since Layer 3's, the last part, red was 8 and blue was 3. Then, we add 12th from March 12th to the code, and it's 1283. That answer is one of the most ARG-type things and one of the coolest. After inputting the code and going through the doorway, THE BUNNY WAS PATENTLY WAITING FOR ME. After escaping from him and reading a note saying we know what comes after, we go through a door and wind up in a flesh tunnel. In this tunnel, Bucky says we're safe, and we also find a tape from Mark, saying he'll find an answer to the game studio's laziness. Persisting through, we find a heart and a door. Going through the door, we wind up ON THE FREAKING MAIN MENU. After getting away, we see a video of someone finding a flesh monster in multiple areas. The best I can describe it is a melty Scarecrow. The crow jumpscares us and tells us that the 4 are a part of him, the Husk. And that they call out to him for reasons. He then tells me to find him, to prove our worth. If we do so, we'll be given every detail of what happened in 1997, what went wrong. We spawn into the red-hued island, trying to find the Husk, while every enemy from Bucky to the rabbit chases us down. After locating him 11 times, he shows us a final dialogue between Mark, the head of the animation studio, and Connor, the head of the development studio. The Husk, Walter, Giovanni, Olivie, and the Rabbit fade in, and Mark expresses his dissatisfaction with the game. Connor says this is the best technology in the world, but Mark doesn't like it and is firing the developers. Connor says it's because of his wife and her ailments, and Lisa tries to stop the fighting between the two. Mark says that they're done and to not contact him again, and he leaves. We then cut to a depressed Bucky, who jumps out of a balcony. Apparently, Bucky was a representation of Connor, WHO COMMITTED SUICIDE SHORTLY AFTER THAT DIALOGUE AND PUT THE THINGS THAT WERE IN THE GAME PURPOSEFULLY TO EXPOSE THE ANIMATION STUDIO, AND THAT WAS THE REASON IT WAS PULLED FROM SHELVES. Because it was pulled from, shelves so quickly;, and only a few copies were sold, we were the first people in a long time to see what was in it. After that, the 4 fade into a white background as Patrick Thomas, the son of Conner Thomas, says that Connor was a great man and he'll be missed dearly. Patrick had put the things inside the game, as his father had asked him, and (most likely) finished the game (at least, that is what the video I watched told me after playing the game). After that, we got the extras, and I was lost about the realness of this game. Of course, this is an ARG, meaning that this didn't happen in real life, but I was so lost and confused that I thought the events actually happened. I was horrified. After talking for a while, I ended the episode with the promise of another one. Yeah, that ending gave me goosebumps and was worth the lack of sleep the past few days.
