Piglet's big game - Creepy and Eerie Ambience Compilation

I'm not a game developer, but that's a nice idea for a horror game with a protagonist suffering from heavy anxiety and paranoia. Like you have to do mundane tasks but all is presented as a horror. Like you walk out of your room and the hallway is this liminal inferno.

[@aortaplatinum]

@MitridatedCarbon The Silent Hill games and Hellblade both do this, but not to that extent.

[@TheGamegirl543]

I actually got this game when I was a child, asked my mom to buy it and still have it. I was somehow always intrigued by horror even back then so to me, it was a unexpected surprise when I played it. But it is astounding that they actually made it this scary - relatively speaking for kids. I can see some kids either not catching on what is going on or be terrified for a while.

[@TwoTailedCaperer]

Petscop was the first thing that came to my mind; the music, the ambience, the off-putting aura mixed with the bright colors and bouncy sounds. Even the enemies are mildly unsettling, you can hear the Heffalumps trumpeting and Woozles laughing menacingly as soon as you walk in a new room, but you can't see them right away due to the camera restrictions.

[@TheGamegirl543]

I can definitely see it. Horror is one of my favorite genres so I always loved the game for that. People aren‘t wrong in saying it is „baby‘s first survival horror.“ I was always scared of the Wizard Woozle but there‘s other ones that are also scary. As you mentioned not being able to see enemies, one thing you CAN do is listen. Almost all enemies make some unique sound so when you enter a room, you can hear who‘s in before seeing them, and that adds to the scare factor. I was always freaked out when I heard the Wizard one XD

This is actually terrifying. Everything feels so out of place for a "children's game," and I absolutely dig it!

[@Zosalot]

The angles, distorted world and ambience make me think this could pass as a Little Nightmares game.

This using some of the same samples as SH2 explains a lot, honestly.

I thought my kid self remembered this game as being way scarier than it was. Turns out I remembered it correctly after all. Also, IIRC whenever you revisit a level, all of the friendly NPCs and frankly almost anything to interact with is gone, which just adds to the weird liminal atmosphere.

[@MarvelsScreamSimp]

This game is genuinely SO good at being eerie. Indie horror devs need to learn a thing or two. Just watching this genuinely makes me want to look over my shoulder

[@karnas1mp]

I once read a comment that says “ a horror game / movie that uses jumpscares to scare you is like a comedian who tickle you to make you laugh “

[@hhjhj393]

Ehhhh. I do think jumpscares are a part of the horror experience, but they have to be done well. They aren't necessary, but I don't think they are bad. They are one tool someone can use. That being said I agree one has to use them with high consideration. But if horror and humor both rely on subversion then a jump scare would be more like slapstick comedy IMO. Both are quick and target more primitive areas of the brain.

[@wannabestrega]

I love how Piglet has some goofy sounding footsteps

[@librarianslivedoublelives]

"TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP"

[@TheTaintedWisdom]

10:53 - This works better when approaching from the other direction but I *LOVE* this camera placement and movement. The way it tilts up to show the scale of the environment, being so low to the ground to show how small Piglet is, but the cherry on top is the foreground rope dividers: They fit with the environment, provide separation without obstructing your view, and said separation coupled with the tracking and focused camera movement makes it feel like something is actively stalking/hunting you/Piglet.

[@WasabiKitCat]

This is unironically some Petscop shit. The juxtaposition of the goofy sound effects, Piglet's colorful model, and the cutesy loading screen against the bleak and detailed environment and the Silent Hill-ass soundtrack is what does it for me. It's not in this video but some of the cutscenes also remind me of Petscop, with the weird and abrupt cuts and cryptic-ness accompanied by lighthearted sound effects. I was fully expecting the game to get into some weird cryptic out of universe lore or something to really seal the deal.

[@Flac_the_Wave]

This has real American McGee's Alice vibes, I love this

[@thegaspatthegateway]

Especially that one room where the ground is cut off and the pillar Piglet is in is spinning around (or the room in the pillar is spinning around?)

[@misterdewott8766]

I LOVE THAT SERIES

[@skelemama]

Fun fact: Pascal Stradella, the game’s director and a former employee of the defunct developer Doki Denki Studio, has confirmed that Resident Evil and Luigi’s Mansion was an inspiration for this game. I’m honestly not surprised, considering the game’s unsettling atmosphere and soundtrack.

[@WhatABeautifulDuwangChew]

I find it so goddamn funny that Piglet's Big Game is trending right now. I remember discovering it when I was younger and writing it off as a stupid Winnie-the-Pooh pseudo-horror game where you either scare or get scared, while admiring the unusual, surrealist angle of the plot.

[@biondu8699]

Its super crazy its for 3+. I would be too scared to play at age of 11!

The only thing i know , is that this game now is a Masterpice.... Just for the fact that we are in PIGLETS perspective.. Piglet is scared of everithing. That makes sence....in the game.. we are Piglet we have to be scared xD

You would not expect a "stupid kids game" to have such a deep idea behind it Because now his Character makes so much more sense piglet is an adult with severe anxiety issues

[@mrps2dvd2770]

Winnie the Pooh blood and honey wishes it could be scary as this. Jesus Christ how did Disney seriously fully approve everything for this??

[@StateOfTheMind11225]

Courage The Cowardly Dog taught us to be brave and fierce in the name of danger, cunning and wise to those who blurs the line between evil and good. Adventure Time had moments like these too. I think kids should atleast have a sense of danger and horror, not to an extent of trauma but a sense of bravery that should be rewarded with a sweet or nice ending like Courage always sets up in the end. I think games like these wants kids to be brave, and in those brave moments they will treasure that happy ending even more.

honestly, if the enviroments were just tad brighter this really wouldn't be as eerie as it is. It definitely feels like an aftermath of a party, but now everybody is gone you know, like, a few hours before it was sprawling with life and happy faces and now that the place is empty it just feels wrong. The dutch angles, the camera being always so further away like a predator watching it's prey from afar.

[@ModestZach]

I never thought I would see another game that manages to capture Luigi’s Mansion vibe of “not actually that creepy, but something definitely feels a little off.’

[@thisisapictureofmydog.isnt9208]

The power outage part of that game is what scared me the most

[@gutterR0t]

I really, really love the concept of cute friendly characters traversing eerie dreamscape environments within kids games. It’s like that lacking context and feeling of not being able to remember if it was all just a dream or not that you have throughout you’re later years after being a 3 year old in the 2000s watching your older sibling play an educational video game and not being able understand what’s happening. The world is too big and you’re too small to fit in it.
