My only real problem with a lot of EXE games is that, no matter how hard they seem to try and do the Sonic.EXE formula right, they always end up falling to the same tropes. They'll change things up, sure, but every last one of these just ends up being a "wait for the jumpscare" simulator. It'd be nice to see one that doesn't use jumpscares to scare the player. One that actually lets the game itself be scary, rather than rely on a burst of adrenaline.

I actually have a concept for an EXE game, like, imagine the demon or whatever inside the game is giving you a chance to stand for yourself, so you have to go through all stages, defeat robots, save the day, just like a normal Sonic game right? Except the demon keeps pushing you to a corner more and more until the boss fights and stages are eerie, you have to fight cursed enemies and bosses. I'm still drawing the concept art for the game and stuff, it's still on paper and i'd love to make this a reality. as for the atmosphere, just get a normal sonic game like Mania until the eerie parts, the eerie parts would be kinda like Metroid Fusion with a spoonful of Source games' atmosphere

Someone needs to make an EXE type game that actually has some subtly. No monster until you're *deep* into the game. No foreboding warnings, no blood, no gore, no scares at first. Just an odd, disconcerting feeling. You know something is wrong, but you can't figure out what. Eventually though, the scares begin, but there's no jumpscares, or images flashing on screen, just very very subtle things. A sprite that looks wrong, your character looking directly at you with a different expression than usual. Just subtle things like that at first. By the end of the game though, you could completely jump into spooky territory, but it would be so much more effective if it were handled with more subtly.
@DJays42 жыл бұрын
Ok so I'm late but eyx did do this for the most part minus the one Jumpscare and warnings just switch the order and its that. But claiming it has no subtlety because of a couple tropes that come up once is just extreme. If you want something that does this though there is a Mario 64 rom hack that will give you what you want and it's on this channel today.

No I think Ultra has a point. This game is much better made than most Sonic.exe reimagining's but it also has a lot of in your face moments, even if they aren't straight up "jumpscares". I feel like it could've spent more time on buildup and added these things in over time.

I think this game is good, but I also agree with what your saying. I love it when games build up to the horror. This game kiiinda did that, but it didn't last long, and you already knew what the monster was before the game started due to the starting screen, which ruined the subtlety to me. Not to say it was bad, cause I don't think it was. But yeah, having the player sink to a comfortable state, just playing a game, having small things pop up out of the corner of your eye, the smallest of out of place textures, models, that would take a second glance to notice, and maybe small skips in the music to start off with would be a perfect slide into the real horror. As the levels contine those smalls errors in continuity getting easier to spot and things go missing, and the monster ever so slightly letting parts of themself being revealed to the player would leave a distressing feeling in the player. Just constantly waiting when it all comes crashing down. That's good horror to me

Sonic.exe was a product of its time I think. The black dripping eyes with red dots and HiPERREaLiStIC bLoOD was a whole internet phase for a solid 2 years. Luna.exe is another example of that phenomena. Sonic.EXY verges on a more recent aesthetic for horror - the Mandela Catalogue, Walten Files sort of style - while keeping the very same mechanics. Maybe at the time it would not get as much of a reaction, specially considering the demographic was much younger and probably lacked some innate sense of uncanny valley-ness.

What I love about EYX is that we don't truly know what this creature is, nor it's motivations. It's out to kill the characters in the game, but most importantly, it's aware of the fourth wall, and it will do anything to get close to it. Unlike Sonic.exe, EYX certainly uses it's fourth-wall breaking abilities properly. The Crystal Lake scene, while a beautiful level, was definitely handled properly; it gives you a breather, then painfully reminds you that this is still a horror game. also ngl, I thought the creature itself was supposed to poke fun at the fact that Sonic doesn't appear to have anything separating his pupils in his official design at first.

EXE with the blacked out eyes still feels like Sonic just with a eye problem EYX feels scary cause it have features that are so inhuman and impossible (One large eye,Limbs that drag on the ground, the empty mouth, the large teeth smile, and the large height) it activates our brain to perceive it as a threat

I feel that this game symbolizes the endless amount of creepypasta games and that, in the end, it's just watching characters suffer for the sake of entertainment. Characters are shown begging for YOU to stop, not the latest demon. Characters are also shown coming back after death, as if it's a different route in other high quality exe games. Lastly, there's Knuckles's questions and the theme of characters staring at you. This game actively asks if creepypastas are really a good thing and if it's morally justified to endlessly watch fictional characters suffer for our amusement. After all, they weren't the ones who asked for this pain, it was you. Even Sonic.EYX seems to have something against the player with his frequent 4th wall breaks and manipulation. He's giving the player what they want, sure, but it seems that every kill gives him more strength. If you keep playing, he's going to give you a taste of what these characters have been suffering for over a decade.

2:50 Those two characters are The Feeler (the one who pushed Tails) and The Watcher (the one who pushed Feeler away). Both are different interpretations of Sonic.EXE, just like EYX. 5:57 You forgot to mention Ray trying to communicate with the player, as shown at the top left. (Sonic Please Stop Somebody Help Me) 7:34 That part is not true. Sonic.EYX's creator, Kaua16, explained EYX isn't an entity that "possessed Sonic". 10:57 Even if it's dark, one can easily tell this isn't EYX but Ray the Squirrel without any skin on his face, completely eyeless. The shape of Ray's head is quite noticeable. A hand grabs Ray's head and pulls him down, which is EYX dragging Ray. 12:32 "Ray's image is the only one not destroyed" but that's Amy Rose's image. Ray's image is 6th image/top right. Fun facts: When LuigiKid played the game, a unique jumpscare appeared right when he started the game, catching off-guard. This jumpscare only appeared in his first Sonic.EYX video and no other KZbinrs got this jumpscare. The game gets a secret when April 1st comes...

Another thing you missed is if you try to shove off EYX's "MEET ME AT THE BEGINNING" and instead go back to the end, you'll have a countdown that's around a minute long before what I can only describe as EYX if he was Tails grabs you.

A fun fact is where it says: score,time,and rings, during ray’s scene, those words change to messages like: sonic stop please and: somebody help me. Then the final one is: player save me as ray either stares at eyx or at the player while he gets taken by eyx. I think this is a cool Easter egg. | | | \ /

I've got to say this is the first time I actually genuinely love the look of the "sonic.exe" in this game. Solely since it gets rid of the overdone creepy smile and bleeding eyes and instead looking like a genuine freaky monster of sorts.
@anijay642 жыл бұрын
The concept of a possessed video game character staring at you is very unsettling. The first sonic exe fan made game that I know of that shows us this is lord X. There are a few times where he breaks the fourth wall and looks and you. But making a entire game based on that idea is genius. Sonic even tried to turn your camera on.

Actually Gear, Ray's portrait in 12:35 is destroyed. It's actually Amy over there on the very bottom. It's actually Modern Amy as opposed Rosy the Rascal from Sonic CD, who died based on this cutscene in 9:20. You gotta go frame by frame, but when you see it, it's hard to miss.

@deidarafangirl9112 жыл бұрын
Look at the text in the upper left corner from 5:32 onward. It keeps changing from 'Score, Time, Rings' to things like 'Sonic, Stop, Please', 'Somebody, Help, Me', and 'Player, Save, Me'. I really adore little details like that. The only way I think it could be more impactful is if it read your system to call you by name. Although depending on what your told your computer your name was, that might make it /lose/ effectiveness. 'Eric, Save, Me' if your name is Eric would be scary, 'Big Chungus, Save, Me' wouldn't be lol. And you totally could save him too. Just turn off the game. I have a love/hate relationship with media like this- media that doesn't want to be played, watched, or consumed. Movies like Funny Games or games like Deltarune. One on hand, it can be an important reminder to examine what you're watching and make sure you're not turning into some gore-hungry ghoul. On the other hand, it can come off as insanely preachy and hypocritical if handled poorly. I do think it works best in horror media, though. It's very 'The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You' which is a fun trope.

Some fun facts, things you didn't get, or things you got wrong: -The villain isn't a possessed Sonic. That's an entity called EYX, which haunts the rom hack and does whatever it wants, like a computer virus, and leaks information to a mysterious, malicious group on the internet, which worships EYX. Also, the entity has 2 known forms. This Sonic form, called Draenog, and a Tails form, called Cynffonnau (but they are still the same entity). -The game tells you to play in Windowed mode because the title bar at the game's window constantly changes its name to talk to you, like at the start of the game (the glitching during Green Hill Zone shows messages on the title bar, trying to warn the player to not go any further), or after Ray gets killed (the pair of red eyes show up on the screen, and the title screen tells that the player could've avoided all of that, but now it's too late, and says that EYX will be watching the player from now on, before the eyes close). Those messages are pretty important to see what the game is trying to tell you -During the Ray sequence, the score/rings/time texts are changed. When he's running, they spell "Sonic, stop please". When EYX is coming, it says "Somebody help me.", and when EYX is about to catch Ray, it changes to "Player, save me", while Ray looks directly at the player with tears in his eyes. Also, Ray appears in Sonic Mania, not Generations. -Right before the start of Crystal Lake Zone, right as Sonic leaves the screen, you can see EYX coming out of the bush. And in Crystal Lake Zone Act 2, right as Metal Sonic pushes Sonic and Eggman laughs at him, EYX can be seen behind a rock, ready to attack. Also, when Sonic sees the capsule in the distance, you can see someone else for a split second. That can be either the fucked up versions of Ray or Amy (it's random) -During the cave part, what appears before Tails isn't EYX, it's Ray, but without his eyes, as if he was trying to tell something to Tails or the player, but quickly gets pushed back . There's also Eggman's distorted face in the background (you can sometimes see his nose and parts of his mustache). The destroyed corpse that Tails sees is Fang the Sniper/Nack the Weasel, who was most notable for his appearances in Sonic the Fighters (as a playable character) and Sonic Mania (as a "boss" character). And if you look for a split second, when EYX charges at Tails, you can see that Tails tries to turn around and run for his life, but gets caught. And finally, at the end screen, the one that was alive wasn't Ray. It was Amy (her original, Sonic CD version)

This game does a far better job breaking the 4th wall than most. It stsrts violently shaking the gamewindow if youre playing in windowed mode, ot starts repeatedly changing the name of the window, UI text changes to talk to the player, it makes fake error messages requesting access to your Internet and webcam, and the jumpscares become progressively more broken and glitchy. It really feels like EYX has a much deeper knowledge of its existence within a digital medium than most other EXE's seem to. The entire game feels like EYX communicating directly to the player.

What I really like is that it doesn't try to follow in the footsteps of the copypasta by trying to recreate the events described in it. While it looks like it might go that route at first, it quickly becomes apparent that it's not following the 'sonic.exe script', It's not trying to tack on some sort of fix-it fic final boss to the story, it's doing it's own thing, doing it its own way, and it's all the better for it. Because it doesn't follow the creepypasta, you don't know what to do expect, allowing it to throw you for a loop a lot more than most exe games do.
