Here's my take on the plot so far: Gary summers (the guy who got into the fatal car accident) died, and Jason Storm did too (the employee of Razii inc.) and they were both buried in Greenwood cemetery, where the robber would dig up their graves. (I also think the robber is likely the mysterious worker or "new guy" who people weren't sure what he was doing. He was most probably transporting or helping transport Jason Storm and Gary's souls into the games.) Gary summers was somehow transported into Talking Gerald as Gerald, this explains the "Atleast that's what I believe", the "Please don't do this to me, it wasn't my fault. I don't know why I'm here" and, most importantly, the "Tyrannosaurus wrecks" car crash joke. I'm not entirely sure what happened with Jason Storm, but he could've been transferred into Jumping Julian. This would also explain the whole "save the trapped souls" thing. Probably some plotholes in this theory, but just my headcanon so far!
@captaink1dd2226 ай бұрын
John munkford was probably put into jumping julian and was killed to put him into the game, the terrifying truth of what razii was doing lead him to want to lead people to save others but the kids would not allow it, the 3 souls behind him

What I'd always thought was that Jason Storm had been killed because of his extremely harsh comment on the game Jumping Julian, not sure by who and not sure what happened to him after that, perhaps he was "taken" by Julian and that's why he disappeared and noone found his body. But maybe John Munkford was put into Jumping Julian? Or Julian has a mind of his own and didn't like Jason's comment, so he took him. Idk, just some 3am thoughts that came to my head while watching.

The developer of the Jumping game got a bad review from Jack S so he quit being a game developer, got a job at the company where Jack worked, and most likely killed him (the only lore I picked up was from you playing).

The creepy "sandwich" thing with the Gerald is actually reversed speech. This is the dialog, from what I can tell, but Jack's laugh makes some difficult to hear. " My parents died when I was young, I had no one to love me. Drinking(?) was the only thing I resorted to. That's why she left me. (And then one or two lines I can't hear due to the laugh.) Now it's too late. That's why I am here. There is some more a bit later at the jumpscare. That speech goes "I can see you. (followed by one or two lines covered by the reaction)" There is a final bit of audio with the creepy child face way later. I thought it was reversed, but after listening forward and back a few times it just sounds like warble-y noises. There might be something but if there is I can't hear it. Those are all the ones I heard that sounded reversed.

You know your indie game has quality if an incredibly popular KZbinr finds it interesting. I have seen other KZbin videos about it, but much like the developer themself, I never expecting Jacksepticeye to play it. For those who are curious about some of the gibberish found in 98XX, I have embedded two important messages into memory. The first one is found in Talking Gerald. When you reverse the message that you get from the “why do you exist?” option, Talking Gerald talks about his parents dying when he was young and that he had no one to love him. Drinking was the only way he could cope. That’s why his loved one left him. He’s been regretting his actions ever since. The second one is a much shorter backwards message from “Ball Popper”. Getting a game over will result in a jumpscare. It’ll eventually say the following message backwards, “I just wanted to play. I just wanted to have fun; this isn’t fun. I want my mommy.” Jack, if you’ve made it this far into the comment and still want to learn and understand 98XX more, I can provide a link to a video that tries its best to explain it. It’s basically what MatPat would do, but with less cliche lines. It’s actually pretty interesting.

I hope to see you play more as he adds more. I do admit it was hard to watch as someone with seizures, if you can without detracting from the video, I hope you can put in a warning. I know it's not SUPER flashy but software gore can be a trigger for some. Wonderful video as always, and I'm happy to see the creator has found you as well! I hope everyone can support them.

At 3:47, I reversed it, he says the following: “My parents died when I was young. I had no one to love me. Drinking was the only thing I resorted to. That’s why she left me. I know I shouldn’t have done it but it’s too late. That’s why I’m here.” Edit: Then again at 4:37, I think he says something along the lines of “Now I can see, (???) monsters in me” (Sean was shouting so I couldn’t really make it out lol) Edit 2: 44:48 I have no clue, I reversed it but it sounded even more garbled 🤷 Edit 3: I tweeked with the basic pitch of the extracted audio on CapCut. I couldn’t get it perfect, but I think I hear: “I just want you to play. I just want you to listen. Just as you should. I want my mommy.”

Alright so I continued t he game a bit from where Jack left off. In the space shooting game after you die the game restarts sending you one of those weird faces Jack found at the end of the video and catching it shows someone crawling out of the computer and taking a kid. Reaching 10000 points will send a big circle down to you. After going out of bounds in jumping Julian when you catch that circle you go to a scene almost same as Jack got at the end of the video and you see another one of these faces. After going out of bounds when you talk to Gerald and keep saying nice things to him it takes you one of those spaces again and you once again get to see one of those faces. My working theory is those are people trapped in the computer. I didn't get much further than that yet.
@icewater68416 ай бұрын
10:57 The Hexadecimal code translates to “Let me out! He has trapped us here! We are running out of time!” Edit: Gerald is also the drunk driver, I wasn’t able to get all of what he said from reversing it because Sean spoke over him, but he also says his parents died when he was young.

Here's some things you can do to unlock Easter eggs •Hit 2500 on Tank Blast and go into the void •Reverse the Jump scare audio (that the man and child spoke to you) •Show the unknown audio in Sound Waves •Compliment Gerald (do it continuously •Paint the whole screen to find something...behind.. •go into the note pad and tap the pencil till he says numbers are useful, then type numbers, it should give you a code to... something Some more hints to lore: •Think about what Gerald said when you talk down to him "it wasn't my fault", what wasn't his fault? •Why did Gerald make a car crash joke. • Look at dates to help figure out a timeline of events •Look at the mans face in the talking Gerald jump scare...he seens familiar.. I won't spoil everything for you and others!! Can't wait to look for the next episode! ~ Alexis from PA!
