By drinking the milk, you should be able to weaken the concept of reality within the limited separated dimension to be able to breach the space time double folded barrier that forms it. Be careful not to drink all the milk though, as the lack of a sustaining concept would collapse the reality within the dimension, and depending on the strength of the quantum string bonds holding the double folded barrier in place, it could either collapse instantly with you still in it, leading you to be trapped in a pocket dimension that exists outside of space time known as SCP-3001, or it could lost all meaning and cease following any laws that govern the universe. BE WARNED: the SCP-3001 scenario will lead to an extremely slow and painful death, as the pocket dimension as an extremely low hume level. This means that organisms trapped within it decay extraordinarily slowly, being able to lose 70% of their body and still biologically function the same, and this process takes years of current dimensional time. The pocket reality is devoid of all matter, and the high hume level of the organism trapped within it will slowly drop to the hume level of the the pocket dimension. This means that flesh will melt off bones as hume levels required to sustain the organism's existence, such as the presence of organic atoms and molecules drop into unsustainable levels. (hume level represents the "strength of reality" in a given area) TL:DR, dont drink all the milk. See you again soon for more Dimensional Tips!

[@emilchan5379]

For a game as insane as this, I am surprised it actually has a backstory. The store manager, or rather "manger", is probably that Carmen wrestler fellow's son Goliath. It was mentioned that the son suffered terrible limb injury in an accident, and yup, the manager doesn't have any limbs. Also elsewhere it did say the store was built over the location of a sentimental wrestling ring. So the son probably built the store over it after his father died. However it seems the manager doesn't know that his father was part of a cult, and that their hideout entrance is at the dumpster. That is probably why he warns you not to take too long to take out the trash - because he saw suspicious people at the dumpster. As an aside, I am surprised Manly didn't mention the maze jumpscare or the Dashcon reference.

[@waitwhat3833]

the maze one, yeah surprised about that one too. but i feel like the dashcon one is.... better not to mention.

[@troin3925]

Also, “Manger” actually means “M.Anger,” the family wrestling name.

[@troin3925]

It’s surprising that the lore of this game manages to be both hilariously weird and convoluted, while at the same time being simple to understand when you look at the overall picture like with the wrestling ring.

[@sharkeep4269]

I think Manger is Goliath, the wrestling dude. As it mentions in the newspaper, Goliath had damaged arms, legs and face and he will never walk again, and Manger have no limbs and moves on the wheelchair. And the newspaper highlighting it IS in Manger's de-cursed office. Is that important? Probably not. I suppose it makes sense why he would put the shop on the spot the wrestler's ring was originally placed. Maybe.

[@sharkeep4269]

Wait, I rewatched the video and it does say (in Carmen's will) that Goliath wrestler's name/tite WAS M.Anger. So Manger is Goliath and he probably took the legacy thing about the ring too seriously and rebuild it into a shop after his accident, since he couldn't wrestle anymore. And Carmen, his grandfather apparently, didn't like it and cursed the place? That's how I interpret it now.

[@janedoe885]

Yeah the article set it up that Carmen left his fortune to grandson David/Davey, the wrestling ring to grandson Goliath (M.Anger, who lost all his limbs and damaged his face then repurposed the ring into a convenience store since no more wrestling), while grandson Mario who owned the pizza place you can order from got nothing because Carmen didn't like him. Arguably makes the Super Mario ending reference even more of a wink. We also got to see Manger/Goliath on the roof for his dinner date, but he looked to be alone? Kind of wonder if he was there with a pic of his waifu and just didn't catch a good look.

[@Agt_Seven]

Aisle 4 with the red flares at 26:00 is definitely a Cry of Fear reference! Glad to see these devs pay homage to a classic.

[@troin3925]

I didn’t realize that.

[@mekabare]

Yeah! The crawling zombies on 4 spiky limbs and throwing flares felt so familiar and I couldn‘t exaclty pinpoint it. Good catch.

[@MitreyK]

I thought I'd be watching this while snuggled up in my room hiding from the hurricane but as usual Miami always manages to dodge every hurricane last minute lmao, good luck to everyone storm prepping!

[@exclusivestudios]

The level of dedication this man showcases through completing all of the endings is badass...what a Manly badass hero he is

[@piegirl8263]

Who knew horror games could ever be soothing but with Manly it is

[@just_fishfish]

"how do I get down there--? Oh, there's water down there. --oh wait, I can't swim." 10/10 thought process right there

[@Dat_Scrub]

The fact the motivational sign is just “I’m at my fucking limit” absolutely wrecks me

[@LKMEW]

Crayon voiced the Silent Protagonist really amzingly. I'm still flabbergasted. It left me absolutely breathless. So much talent.. unbelievable. Well done!

[@S-Kevin]

This game are so old school. Bunch of today's trend, indies and early 2000's anime (Rei) and popular stuff mashed together. Made you feel nostalgic/relatable depends on your age once you recognize the reference presented in the game. It got some LSD Dream (Playstation 1) vibe too with the weird scary, mostly weird "Huhhh??" stuff. The dev really outdone themselves with the use of game engine. Props to Manly for 20h+ playtime, edit then upload before got hit by hurricane. Bless.

[@DelphinusPtolemy]

Everytime I thought this game was close to ending it just kept going. Truly the game of all time

[@corriganhammond4641]

This is incredible, your video on the demo was the first video I’d ever seen from you and had gotten me hooked. So glad to see the full release is finally here, it’s been a delightful year

[@starspawnedwarlock2686]

hearing the game devs voice and going "wait is he irish" and then looking around the background and being like "wait i know that mountain,,, WAIT A SECOND" was a trip

[@TheCabalOnMars]

I love how the "wrong number" achievement had the Richard mask for the icon.

[@andrearastifard174]

LOVE this type of adventure-horror-ish game, thank you so much for playing. I love the games you showcase, appreciate the work you put into them. Yes, the words I kept thinking were "surreal" and "parody/homage".

[@ohthatsabaseball5824]

"This game contains scenes" Thanks for the warning. I was really concerned about seeing scenes without a warning

[@hannahyoo4873]

Stay safe from the hurricane, Manly! Thank you for the upload! ^^

[@ryuujawzahr]

Very interesting game, and listening to Manly say "Señor Emanuel Hernández María del Carmen" would make this worth it by itself

[@taikathomson2204]

Tbh, I watched this whole thing and it was sure one hell of a fever dream- Everything was so confusing and disorientating to the point where it felt numb and I guess I had a feeling of wanting to get out of that situation and escape the loop and there was "hope" in the form of the cloaked guy (which I forgot/dunno name off) asking you to collect the pieces of the skeletons so that they could lift the curse but it felt like one of those games where the dude would betray you and the story would end badly leaving the main character is forever stuck in limbo but instead it had a somewhat comedic(?) climax with the final ritual being done at the basketball area and despite it somewhat being underwhelming you are then told that the curse is finally lifted; You could go home now. As you take the steps up the stairs, you don't see a dark empty void of a night sky anymore, instead, you see the warm lights of sunrise and your boss congratulating you for your shift as if nothing happened. Honestly seeing them walk out and seeing the sunrise, "Dreamcorp - Nevermind, everything's okay" started playing in my head internally during that moment. A breath of relief, knowing that you are finally free from the chaos. I know osts don't really fit the game cause I because I barely heard any throughout the game (If I'm correct) but ngl, a somewhat missed opportunity to shove in some memorable ost into that part instead of complete silence broken by birds chirping. Anyways, a nice, relaxing refreshing ending that is kinda different from the trope of other "acid trip" horror indie games and a breath of fresh air for me. PS, I also like how some of the abnormal things (like the black ghosts and the milk dimension) are still there, reminding us that the place is still strange in its own way but it isn't overwhelming and shocking to the point where it feels like you are still stuck in the loop and that the curse was never broken, not casting all your efforts to get out to the side but instead rewarding you with complete freedom for surviving the hell and insanity.

[@ledumpsterfire6474]

I love that the "mysterious report" basically suggests some group/agency was well aware of the fuckery going on in this place, but was basically like "Nah fuck this, we're gonna wind up dead. Just leave it, I'm sure it'll be fine."

[@BarryMcCawkiner]

"This game contains scenes." It's about time a developer puts that warning up. I can't tell you how many times I've started a game and been surprised by scenes!

[@omegafreddy12]

Before I even watch this video- I'm so happy you're covering it. I watched and rewatched the demo video so many times and was stoked to find this in my feed lol

[@GothicFoxglove]

Wow, I do love your consistency of uploading new videos. Thank you, Manly Senpai

[@justin2308]

Okay, so in the span of less than 12 minutes, your character has to do: -Your chores. -A coworker’s chores. -Your boss’s chores. Wow, the monster might be doing you a favor. Take this opportunity and get the heck outta there. 😂

[@PamelasEngel]

Thanks for sharing Manly. It’s been a fun game to play…and watch. Stay safe we’ll be praying for you guys.

[@LynnAgain83]

I just wanna feel the absolute joy and excitement Manley expressed when he was about to jump into the Anime world. Edit: Ok I'm a bit worried about the devs. This was a weird fever dream yet, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

[@FlyfishermanMike]

Check out cruelty squad for a truly bizarre, brilliant game.

[@gridmeter2571]

I mean one portal took Manly to gm_flatgrass who wouldn't feel joy?

[@Glorhbb]

The “YUH” whenever he throws something makes this slightly less scary for me lmao

[@rylashadow18]

As a person whose worked late shifts and doubles I can confirm this is indeed what happens.

[@The-Omega-Blade]

Can we appreciate Manly's dedication to drink EVERY energy drink and effectively made the store look like it got hit by a rave concert...

[@sabresister]

I feel like some of the goofy physics stuff like the flying pizza box the devs just didn’t fix because it was funny 😂

[@lymb3914]

"Before I go to work, I'm going to step outside and not work!" It sounds like you've been employed in the same industries I have, Manly!

[@MC-rk7yn]

Thanks for blessing us with a 2 hour video!

[@UndyingZombie]

The amount of references here is insane.. Games, old internet stuff, tv shows, anime.. Other horror stuff... Ect.. A lot of references is kind of a understatement..

[@Chisamayas]

The Dashcon ballpit caught me SO off guard, lmao

[@dorianlamb8824]

downright genius game, love what the devs did with it and loved ur playthrough Manly

[@ultimaT]

*Manly shows the picture of Anime to the shadowy figure* "I do not understand this item" Manly: Does anyone understand this item? *Immediately hurls it into the trash*

[@hawtdawgsausage4897]

I'm born and have always been living in a supermarket. Since the infinite Ikea. These are like calming bed stories to me. Your videos are something special😁
