6 Secrets In BONELAB vr

There are many secrets and tricks in Bonelab. There's secret avatars to unlock, dev mode to enable, and weird doors hidden behind cubes. Lets take a look at these bonelab secrets and more.

[@SephStuff_]

The stair and box at 8:50 is a reference to a movie called the Truman show, which is basically about a simulated reality. The invisible box at the top of the stairs is actually a door to reality.

[@very_real]

Sounds good to me

[@bradprath9354]

Just saw another video where the guy was able to get in, and I think its gonna be more than that, its just unfinished

"See, now you can get out of my swamp."

[@3FoxIsntBad]

For the keycard atop the crablet statue on tuscany, its used for the door at the very back of the map behind the house, you can also find the m1 garand in the room it opens up to.

[@Spanish_or_vanish_boi]

Oh, I just used the nimbus gun to no-clip in

[@Bread_37]

I think this was before that update

[@Sh3kn.skyline.]

m1 garand!?!

[@matthewjohnson2871]

Idk why bonelab put Tuscany in the game but it was one of the OG VR experiences back in the Google cardboard days. I remember loading it up for the first time and wandering around in 3DOF. At the time it seemed so magical and immersive

[@very_real]

That's cool. It may be a refrence to old vr like that

[@matthewduda3605]

Yeah, i loved it.

[@lemonsquidge3134]

It was one of the favorite maps from Boneworks, they added it In because of that

[@ne0dynamic]

I believe the secret melon at the terrible moon map is actually a reference to melon belly, which is basically the beer of this world. It’s what gives Nullbodies sentience (I think).

[@ne0dynamic]

You are seriously underrated though, this is great content.

[@very_real]

Thank yoy

[@Pill_Box]

It's kinda like that the melon belly is what the null body's eat and how they gained sentience

[@antonberkbigler5759]

That’s not what nullbodies are, nullbodies are a slave race created by MythOS’s core AI for menial labor and the construction of the MythOS City. Under normal circumstances they are (purportedly) mindless/nonsentient, however nullbodies that consume Melon Belly will gain sentience and a will of their own. Melon Belly is made by fermenting melons with void energy for a functionally infinite amount of time inside of time pods, and is produced by lava gang specifically as an illicit export to the nullbodies for a variety of reasons. Lava gang may receive smuggled Myth data or some labor of their own in exchange for the Melon Belly, and on top of that it sows chaos and disarray within MythOS City and Monogon.

[@ne0dynamic]

@@antonberkbigler5759 Huh. Interesting. Now the real question is, why are there empty bottles littered around the map?

[@Theedgyscoutmain]

the green smiley face could be a reference to the logo of polycount, polycount being a website for 3d modelers to post their portfolios/network/learn how to 3d model

[@Theedgyscoutmain]

it's a fairly common thing for game devs to hide the polycount logo somewhere in their games

[@very_real]

Oh yeah that could be it

[@somenameiguess]

10:53 The crablet boxes in the game are weird, what it seems like is when you brake it open it has a 50/50 chances of having a crablet inside it or having nothing.

[@very_real]

I have noticed that ones I remember having crablets don't on later playthroughs. Very weird so maybe correct on that

[@americanhuman1848]

i dont really know because from my experience in boneworks i now know to not trip on the crablet boxes and break them like i used to

[@somenameiguess]

@@very_real Ok so I did some in-game testing, and on Tuscany the crablet boxes seem to be a mystery for now as no crablets spawn from them nor have a purpose that we know of. I did find some other things though, In the house were you start you can find yet another crablet boxes on the ceilings foundation planks. I also found that if you flip the ammo machine ( or whatever it's called ) on the bottom you'll find ( 2/18/22 R.Y.E) and 38 tallie marks. Not sure what this means and im not sure if we'll know any time soon.

[@Bread_37]

I think the times where it spawns nothing it’s meant to spawn the headset from boneworks but since it’s not in the game it spawns nothing

[@Pro_Bad_Influence]

The first one isn't a secret, it tells you what it's for in the body mall.

[@collingraham183]

Do you know how to unlock the arm avatar thing?

[@MarkPronkin]

@@collingraham183 it's unlocks in the story line. Continue playing the game and you will get it.

[@collingraham183]

@@MarkPronkin ok thanks

[@Bread_37]

It never says that

[@Pro_Bad_Influence]

@@Bread_37 click the favorites tab at the top top of the screen, if you don’t have the body log already in the slot it says it in big bold letters.

[@grimghost6668]

The hidden doorway can be opened with that card he found on the statue and it gives you a capsule.

[@dolcebambina84]

The capsule is regular skeleton you might have skin but this is how get skeleton npc

[@RobloxGamer6422]

No it's the M1 Grand

[@generaljellyfish114]

I believe the invisible stairs are a reference to the ending of The Truman Show

[@jacobschauerte7901]

8:50 “And in case I don’t see you, good morning good evening and good night.” -Truman.

[@xdkokyRUST]

"as you can see, now you can get out of my swamp" 😂😂

[@purpleangel1784]

9:38 its a reference to the truman show where basically a baby was kidnapped at birth and put inside of this live action TV show for his entire life and he never knew, but at the end of the movie he discovers it was all a lie and escapes through a staircase just like that one

[@Janti0607]

The void leak in Tuscany was actually in boneworks

[@very_real]

Interesting

[@user-dw8kc4fm6h]

The reason for the stairs, you have to get a key card. It’s also known as the Dev room and you have to put the key card in the slot

[@Games-bl7hm]

For everything which is new, you have to reload first. For example if you find the nimbus gun in the hub, it won't appear inside one of the cupboards as it should. But if you relead the bonelab hub scene it appears. Same is with developer mode.

[@very_real]

Yeah that's a weird thing I've noticed the more I play. Seems like a bug to me but its probably not

[@Bread_37]

You don’t need to collect the spawn gun to access dev tools, all you need is nimbus gun (fly gun) and dev mode on

[@Sentinel_of_the_GFI]

Yeah but it’s broken on quest

[@TheFoxVR18]

The invisible staircase is an actual functioning doorway but the other side doesnt load in until you unlock the door. To unlock the door you use the key card on the crablet statue and there is a key card slot by the invisible door. Note the key card slot is invisible as well so you have to look hard

[@zxnovxYT]

Bro said "you can now get out of my swamp" so calm

[@ImNotFine44]

The custom bodylog list isnt a secret. If you go into the favourites tab, it literally tells you how to do it.

[@incognito3dmodelinganimati668]

Yeah the game has had a lot of criticism since the game requires you to figure things out on your own, I spent a while looking around the lab figuring out what I have to do but it was well worth it! I feel like if they just told you what to do it would take away from the mysterious lab feel to it, but again people are complaining about where they have to go on the moon map when half the spawn room is taken up by a map telling you where to go

[@ImNotFine44]

@@incognito3dmodelinganimati668 exactly. I feel like the people who struggle with the game and complain are not quite there in the head. It requires you think, problem solve and discover. Now they have updated the game so it tells you exactly what to do and completely reworked the pillar level so that it was really boringly easy. They couldve made the forced body switch thing work and not annoying by having it so every character can complete it with unique pathways only certain ones can take. As short and heavy it was impossible to complete but they couldve had it so there was a route only short and heavy could take like a small tunnel or a pathway openable with huge strength.

[@incognito3dmodelinganimati668]

@@ImNotFine44 Yeah my only complaint with the boids is it wasn't super explained with the whole avatar switching thing and it being a bit inconsistent sometimes but it being the last avatar level I think it's a really cool way to make you try out all the avatars in one level!

[@strateupgamr7]

BS ITS NOT A SECRET I SEARCHED HIGH AND LOW FOR A KEY

[@ImNotFine44]

@@strateupgamr7 and yet everytime i try and change avatar within 2m of the machine it latches on and i have to walk away to get it to unattach. it also has the tab i mentioned. its just that your oblivious.

[@ArsonCauser88gg]

If you use the card on the invisible door and your NOT on no clip mode, you can press that button and you can go through that door. There are two hidden capsules in there. The skeleton npc and the m1 grand.

[@aedanmcaleavey1771]

This button is actually for a VR achievement. After you press it it gives you a badge called Tuscany. There are more of these in every single sandbox map

That "weird staircase" is actually a reference to the movie "The Truman Show" and it's ending!

[@thewolfstu]

Delving slowly into chaos and madness from the weirdness of Tuscany is kinda funny. lol

[@very_real]

I tend to fall into madness a lot. Probably should get myself checked

[@thewolfstu]

@@very_real Ay, Fam, Same. Lmao

[@dev_ello5792]

The little ball thing at 6:18 to me looked like a testing object, They way that you hold it and the fact that you cant force grab it makes it seem like it was one of the first things added to the game. Which could also mean the moon was the first level created.

[@very_real]

There's other things you can't forcegrab tho such as the milk crates. I suppose it could have been a test object tho

[@stephanieburns963]

When the dead room is that little door, you need the key card to access it properly

[@ShadowSnipe88]

You don’t need dev mode to use the tools in any level you just need both of the tools. Or at least that’s my experience.

[@swarmer7208]

The secret on the moon, I climbed up using a mix of the light avatar and the tall avatar, it is possible to get up without clipgun Edit: I used those gray ropes to climb up, if you are wondering

[@very_real]

The nimbus gun is just easier

[@swarmer7208]

@@very_real i just didnt have it unlocked yet, thats why lol

[@TheStupidRuski]

9:05 That is a reference to the 1990s movie. The Truman show where this man grows up in a simulation and then realizes that hes been inside of a large dome and a reality TV show for 30. Some years and at the very end of the movie he discovere A small rectangular door in staircase just like the one you found in the video in the ocean. That allows allows him out and eventually into the real world

[@coolwaff1e]

i think the statue is a refrence to the first game where yo ucan find the same statue around a certain level

[@very_real]

Hmmm perhaps

[@Kittymeow13]

Nice and thx

[@very_real]

You're welcome

[@HerrscherPuppet]

I got to the top of the space tower for the first time (when you’re stuck as the cat) by summoning the board-tape gun and building a ladder to climb up. I actually thought the next avatar was up there because I didn’t read the map right. But hey I got the gruber there. Favorite pistol aside from that beretta with the laser sight

[@very_real]

I like that gun too. Also good idea. When I played through the first time I didn't have the board gun unlocked sadly but that is very clever

[@koolkatt3308]

I climbed the cables. With the use of coever slomo you can barely get to the top

[@Intermediatequalitypost]

the first one is quite common sense, the way i found it out was just by going to favorites

[@jonataojoaoestrela5422]

very good man, i love your video, continue to post!

[@very_real]

Thanks. I think I will upload about once a week for now

[@dog4779]

The secret door on the Tuscany I believe you just need to click that small button on the balcony and then it’s just a tall room with an elevator

[@very_real]

That button is unrelated, thanks to the last update the doir now functions when using a key card

[@Anuclear_bomb]

Another secret avatar is the skeleton, in magma gate on one of the the side broken bridges in the lava, there is a steel cage with the avatar underneath

[@very_real]

True

[@user-dw8kc4fm6h]

the reason why the cube is in the level is because you have to find the key card and it’s also known as the dev room there’s one in all the levels

[@Anthonyg5005]

2:59 it's crazy how much immersed our brains get that you start making noises like if you were actually trying to climb

You should mention the reset instead of switching scenes you can hold the three lines of the quest controller (idk what it is on other controllers)

[@suckonthis5259]

9:37 Now if you press the button you can go in there and it goes into a room with a really tall and incredibly slow elevator
