"No one commanded me not to do this" is the most terrifying BS a machine could say.

[@letsreadtextbook1687]

TheDoomBug "No one ordered me not to kill my own creator" must be what was going on his head

[@AniGaAG]

Well, except that the actual androids humanity will create will most definitely be unable to in a way, through action or inaction, cause a human to come to harm, unless doing so is absolutely necessary to prevent a second human from coming to harm, depending on which of the two is the more "valuable" one to save in the given situation (like the innocent one if the android witnesses a crime, or the one whose safety is more assured in a situation where the android can only possibly save one human out of two or more that are in danger).

[@Thelothuo]

+TheDoomBug Mind of a child. Nailed it.

[@rupertdriggs8104]

oh boy sounds like the webcomic, "pilot"

[@christiandauz3742]

TheDoomBug Sounds like something a religious nutjob would say!

[@CrisSrn02]

Manly is really smart and always has at least an idea of the plot twists in the games he plays. It was really unusual and cute hearing him being confused after that twist at the end. "Oh my mind!"

[@dreamemulators]

i mean it makes sense right?? like one was named nat and the other an. nat an. nathan.

[@lottymotty4108]

wicked pun intended

[@dreamemulators]

Xealot Lily i mean i guess we did nat see that coming in the end

[@musicmasquerade4750]

Twist 1: That was surprising, but made sense I guess Twist 2: Woooow that was crazy Twist 3: WHAT IS HAPPENING ANYMORE

[@meiibee]

Music Masquerade my mind got twisted 3 times

[@Zack_Zander]

Music Masquerade I think my mind is having an "error" at the moment. It's just "bug"ing me a bit ...

[@Maradrafts]

MM - I love that they still have newspapers by Twist 3, though. :D Andrew Nguyen- Reaching pun overload... User input required....

[@InnocentC0]

I was wondering where did she get food. That answers everything.

[@Colddirector]

I guess it kinda makes sense, the reason the "mother" would believe she is human for so long is because of her "phobias", so she hasn't had enough contact with the outside world to realize everyone else is a cyborg. So did the boyfriend make her as well as the kid or what?

[@musicmasquerade4750]

*does 4 things and runs out of energy* Well, I can't NOT relate

[@Maradrafts]

You were an android the whole time!

[@kanatahiba]

Music Masquerade but they don't need sun or electricity or food or.... well actually it's kind of disadvantage for a hi tech android lol 😂

[@shawnheatherly]

I get what the creator was going for, I can understand their logic... but I kept waiting for the girl to kill NAT after he revealed that he killed Nathan. While on him, poor Nathan. The guy built an android, either purely for science or specifically for companionship, fell in love, built them a child and got killed for his efforts.

[@kanatahiba]

Shawn Heatherly At the end of the story, both android (An and Nat) died, despite their special feature to recover batteries and all. Do you know why? 😁

[@balrogdemorgoth4741]

well , all the android did was just push him like a kid would do , it was just bad luck that the android is way stronger than an actual child and the laboratorium was shock full of dangerous shit

[@christiandauz3742]

Reminds me of the movie Passengers with Chris Pratt WHERE IS FUCKING OSHA!

[@meiibee]

yay, a game where green gets recognition

[@loachmomentum8352]

Green is not a creative color

[@paravalent7974]

@Loach Momentum what is a creative color??

[@Frostyflytrap]

I was questioning this story near the end, but it really peaked at the after credits. So much lore dumped at the very last line and then it's the the end, wow.

[@EyeballMouth]

Trust no one not even your own android

[@thepanis696]

shit can blow up on you at any time

[@leslieandrews9208]

Not even your android phone.

[@rapidfart9579]

Weight of the world

[@Soriokeink]

The characters a real cute, and it was really appealing to watch! i like the idea of an android with humanistic feelings.. Although, i can't help but feel that this story is missing... practically all of itself. I mean there's no point where you get a real feel for the real personality or motive of either of the two before "the end," especialy not the android, so everything thing just feels ham stringed at the end. Of course, it was made for a game challenge so i could imagine they only had so much time to develop anything, let alone a complex story. For what they did manage to get though, it's pretty good, just the ending throws people off. The story's not bad, just missing a few peices But what am i going on about, MBA is just playing the game with his soothing af voice, so in the end all is good.

[@renegadehero7393]

Sorio Kein. Hey have you ever seen Almost Human? It was a show with an android that had human feelings, I think you'd like it. Good show.

[@letsreadtextbook1687]

at first I was confused about An's sprite, it looks like snake's head with tounge in and out. I agree with manly, the post-apocalyptic lore is interesting. The only gameplay is finding the letter with limited batteries though.

[@Thelothuo]

+Putri A What do you mean? There was more gameplay than- oh that really was literally the only gameplay

[@diamandis07]

Classic Manly games!!! I hope to hear a "OH BOI" somewhere in this gameplay! 😁😁✊🏼❤️

[@melontrend6722]

Maria Ali YES.

[@renegadehero7393]

Well that was interesting. I was gonna say that robot boy got off way too easy, then that second twist happened. 😮 Was not expecting that. Cute video, thanks Manly!

[@sokumotanaka9271]

"It was an acident." Nut he literally said he pushed him an he killed him. I'll never understand anime.

[@secundox4660]

What, your kid’s never acted out for attention and shoved you into several beakerfuls of flammable materials causing you to combust instantly? Pshh.

[@joaomacabrodeath]

"That is a box" In Snake voice... god help me

[@circular7]

I kinda didn't like the ending. Yes, she was very forgiving and rational about the whole thing, but that's mostly because I think she was more fearful of living out the rest of her days alone in the forest and figured forgiveness was somehow the lesser evil.

[@NaturalFlirtGamer]

_So androids do dream of electric sheep_ *spoiler* A little bit of et tu, Oedipus? But he specified he had the mind of a child - a sadly jealous, self-centered, manipulative child - so he didn't mean permanent harm. I suppose their version of love was enough for them. It wouldn't be for me if I was human. No replica could replace the man I love. I think part of the lore was the "poisoned" forest - maybe nuclear radiation or something is killing off humans. The translation needed help, but not too awful. Good attempt that could have used more fleshing out, pardon the pun.

[@Thelothuo]

+NaturalFlirtGamer Aye, just a bit of translation, and it would be pretty good. I wouldn't say it was cold-blooded murder, or even cold. It seemed rather hot-blooded, what with it being fairly impulsive and the fire afterwards. Yeah? Hot-blooded fire? heh As for the forest, I dunno. It may be contaminants. Like two androids with unusual batteries that stayed in the same spot for over eighty years. Only Nathan knows what was in those things. Hell, it could've been a weak thermonuclear reactor like those on space probes that feeds into a buffer battery to allow for bursts of activity, which carries the advantage of being low-maintenance and not requiring refueling for the extent of its designed lifespan. I'm sure Nathan had a plan for cleanup that he would've committed to had he not died in a chemical fire. For there being nowhere to plant crops anymore, it's possible the remaining androids are not as aware of the environment as things that breathe (humans) are.

[@NaturalFlirtGamer]

+Thelothuo Good morning! Yeah... apparently androids are not programmed to farm & figured humans grew like corn which could be plucked when ripe. :D Which gives me a great mental picture of dead people planted with their feet sticking up, mouldering away. I actually think there was a Night Gallery episode like that. This actually was a fairly depressing little game, tbh. More sad & weird than cute but I give it credit for at least not being about "a strange, sad amnesiac little girl _in ruffles_ searches for the _shocking but moe_ truth behind her _horrible_ past as she picks up rabbit charms throughout a strange HUMONGOUS mansion. NB: All charms results in bonus true ending #63".

[@nogidoki3325]

oh no not another weird rpg games on acid trip !

[@NaturalFlirtGamer]

+bruh drake Loving an android girl can make you crazy! :D

[@shadesmcf]

Wow! that twist on a twist in a twist

[@somebodycooliguess1597]

M Night Shamalan up in this

[@serenade-hime4552]

This was just an adorable, lovely game. I wasn't expecting that familial love between them at all, and it was honestly a very pleasant surprise. >///< Very short & sweet!

[@lostanimeworld11]

First few seconds, and I've already fallen in love with the OST

[@arai_san]

This little game really warmed me up. It'll warm you up too, if you play it with your own fingers.

[@TheBasedTyrant]

Manly's videos are the only ones where a video from 4 years ago can Show up in my recommended, and I can rest assured that it will be the exact same quality content that he has been making consistently for 10 years now.

[@alanibunz]

Nathan only showed up for like 10 seconds but he is my favorite

[@malice6627]

YES, finally another RPG maker game that i never heard about it before, thanks manly.

[@maeb1280]

I knew it. They're both androids. NatAn = Nathan

[@kanatahiba]

Jessielle Barcenas you solved the riddle 😁

[@toonyproductions3964]

Murdered in cold blood *THERES NO BLOOD* Cold murder *KILLED IN FIRE* FIRE IS HOT XD

I really love when i see a new RPG series on this channel

[@voidnoidoid]

I've been introduced to so many great games because of you, keep up the good work!

[@acerbusthedarkenvtuber5684]

Question: Can androids fall in love? My answer: Aigis from Persona 3.

[@heyitsflorce9730]

A c e r b u s but is it real life, its just a game

[@n-extrafries-surprise]

Kiibo from Danganronpa v3

[@MadmanEpic]

I see a lot of people here saying Nat is terrible for lying and all that, but it's worth nothing that he was also specifically given a child-like AI, so it totally makes sense, in a way. If nothing else, it'd explain why he shipped himself in a cardboard box.

[@rosedarkling]

Wow, what twists within this little game; the twists on games is real, just like with that other one, Just Ignore Them. Keep up the fun plays, Manly. :) God bless yours and you! :)

[@watcherofmemelords7967]

I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS FOREVER!!!

[@AndGoatz04]

Soul and Machine, While volatile when combined, they are quite harmonious when together.

[@hiddenghost5903]

Me in the end: ......Wha......wha......wha a twist......

[@dvdlesher]

I thought when the music went super fast, the game is rapidly moving toward the insanity route and not the happy crying route.

[@GloomyFish]

Locked Heart, aka "What a Twist: The Game"

[@BobbyFluffy]

I'm surprised by the lack of comments making jokes about Nat's- [Ah, I'm out of batteries. I must sleep.]

[@RosieBear0304]

bhesbkjsbef RPG Maker YAAAAAS *poof* Awwwwwww QwQ that was cute. No wonder she forgave em so fast, I was sitting here like.."bruh....aint no one gonna be that calm when another tells em they killed a person they loved soooooo much even if it was their kid". But nah, it makes sense now

[@MaliceDiary]

Those are still some awful batteries - way too short lived. I wasn't expecting the last plot twist, but the forest tidbit probably has something to do with the lore.

[@jamesjames6422]

Well, they seemingly are self charging with no need for fuel or any kind, so I'd say they are pretty damn amazing.

[@MaliceDiary]

While its recharging function is pretty useful, if I was running on those batteries I don't think I'd be able to even finish this sent---- [Ah, I ran out of batteries.... I must sleep to recover.]

[@obsidironpumicia4074]

Well, that was... lukewarm. It's like an M. Night Shamalan movie run through Google Translate.

[@eterna88]

this looks pretty interesting.

[@xuebingcracker]

shit dude if i was an android and my father was like "yo im getting married" i wouldn't be jealous i would've been happy to have a MOTHER

[@xuebingcracker]

:>

[@山葵-o8x]

the dialogue is a bit meh but i found this entertaining

[@Brbness1]

i think she's just so touch starved that she's willing to forgive the robot/kid for killing her bf but with all the twists its so complicated

[@mikoriine525]

Very strange but oddly cute game...or rather story. I'm a stickler for the actual game processing the story rather than playing the entire story all at once (especially because this game relies heavily on a story). Yes, short time limit but this felt more like a visual novel than a game. But even so I am a sucker for android-trying-to-find-their-place/android-understanding-human-emotion things, so this story was very sweet to me... Although the double plot twists at the end was really bizarre. Overall, if there was more time I would have liked to have seen this game be more of an actual game where lore/backstory would have been fleshed out more so players can have a better feel for the characters.

[@mochacrusaders1731]

manlyyyy hero's you teach us bro!! *brofist*

[@KazseaNya]

"Free me from this hell" XD

[@Gkvfflowergirl]

Two androids falling in love? That reminds me of an OVA I've seen- *flashbacks to the sadness* oh NO! This is going to be sad, isn't it? (Or messed up considering how most games go...)

Hell yeah another pixelized game and I'n early as fuck!

I think my mind is having an "error" at the moment. It's just "bug"ging me a bit. I may have to rewatch this video a couple more time to "register" what is going on...

[@travis.t7773]

nice

[@galahadrokuviii9546]

Hmmmm I feel sad that I had to perish..... But that's what I get for not understanding that a girl's first love could mean death. The robot was built with an emotion factor that provide evidence it was a girl. But still I might just want to pull A weapon an say: "WHY THE HELL DID I DO TO YOU!?!?!?!?!?!?!" If it were me!
