Blood is a plasma containing iron that transports oxygen throughout your body
Rust is formed when iron oxidizes
@Hippo Pilot Sounds like a great B movie concept. I'm pretty sure our venal structure is built to be air-tight, considering that "air" in the heart would F us up, buuuut I'm just a Phlebotomist, not a heart dr.
@Hippo Pilot No problem broham
Sooooo rusty blood?
Hippo Pilot wasn't expecting this but it's interesting either way.
@Hippo Pilot ... it s rust. that's how it carries the oxygen, by rusting.

Ever wondered how a game like .flow would feel and look with.... actual good graphics and in 3D? This would be... quite terrifying.
I'd imagine it'd be something like LSD dream emulator. The game which starts off a little unsettling and gradually descends into pure insanity. A surreal world made up of pure weirdness that you dare try to make sense of. Weirdly enough there is another Combo game very much like Silent Hill + Witches House called Yomawari Night Alone, it's less abstract but still a powerful game.
One hell of a great Monstrosity.
@Tayebz Tayebz :3 Man, you get what I mean. I don't appreciate senseless nitpicking.
Sometimes i found Yume Nikki a pretty dark game, but this...
.flow seems a really really disturbing one. Even without any jumpscares or anything like that and that's truly amazing.
There was one sort of jumpscare I had the misfourtune of running into... :C
Cyan Tanker Which one?
Cyan Tanker Wow, I think I haven't heard about it. And haven't seen it by myself but I'm not surprised since I haven't been playing the game a lot.
It sounds pretty interesting though.
Devon Aoki Yes, I think I got lucky and stumbled upon a random event lol...
Yeah, it's random, and very rare to boot. Not only that, but that area (which I call the Alleyway) was only recently added in 0.192, which as Nitro said was the most recent version.
Although it's not the most obscure event in the game... That would be an event I like to call the Tea Party, which requires you to eat cake at the Sugar Hole ten consecutive dream sessions. Once you do that, a staircase will be freed up and you can trigger the event. I have NO idea how this would have ever been discovered, except by some guy who just happened to be totally loaded in in- game money and ate at the Sugar Hole way too much as a result.
you hit the nail on the head, Japanese study English concepts in psychology all the time.
There is very funny interplay in terms between japanese, english, and German of all languages and this is not coincidence.
Using Serial Experiments Lain as an example to help explain something is probably one of the most counterintuitive things I've ever come across.

A Fun Game for Nice Children.
wrong game
H
A fun game about fun for fun children by fun people.
indeed.
If I ever have children I'll make them play this when they are good
i prefer to call .flow "yume nikki's sister game". siblings are often similar in some physical aspects but different in personality. yume nikki was more about psychological twisting of the mind, relating to physical trauma. .flow was more about physical horror, which is derived from psychological damage. tl:dr, some ppl did mado the physical bads so she's mentally scarred and sabi is mentally scarred so she does herself and others the physical bads.
also that Sabi is fucking hot.
Big T. Larrity Dont.
..Everyone is now mentally scarred.

n o
a dot is often used in programming as a type of command just like /
for example .save
That's only if there's a connection between a variable and a portion of it in a certain action.
Like _write recordname.stringname('type here')_ will write "type here" in the variable "stringname", which is on the record "recordname".
There is no meaning for a dot to be at the beginning of the sentence. It'd make more sense if it was as Nitro said, or if it was made like that so it looks like a format, like .exe or .dat, etc.
its called .flow and not flow for a reason then since its about computers
fenafeses That's like saying Yume Nikki is in japanese instead of english (Dream Diary) because Madotsuki is japanese. Like, what the heck is that reasoning? Lol.
@Sany Suny or...
.hack!?...I’ll leave
In linux or most unix based systems, files that start with a "." are hidden
I’m sure someone’s pointed this out already, but depending on how you spell Sabitsuki in Japanese, you can get 錆びつき, 錆 meaning Rust, and 錆びつき possibly being
R U S T E D
no her name means rust
literally
R U S T
so rust_010's name would translate to
Sabitsuki_010
@@ftrwar While 錆 does by itself indeed just mean rust, 錆びつき as a whole means “To rust together, to be rust covered, or to be rust eaten”.
It could just be my interpretation, but the definition that fit the best was “to be rust eaten” which implies that something was already covered in rust. Hence the past tense in the OG comment. But it’s been a while since that comment, so I can’t say for sure what my interpretation *then* was.
@@auselessmage5347 yo og commenter here
i used google translate for that im so sorry
ok.
Her name is Rusty
The way I see it, Sabitsuki is a patient suffering from a terminal illness. These "dreams" are actually Intensive Care Psychosis, which is essentially a type of fever dream people get while in life-threatening situations. Rust could represent her being on the brink of death, with her deepest memories resurfacing.
Edit: Having completed the game, I think I can get more specific and say that Sabitsuki is dying of AIDS. There's a lot of imagery suggesting sexual aspects of her life and perhaps even prostitution - maybe she was having a hard time in life, decided to try making money as a prostitute and got HIV from someone.
I'm convinced the suggestive stuff at the Love Hotel isn't directly related to Sabitsuki.
(Warning: Spoilery theory stuff below)
1. You need to eat 5 cakes at the Sugar Hole to unlock the "Sugar Girls" area at the Love Hotel (the one with the giant girl statues in suggestive poses). Those cakes are bought from the Gas Mask Maid.
2. The Sugar Girls area is randomly accessed by interacting with a faceless maid at the Love Hotel, either suggesting that her face is unknown or Sabitsuki doesn't want to remember it.
3. If you go all the way through the Sugar Girls area up to the Vomit Girl and the following corridor, you'll find an unreachable Sugar Girl. This probably implies that something happened to Sugar Girl and she couldn't ever come back to what she was before. Note that you access that corridor through the Vomit Girl's face, which might refer to the faceless maid from earlier.
4. There's another path in the Sugar Girls area which is an exit. If you go that way, you'll be back at the Love Hotel in the bathroom with a maid lying down on the ground.
So far, the way I see it is that the Gas Mask Maid and the Sugar Girl are one and the same person, Sugar Girl being her past self and Gas Mask Maid being her present self. Back when she was younger she was working as a maid at the Love Hotel (or maybe a prostitute roleplaying as a maid?), and one day a client sexually abused her in the toilet. That's when she got pregnant with Sabitsuki. This could give an explanation to "Who is Sabitsuki's dad?", why Sabitsuki was so distant with Sugar Girl ever since her childhood (parental neglect due to Sabitsuki being an unwanted child?) and why Sabitsuki eventually ran away and led a rebellious life.
I don't think Sabitsuki ever has been a prostitute, but I think it's highly possible that her mother (Sugar Girl/GMM) used to be and she ended up with a daughter because of what happened at the Love Hotel.
I'm still working on my theory, but this is what I think of this part of the game.
Did anybody else notice that Sabitsuki goes to sleep with the computer, but wakes up in her bed? O_O
Yes! I found that usually strange.
+Emily Clark Its because the computer is close to the bed, and it probably was an animation error.
I imagine she goes on the internet and dreams about what she saw on it's fucked up side.
its*
Rusty Fisher *you already spelled "it's" correctly, doofus!*
What a Bright and Happy game!
You could always just leave Sabi in her bed and let the 'Heaven' track play on forever :3
...he was more than just a hammer
I play this when i'm depressed
1:47
Yeah so happy
YAY!!!
I wonder, is Sabitsuki really a bad person on her own, or is it all Rust's influence?
The Effects you collect do make you think some dubious things about her personality.
It's something to think about.
She must have gone insane from her suffering from her disease.
Most certainly, it's especially evident after certain events near the end of the game. But what I mean is, Sabitsuki showcases traits about herself that make you question her personality and morality even before that. The pistol, the black dress, the gun, the hoodie, psychedelic and the lead pipe are all effects she holds onto even before she changes. Even while initially playing .flow I almost began to become disgusted at her. Then there's that one event with Smile and his Sister at their house....
[SPOILERS]
But then are hints that Rust has always been there with the Red Body area, albeit weaker or dormant. Then there's that peaceful music that plays when she's sleeping, where she seems the happiest by far. It's hard to hate her for these things when it seems like none of it was ever truly her fault.
I dunno... I think too much gangrene and blodd loss caused her to be isolated thinking she is a kaibutsu, or a cursed child. And this isolation, combined with the nightmares she’s in, be it if she’s awake or in her subconscious, caused her to be so mad.
I'm guessing that Flow (which is the feeling of total immersion in a difficult task) means that Sabitsuki's dream state is just her concentrating on her computer and forgetting the world around her. Also. I think that Smile looks similar to Lol.
yeah. it makes me think she's fallen into a depression and become obsessed with watching morbid things on the internet, neglecting her own physical wellbeing in the process (represented by her rotting & staining her room with blood, but i wonder if it's representing the physical discomfort of poor hygiene & bed sores). but the more she watches, the more she is confronted by her own past traumas, and the more she delves further into the internet to distract herself from it in a state of 'flow' instead of accepting reality. the recurring imagery of soulless children & faceless people makes me think she's dissociating and becoming physically sick as a response to her mental troubles.

This video being created in 2014 but having 2022 quality video makes me so happy
I think one of my favorite changes you get from exploring as Rust instead of Sabitsuki is the event where you get jumpscared by a chaser in an alleyway. Sabitsuki gets teleported to a maze, and her sprite is visibly freaked out when you escape. Rust just pipes the enemy to death the instant it's near you.
i think she doesn't enter to a nightmare world . she is in the dark places of the internet and she gets crazy after see a lot of shit . and the ".flow" is a kind of ".com" just like ".onion" (i don't know how to speak on english [thats the reason why my words doesn't make sence])
Good, toned-down theory. I like it.
I agree. I think she is on some kind of deep web ( hence the .flow) and seeing all the inhumane things is making her scared, lonely and depressed. I think the blood on the floor after nightmare sequences is just her blood from self-mutilation after seeing some sh!t on the deep web.
Flow also refers to a psychological term for extreme immersion.
Oh my god this video was eight years ago??? Jeez, it doesn’t feel like it…
I like the game especially because, to me, it feels like the narrative was told very well. I do like the visuals, the atmosphere and how unsettling the game is(Much preferred over most "traditional" horror games)... But such a style of game - no text, no clear information, complex narrative - actually being able to tell such an oddly precise story when it comes to the key-points, is pretty awesome.
It would make sense that this is one of the only one of the prominent dreamers games that still receives care from its creator, lolrust.
Since, y'know, he's not MIA (Nikki), or went mad (LCDDEM), or became completely ass-blasted to the point of abandoning their work (Nisshi).
Kappadaniel
Koronba? He never gave a reason, but he did issue a 'sorry'. It's speculated that something happened that he didn't want to remember and the game served to remind him of it.
He completely removed himself from the internet entirely as of this year now too, deleting his twitter and so on. I'd speculate that he was perhaps suffering from depression.
Zenmaigahara on the other hand got really butt-hurt that their game kept getting to the West despite their efforts to prevent that, so in an incredibly petty fit, announced they were ceasing any work on Nisshi.
how did the creator of lcd dem go mad?
bad meme
Something happened and he wanted the game to cease existing, not just stop working on it, but specifically requested that everyone remove anything related to it and never mention it to him.
Then so many years later decided, without notice, to take down every bit of online presence he had, as well as remove all of his music that he uploaded to the internet.
Maybe people kept bringing it up, dunno.
That depends on whether or not you count Yume 2kki, which at this very moment is getting world-blasted by this ONE user named Spelude. She already had at least 20 worlds before 0.105c but then added at least _six_ more worlds in the aforementioned update.
The good news is that she's not half bad, although a lot of her worlds are rather empty.
Yume Nikki attracts strange people who see themselves in Madotsuki so this isn't surprising. Not even saying that as an insult, just an unsettling fact.
Honestly I love .flow, Lcd Dem, Yume 2kki, and Yume Nisshi, but there is still one other fangame that I love even more. め (Me) its surprisingly not as popular as .flow even though it is very creepy. If you have never heard of it or seen anything from め you should download the game. Its kind of like Lcd Dem because you have to collect orbs. There are only 11 effects but most of them are useful. This game is slightly different then other games because NPC's can talk to you, and it has a backstory which is revealed in different areas in the update 0.05 and 0.04. And one last thing... Eyes...
If you're up for it, I'd definitely recommend a very obscure fan game called Someday. It's shockingly good!

I love his this game really feels like it’s own thing, it’s a Yume Nikki fan game but it has it’s own identity, it’s using the same engine to tell its own story with it’s own personality.
I really like your reviews. I can't get enough and I'm so happy there's finally a channel that I like that really reviews much more indie games. Would love reviews of IB, OFF, Gray Garden, Wadanohara and the Great Blue Sea, The Witches House and more Yume Nikki fan games. I know everyone knows these games but, I really like your reviews so I would totally find them enjoyable. Good work man! You're hilarious.
Oh shit, and I'm a bit of a youngling, so I'd totally love some reviews of The Mother Series. I just never got into them and I'm very easily spooked and just anxious about playing games myself, so maybe this will help me explore for myself. Thanks! ❤
So I gotta ask, with all these RPG Maker games, have you ever played LSD: Dream Emulator on the PS1?
It's similar to them: You're given ten-minute dreams, in randomized places where weird and freaky shit happens. The longer you play however, the backgrounds will intentionally become glitchier and glitchier.

Keep it up!
The so-called "flow" state can be engaged and controlled via the activation of the Kundalini impulse. It is a direct negotiation with one's sense of trajectory and will amplify other senses. We call it "dilated perception", or "time warping", as you can also manipulate your perception of passing time, effectively moving faster. There is a great deal what can be accomplished this way that seems a lot like glitching the game in ways. Life can be played much like a video game, most people are completely missing the "effects". These games are representative of reality.

You went over a lot of good points about the game and why it's such a favorite game of mine. Yume Nikki is the classic that started it all but over time I've come to find I love .Flow more and that's mostly due to aesthetics and "story".

I don't know if this is used in the game or not, but I found something really interesting in the game files. in the pictures folder, there is a slideshow (various progressing images) of what seems to be Sabitsuki's room slowly becoming more bloody red and horrid, and what looks like Rust breaking into her room while she is asleep and carrying the iron pipe
It's holloween baby coming back to this classic
at first i actually wanted to play .flow, but after seeing this video, NOPE NOPE NOPE SO MUCH NOPE
@Layne Krusz Technical difficulties are common with japanese rpg maker games. good luck on trying to fix it
Any chance you'll do more ynfg videos in the future?
I understand you obviously can't do them all but at least 2kki as well. Since it's special in a lot of ways; First fangame, largest (and a collaborative effort of 2chan users), and the other "arguably best" fangame next to .flow.
The stories these kinds of games deliver us is wayyy better than movies
The feeling you get is unique
Wow that was a Great video!
Another great review. I really like your RPG Maker game reviews, NitroRad. They're why I subscribed. I hope to see more great videos like this in the future! Also, are you making a Christmas-related video?
Probably not.
Good stuff. I haven't played RPG maker games since 05. It wasn't till I saw your reviews that I realized people were still making good games with RPG maker and that it wasn't just a fad. Good stuff. I am enjoying your reviews. Specially games like this as the usually get over looked by the gaming community.
Can someone help me? When trying to start up .flow it messes up. The game starts out fine, with static room but whenever I press enter or space my game will crash and this message will pop up: "???,,™??????" Can someone please help me? applocale won't even let me start it up because "im missing a file" or something like that and I can't find any way to start it up on the internet. Please & thank you.
You dont need to switch it back.
I think you needed to put your PC on Japanese before extracting the .Flow files

Dude! I remember recommending this one to you on your Yume Nikki video! I absolutely flipped when I saw the thumbnail. Dot flow is one of my favorite fan games and you discussed its themes very well (as always). Have you read the manga by any chance?
The Yume Nikki manga? Yeah, I read each chapter as they came out. Good stuff.
Oh no, I meant the one for .flow, but the Yume Nikki one was good too.
I had no idea there was a .flow one.

I swear to god every rpgmaker game has an earthbound reference I SWEAR
i absolutely would say it's a better game, the smaller and more interconnected world is so much more enjoyable to explore and the story is more detailed and interesting. yume nikki is still great but .flow is more like an /actual game/
i don't usually get scared by much, horror is my absolute favorite genre of all media. but for some odd reason this game creeps me out SO much. it gives me so much anxiety and makes me feel like there's something behind me...i love it!

I wonder, have you seen Dead Hole Rust event? It makes me so sad :
CZcams says that the game featured here is Flow... not .flow...
Two very different games, I see.
I couldn't help but notice over the past few videos of yours I've watched that you have some sectoral heterochromia (the brown in your left eye)! ^^ I also have this and its always exciting to see others that share this trait, seeing as it is kind of uncommon. A while ago I made a video about it, but I made it private because I got embarrassed about the poor quality and how it is so old and how I looked kind of terrible in it...
:D

I checked everywhere in case theres something in another folder I need to fix but, idk..
+Serena Webb I have the same Problem!!!! i need help!
I just now noticed that the broom effect is a kiki's delivery service reference
As cool as this game was, I wouldn't necessarily call it better than Yume Nikki as some people might, think I've heard of that somewhere anyway...
But like, I'd say it's mainly too different to even really compare them.
While .flow is kind of dark and disturbing with what seems to be a clearer story, Yume Nikki is arguably the best one at exploring the vast expanses of Madotsuki's mind, and getting lost wandering around in there is like literally getting lost in your mind, your deep subconscious. :p
There was also both light moments and dark moments in her dream, and it's not just one big theme, that's what I like about it. :p
Sometimes these games make me think less of exploring dreams or memories and more like their soul, going inside their own selves...
Also, the original game seems to explore social anxiety (hikikomoriness) and depression really well...
When it comes to these themes, the original arguably does this best, but I kind of like that fan games seem to kind of have their own thing too, but if they also use some elements that Yume Nikki had especially just because as a parody, I feel like it doesn't work as well. :p
just finished the game and it was great!
First time i heard of this game was on a secret level on the Doom mod "
Spooktober Community Mapping Project"
I once found OST to .flow on the internet and the weird visuals of it (picture of mouth showing sharp teeth along with the title) made me think it's some sort of cyberpunk vampire game.
What this game really is might be even better.
Have you considered making a video covering the Dream Diary Jam?
