It's for those windy days, you know when you need to shut the window to stop the sideways winds blowing in. And kn those awful hot days when there's just that awesome cool breeze every few minutes or so, but it only blows sideways in one direction. They need to open the window then. No way that subtle breeze can get in to cool you through that wide open roofless hole 😅😅😂😂😂😂😂

LA ARGENTINIDAD, AL PALO

[@BigFan23472]

i speak spanish and tried to make some sense of the text the brain says, thought im not sure if im right or just recognising the bodies in the water. 1-fn almen te li bre - "finalmente libre" = finally free 2-j i j odebuu u - best thing i could come up with is "Hijo de buu" = Son of buu , kinda like the son of majin buu or something, dbz reference? 3-jmam a dera - "ja mamadera" = ha baby bottle, it could also just be regular spanish slang which is most probable

[@Ikworsu]

I mean, the 1st one is totally meant to say "Finally Free", I think the latter two are just gibberish that aren't meant to be understood, as the big head thingies do seem to be either a virus or some type of alien of some sort, so that'd be a somewhat good explanation why they're just saying total gibberish, I speak spanish and understood the first one at first glance almost, but the second and third. . . I had absolutely no clue what they were talking about and couldn't make out a single thing, so it's likely that the brain things were just either talking in a different language unique to their kind, or that they were rotting away (They were exposed to the air with no constant blood supply) so they stopped working shortly after to the point they couldn't make up sentences.

[@sasunarusai]

I can see what you're saying but I'm not a 100% sure. It's really hard to actually read those cryptic letters. I'm adding my interpretation of this: 1) finalmente libre = finally free. 2) hijo de puu/buu = pretty much "son of a b1tch". The second option (with the "b" instead of "p") is the same but it's like saying son of a birch instead. Trying to conceal a bad word) 3) mamadera = slang and an expression of surprise. Like "oh wow!" or "oh my god!" Also the forecast comments are hilarious. I must joke about weather forecast at least once a week. Is this an argentinian thing? 😂

[@witchypeoniflorallungs3044]

We don’t recognise the bodies in the water 👀

[@lukarizzi1654]

Hijo de buuu is a kind of bizarre slang here for "hijo de puta", translating literally to "son of a bitch" although mostly told with a different tone than the english expression and usually said to convey frustration similarly to maybe the english "well, fuck me" said with humour. Given the developers constant use of jokes and bizarre references to our culture it's very likely that that's what it's meant to say. Same case with the third one, it's difficult to explain slang and expressions from here but I'm pretty sure it's mamadera and you nailed it.

[@Ikworsu]

@@lukarizzi1654 I've never heard "Buu" being used as "Puta", is this normal? Like maybe "Pu-" as in the person stopping themselves right before finishing with "-ta", but "Buu" is not quite the same as "Pu-", they sound sorta similar, but that's it.

[@NaturalFlirtGamer]

_Linden tea apparently does not help big head syndrome_ At the end, I kept wondering about all the people living on the second, third, or fourth floors of the high rises and if their heads just burst through to the floors above. Very surreal as is the belief in weather forecasts being always correct. I enjoyed the game very much. Also, you almost never hear of anyone making linden tea.

[@PanicLedisko]

This game is... shorter than I expected [I clicked on it without looking at the video length]. This feels more like an opening to a game than a fully fledged thing. I'd love to see the concept expanded some day, because its wonderful!

[@hedgethesledge]

Clicked purely because of the title and thumbnail, will watch later. Because DAMN this is gonna be my childhood nightmares. I used to dream about "big head tag" where if you were "it", your head would blow up like a balloon until you tag someone else. It was terrifying. And it arised by me turning on big head mode in ratchet and clank 3. It was a recurring nightmare until I grew out of it

[@McAllen07]

This is reminding me of a game you played on the channel years ago, calles something like "Don't Leave"(?). I'm remembering you were stuck in this dark room with a computer, and your sole social interaction was with a virtual entity who loved you, but you had to keep finding and paying "happy coins" for them to stick around. The only other light source in the room was a red neon sign that just said "DON'T LEAVE". Bighead's nighttime skyline reminded me of it.

[@codexcracked5740]

A fascinating game! The experience of something going horribly wrong and being unable to fix it, trying and trying to find something to do and make it better when nothing's fixing it, stress is just building and building. It has been a long time since I've seen a game harken back to The Buried in a non-literal way. This seems to be a metaphor for stress building, potentially from work or otherwise, before the rain comes, burying all underneath. Trying to understand the world and system and society, but its mass crushes you rather than allowing you a moment to try to understand the whole. This game reminds me of Junji Ito's S**cide Balloon story, which is a similar metaphor, this time for the Japanese societal work environment, overwhelming people with stress to the point that they unalive. As always, surreal games like this can be interpreted many ways. The apparent epidemic hints at The Corruption, of course, but the lack of disgust or bugs makes me question that. But I could be reading into this too much. Maybe this is just a very strange world, where the top floors of apartments don't have roofs and when it rains, people literally lose their minds. There's no way to deny the inherent absurdity of the concept presented, but I can say I absolutely love this game. The author definitely did a great job with it.
