There are so many secrets buried in Boneworks as it relates to Stress Level Zero's other games, especially Duck Season. There was still one thing left, after our last episodes, that I REALLY wanted to talk to you about. That is the connection between Arthur Ford, our Boneworks protagonists, and David, the protagonist of Duck Season. You see there is evidence that they are, in fact, one and the same. The SAME PERSON at different points in his life, circling back to where it all began and closing the loop. How did I come to this conclusion, Theorists? Let's get started.

Alternative theory, David's older self came back through time not to stop events, but to provoke his younger self into starting events.
Exactly
That's what I thought too
Yeah, otherwise he wouldnt have gone into thw void
*Mind blown in the voidway*
Matpat's theory is better as a narrative. Nothing beats a tragic time loop. Like Dark.
Mini theory: about 17 minutes
Regular theory: about 12 minutes
Me: .... is me logicaling wrongly?
Yes, but also no...
But where's the lie tho
@@shrubberyshrubs8508 we were on the verge of greatness, we were this close
@@protalghulnist4126 so true
@tanmay deshpande and just like matpat's diet coke addiction, it's more filling than the original.
'young david kills his older self"
now that is one heck of a suicide
So multiverse? Since there's no grandfather paradox scenario if the dog kills david
@@powerrangerkid16 just use Avengers time travel logic and you'll be fine
Also, the void is apart from time itself.
I thought that that's just how suicide worked? The older you isn't going to be alive if it's killed when it's younger...
That sounds awfully familiar to certain Counter Guardian's plan for time travel Suicide
MatPat: the void exists beyond time.
Space: am I a joke to you?
guess it doesn't matter
Hi
What do you think would happen if we split an atom
Lol the best part is that it kinda is, like the fact that they transfer digital matter into physical matter sorta makes a massive joke out of the laws of space. . .
There should be a segment called “Game Law” where we go back down memory lane for all the theories that were actually canonically correct

@@manio_e oh yeah thx
KnowledgeSource your mom flat lol
So, you're saying David's on the run because he'd be accused of killing his mother because...he killed his mother.
Oh my god why is this true
He didn't know that at the time though.
OHH MU GOD I NEVER NEW IT LIKE THIS
But he didn’t know he did until the time came
Welcome to the voidway logic! 😂
So basically if david lives, everything dies, and it is stuck in a loop.
Canon ending, david runs away, changes his name to Arthur, goes to the companies, enters the void, goes through the apocalypse, and then duck season all over again.
Pretty much
Yes, but it is a conditional loop. Everything that happens after fuels what happens before but the results of what happens before causes what happens after to fuel what happens before...
@@dikephobia yeah i totally understand what you said
The dumb thing is why would Arthur use the dog disuse when he himself know that David would killed the dog
@@KietNguyen-sx6jj probably because he tried to forget everything that happened that day and forgets David kills 5he dog
The way Matpat explains and lays out his theories makes me believe everything he says. Even if I definitely know he's wrong and have even watched Matpat say that he was wrong himself.
He would be a great politician probably why he's scared of doing a political theory and only does it sometimes when it come to wakey wakey and Scott

Monogon: *discovers a place where space time doesn’t exist and can also make people immortal*
Also Monogon: Yea let’s just use this to make a video game
Right? Like you have the chance to become immortal, and you decided to throw away that for a chance to make VR Chat. People would literally pay all their money to become immortal.
Hey, yu gi oh did it so why not
To be fair developing a complete virtual reality world before the year 2000 is a bit more than just a game.
Cash money baby
Maybe the people in the VR world are just test subjects to see how void energy interacts with the human psyche. Considering that the only entities to come out of the void so far have been a killer dog who if Game Theory is right used to be human and and a trickster cat I’d be just a tad worried that prolonged exposure would turn you into a power maddened killing machine, Equestria Girls style. So testing its effects on people you don’t care about ie your customers seems smart. Unless they turn into an army of the damned and murder you, but that’s why they were minimizing the risks.
Here's a comment theory: The dog could be David's step dad which is why we have "Bad Dad Bad Kid" and why David's biological dad isn't there. DAVID'S MOM, HAD AN AFFAIR WITH ARTHUR. David's biological dad, who I suspect works for Gammon, used the technology from his company to trap Arthur. But Arthur escapes and understands how Gammon is more defined and better than his current company. This is why there's a room with artefacts from David's House specifically instead of others from the other 12 victims. Once Arthur escapes, he gets back his job so that they could research him. Arthur is AWARE of the void which leads him on his mission to become immortal. Also why the door says "Welcome Home". Because he's been there.
Also he may had wanted to do this as revenge against David's bio dad. Because he can now control everything that gets uploaded into mythOS, he could potentially make David's bio dad's life hell.
But that's just a theory, A COMMENT THEORY, thanks for reading😋
Yeah I was actually thinking maybe Arthur might be something else cause if you see Hall of the robot king, there is a blond protagonist, what if THAT is David fighting against Arthur who has become the Evil entity. And yeah maybe the dog isn't Arthur's BIOLOGICAL dad... So maybe the guy in the dog costume is not the real father and kills the mom for the affair and wants to kill David because he's a child of affair.
This could make a lot of sense

Maybe the dog's psycopathic behavor is related with him having already lived the Machine King apocalyps, wether is him the master mind behind the machines or not, all the stress, trauma, killing and warping throu planes of excistence let him not only with the mission of killing his mom and himself in the past (thing that actually wouldn't work since it would provoke a paradox) but also with a shatered mind and sadistic behavor most of the time, this would also explain why the dog has such a smoking habit, the nicotine maybe relaxes him enough to not totaly lose his already decaying sanity, but hey, thats just q theory (sorry for any gramatical mistakes, english is not my first lenguage)

Or maybe a game theory
Remember the Polybius Game Theory? Of course you don’t. THEY don’t want you to know.
Little addition I wanna make, it could be that in different timelines, all the endings are canon, and each ending is with different Arthur-dogs from different timelines as well. While this world's Canon ending has David on the run and growing up into Arthur, he may go back as the dog with a different goal and cause a different ending, which loops to cause another different ending, and eventually it comes full circle to cause the Canon ending to in order to stop the mom from working on her game. The different endings cause different futures and motivations for David/Arthur, and most of them cause him to feel the need to go back and try to "fix" what happened as the different entities in the different timelines release what's in the void.
About the hair change: it’s possible. Blonde hair often turns brown after adolescence.
He mentioned that
Next time on Game Theory:
Matpat has a mental breakdown while trying to figure out ways in which Duck Season, Boneworks, and the FNAF universe could be connected in some way. With a time travelling ball pool, any things possible.
MatPat has already had 7 distinct mental breakdowns, most notably being him delcairing that Sans is Ness, and that the Pale King is the Knight...
Sorry ur late
What youn don’t realise is that security director ford is actually ness, who is actually sans, who is actually pink guy, who is actually actually Smith from accounting, who is actually Batman

13:42 It could also be the fact that David (Arthur) suffered a very, very traumatizing event, that his mum was brutally slaughtered and butchered and that a man in a dog suit escaped a game and then attempted to attack David. So it could be trauma that changed his hair and eye colour.

The fact that David is running away because he could be suspected of murdering his mother, is such a huge point that Branch is out and could make any theory connecting other games with it, colossally outrageous but also possibly true.

The adequate amount of force
Here’s a point you didn’t mention. In the two employees’ conversation in the last theory, the unknown employee mentioned that the only company that has already tapped into the void was “Sabrelake.” Flashback to your playthrough of Duck Season VR. In the Easter Egg showcase room you discovered at the end of the stream, there was a model of an officer in full uniform. Next to him was a logo labeled “Safety Agent Sabrelake.” This agency is obviously tied to the Sabrelake company mentioned by the Monogon employees and the “Hall of the Machine King” game. Through this information, we know that Monogon wasn’t the first company to tamper with the void, and could have possibly caused the events of “Hall of the Machine King.” But that’s just a theory...
A GAME THEORY!
Hmm, that's how 9 could've came into being, since they are clearly from the void
A short theory
A possibly substantial comment theory
A game theory
This gives me the scary feeling that he may be right. I mean... for once, everything adds up, there aren't any loopholes, no loose ends. If this theory is true, Matt Pat is officially a prophet. Because through all of his theories, he is either completely wrong, or 100% right.
I have a theory, after the ending of duck season where the dog dies, David is put in witness protection where his name is then changed and was adopted afterwards by the Ford family. He works on the other side of the company that created duck season, he is trying to destroy the dog permanently and that’s why he works on both sides to destroy the dog and save his victims, or the shadow figures from the ending. He worked for the other company to get into the void so he cand defeat the dog and the other cryptids once and for all.

@@antiitokyo3028 American.
I'm guessing they were special forces or some sort of military task force to get away with that "appropriate" amount of force because no police officer would ever get away with that! The media would be all over it and the officer that fired the shots and the one that gave the order would not only be fired for excessive force but also arrested and convicted in a court of law for the unlawful and unnecessary murder of a civilian.

I literally theorized exactly what you said before watching it, except for the fact that I don't think he's trying to stop the hall of the machines-but instead encourage it. I think Arthur runs the machine invasion and that he is trying to guide his younger self to make sure that he will forever stay on the path towards the machines, much like Erin Yeager and the rumbling

To address the "hair color" loophole to this theory: All my siblings were born with bright blonde hair that turned brown. Might this be similar? Also, if I were on the run and wanted to change myself to the point of changing my name, wouldn't it make sense to change your appearance also? Such as hair dye, a wig, etc?
Just speculation, as you said. But I like the theory.
My hair color has also darkened over the years. Born strawberry blonde, was a platinum blonde until... 2nd grade? By which point i was a dishwater blonde. Simply light brown to a lot of folks. Now it all depends on the lighting and exactly where on my head you look. Some dark brown, some light, some still a daek blonde, and even spots where it looks ginger.
My brother had blonde hair that went brown fairly young so yeah it's not far-fetched (I'm still blonde though 😂)
That's what he said.
I used to have blonde hair and blue eyes and now I have dark brown hair and green eyes, so I believe it is definitely possible.
Same, all my siblings and I began blonde and are now all varying shades of darker. I think two of us could be considered dirty blonde, but the other two of us are definitely brunette now. My mom also had blonde hair as a child and now her hair is a pretty dark brown... well, grey, now, I guess. But all through my childhood she had very dark hair.
The fact that we've heard so much from and about The Cat makes The Monkey, who we've heard almost nothing about, even more scary
I love how this is a mini theory and this is also longer than the other two vids…
“A boy and his dog... but actually they are the same person”
Sounds awfully furry
What about the voice, David had that voice in that one ending of duck season.
DOES IT MATCH ARTHUR'S
partyman coolguy time takes a toll
Purberty
I was another such kid: bright blonde with hazel eyes until I was about in middle school, then my hair darkened until I started dying it myself to make it stop looking grey and now it stays brown when it grows out.
One of my kid brothers? He was the same way. Except he had blue eyes that darkened to brown in middle school, as well as the hair.

Big brain time

Me: but what is against all odds they have a crossover what will you do
I know this is 4 years late, but I'm revisiting some of my favorite videos on this channel and I wanted to share my own thoughts on this theory. Personally, I have a different theory for which character is which, and my only evidence for it relates to the hair colors, since the differing hair and eye colors of David and Arthur just strain my credibility of this theory.
In _Duck Season's_ "Stuck Forever" ending, the TV comes back on to show a different kid - one with brown hair and brown eyes. I know that the "Stuck Forever" ending isn't the canon ending, but it at least shows that a kid like this exists in this in-game universe. It could be that THIS kid is a young Arthur Ford, and he ended up learning about the Void from the cursed _Duck Season_ cartridge (since he probably ends up going through something similar to what David goes through).
And as for David... well, in that poster for "Hall of the Machine King", it shows a huge robot glaring down at a man - likely the protagonist of that game - and the man clearly has blonde hair. That man could very well be David, meaning that he's possibly the protagonist in "Hall of the Machine King".
It's probably not true, since I have even less evidence for it than Matpat has for his own theory here, but it still makes sense to me.

But then what about the other families attacked by the dog, or the video of the dog sneaking up on a child
@@DamnedPunk135 he’s trapped inside the game and is waiting for his young self (this is just a answer I thought of right when I saw the comment so don’t roast me too hard if it is not the correct answer)
He ought to kill all the victims because he is not sure which kid is "him"
David and Arthur are definitely the same.
You just have to look at their facial features, especially the noses. You see, contact lenses and hair dye are easy ways of hiding your identity, but structural parts like the nose, ears and jaw require surgery or expensive prosthetics, so a possible fugitive kid wouldn't want to draw attention to himself with such huge and expressive buys, if he could at all.
I believe David and Arthur are even the same character model just redesigned to look older.
The way Game theory talks about Monagon industries capturing and studying the clock cat the game console and the other clock reminds me so much of SCP foundation
When you cast this to a tv, the title reads only "A Boy and His D"
