So moral of the story: bottling up your emotions and constantly putting others before yourself to the point of neglecting your own well being is not the best course of action if you're stuck in a time loop.

[@colt1903]

In the moment. The worst thing is easily... Well... We all saw the end of the video.

[@jazon80r13]

@@colt1903 Debatable.

[@colt1903]

@@jazon80r13 Not really? In a time loop setting, you "lose" when your actions cause more misery to the people in the loop than the actual loop itself. Cuz that's the indication of your morals dying. Siffrin kills a child. Not only that but rips off/eats their face to do so. In a loop setting, the moral death is usually worse for all involved than the looper themselves dying. Because once the looper stops caring, once they start to actively use the loop to hurt rather than help, that is the moment that any hope of breaking the loop either ceases, or stops mattering. Because there's no meaning in victory if the person who comes out the other end is a monster who can't live with the guilt of their own sins. That's more or less the reason every time loop story is one of perseverance. That moral death becomes just as if not an even more important antagonist than anything else. And seeing a character push past that, overcome it, recover from it, etcetera... That is, in no small part, what makes so many loop stories great.

The fact you opted to add that "montage" at the end instead of the actual ending is so genius, it felt so eerie and perfectly represented that feeling of hopelessness that the game has, even if the ending is ultimately a sweet one.

Damn now I actually do want to see a game like that. There's no good ending, there's only a downward spiral your character goes through until they've literally exhausted every option possible down to the last minute choices, only for their final choice to be embracing apathy and not even entertain the loop anymore, not bothering to interact or acknowledge anything as the cycle spirals in on itself to seconds of eternity passing like whirlpool swallowing itself. They've killed everyone, saved everyone, in each possible quantifiable sequence, in every observable universe, they've done it and it all just comes back to the start. Basically going through the entire 5 stages of grief, slamming face first into a brick wall at Depression, and never being able to go through it. What happens to a man who's given the chance to relive a single moment in their life for the rest of eternity with no way to move on? He'll eventually stop trying. Maybe add an extra secret ending where the loop expands past the previous point by about a hour or two so dedicated gamers get rewarded for their efforts. Now what should we call this nihilistic psychological horror existentialist nightmare? Maybe *'BOROS'?*

Sure, there is less dialogue, but the all encompassing idea of the literal end of the [spoilers] and the thousands of civilisations that came before us and how they carried us to where we are today. Especially considering, this adventure, no matter how bad it gets, INNATELY has the issue that there is an obvious solution. This can make a great story, but it means that it will never be hopeless, because even if there is an infinitely low chance her friends are told about the time loop, it isn’t zero and thus it will happen (it’s not a matter of if, but when).

In all fairness, the banana was the bait. The KNIFE was the hook.

The creator of the trapped trilogy named the character after the founder of armor games which is the company that published in stars and time which is why his name is in the credits

​@liamwhite3522 yeah the LEADER, not the creator. They could very well be two different people.

Did I finish the game before finding out yall played it? YES Do I still feel like crying every end-of-act housemaiden visit??? YES a billion times

[@fugyfruit]

Honestly no other piece of media has ever made me cry as much as ISAT

[@spottedpelt1256]

genuinely thanks to yall for introducing me to this game, its quickly become one of my most favorite of all time

[@FluffiBois]

Jello, I thank you. Because of your vid, my girlfriend (who loves your stuff and doesn’t buy many games herself) wants to play ISAT now. The video worked. I salute you o7

[@ZomBro_BOSS]

I love when jello plays a game and has friends voice the characters

[@draconicenigma2813]

YESS! I finished ISAT recently and was so disappointed when I realised it didn’t have the fame it deserves, hopefully this can boost its popularity a little :D:D

"Even though you're not friends. Even if just allies." DAMN. That hurt so much this time.

Bought this game to play it after watching to 1:43. I reeeeeeeeeeally wish the trigger warning was "the main character gets *fucked up* and there's _nothing you can do about it._

the speed at which I clicked this I’m so excited to see certain bits animated LETS GO

[@Plutogoose01]

I got about halfway through the video before I decided to get the game myself and came back to watch the rest of the video after finishing and I absolutely love this game cannot recommend highly enough, thanks to jello and crew for introducing me too one of my new favorite games

Everyone who watched the streams casually sipping tea while watching this man lie through his teeth

Lie about what? Anime dubs?

[@toxicdemon1315]

This just being a happy fun casual game.

[@Judge_Jester]

The best praise i could give this game to a newcomers is when the game finished, when jello said this is better than undertale everyone just unanimously agreed, i think even including chat. And if that isn't praise i don't know what is.

[@mayyonness]

Desperately need this game to get big and be a cult favorite. It's SO good

[@maximusharbour3463]

First I thought "Oh a video that might be sort of fun". but then I realized it was a JelloApocalypse main channel video and therefore guaranteed to be a masterpiece I will rewatch at least four times.

[@local_space_dennys]

I need to go watch the VODs now. Just watching the edits gave me such a spike of anxiety that I need to see the story unedited. Thank you for showing this series for me Jello.

32:47 "Back to the stage." You know what ? It's not inacurate to say I feel seen here, espetially with the repetition of "I'm fine" that precede it... BUT it would be more acurate to say I feel like I was axekicked in the lungs. Love the vid, game looks incredible, big thanks to the creator of both, I'm taking five to contemplate life and eat something before continuing tho.

[@LuperisNone]

Buddy... Consult friends, family or therapist if you are too Siffrincore plezy

[@zaratousta1]

@@LuperisNone Siffrin is thankfully more akin to my younger self than the me of today, and friend, family and therapy are very much to thank for that (And me too, I did my part ^^). But seeing some of the habits I've kept from that time and taking an outsider look at where I was at a point in my life is... Well it's moving for sure. Thanks for your concern.

[@parsnip_p7661]

The loop voice constantly had me CACKLING you got it exactly right

[@jeremylugodas]

this has the meta-narrative vibe that is almost like undertale, but the character you play as actually has a voice. i also like how you “choose” what the character says for dialogue which adds to the meta side of the game. so it’s like undertale but better

[@sharkylady]

OH MY GOD LET'S GOO!!!!!!! MORE SUPPORT FOR IN STARS AND TIME, JELLO I AM SHAKING YOU VIOLENTLY

[@ijlayugan4149]

I just realised that Jello edited almost EVERYTHING in blackwhite monochrome. Like in 4:38 Where that heart overlay is white and not pink or red like it usually is. And even Sav's avatar isn't in color. I love this!

[@stupogo0]

what a great hyper cut! while i'm sad almost nothing from the last 2 hours was in it, I also realize its really hard to pick the 'best bits' from the leg of the game and also people can just buy the game and see it themselves if they don't watch the VODs , TYVM for playing the game!

[@henryattfield8979]

The old title was : This game is fine

[@mach1275]

Damn you, I am now DOOMED to spend $20 on this game because it looks BEAUTIFUL and HILARIOUS and CRUSHINGLY SAD and like it was made with LOVE and CARE and I know that I shall remember playing it for the rest of my life once I do.

[@SFX0078]

Gods this game is so good and deserves so much more attention. All your voice acting pushes it even further beyond that.

[@blindonabudget6953]

the full playthrough that jello has of this game is INCREDIBLE. please watch it, it's genuinely so funny

[@Space_Bones]

My favorite kind of art: Cute and stylish characters overcome with intense physical or mental states. or as otherwise stated: Mask of Turmoil

[@Concavewaters]

I appreciate jello keeping thr ending vague, it was great, even in the playthrough he skipped a bunch of epilogue dialogue to be like, heyyyy. Buy this gameeeee. $20 dollarrrrs. Anyway love this vid, thank uou for it!! The ending was very cool!!

[@veevwjw123]

(30:55) Literally rewatched this entire video just to hear "Would you perhaps, accept a *crumb?*" all over again.

I love the detail of you keeping the game black and white for everything (except the Jordan’s of course)

Glad to se---oh wait, already said that this loop, didn't I? Well anyway, I loved this game and the streams. The incredible writing coupled with your voices and specific brand of insanity was a delight to watch. In the end, I can confidently say that it was indeed pie smell, and if you don't know what that means, go watch the streams! (but buy the game first)

[@mranderson9553]

i'm going to be honest when it was talking about the picture capturing their friendship i thought it was alluding to how siffrin was starting to plan to freeze time, stop the loop at a point where they were happy, where everyone was happy, where they and everyone else could be frozen together, haven't seen the games end so this may be waffle but it sounds cool

[@magic_harmony]

Had a lot of fun watching the VODs for these streams and then watching this with all the cool edits and clips! Got to watch ur guys play thru right after I finished the game myself and this game is just so so good!!

The excellence of this game and the quality of the voice acting (not to mention the banter) made these streams better than any movie or show I've seen this year.

[@SlyJMan]

I've seen a total of 2:30 of this video and now refuse to watch any more until I beat this game.

[@funnylittlecreature]

Huh! That's funny. That section of the video just so happens to cover exactly the amount of content in the demo!! That's a really cool coincidence!

[@charlieseen]

I'm so glad you guys streamed this game. It rearranged my brain cells in the best way possible and I love it

[@Sinnohfreak387]

6:04 Not the only moment where this kind of thing happens. This game gets so much characterization out of even basic game mechanics!

Okay first off, this game looks amazing. gonna immediately get it. SECOND: Goddang I'd listen to Jello and friends read a transcript from NPR. Y'all are so talented and I love listening to all of these you record

[@novalight9742]

So glad the game doesnt just leave it where the video ended, but if it did, then MAN would it have been one hell of an ending

[@trioncz.9334]

Glad to see this thing getting the recognition it needs

[@Paigefox07]

The editing in this video is really good, especially at the end. It really captures Sif’s feelings of insanity with how fast it goes from hard moment to hard moment. And then when the faces of their friends and their voices calling their name with a bunch of loops happening. And the music. It really makes a point, and it sticks. It feels kind of like a movie trailer. I haven’t played this game, but I feel like it’d be a game that leaves me with a really deep feeling in my chest that I can’t describe. I’m gonna go watch a play though

[@SteveAkaDarktimes]

Thank you for not spoiling the ending. this was a delightful game. excellent writing.

[@mdbgamer556]

Now I have to see the whole playthrough. I only hold a *slight* grudge on the friend that has cursed me with this hunger. Also this video is shredding my heart to little pieces. That feeling of... "what else can I do now...?" that Frin has to deal with... yeah......

[@Patch-lz9yi]

I finished the game yesterday since it seemed right up my alley. It was, and it was very well executed. I've been staring at the wall a lot today

[@deucesommerfeld1248]

This. Is Undertale vibes mixed with a HEAVIER tone of nihilism. The idea of being able to loop unending, to return to the "Save point", and able to redo everything again and again. But everytime you come close to breaking it, everytime you finally are happy and have progressed, strived to overcome and triumph... you fail. You are sent to the beginning. It's what I imagine Flowey feeling after experiencing the power of resets. First he's fine, he's strong, he can do what he wants! But then... he's done it all... with NOTHING left to do. Until you come along. Frisk comes along. I don't think Siffrin is given that opportunity.

[@elenafriese891]

I mean, they *are!* They just don't look like Siffrin when it happens

[@iwasbibliomaniac]

this is a wonderful edit of a wonderful playthrough! i'm so glad it got a main channel video after all, i hope a bunch more people want to play it or watch something about it now :D
