The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe is an A24 Film

The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe is the long-awaited, expanded re-imagining of The Stanley Parable, an interactive comedy-adventure video game originally released in 2011. In this video essay and review, I compare The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe to the expansive catalogue of A24 films-particularly in reference to the game's unrestrained, artistic vision that gives it the same, weird vibes that A24 movies have. Let's take a deeper look at the game and see just why it's beautiful, coherent vision makes it a worthwhile play for your time.

Love the channel! Really underrated too. I feel your pain man, back then i used to make really long videos and dint get much views in return and that really demotivated me at times. Thats why nowadays I focus more on shorter videos and surprisingly enough i get much more views now than usual. Hope this somehow helps cause I would love to see the channel grow!

I'm not generally a fan of games that try to be artsy and philosophical over fun gameplay, but Stanley Parable's meta-narrative was just too hilarious for me to ignore! And since I played Ultra Deluxe first, it really helped me appreciate how far Davey has come with his writing, but also how he was able to perfectly capture the style of the initial release, while still improving on the humor!
Also, mad props to you for not even talking about the Bucket very much, and *still* convincing your audience that this is a masterpiece!
