TRAPPED (in a Bad Flash Game)

[@Omahdon]

this must be what its like when a beloved family pet comes up to you with its mouth full of something suspicious and they drop the most mangled bloodied corpse of an unidentifiable animal at your feet and looks up at you with expectant eyes dewy with innocent love

This is very specific but yes

I'll be perfectly honest here, the Trapped trilogy is honestly one of my favourite things to watch people play/react to. It's like the poster child of "so dumb, it's amazing" 2000s Flash projects. It just nails that perfect blend of scuffed visuals and animation, completely archaic puzzle design, and unintentionally hilarious writing and voice acting. But still, you can tell that that the folks who made it put so much hard work and effort into it, despite the ideas they had being way too ambitious and beyond their own levels of technical skill at the time. It's a bad seires of games, but the amount of earnestness and charm it carries just makes it impossible for me to hate.

Ended up playing myself and discovered some random things. The bible is mandatory in trapped since Dan McNeely will die entering the balcony without it. The mirror has screws you can't interact with since you lose the ability to re-enter the bathroom when you get the guard to leave and your inventory is cleared except for Bible and Key when escaping. A game over in Trapped (Where the guard catches you if you light the bathroom after leaving Dialla) is retconned by Mickey taking out the guard as shown in ESCAPE. Also, the game has a snarky message for you if you take to long to enter the bathroom.

[@thesolidestsnake]

I deadass thought the second game was a prequel and it was going to end in a fight where she gets knocked out and Dan gets amnesia (presumably from falling off a building) so when the two meet in the first game it makes slightly more sense that she was still alive.

[@thejonbrownshow8470]

Same here tho she had to have slight amnesia too with how chill she was in the first game lol

[@appelofdoom8211]

I think the plot mentions her taking immortality drugs that also give amnesia (which is why Dan is also immortal and gets amnesia). That's what I got from tv tropes anyway

[@BookWyrmOnAString]

​@@appelofdoom8211I think I figured it out. Here is my theory on the timeline. Dialla and Dan are crime bosses who discover immortality, dialla uses it, but it causes amnesia and she believes herself to be a detective, her cover job, and starts to date one of her "coworkers". Dan kidnaps her to try to make her remember, but then a rival crime syndicate attacks, forcing Dan to use his immortality elixir. He wakes up with no memory in the bathroom (unrestrained) with the wallet of the guy who owns the mansion he's Trapped™️ in. He gets out, tricks the guard into thinking he's another guard IN THE ROOM HE WAS GUARDING, then frees Dialla, who doesn't recognize him somehow. (Note: the only logical conclusion is that there WERE two guards, but dan ate one of them and stole his wallet.) He opens a way out, "leaves dialla behind" even tho she could have just followed him out the way he came (and she got out anyway), and Dan gets his memory back. Then, Pursuit happens, Escape begins, and Dan makes dialla solve his Cool Escape Room to find out her identity and get the key, hoping she will stay if she knows who she really was. Dan is promptly locked in a safe and thrown into the ocean, forced to drown eternally until the safe erodes or someone comes to rescue him.

[@BookWyrmOnAString]

Alternatively, one of them is a detective, and the other a crime boss, but they've been Trapped™️ in a purgatory-esque time loop for so long that everything starts to blend together and no-one knows who was who originally.

“Oh my god…… WHY DID WE DO THAT?!”

[@friendlyneighborhoodracoon1734]

My favorite part of this was the BIBLE PRANK at the end of that horrible VHS. I want to interview this developer so I can ask how he decided on the puzzles and why. He fascinates me. I want to study him in a lab environment.

[@Godlimate]

I’m the developer and at the time I made these games I don’t really know how any of the logic of the puzzles fit. And it’s been well over 10 years that I’ve long since forgotten the creative mind of what once was.

[@anniel6479]

These are so spot on to the look and vibe of point and click flash games of the time, they almost feel like parody. This was quite the nostalgia trip.

[@MagnetismR]

"They seemed gayer than a normal finger." You are fucking killing me. Loved these games back in the day. And now I love this video.

[@MelodyTCG]

I just realized the bi curious line isnt in the game. He just had a great impression of the character on the spot

Jello you scared the shit out of me, that reaction to the cat flamethrower was so genuine it freaked me out

[@gasjebasje99]

A couple years ago I would have said "you make a good game if you're so smart" but I did that with TV shows and then he made Epithet Erased. Always trust Jellos mockery.

[@nadiakhanom9437]

dont forget he made pizza game too 👌

[@gasjebasje99]

@@nadiakhanom9437 wasn’t that something he just kind of helped advertise for plasterbrain? (Could be wrong)

[@GameHero152]

@@gasjebasje99 Yeah. I think Jello's involvement with that was just editing and voice acting for the trailer pretty much. And of course promotion.

[@charlieseen]

He did the art for it right?

[@gasjebasje99]

@@charlieseen yeah I think he might have. But that's like saying Alex Hirsch made inside job. It's not wrong, it's just heavily inaccurate.

[@user-pd2mp8nk5g]

I love how the game just speaks for itself

[@BlueDavrial]

Oh dang that VA of Dan must have gotten WORK when it came to flash games, specifically Armor Games. I was trying to pinpoint where I knew him from because i KNEW the voice was familiar. Took a bit but then i got it, he's Detective Grimoire's VA! And still is. Good for him, and his voicework was one of the best parts of this video. Dude does good work and GETS work, respect.

[@sonoci]

That cat part absolutely captured my reaction with the editing - WHAT . . . ?? God I'm so happy this is a video, I only caught the end of the stream when you were playing them

[@clawcakes2]

the way he says "𝓉𝓇𝒶𝓅𝓅𝑒𝒹" in "we have to escape this bathroom cus we're 𝓉𝓇𝒶𝓅𝓅𝑒𝒹" is a vocal stim for me

[@LyricMMX]

14:47 "Did I forget to mention I have a thing for women" Did this guy just assume we assumed that he was gay, what a bold assumption to assume we assumed.

[@dragon1130]

Dan McNeely looks and sounds like a crazy indie game developer. I'm talking about the kind of dev who makes some weird esoteric game that has some kind of bizarre arg involved with it and somehow gets Insanely popular for like six months.

[@ALloydRH]

I remember watching retsupurae play this years ago. I don't think it was covered in this video, but I think the 2nd or 3rd game has a shampoo bottle item that is used for exactly zero puzzles XD

[@JelloApocalypse]

I was desperately trying to find a place to point that out in the edit but there really wasn't a place for it

[@m4d_b0t88]

This moment at 16:02 literally made me almost run out of air. It was too good

[@BlueCoreBard]

I now understand the reference. Thank you Jello, I can now laugh at the "It feels heavier than a normal finger" quip. :)

[@victorbergstein3764]

what video was that from?

I love Jay’s laugh so much, it’s so contagious!

[@byrontheusurper6505]

A jello video a few days after a jello video? We have been blessed by the gods!

[@ronik809]

i love how the 4th game was like jay's revenge because he got to know everything and jello got to be baffled by the game's solutions

[@LilAnonomus]

Just because nobody's pointed it out, 10:58 Dan McNeely tried doing the "smoothly takes off shades" thing despite being in the dark underground

[@kiernanmccluskey471]

You got it wrong, they weren’t normal sunglasses, they were heavier than normal ones

Aside from the stupidity of the fishing rod, why do you have to glue the rope to the banana? IT'S A ROPE!

"ok the main character seems to be stuck in a room but i don't get why the game is called t-" main character: why do i feel so trapped "oh well that explains it now"

Every month this video happens to appear in my recommended I just can't help but watch it the whole way through again. PLEASE do more of this sort of thing, it's funny as all hell
