How To Find All Of Inside’s Hidden Rooms And The Alternate Ending

Inside has 13 hidden rooms and their discovery has the potential to lead to an alternate ending. This walkthrough shows where all the rooms and their lamps are and explains how to unlock the game's other ending.

[@chrisevans212]

That ending could mean that the kid was dead the whole time, like the rest of those zombie things, and by unplugging himself he could finally rest.

[@tazzx7099]

I think it suggests he was being controlled too as he goes limp when he disconnected everything

[@Apopolopis]

he was, there was a mind control thing in the backround with tubes conected to it that lead to that plug that he unplugged

[@Emstersdoodles]

Honestly, I kinda hated both endings.

[@VXT98]

same they doesnt explain anything

[@VXT98]

Bill Nye it doesn't explain what is happening why it's happening

[@mitapramaisela7696]

mee too

[@swamdono]

The first ending does make sense. You just have to figure out what all of what you (the kid) did means. [SPOILER ALERT] IMO, you're trying to stop the mind control. The kid seems to know where he's going (straight to the labs) and what he's going to find there. You go to unplug the overmind but it absorbs you. Earlier in the story you get the permanent mind control power from the helmet thing that came off. It seemed to me like it had lasting effects because after that, you can still control the goons without the helmet. Anyway, this enables you to control the overmind, rather than becoming part of the collective (I think this may be why certain workers 'help' you do stuff. You're passively controlling them). So you continue to do what you came to do... kill the overmind.

[@lucielafai]

OMG IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!

[@mikiedavey4040]

To make life easy, the 3 way switch pattern is u,u,r,l,r,r,r u,u,u,r,l,l,l

[@swans184]

Who on earth figured this out the first time?

[@PearlKarina15]

+Connor Swanson omg I thought about the same thing but maybe the ones who created it said it or something

[@nhanphamthanh9572]

It's about the tones of music in parts (21:26) and the tones of controller in front of the door under the corn field are same

[@edweb]

Mikie Davey thank you 👍

[@stefano19827]

my theory is that the devs are actually breaking the 4th wall , the "meatball" is actually a representation of the devs team that at the end of the game are taking their deserved sunbathing rest at some beach somewhere the faceless kid is the player , and if the player go for the alternative ending he's a small percentage of actual players who will go for such complicate and time consuming endeavor to find such hidden ending . due to the fact that most likely that kind of player is 1% of the actual players who bought the game , make sense that the ending would be no sunbathing and earned vacations for the devs

[@ragaetsenna2852]

Yeah this is legit

[@superkitteh9141]

The ending scene is a trick. It was manufactured by the corporation

[@daxiaqingliubu]

Wow!

[@vytautaszygelis1106]

Wow. BIG necro here (sorry), but its not that complicated. Just explore as you go, and you find the orbs mostly easily. The only more complicated thing seems the sequence for the door

[@sncrlysoobin2033]

The ending of this video... Hmmm, I think the person who was plugged to the controlling device is supposed to be the player itself, cuz as soon as the boy pulled the the electric thing, the device shut down and the boy somewhat died (?) and the screen turned black.

[@mrdontknow20]

The guy who died after the boy pulled out the thing is representing us as the player (controler) of the boy i think?

[@sncrlysoobin2033]

+Mrdontknow agung mhm

[@lisasimpson8895]

that actually sounds plausible. in the original ending, the player can no longer control the "meatball" once it breaks free from the labs facility. so i guess the purpose of the game is to be set free from the player, all along. so you beat the game when you can't control the character anymore no matter the ending version you get.

[@archiiclassee8597]

ok then why they shoot the kid when he try to escape , are they represented as the creator of the game who want to let people play their game ?

[@joeanjr]

+Cristiane dos Santos Costa but that ending is also made by the scientists. first they build the smaller version.. and make the bigger version.. the title of the game is "inside", what i mean is if you see the ending that "meatball" was "outside" but that "outside" is still "inside".

[@Ectomotive]

You know what? I think that sometimes, "disappointing" endings are saying how hard work doesn't always bear fruit, or you don't always get rewarded, despite your efforts. Or sometimes, satisfaction isn't guaranteed (despite the commercial products), or end the way that you want it to, it just is. It exists, no matter what you do, and no matter what you think. No matter how much you hate it, loathe it, despise is, it's still there. Indifferent. Apathetic. Non-feeling. It's almost like, even if YOU control others, doesn't mean that you're not controlled either.

[@AGrayPhantom]

So I spent money on a game that has an ending that can be interpreted as, "Fuck you, life's not fair."? Fuck that! (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

[@Ectomotive]

AGrayPhantom Genuinely bad endings can't be excused, but some endings can be interpreted differently to find deeper meanings and such. My explanation of sorts doesn't work for everything, but if you can apply it to an ending that disappointed you and it works, great! Since it's a matter of opinion, it's a bit tricky to decide on that. May I ask what the game that you played was?

[@AGrayPhantom]

Hikari Ply "Some endings can be interpreted differently to find deeper meanings..." Yeah, no. You can do that with a story with a proper, literal conclusion _while having metaphors and allegories_. You can do that with any story. However, Inside doesn't provide a satisfying reveal or conclusion. It only provides more mystery without any solutions. "May I ask what the game that you played was?" I don't understand your question. If you're wondering what game I spent money on, it's Inside. We're talking about Inside.

[@nickmorea2918]

+AGrayPhantom I thought it was a VERY satisfying ending. I love games that leave you asking questions. What's the fun in having answers spoon-fed to you? Play it how it is and respect the game for its open-endedness. Life isn't always about the answers. It's about the questions we ask ourselves that define who we really are. I honestly think the game, at its core, is trying to get us to ask the ultimate question: why? No specific why, just why. The why that pervades everything that was, is, or will be. The ending felt perfectly complete to me, BECAUSE of its simple incompletion. If that makes any sense XD

[@AGrayPhantom]

Pax Eris "I thought it was a VERY satisfying ending. I love games that leave you asking questions. What's the fun in having answers spoon-fed to you?" I'm not asking for answers to be spoon-fed to me. I'm asking for any answers at all. Inside fails to provide any narrative structure, aiming for an experience entirely using pathos, but without any logos. "Play it how it is and respect the game for its open-endedness." No, I won't. Where do you get of telling me how to enjoy my games? "Life isn't always about the answers." This isn't life, it's a video game. It's a video game with no proper conclusion. You then go on to this philosophical rant, but it's pointless to quote you at this point. Here's my beef. Any story can be up for interpretation. Any story can be analyzed and seen from different perspectives. In fact, nearly all stories can, but a good story will still provide literary satisfaction. A good story typically follows a natural progression of intro, plot, climax, ending, and denouement. Inside does none of this. It's like a murder mystery that doesn't reveal who the killer is. Inside doesn't even attempt to provide any hint to the "why" we're all asking, which is unbearably disappointing. So unfortunately, no, an incomplete story does nothing for me. But I'm glad you liked it. As for the game itself, it was good. I enjoyed it. It didn't break, glitch, or crash, and the framerate never dropped below 60. Kudos.

[@visgraatje859]

So the secret ending implies that the boy is also mindcontrolled...by the player :D

[@crypticcharmz517]

(My opinion on this monstrosity of the game) So what i'm KIND OF getting from this whole Inside game is that:The player and the blob are connected in some sort of way. The kid is being controlled by the big blob AND the player... The big blob wants to free itself and the kid is just another small mutation to do just that. But the player is the one controlling it all and can also control the kid, so the thing you pull out in this ending is a cable connected to a helmet connected to other cables (Which i see as a way for the player to control the kid, i'll explain in a bit), which are somehow connected to the blob. And when the player makes the kid pull out that cable, he is no longer being controlled by the player and the blob has lost it's connection to both the player and the kid so that kid can not be controlled by either. The screen slowly turns black and the kid is getting on one knee like all the other mindless mutations when you're done using them. So the player was basically pretty much done with using the kid. In the ending where you turn into a blob is a little different. It connects to the kid with the four helmets connected to it's body and since you're just doing what the game is telling you to do, the blob basically has full control. The mermaid was a mutation which had begun breaking glass and ruining the whole base for the exact same reason: The blob wanted to be freed, so it had to have a slave to do it for it. But the mermaid couldn't leave the water so it was stuck in there and the blob had to find another way. When the kid is in the water, the blob takes control of the mermaid too and wants it to help the kid, help the blob. (As to when you die by the mermaid, it's probably help gone wrong) When you're underwater the fish follows you just like the chicks and the 'people'. So it's pretty much Follow The Leader at this point. The kid gets into where the blob is and the people on the other side of the glass are unsure. If you pull off one helmet, they will cheer you on to basically kill the blob. But they don't know that the kid is also just a controlled zombie. So when you get into the blob, it has gotten enough power to break free and BE free. it solves puzzles and the people help it. But not to get out. When you're 'out' you're not out in freedom, it's only what they want you to think. You're in some sort of area, that you can actually see at some point before you're really there. When you fall down building floors and land in this little area surrounded by glass. It's the exact same scenery as when you get out. So you're still stuck and not actually free. The people think they control the blob. The blob and player controls the kid. The kid can control the zombies. The player eventually controls the blob, the zombies, and the kid. The people control the destiny. The player controls the game, and so on... It's all a game of who're the Puppets? And who exactly is the Puppeteer?We want know until it's solved and somebody gets spot on with their theory and the game makers confirm it XD

[@Finnishmanni]

22:18 sounds like starwars :D

[@Freedom-mu2rf]

I think I know the reasoning for the secret ending. The boy at the beginning is being chased because he escaped being plugged in with the control clip. He seems to know about the devices that control the humans. With that being said at first he tries to shut it down so the evil people can't control the experimented people anymore. But sadly during his journey he is implanted by the chip in the water scene with the mermaid. Now I think this is where two routes go. Either he still knows about the device and how to shut it off or we the player have gained full control of the boy and he has lost his memory. So this is why we decide with ending happens. I don't know this is just a theory and also since he is controlled by the chip once he turns off the "hive mind" machines it also kills him because he was controlled.

[@Ectomotive]

Hmm, I personally think that this theory sprinkles some important details into the popular theory of the player controlling the boy! Like...you've just brought light to some factors and details that elaborate on the existing theory! Not totally deviating from the original, but still adding more to it that could change some perspectives and let people see the theory in a new light. I like it!

[@Alex-pp6od]

I got some questions for you. How would the mermaid have attained the mind controlling chip? Was it given to her? Did she find it somewhere? How would she know how to use it? Did anyone explain the function of it to her or does she just know? How would anyone have known that there was some mermaid creature living out there within the deep dark depths of the sea? Was she captured by the scientists of the lab then had a mind control chip put into her brain? So many questions!

[@thzmaniac377]

You can see some dead ones in the labs tho, so yea they where created as well.(mermaids)

[@Nox_Atra]

Seriously how the hell people find those hints?? XD Amazing :D

[@Jayy997]

Every secret in the game is marked by yellow cables. It's actually VERY clearly spelled out.

[@beezleboss2099]

also: people are able to read the scripts of games. thats also the preferred way to find easter eggs in e.g. GTA.

[@brandonisweird7000]

I know this is a stretch, but what if you are playing as the kid from limbo. You end up dying at the end and you are sent to Limbo. The whole time you are running around, YOU are the one controlling the boy but his actual intentions are to find his sister. I'll shut the fuck up now.

[@mariia_17]

I actually like that theory

[@helloguys3420]

The alternate ending just shows how far the evil organisation has gone. It's taken mind control of so many people to the point in which only a COMPUTER, using artificial intelligence, can mimic the true feelings and emotions of a human being (in which this case, was the boy). In some playthroughs, take note of how the boy shows panic and stress is many situations, like trembling breathing or (in the very first part when he is running from guards and dogs) he has the instinct to run away faster to avoid being killed.

[@DijitalPants]

Neat note: The letters on the roof / in the pit near the 5th orb where the music is playing spell REC, a subtle hint to players that the sounds are important. What's more, the "E" from REC is visible again near the 14th orb, to jog the player's memory about that location. It's pretty solid game design. Here's a question: In the background near the 14th orb on the orb status board are some partly washed away letters. What I'm pretty sure of are ENTE_ _O_S_SEQUENCE*. Hint? Meaningless environmental ambiance? I dunno, but to the right of those letters is what looks like a tetris piece, which is the same shape as the door code input near the second orb, so I am guess there is some significance there. Thoughts? *{Weirdly, I'm pretty sure the letter after E is not R}

[@pinetree5184]

3:27 the three letters spell "REC" which may be a reference to record the audio for use with secret ending.

[@Nosci1020]

oh i get it the boy doesnt want to be controlled anymore remember the legit ending near the ocean? they stop moving in the end because the boy is already dead when he destroyed the wooden fence it means that the limit of the mind controlling thing its only my theory so im not 100% sure :D

[@Ediebitty]

I think the humans or the scientists were trying to free the "meat ball" because of the suffering they had put the humans into. So maybe they decided to help it get out to see the sun and let it rest there forever content, Knowing that it is free. Because the "meatball" is made up of humans, so it must have feelings too. So finally being free...They can be happy? Idk

[@nakcabttak]

well they were not technically humans, more like mindless bodies made through science. It actually did not seem like the scientists truly cared about the 'meatball' due to them sitting in a room watching him try to reach a box and then dropping him in a hole. If they wanted it to rest they could have just showed the way out to the sun right?

[@Ediebitty]

nakcabttak Maybe It was just all staged, There Might have been a reason, But I dunno

[@panda_life9015]

+Xia The Galaxian they lured the "meatball into a hole In the water so that it wouldn't get out

[@davidzetterlund538]

+Xia The Galaxian Hes still in the lab in the normal ending, you see them looking at an exhibit of the exact spot of the ending earlier when youre falling through floors as the blob. this mean the scientists wanted the boy to become the blob and everything was planned since the chip was planted in the boy i think

[@everettvonscott]

I've only come across a few so far but I actually thought they were part of the game/story. I didn't know it was just secret room type stuff.

[@trueplayer49]

I have a theory as well. I'll start with the humans those humans in this story planned everything down to the very last drop. Hence why you see a perfect copy of the game's primary ending location when the blob kid crashes through the floor. Now to attach to that theory if you actually look for the secrets that you destroy i think they are extenders of the kid's headset so he can operate properly without fail. Basically because as you can see in the alternate ending he is being controlled by a computer which most likely has a set program which i think why his headset was hooked up to a computer. they made a program for him to follow that programs operation? get him to the blob fuse with it then get to that ending area. i hope you guys understand me on this. i would love to hear your responses.

[@pirokitsune]

Thank you so much for your video. I love the lack of commentary and the bits you do speak are actually informal vs a "haaaaay guys. Its me." Or a chatter of screaming, cursing and shout outs. One quetion. When you get to the final big orb do you have to backtrack the whole game to the corn field or is there a short cut?

[@caseypuryear]

this game is really good probably the best indie game

[@shakaama]

i don't get why you don't talk, your voice isn't that bad

[@KyleHilliard]

Didn't seem necessary outside of the few explanations, but I appreciate the sentiment!

[@shakaama]

notice my likes, that's feedback for you. people are feening for your sweet sexy voice.

[@dafamsid]

Ayy I watch your videos

[@shakaama]

lol i'm crazy right?

[@iheartbinary]

I think the big blob is the Hivemind, and also the Player. I believe it somehow controls the mind of the boy who we can see sneaking INSIDE the facility. (Even tho it feels as if you are running.) I think the humans try to capture the boy as he is an intruder and does not belong there, as they are clearly conducting experiments on paranormal life. (Extraterrestrial maybe) I don't know why the humans are so excited about the Hivemind, but it seems they have somehow harnessed its ability to mindcontrol other beings as they are using the same technology to control those bodies for the apparent purpose of manual labor. In the normal ending, the boy makes it INSIDE of the Hivemind and then breaks free. Again, it fits with the Hivemind being used as a tool. Perhaps it just wanted to be free from the life it was stuck in. Even tho it dies trying to escape, it seems almost peaceful as there is just silence and nature. The alternate ending seems to be the Hivemind killing itself, unplugging all the cores and finally shutting the whole thing down. The boy seems to die as well, implying he is probably just another corpse being used by the Hivemind.

[@iheartbinary]

Another idea I have is that the boy is infected with one of those worm parasites which maybe allows for a corpse to be mind controlled. (Who knows what it does to living beings, maybe makes them go mad like the pig?) When the blob escapes, perhaps it killed itself on accident from rolling down the hill, and it became out of range of the machine that allows for mind control of the parasites. When the boy pulls the plug, perhaps it shuts off the mind control machine, freeing the blob but losing control of the boy in the process. (We cannot really know what happens.)

[@iheartbinary]

But then there's always the idea that something was controlling the blob that was controlling all the other things, and that by breaking free for whatever reason you left the maximum range of the mind control device, which means the blob goes back to being a corpse, which means if it was controlling the boy, the boy is also out of range. And by shutting down the machine it also shuts down everything on every level of mindcontrolception.

[@Rosabean]

Its like a choice to choose: Free the hive Or kill the hive and lose control of the boy

[@TrisketsCheese]

What was the picture that developed at 1:50. One looked like the blob at the end of the game, the other looks like a house. What's the significance of said house?

[@auniquehandle]

19:44 how the fuck can you know that shit

[@deadlee0b1]

You'll notice that as you get near the post your viewing angle is different, and you can see the yellow wire hanging there.

[@Oracol]

Yeah.... I call bullshit. No way in fucking hell anyone would find that out on their own. I think Game Informer got a little help from Playdead. Or how in the world would you know to play that tune to open the door? Yeah, he explains it...but seriously? No chance in hell anyone would ever figure that out.

[@skiddemon66]

Found it on my own.

[@kunzus5237]

Whenever something blocks my vision in a 2D game I always check it out, that's how I found it xD

[@Oracol]

+kenni krisensen And the door in the cornfield??? You walked that entire area trying to open something??...

[@hazelkabamagh6425]

omg that ending is amazing

[@Unknown-xi6wp]

i didnt get the ending of this one or the other. could u pls help me?

[@softimachine8696]

When the boy unplugged that thing, it shut the power off, and the power to the people that were being controlled, so after the boy does that he goes limp, he was technically being controlled too.

[@Unknown-xi6wp]

oh ok TY Skye that helped a lot!

[@Unknown-xi6wp]

but wht was the other ending about?

[@softimachine8696]

The one with the big human Swedish meatball? I honestly don't know.

[@Chebito710]

The ending is all those little orbs were the mind control things for him and when u pulled that plug it made it to where he wasn't controlled anymore

[@georgeterpsidis8143]

ill die happy if i see a godamn game having a full explained story in these years...

[@LeonSkillsXB]

At 13:59, isn't that kid from LIMBO? I mean, this boy's reflection looks like that kid from Limbo. Or, perhaps, this kid from INSIDE is the same kid from LIMBO.

[@deadshotruby6667]

This is a really odd ending, I don't really have a theory..but at the end, where that human blob is when you do the normal ending, can't you pull a plug instead of pull the things off the human meatball?

[@xblade3blade50]

oh I get I the kid is one of those zombie things and when you do the alternate ending he unplugs the helmet in the back ground which the person in the back ground is basically you in the game and when he unplugs it look at how he sits down just like the other zombies and so yeah that's my guess

[@kagoukagamine1095]

21:02 look at the LED board behind you, when you un-activate the lagre disco ball there's still, a light on. There's must be a missing disco ball you didn't find out. Maybe it's lead to another secret ending

[@SebastianDrzewiecki]

Amazing how you were able to find those hidden rooms. 😱😱😱

[@philipzapata9105]

wow I missed quite a few of em. game was awesome. might go back today and get the ones I missed.

[@KyleHilliard]

It's really easy to jump straight to them after beating the game!

[@FightCain]

That really does sound something from Silent Hill. My closest thing ears got was White Noiz from SH2.

[@emiya9130]

If you look closely at the end there is a man sitting in front of a bunch of computers. My theory is that the boy is being controlled by us (the player) and by unplugging the plug he is free from being controlled

[@tinysoul]

Could be metaphoric. The player is a sperm and this is the abortion ending. The regular ending is the fertilization & birth ending.

[@simon9902]

wow that's a nice interpretation

[@enclavegeneral8141]

I guess that's why it's called "Inside".

[@enclavegeneral8141]

But anyways, this is the best theory I have heard about this game!

[@sneezy-e]

"Inside" that pussy!

[@ladybuglotus]

MIND. FREAKING. BLOWN.

[@promoxie6942]

How would you have gone back to that field after hearing the stereo tunes? Are you required to restart? Does the game remember you pulled all those plugs? What if you get to that room and try to destroy that last device without having pulled all the others? So many questions.

[@taywilson3813]

you have to restart the game but we're your in that room to open the door with music it will open I think

[@matthewshiers9038]

The progress seems to be achievement-based. If my theory is correct, you could simply load each section you found on your first run in order to break each of the lamps and then load to get to the recording devices and cornfields respectively. In other words, you only actually need to play through to the meatball section once. In fact, you might not even have to ever reach the first ending in order to get the second one.

[@notpex989]

maybe when people are controlled they can go only in two directions and when the boy unplugged this thing he just can't walk at all because he was conntrolled all the time by the player so now he is free and need to learn how to walk (sorry for bad english xd)

[@tomislavmidanovic8666]

wait so when i do al the lamps i have to go way back to the corn field?

[@TheCaboose568]

Aw, 19:35. The mutant rubs his head!

[@ao1ao2ao3]

i thought the player was a girl... it made made high pitched grunting noises when "she" fell.

[@TheCaboose568]

Blue Complexity I think its an eldritch horror now. So doesn't matter either way

[@ao1ao2ao3]

Alex. Shut the fuck up. He was trying to tell me about either it was a girl or a boy. he told me it doesn't matter either way.

[@alexeis8249]

Blue Complexity lol nope, salty baby rage incomming ...its a boy trust me, like in limbo

[@ao1ao2ao3]

Boy? Dude it doesn't matter If you keep on being ignorant. then go fuck yourself.

[@thenero8697]

The only thing that I can say about this is game is the prequel to LIMBO because in both endings you are still gonna die and you are sent to the other dimension where you need to find happiness and peace(The Girl)

[@elchelas1183]

No, Limbo and this game have differente protagonist, the kid in Limbo dies with his sister in that tree did you see in the final of the game, maybe both games are in the same universe but the kids are in different dimensions, one is alive and the other one is dead, that's my opinion :)

[@thenero8697]

+El Chelas (Shelitas) I forgot the ending of LIMBO so yeahh...

[@congratulationsyoucanread7327]

+El Chelas (Shelitas) spoiler alert

[@l4dyr4ider9]

I would've never found these

[@omnimatt2239]

Wait. So. You can back track all the way to the corn field? Or. You just do it on your next play through?

[@Crazy4youcheezitK]

Dude wait, how did you get back to the cornfield area tho?? Did you walk all the backwards through the game?? Is that possible, and wouldn't it take ages?

[@staryoshi06]

It remembers your progress.

[@Crazy4youcheezitK]

So like, you can start the game over and it will keep the secrets? or you have the option to choose to go back to certain part of the game, like scene selection

[@staryoshi06]

Kate Game remembers what ones you have deactivated.

[@Arazpee]

Did you check that scene which our giant creature is going to help some kind of things in the box but was tricked by those human and go down to water. Can we go to the right path?

[@sneezy-e]

The game wont progress unless you stand under the box

[@Wesblumarine]

Thanks Kyle!

[@CaveJohnson1]

Thank you!

[@potatopc9205]

As I understand all of them are been running by that devices and the final one is like the master devices When you shutdown it the main character is gone too creepy ending

[@CustomPickupTruck]

You must have played this game over and over for you know where all of those secret rooms are located

[@gagetaylor192]

I understand but i don't understand at the same time. Why is the alternate ending at the beginning of the game? There's no way of exactly backtracking.

[@TheDTGM]

I think I got it,he was being controlled by that helmet he unplugged, and the helmet was wired up to some computers. I think the computers represent the player and once he deactivated the helmet we the player could no longer control him and thats why the game just ends..

[@Soul-Hook]

What pisses me off is that none of the endings explains the following: Why are so many buildings submerged in water? What's up with the mermaid? If the people want to catch the kid alive, why send murderous dogs after him? Why did they let the blob-thing live if it turned people into zombies? Among many other things, but I those where the ones that bothered me the most.

[@leafie6604]

- It's a dystropian world, a lot of things are destroyed and/or abandoned. Judging from all the water and mud it has been raining for quite some time, and if all of the people have been turned into meat puppets there wouldn't be any kind of maintenance anywhere and there could be flooding. Much of this game also takes place underground, and near water. - The mermaid creature was an experiment created in the lab just like the other zombie-like things, it was most likely a failed experiment since the others are dead in tanks. The fact that it has a chain around it's leg means that it probably escaped before it could be captured and it attacks out of fear. Later once it finds out that you're not one of the scientists going to hurt it it tries to help you by giving you the ability to breathe underwater, since it probably knew the area well and knew you wouldn't be able to progress without it. - They didn't want to catch the kid alive they try to shoot and kill him on sight. They probably knew the kid managed to escape while they were rounding up other people to zombify and wanted him dead because he "knew too much" or something along those lines. - The blob thing didn't escape, nor does it turn people into zombies. The mind control machines turn people into zombies and then they feed them to the blob to make it bigger and stronger. There is a replica of a forest and beach in one of the lab displays that the blob crashes into. Later when it "escapes" it lands in the same forest on the same beach. It's trapped in a biodome made to look like the outside.

At 1:52 can anyone actually make out that picture? It looks like a cage hanging above ground with people in it.

[@foxy5066]

That doesn't tell us anything tho and there was one light in the background when he went into the massive version of the ball maybe that was a ball he needed to find? I ment ball as in the disco ball thing

[@foxy5066]

Ok

[@barsni4779]

Usually those hidden endings were (not gonna say "are" since it's been a while since I saw one) "true" or "good" endings, but fourth wall joke is kinda disappointing for me.

[@xsorex561]

Can you explain to me what does that mean ? Do you get the alternate ending on the end or is it there that the game end's?

[@hannahhardy860]

I think this i just a quick ending that you can get, not really quick, where it shows that everyone is connected to those machines that control them and when you unplug the big switch, the main character even goes offline or whatever. Everyone is a robot or clone or whatever they are called.

[@hannahhardy860]

either that or he just went tired and was like "I did it, its over"

[@inceptional]

We're all slaves to the machine, even those of us who think we are somehow free of it. And the machine is just a bunch of mostly faceless men going about their day to day lives and jobs, serving the whims of the corporations; they are the people who keep the machine running. If you try to escape the machine you'll just get caught in the end and sucked back into it, whether you want to be part of it or not. Basically, it's near futile trying to be free anymore, because you inevitably never are. I think the only way to truly be free is to destroy the entire machine completely-unlikely-or maybe just die trying. The "machine" is modern society, capitalism, business/corporations, banks, money, greed, selfishness, work (the 9-5 trap) . . .

[@simon9902]

But the machines could be our freedom sayed Nietzche, paradoxally with industrialism who could free humans being of works/labour, inequallity, hunger, from is conditions, we have strangely see the ''works'' beginning to be the most rated value wich is strange because with the ''death of god'' and freewill the notions of merits just disappear and values are lost, equally ''work'' as always be seen as Torture, it's is etymology in many languages, as something for slaves even Parmenide, and Shakespear, or Thomas more (Utopia) was laughing at that. The industrialism was the promise of more social life but we're in pure Individualism, like human ideas never changed in more than 2000years it almost, seing surely regress.

[@ReLapse85]

it ends there. he's unplugged himself from the control of (us) the gamer.. Now its time for us to unplug ourselves from the control of society

[@hannahhardy860]

I KNEW IT I CALLED THIS I KNEW THESE WOULD GIVE A DIFFERENT ENDING HOLY SHIT IM SMART

[@ReLapse85]

use grammar then

[@SuperGamingFrost]

+RelapseJunkie there is no typos? What do you mean?

[@ReLapse85]

yeah, no typos. Just grammar. I thought it ironic calling yourself smart but forgetting to use grammar. never mind :/

[@murotarantino]

Can i go back to the story to get the secrets without losing my actual position?

[@sazankabianca4448]

i think it's about pollution. Think about it. Dying plants, dead animals, trash in the water as well as higher water levels, foggy skies. Also all the industrial mechinary everywhere. What if this is like a Wall-E kind of thing?

[@ByWho-js5bq]

i think the end is him freeing himself from the blob

[@davidwhanford3645]

So, if you can't go back to the cornfield, what was the point of unplugging those goddamm sphere thing after the cornfield?

[@staryoshi06]

It remembers your progress.

[@davidwhanford3645]

+staryoshi06 oh. Thanks.

[@SassPinkk]

Wait, so if you reach the end of inside, does that mean you're.... *Endside?

[@wuffy.2070]

Well at least its better than a ball of humans or what ever that thing was

[@laggingthyme]

lmao I agree xD It just disturbs my mind since that ball thingy is full of random people

[@Alias782]

+MaDaMax Do u maybe want to make a big meatball with me O____O?

[@sneezy-e]

The proper term is "orgy". It was an orgy of humans.

[@melissawhite2389]

his profile picture is my crew in GTA 5

[@novirakartikamayangsari9825]

I just wanna know what's the disco ball for?

[@sebastian6280]

for me and you dancing all night long ;)

[@ragaetsenna2852]

+sebas tian what the fuck is this LOL

[@sebastian6280]

Raga Etsenna just explaining the lady the aplication of a disco ball

[@hxkouu]

yeah, same question 😊

[@imanigarcia310]

It’s not a disco ball

[@johnvonshepard9373]

I found one of these!

[@GrumpyGrimo]

epic, nice movie

[@drowsy5384]

when you disable big core does the game end or do you continue?

[@sofusautzen7636]

it goes back to menu screen

[@drowsy5384]

Pretty senseless

[@drowsy5384]

I was expecting something better

[@sofusautzen7636]

look at the comment section becuse i dont want to explain it XD

[@xRoyalxSTARx]

You don't get it then do you?

[@user-sh9ot8lk2x]

Wait, what? What's happened with our hero? He save all of this people's, or zombies [idk who is this], but karma is real and he be mutanted like this zombies? [sorry for bad english], or what?

[@0levi01]

He was being controled,in this alternative ending he unplug the machine that controls him(you)

[@TheLolliPopPlayer]

Ooo omg rly ? Jesus

[@AGrayPhantom]

That's really dumb. Not a satisfying payoff at all.

[@animationstickanims9400]

Nice

[@valdogolpyro2227]

I'm guessing everyone is free from what is going on? :o

[@gelzgrant13]

Dont too much spending times with machine like smartphones, pc, etc. Spend more times outside. Then maybe thats the learning.

[@pixelKnight-ed7dm]

So whos the boy in the game? and what the hell is the underwater creature?

[@stefanolsson2707]

It might have been the big blob who was controlling the boy. He was their means to escape. I don't know why the mermaid was there though.

[@user-tz2jn2iw2z]

+Stefan Olsson The mermaid were failed experiments not originally to be mermaids but they were drowned for so long and stayed under water, the fishes did something to them to make them breathe under water and thats what the fishes did to the boy.

[@stefanolsson2707]

Cool. Though I thought I saw her injecting him with a cable. Gotta see it again

[@mariia_17]

+Stefan Olsson it was the mermaid not the fishes

[@stefanolsson2707]

+Angie Huesca I was referring to the girl injecting him with the cable not the fishes.

[@KnightedSilverWolf]

How can you go back to previous levels anyway? How the fuck would the player know about those

[@KyleHilliard]

At any point you can hit pause and the "load" option lets you jump to any chapter in the game.

[@ckitrom]

MAGIC

[@SucculentSiren]

Wait... So what was the point of finding all the lamps?

[@Anno888]

So that boy was controled by someone.Wow.I knew it!!

[@alexeis8249]

i wouldnt say someone..i just saw a bunch of cable hanging around the controll thing helmet ^^'

[@Ddotkay]

Worst secret ending ever.

[@Ddotkay]

+Windy Boy Linh Hoàng how would you know whether or not I understand it? You don't know me lol as I said worst ending ever. Even less imaginative than the actual ending.

[@inceptional]

Pretty sure both endings are actually rather great, if you get what they're trying to tell/tech you. And, to be clear, the endings don't exist in a vacuum; they go hand in hand with the rest of the game's themes and ideas. The overall message and sentiment is the point, and the endings are basically the moral or the tale, the warning.

[@Ddotkay]

+inceptional the argument you are making is pretty weak. Do you like pizza? If the answer is no by your logic it must be because you don't understand why it's tasty. My point is I understand the endings I just didn't enjoy it, the puzzle mechanics on the other hand I did enjoy. It's just a matter of opinion rather than a lack of understanding. I made that clear in my last comment to be fair...

[@Ddotkay]

+Ddotkay just had a look and apologies because I didn't make it clear In my last comment.

[@Ddotkay]

+inceptional That's ridiculous, you can't compare my opinions on the ending of a game to a war, I get what you are trying to say but it's an obvious straw man argument as holding an opinion that war is a good thing is obviously retarded where as my opinion isn't as black and white. Even being aware of the moral connotations of the game doesn't change the fact the ending was extremely pretentious. It was able to abruptly end the game with the notion of "oh that's what the games about" if that was true why not end the game when the boy was sucked into the blob, or when captured by the girl in the water? It would have the exact same effect of trying to give the player the feeling that the developers intended. It's because at those points they still had ideas for gameplay which is the core component to any "game" the morals and story should compliment the game not be the game because all that does is leave gamers with a sense of unfulfilment and attracts pretentious types like your self.

[@SahidKhan-gk1qb]

Game ka nam kiya he?

[@gateofdite]

Oh so.. we are a zombie :/

[@deadinside8715]

Wait so the alternate ending was DEATH?!

[@DeadManProp]

How do you disable the main core?

[@AGrayPhantom]

Go inside, hold "x" and pull left.

[@DeadManProp]

AGrayPhantom Thx man

[@AGrayPhantom]

Pat Your welcome. Let me know what your thoughts are on the ending.

[@danishqureshi8583]

what does the main core do though? why does is the second light still on? And why are those lights in a pattern?

[@DeadManProp]

Danish Qureshi Each light represents each orb. Second light stays on, meaning you have to go back to where the light was. As shown at the end of this video.

[@nicedeath2959]

So in the end the kid unplugs himself from me

[@ladyindicaa]

How the hell do people figure these things out?

[@dizzydaisy909]

Game informer wherre is my magazine

[@5uperM]

Oh my god, what.

[@Oracol]

No offense to the publisher of this video, but no way in hell did you figure all of this on your own. I mean, the hidden door in the cornfield, and that one orb that was behind the column towards the end of the game where you needed two of the guys to split from the rest of the group to help you up to reach it.... how in the world would you have EVER known to do that if it was want the publishers of the game giving you a hint? Or the pattern to open the door?.... No hate or anything, I just find it too crazy to believe you knew about all this without Playdead's help. They seem like one in a million type longshots.

[@Rex_Tactics]

Search Galm's gameplay of Inside. He did not get all the rooms but the way he discovered the solutions on the spot was genius.

[@Oracol]

+REX-On Thing is, Game Informer got a copy of the game before the general population, so one thing I'll give them the benefit of doubt with is time. To find what they found certainly wasn't on the first time playing the game, or 2nd or 3rd, they must've spent hours carefully examining every nook and cranny of the game. I still find the whole playing the right tune to open the door to be way too out there for them to have figured it out on their own. My guess is Playdead or someone involved with the development of the game either told them directly or gave em a major hint.

[@auhsojnala8722]

Michael from Achievement Hunter (Rooster Teeth) found the one in the corn field immediately during their Let's Watch of it (like Let's Play, but with other members of the group watching and commenting). He was running through the field, and found the hatch because the kid stopped moving cause his leg got caught on the hatch. So he jumped over it, then turned back and tried to activate something, opening the door. So yeah, it's entirely possible - and likely - that you can find it on your first playthrough. As for the one behind the pillar, while Michael didn't find it, you can see a hanging rope/wire when approaching from the left, so it's also entirely possible that they were curious and wanted to see if they could grab it. Edit: misspelled a word.

[@Igormenphito]

Shouldn't there be 16 hidden rooms?

[@weezyfantasy]

why 16?

[@Ace-od8en]

can someone explain what those little balls do?

[@P05H]

Little cores

[@Apopolopis]

they power the helmets that control the puppets

[@ByWho-js5bq]

wat does this kid have against disco balls
