Oh my gosh no way thank you for playing my game! There's a TON more secrets you haven't found yet though. :)
The legend is here! Hopefully Matpat gives your game the theory it deserves!
Yoooo, it's the dev!! I'm so happy to see your comment. I hope we see another episode of your game on GTLive, or perhaps some theory crafting, because there is just so much hidden lore that I NEED to see a deep dive of it. I'm looking forward to the next update of your game! You've done a stellar job so far. 💖
Congratulations on having Mat play the game. That is awesome 😁
Your game is fantastic and deserves still more love! Great work!
@@303elliott yo dude its kyle the cool guy someone pinch me im not sure if im in my reality
So no joke, the graphics were actually too high quality for their computer to handle. It's not supposed to be that slow and the subtitles are not supposed to lag behind like that
Not me thinking that was all part of the “creepiness” to the game 💀
Lmao, yeah the static at the start even looks low frame/laggy.
I can't tell if this comment is troll or not lmao
"I think we can handle high graphics right?" "Oh yeah"
@@Levi_The_One_The_Only It's not, 8-Bit Ryan played it and it wasn't this slow.
"Y-You took the keys to my house?"
Never fails to make me laugh
Andy is one of the most realistic indie horror protagonist
Weird how an apple is more sensible than a human in certain games. Especially when his friends offered Andy, who is an apple, to eat an apple, and he says nothing. No fruit cannibalism here.. hopefully.
@@cidercake4373 that game is so stupid
@@treystewart544 sure, your opinion. 👍
@@cidercake4373 that game is so glitches
Andy in the game is realistic because he is Thomas lol
I love that Andy is one of the most relatable main characters in a Horror game.
"We hid your house keys!"
"Why should I have to play your games to get back my house keys?"
"Wanna play tag?"
"No, I'm just here for my keys"
Sounds great! Let’s play!
I love how Andy Apple just seems like a normal guy.
Like "Um, my keys?" "In the barn, why?" "No I don't want to play I want to get out of here"
Things horror game protagonists should say but never do
"No I don't want to play I just want my keys!" GIVE THIS POOR APPLE MAN HIS KEYS!!
@@Hamsterjuices "but then I can't do my scary jumpscare :c"
It makes the game feel more life like, as if this whole thing is a script and the other characters aren’t following it, by taking Andy’s keys, Pumpkin guy appearing out of nowhere, stuff like that. Its really interesting (:
@@screenedat0m It's like they're all messing with Andy which would make sense if the guy who made it go put into Andy and the others are people who don't like him.
i thought it was weird that he was voiced by just some normal guy but then he was just some normal guy
Just in case anyone was wondering, the backwards audio at the end of the beginning message was,
“ Thank you beta tester. *Please free us all.* “
Ok cool thx
The game designers are playing it subtle I see
@@notaraven subtle and classy, as always
okay cool
I actually tried to read it backwards
Andy caves way too easily.
"We stole the keys to your house and you have to get bonus stickers to retrieve access to your property"
"What"
"It'll be fun"
"Oh okay"
"Just go into the barn, your keys are in there"
"But it's really dark in there"
"You'll be fine"
"Aight sounds good"
"You should go run around in the hay maze with me even though you just met me"
"But I'm here for my keys"
"C'mon"
"Oh, okay"
He honestly seems like he really does not like confrontation.
The true horror, social anxiety
Ain’t that the truth
Mood
And yet he’s somehow more sensible than most other horror protagonists
Or just extremely open to suggestion ig
The way Andy reacts to everything. The silence when he’s offered an apple, his responses like “Why would you take my keys?” and “No, I don’t want to play, I just want my keys!” It deviates from the usual horror game/movie protagonist who just goes along with everything blindly. It’s like even within the game, the whole thing is scripted and Andy isn’t in on it.
Ohhh i like the idea that its like the Truman Show
@@sunnydayzz0 That’s exactly it, I was trying to remember what it was called that was similar to that but The Truman Show is it.
Something to also be aware of: If you did each minigame in different orders, a different part of the story will be told. Just in case you didn’t know
Yeah, i noticed that 8-bitryan played this and got a body out of the water in the fishing game. i was confused why Mat didn't.
@@Chronicler9 thanks for telling me he played too
@@Chronicler9 I THINK LaurenZSide also had the body thingy in the fishing game
Dw he'll do before doing a theory for sure
I hope Mat sees this it would help for a theory
Looking at what the actual game was supposed to be, Andy was offered to eat a member of his species, got the keys to his house stolen by his friends, was forced to do games to get them back, and was locked in the barn after showing a fear of the dark with a creepy squatter pumpkin.
It's so funny to me that I can't find it scary. Man just wanted the god damned keys to his house.
@@Hamsterjuices same
@@Hamsterjuices same lmao
Poor Andy, he needs new friends lol
That blank, silent stare after he was offered the apple. This game has no right having such comedy gold mixed in with all the horror.
The real horror of this game is how bad Andy’s friends are. First they asked him if he wants to commit cannibalism and then they steal the key to his house, and im just at the start
Then they locked him in a barn with a demon, and overall ruined his freaking life.
things Matt may have missed:
-when pumpkin pete catches you, yes the words 'save me' appear, but so do the words 'save us'.So it's not just one person asking you to save them.
-in the axe murder scene, the man with the axe is the one saying 'You killed them!" and "stop lying to me", the man on the ground never said anything about his attacker killing anyone.
That last one is actually explained in the theory video. The man with the ax, Thomas Eastwood (the host for Andy's character), is actually being forced the by the Evil Entity (Peter the Pumpkin's real form) into murdering his own family and the man on the ground Arthur (Clous the Clock's host) is his friend whom he's also being forced to murder against his will. Just saying, as MatPat says, a "reluctant follower".
@@dafilmqueen556 What is an ax
@@brian93724, what do you mean? I meant axe
“The time was supposed to be happy but she could feel her skin peeling off” that is what is says when the error occurs.
AMOGUS
one of them also said "it's not her fault" at the end with a mess words before.
This needs to be a theory there is so much hidden lore and hidden texts.
@@sus7471 the amount of lore that goes into this game is intense, and also the game itself within the game has a whole story behind it (basically the computer this fictional game would be played on was also created by the person who created the fictional game)
@@screenedat0m yes i agree
Yelling at Matt “ no cherries don’t grow on vines they grow on trees”!
Ah yes. How could we forget George Washington cutting down the cherry vines. lol
Me too, that bothered me so much.
Funnily enough, cranberries do grow on vines (and aren't cultivated in bogs these days). While we're at it, "olive grove" is the usual term but "orchard" and "plantation" are out there, too.
@@andrewmillar8254 wow
This killed me too!
48:47 the look of silent horror on matts face as he slowly processes the error screen is an emotion that i feel in the deepest parts of my soul
Everyone in game is super in character and then there's Andy, a normal dude, asking all the real questions
Intentionally failing the minigames give you lore.
edit: If you fail in the fishing game, you see your son
if you fail the melody game, you see your daughter
if you fail the apple game, you see your wife
edit: you already failed the eye spy and tag games, and got their cutscenes.
why has nobody replied?
also who is the guy in the eye spy game?
edit: and the thing in the tag game?
@@SuperFanatic22731 Clouse the broken clock represents the man you trusted to watch your kids.
He was too late to save them, he was too late to help you, he was too late to escape you.
Pete the pumpkin is the demon that watched you, and egged you on to "avenge" your son.
god that’s so creepy
What about Margaret tho
Prove yourself to be terrible at sorting fruit.
MatPat's playthrough of this game had so many things in it that I've never seen on any other playthrough of this game before! Interesting... Very interesting indeed.
Same, i do think that for.me.it was because of editing
Ahh, thank you for the heart! 💖 I was having a rough day and it definitely cheered me up seeing that notification. Thank you.
I must add that the developer of this game is a genius requiring you to play this game brand-new multiple times to get a bigger picture, or by watching other people's playthroughs. It's the perfect formula for CZcamsrs. Even the simple order you play the minigames gives you different bits of the story. It's such an interactive design and something I haven't seen in a while since the earlier days of FNAF.
was it
very,
very
interesting?
@@Hihi-zk3pc yeah.
Man, I just love the story where George Washington doesn't lie about chopping up his father's cherry vines
Matthew and Matt blanking on cherry trees and agreeing that they must grow on vines is absolutely WILD to me
Matt needs to wear that Security Breach merch when he inevitably plays the game. It'll be a Security Breach party!
I'd love a security breach party though
Matt as the night watchman
Complete with a Team Fortress 2 dub
That’s be pretty epic
Wouldn't that...
Breach the guidelines?
I'll go home
Is it not weird that Felix is “fishing” for his own fish brethren?
andy's "apple farm? Or is that him giving birth and putting his babies up for adoption
Good point!
@@Pika782 this reply is cursed
@@axel.1020. but true
Cursed
Headcanon: Margret's name starts with an "M" because she's a mastiff
She's a mole! It says so on the steam page
@@creepstr4678 mastiff
If you think about it, Peter collecting pumpkins is like if a human would be collecting severed heads.
I swear my heart sunk to the bottom of my stomach when I finally noticed the subtle but absolutely horrifying image on the right side of the options menu... it wasn't until 48:58 when I first noticed it, I have genuinely never been more scared in my life until then. Correct me if I'm wrong but- do you see it too? I looks like a messed up face staring at the audience.
edit: I can't believe Mat didn't see it even though his cursor was on it
Oh now i see it...i think
Oh god I see it now. There’s also one on the fake blue screen as well
It’s a messed up version of Andy if you brighten the screen, i think it’s the Thomas corrupted Andy.
omg true
Huh- thought it was just a smudge on my screen but you’re right
The scissors could easily just be for her hairstyle. She used the scissors to "cut" and "style" her hair in the way it is. That was my immediate reaction.
Not to mention her green room is some sort of "makeover" attraction, if I'm remembering correctly.
That's what I was thinking. Also, there's a salon or something in the Pizzaplex as well, if I remember correctly from the pictures Dawko showed off
@@daleharden1749 is her attraction makeover themed? I wasn't aware of that and was wracking my brain about the hairdresser theme for the shirt. I definitely noticed immediately that the shirt has a salon chair, a hairspray tag line, and that those scissors on the sleeve are hair cutting shears.
Yeah, in the shirt there is a salon chair she is standing next to, so I just assumed that she was a hairdresser,
Thank you, that’s what I was thinking
I can just imagine the characters while Matt sits at the error screen saying
“God when will he restart the game”😂
GOOD ENDING:
Louis was scared of the water so he stayed home
Thomas didn't turn to alcohol
Kamryn & Isabella stayed away from the fire
I’ve put a lot of time into solving this cool story’s puzzles and secrets.
I’ve translated a lot of he ciphers and even spent an hour decoding binary.
The main idea we can get so far from this story (including elements from solved puzzles) is that this poor family delt with a traumatic event that ultimately tore them apart.
Father and game creator Thomas East wood and his wife Kamryn Eastwood had two children the oldest being Isabella and her little brother Louis. One night Isabelle Louis and someone else went out on a row boat in the lake, and louis feel overboard and went missing.
Thomas starts losing it, taking the incident out on isabella to the point the parents separate.
We know Kamryn died in the fire that destroyed the house, as for isabella i’m not 100% sure what she’s got going on.
Kamryn’s potential love interest after Thomas leaves is Arthur, who is murdered by Thomas. ( who is also his best friend)
We don’t completely know if Louis is dead or not, as in decoded messages “I don’t blame her” is repeated in response to Thomas blaming isabelle for the accident. We also don’t know who else was on the boat when Louis went missing.
However we do know that someone knows what Thomas has done, as in the final decoded message at the end of the game is
Edit 2: (i wrote it incorrectly lol)
“Thomas, don’t ask for help nobody can save you now”
All in all i love this series to death and would love if you covered some of these elements or if you can help me with the two clues I haven’t been able to solve!
Edit 1: format change :]
Edit 3: Hello! I have joined the official discord for this game, and found the answers to a lot of the secrets I wasn’t 100% sure of so let me clear some things up.
(MAJIOR SPOILERS)
The large section of binary was cut off, the entire message reads
“ She was so scared from what happened she couldn’t tell us the truth. It wasn’t her fault”
There were also a few clues i missed/glossed over.
In another of the secret end screens a Cesar cipher reads “Thomas Eastwood got us all trapped in here”
The only other cipher i missed was a translation of “Louis Eastwood” under his missing poster in a secret frame
Another Cipher langue appears as well that I didn’t catch, one saying “please save us” and the other “yet” repeatedly.
The QR code leads the the website to where you can play the game for yourself.
As well as all the information about the creators and link to the Discord, all the information presented has been confirmed in a Google Document in the Discord.
I think it’s safe to say that Isabella is dead too from the fire, considering her soul (or whatever it is) is inside the game with everyone else and also it’s pretty unlikely she survived the fire
ALSO it’s theorized that the someone else is the demon/manifestation that posses Arthur at the end, and that also caused Isabella to freeze and watch her brother drown (or fake drown) at the lake (:
Impressive
Well done, I’m surprised at how you managed to piece this together with some parts of the messages being off screen
Just since you seem to know most of the secrets so far, I'm curious if you saw the face on the right of the blue screen of death, closest feeling I've had to my skin crawling
Dont feel bad mirror mat. Jason also almost never preplayed game, when he did it was for like 5 minutes
I love that these people aren't even your friends, they're just complete strangers that took your keys and told you to do stuff for them if you want to get them back (and then betray you by locking you up in their barn with a crazed pumpkin instead of just giving you your keys back)
Title: "If the Walten Files were a game"
Me: Isn't that literally FNAF?
Maybe because it's more based around a farm?
yes and no, FNAF is supposed to be scary and its jump scares are quite fast moving which gets your heart beating but The Walten files is unsettling, it has distorted faces and audio that you can only just make out, its a slow burn, it makes you see what’s has happened by keeping the scene there just for the right amount of time and that’s what makes it so scary. FNAF is similar but The Walten files is more disturbing
but this game is following the idea of the unsettling slow burn type of content, but it still is similar to FNAF but falls into the Walten files a bit more
@@granolanbar9892 So fnaf has basically become the base of animatronic horror, 80's horror resturant, and dark heavy lore for video games and Walten Files?
Wanted to share - I wore my Game Theory scarf to Chem lab today, and met a fellow Theorist! Glad I got to share a moment of fun with her over your channels. Thought you might enjoy.
What’s wild about this game is that every play through I’ve seen has had a different variation of events happen, some people get the dead body in the lake, some get the weirdness with the dog, some get the freak out with melody, and some don’t even get the “deceased” with claus.
“You took…the key to my house?”
Has the same vibes as:
“He. Ate. It. He ate. My pencil… HE ATE MY PENCIL!”
Anyway. Me too, Andy.
My favorite thing about this game is the fact that if it didn’t have a story behind it it would be a story about how some terrible friends took Andy’s keys, left them in the barn, forced him into doing their chores, and then trapped him lmao
I love that Appi is just "OH BOI my friends pushed me into this weird dark building because they stole my key, I guess I'm just gonna not call them assholes because I'm family friendly "
I like when Matpat asked Matt "Would you eat other apples?" and Andy answered "of course I would" 13:21 - 13:24
Game suggestion: You should play “It’s not me, it’s my basement.” It’s a very interesting and creepy game. I’m sure you’d love it!
"She was supposed to be happy but she could only feel her skin peeling of" bro who hurt you o-o
We're you peeled like an apple.
Maybe it was the wife when she died in the fire, slowly burning to death and having smoke fill her lungs, her flesh boiling off of her now scorching soon-to-be corpse
31:19
Matt: "Eat your heart out"
Melody: bet
*Boss music intensifies*
I literally just screamed "yes" when I saw this upload cuz I've been wishing and waiting for you to cover this game!!! Currently obsessed with it! Can't wait to see the next chapters!
Also hoping for a lore vid 👀👀
Title: "If the WALTEN FILES were a game!"
Bunnyfarm: *"baby i'm not even here, i'm a hallucination"*
Both Felix and Thomas felt guilt and regret after killing someone.
Felix with Ed and Molly, and Thomas with Arthur
Mat Pat should do a 3 channel collab on Courage the cowardly dog. Game can be on the "cancelled" courage game. Film on the show. And food can test if Muriel vinegar recipes would be any good.
Matpat: if you were and apple would you eat yourself?
Andy:Of course I would!
20:13 "the time was supposed to be happy but she could feel her skin peeling off"
24:28 couldnt make it all out but something about a lake and it not being her fault
42:55 prob binary for a lot of it but the engish reads "i just wanted to see my family again i knew what i was doing was risky save us help us"
13:22 the timing of andy voice is just perfect with what matpat asked
Personally i LOVE the "witty banter" sections of the videos its interesting to see the Matt² interactions
They should form a podcast called Matt: Squared
@@rootgotter355 I'm 💯% down for this
matt 2, that's funny
Agreed
Matt squared
MatPat: "You you were an apple would you eat another apple?"
Andy: "Of course I would!"
The scariest part about this game, is losing your sanity and patience.
he is so right about the start having Charlie the Unicorn vibes. they were just constantly trying to get him killed
YES THE WALTEN FILES IS OFFICIALLY A REFERENCE WHEN MATPAT TALKS ABOUT THINGS WE'VE DONE IT
MatPat screaming at a jumpscare is scaring me more than the jumpscares themselves xD
Offscreen Andy finally gets his keys, his groceries sat on the doorstep so long everything went bad. He now has a carton of yogurt, potatoes are growing out of the bags...
Feels like Thomas made a deal with some creature or entity to make his game either more successful, or make his character feel more alive.
Alternatively it also seems like this eyeless entity was preying on Thomas, making him go insane and going through great lengths to fix his own game, unknowingly killing his friends and/or co-workers. Maybe the entity was controlling him? Thomas seemed confused and afraid when he killed the other guy (I forgot their name), almost as if he wasn't aware of what he was doing. Or maybe Thomas thought his friends were disappearing and the other guy was to blame, and that's why he killed him.
Idk, just some thoughts
I was waited with bated breath for Matt to play this game! I can sense the theory already.
One thing a lot of people don't notice is the face on the right during the "blue screen" when you try to start the file with 8 bonus stickers.
ALSO, I'm starting to think that Peter the Pumpkin is a police officer/sheriff of some sort, because the broadcast during the fishing minigame mentions the Pumpkin County Sheriff's Office.
I thought the Peter Pumpkin was the dark entity?!
The Pumpkin County and Peter Pumpkin thing could also be a coincidence, or the dark entity took the shape of a pumpkin because of the towns name? I don’t know man this game is wild
Edit: also man your vision must be AMAZING if you were able to see that face, it took me a while to even realize there was something there, let alone a face
@@jadedplacebo24 I actually was thinking that as well after MatPat let him get all the pumpkins and there were those weird images of it. Now I'm not sure. Maybe a mixture of both? It could be a coincidence that they live in Pumpkin County. Or maybe there's a bigger picture. We'll just have to wait and see in the next update! Either way, I'm intrigued.
@@screenedat0m It would be crazy if there was something more to shape of the entity correlating to the name of the county. Like, maybe there's something wrong with the entire county and the entity is the cause of it. That, or it's just a massive coincidence.
I used the music app on our old Nintendo 3DS and reversed that dialogue from 7:25, the outcome was, "please free us all"
Edit: at 36:21, Claus says, "deceased" backwards
Massive applause for remembering the 3DS could do that! I think i fiddled with the sound app on there as a kid and then never looked back
@@niksooxyz thanks! I kinda just figured that out because we had lost it several years ago when I put it in my sister's toy Chest. However, unlucky for her -since it was *her* 3DS originally-, it had *my* favorite 3DS game in it, "Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon" so yeah.
I just watched Ranboo's gameplay of this game and I noticed that some of the lore cut scenes are different. Very weird and interesting...
What MatPat didn't finish in the text of the first minigame was "She could feel her skin peeling off."
Definitely something he should check out for a GT episode for the lore like he said he might. For the "OH NO!" screen, maybe the audio is Andy is eating apples and that's what the creepy factor is. The face thing is like the pumpkin and there's a glitch at the end of the screen when the man in the orange turns red then the second before it ends,, gets iconic GREEN EYES. Hmm Andy is red with green eyes too...
It's really weird when horror games as simple as this require such high graphics quality that it lags the computer.
In order to get all the lore, you have to do things in different orders.
We can all agree that Andy needs better friends.
I think Andy's Apple Farm is more like the Battington files "Harmony & Horror", both involve dads who sacrifice their entire family to give life to their creations
I just finished watching 8-Bit Ryan's play through! Now I get to watch Matpat's play through!
Hey Matpat! There are some hidden easter eggs and lore if you try to say "no" or try to break out of the mini games!
I wont say all of them, but new dialogue appears depending on who's game you play first, and strange things happen if you try to say "no" or try to break the mini games! (Also each door in the barn gives a different secret ending screen)
Like in the fishing game. Tell him "no" for a secret surprise.
And spoilers for this!
If you drag the body at the bottom of the lake across the riverbed after being forced into the game, you get a creepy message that says "you know exactly what you did" with faded binary just below
01001011 01100001 01101101 01110010 01111001 01101110
I went and translated the binary and it came out as "Kamryn"
So here's a theory for ya to add to this mystery! Who exactly is Kamryn, and what does she have to contribute to the story of the game?
Also, something different happens if you bring the body back to the dock ;)
Kamryn is the wife/mothers name actually! At 32:00 you can hear the MC mention Kam, short for Kamryn (:
Fair enough! Though that does also lead to the question, what was it that she did if that line was meant for her?
"You know exactly what you did [Kamryn]"
Did she do something to cause the son's "disappearance" since that line is tied to the body in the riverbed? Is that why she was trying to convince her daughter that it wasn't her fault that her brother never came up from the water? Or was she really cheating on her husband with his best friend since it's accusing her of doing something she knew she shouldn't have?
There's another string of binary hidden away in here that im trying to decipher, hopefully we can find another interesting clue in there xD
@@tsukiminrai5880 Most likely the cheating part, but you do bring up a good point. Perhaps she’s the one who gave the kids permission to go on the lake by themselves, which the Dad didn’t want, and thus inadvertently caused the little boys death
Fun facts: Felix's minigame is fishing (cannibalism?)
Melody's song is "twinkle twinkle little star"(in which she is a moon)
there's a clock on Claus' minigame for no reason
Everyone's commenting on how relatable Andy is as a protag and I'm just here like "cherries grow on trees wtf"
this game hits different when your name is andy
☠️
Nice to see you played it! A theory on this would be pretty cool :)
The code at 34:35 is a basic code shifting every letter to the left by one. "this is all your fault"
“The time was supposed to be happy. But she could feel her skin peeling off”
“I just wanted to see my family again.I knew what I was doing was risky.I didn’t want it to turn out this way.”
“Free us Save us Help us”
now we need an ACTUAL Walten Files game like Bunnyfarm
I personally love just listening to them talking at the start of the video no matter how off topic it gets lol. Love how I’ve been watching this guy since I was like 5 and just remembered to subscribe to gt live and film theory now. Lots of good memories with this guy, even though I never met him hahahaha…
Alright, having watched other playthroughs of this game, I thought the movement speed wasn't quite right. Then I saw the static effect and realized that it was super choppy, almost as if the game was running at a low FPS. Thinking that I might've been going insane, I went over to Dawko's video but sure enough, everything was much faster and smoother.
I just think it's hilarious that the only time Mirror Matt has recommended playing a game at high settings is also the first case of the poor old GTLive PC being obviously unable to do so.
Just how freaking stupid ARE you people??? O_o The "High" graphics mode runs like this on literally ANY/EVERY COMPUTER! It's a deliberate joke by the developer, the PC isn't actually lagging!
I think one of my favorite eighties/nineties video game tropes is, "Hey, friend! We're just relaxing and having lunch. Say, wanna play a game? Great! We already got these McGuffins for you to collect from us, and determined a prize for you if you collect them all, but just you though, all this is catered exactly to your interests and pleasure!" Like imagine being one of these friends, getting called at 6 AM by Claus the Clock or whatever cause he had this idea where everyone else pools their money to get Andy a gift, but they don't wanna just give it to him; Andy has to face a trial first, even if it's just hide and seek. Is this a normal thing friends do to each other and I just have terrible, non riddle demanding, non trial creating friends? Should I start looking into the logistics of making my family jump through hoops for their christmas presents? "Thank you for the books, Grandma, but to receive your gift, you must answer me these riddles three! The riddles are in the form of haikus on audio tapes, and furthermore, one of these riddles lies while the other two tell the truth only to the pure of heart!"
Sorry, I got a little carried away.
Hey on a side note, please make sure you're not on the road to burn out! Rest when you can, you look kinda tired and I don't mean that to be a read. I would hate to see you crash cause you're so dedicated to what you do, remember self care!! Your passion for your job is incredible, but just don't forget to care for yourself along the way!!
I grew up on a farm, delt with fruit trees frequently. We had cherry trees and a few sour cherry bushes (90% pit)
Funny thing, in the 1930s or1940s I had a family member who would splice random fruit tree cuttings together. Eventually, we had several trees with pear, apple, peach, and apricot branches. When I was born, the trees had stopped producing fruit...but we can still find some trees on the property that have 3 or 4 different type of branches (but no fruit)
20:13, the text under the error thing said "The time was supposed to be happy, but she could feel her skin peeling off"
23:44, I watched someone else play this and they got another catch before the mini game ended and another glitch happened that had more story line. Also the person was playing in high quality, so maybe that's why?
31:35, the person I watched went up and not to the right, when they went up they got a different cut screen type thing instead of the video tape that Matpat got.
42:06, the person I saw play failed the first game and got a pretty interesting cut screen.
54:45, nvm matpat got the odd cut screen when he restated it.
56:19, the glitch texts unscrambled says "Do not be afraid Thomas, (and then something I can't read)"
I am very excited to watch the game theory for this game!😁
18:11 unless your talking about cherry tomatoes (that grow on vines) no cherry's don't grow on vines, they come from a tree so yes it would be a cherry Orchard (though bananas also grow on trees but get called a plantation not a orchard so ?)
12:20 that’s not a fish… he’s a Gilman (see the Skylander Gill Grunt as a reference)
Mat, cherries 🍒 DO grow on trees…
“What is this game?” A glitch festival!
Also did anyone else notice that Melody’s song was twinkle twinkle little star ⭐️
Came for the witty banter, stayed for the ending jumpscare that legitimately made my skin crawl.
Just letting you know, Mirror Matt, cherries do grow on trees and bushes (my family has a sour cherry orchard)
Apples, Pears, Cherries, Plums, etc. all are very closely related and grow on trees.
I love how MatPat is avoiding House of Ashes at all costs.
Hint: there are way more Easter eggs you missed than just one. There was a part at the hub you could collide through, you could've taken the other path on melody's game, and you could play the games in different orders. You can also exit the barn through different paths and get different images other than the promotional poster.
i love andy’s reaction to claus offering him an apple to eat and his friends saying they took the key to his house
he said 😀
Ya know something’s wrong when your eyes start to melt out of your head… good advice for life Matt, never would have known…
i’ve never been so proud of myself, i figured out that the garbled words at the beginning probably say “please save us” because the letters e and s line up in the words of you were to use the symbols as letter substitutions.
"please free us all"
I've been waiting for MatPat to play this! I need the lore and timeline for this game!
SAME!!!! I just said this earlier this week to my partner!
SuperHorrorBros did one already if you're interested in watching that
@@TheNinjaNiky that was the first one I watched that got me interested in the game. I follow them as well!
@@jadedplacebo24 I know someone else did one too but can't think of it, if I remember I'll let you know
@@TheNinjaNiky I appreciate that. Thanks so much!
Honestly I'd love to see more people play this game. I was first exposed to it when Ranboo did his playthrough and it's fascinating to see it different when played by another person. There's so many layers to it, it definitely deserves more attention.
I think this is my favorite banter, just seeing mat trying to explain the plot of the books to mirror mat is funny, also it was relevant to the channel.
my favorite is the argument over where cherries come from lmao! if cherry blossoms grow on trees I wonder where cherries come from hmmm...
From dawkos playthrough it seems like you get different glitches and errors each time! That’s really cool!
Fun fact!! The qr code on the blue screen is a link to the game's download page!
Mat: yeah, eat your heart out, years of dancing ...
Melody: *went all full hard rock on a harp*
me: *deflating like a balloon full of helium*
An apple farm has apple orchards in it, they are filled with different types of apples. An orchard is something that exists within a farm itself. In some cases farmers have orchards of different fruits and other vegetables within their farms.
inb4 swarms of people complain that Mat is comparing two different IPs again. "hOw dArE yOu cOmPaRe tHiS gAmE tO wALtOn FiLeS!!??!!??" Can the man not compare similar ideas anymore?
Also if you think about it, these two are similar: tragic event involving a family (plus a family friend), dead kid specifically, souls trapped in things (game/animatronic/vhs tapes) and everyone’s favourite: childhood trauma (:
it IS getting a little annoying seeing him think its always murdered children just because of FNAF, tho
@@sarafontanini7051 Funny because I never even mentioned fnaf, only Walton Files. So really you just did exactly what you're annoyed of Mat doing.
@@Levi_The_One_The_Only i was going off of the 'compre similar ideas thing' with my own personal gripe.
alsoI'm accusing matt of always assuming the thing is murdered children due to FNAF, so I' not doing that?
Its funny how one month later and pretty much 0 people are complaing about it
So you're still technically right about being inb4 that crowd, so that's one right thing (unless of course a swarm consists of like 2 people)
As matt says would you eat apples if you were an apple Andy says yes of course. Great timing
20:04 The message that popped up said
"The time was supposed
To be happy
But she could feel her
skin peeling off"
