Death Palette - Paint This Girl Or She'll Kill Feed Stab You In That Order / ALL 48 ENDINGS SECRETS

The fact, the girl died because she wanted to save the sketch made me incredibly sad...

"Wake up babe, it's time for your daily scheduled painting session" "Yes honey"

Here's my best explanation for the ending. The Girl did not let any of the artists paint here correctly because she knew she would be cast aside, forgotten after it was done. But what the painter said, how he wanted to keep painting here, in many backdrops, in many different outfits, she knew she would have a future after the old man was done with her. So she pushed the artist out, not in anger, but to surprise him, finally give him good lighting, so that the old man would be done with her, and she could be free again. She went to grab the scetch because it was her hope at freedom, at Peace. Sadly, no one, except the painting, her mirror image, would know the truth of her fate. The artist believed it a suicide, the servants a curse, and the old man so deranged that he didn't care.

"whatever you do, don't paint her" manly: *unlocks the best ending by painting her*

The flower garden ending struck me as one of the happier if I understood it correctly. Most are a "I'll show you for messing with me!" But that one is "It's alright, you tried you're best. We're both stuck here, but at least it's beautiful."

Fun fact: The final painting’s name is a reference to La Danse Macabre, which is art that shows skeletons of people from all walks of life dancing with each other. It’s supposed to be a reminder that no matter who you are, everyone dies.

The reason why her head tilts like that everytime she kills you is due to the fact that she broke her neck after falling out the window. [i think]

Not a lot of people noticed but the reason why only one of her eyes is colored because when he was forced to paint that gruesome sight of her only one of her eyes was open her left eye with that single red eye

I find it weirdly fitting that the dev went through such a development hell, considering the story it tells

I noticed a pattern. No matter what game. What's going on. What He is saying. He will stop everything the moment he sees a cat and go. "Cat." Like it's a statement to silence all others. And I love it. XD

Man, throughout the whole game I was annoyed at the girl thinking what a “brat” she is, but that ending just broke me, I did not expect it to be so heartwarming and hearbreaking at the same time

2:08:45 It's best to avoid painting in direct sunlight, especially during the hot summer months. The heat from the sun's rays cause the paint to dry to quickly, which can cause a number of problems - brush marks, lap marks, inadequate adhesion. Move around the house to avoid the sun as much as possible

The French titles of each painting are interesting because they are not just direct translations of the English titles. For example the “Girl Holding a XXX” says “ Girl with a birdcage” with no censorship in french. Also the painting titled “Searching 1” says “ do not discover” in French, “Searching 2” says “do not open,” and “girl holding an umbrella” says “open memory.” “The forgotten garden” says “I want to stop time.” “Girl with the Blue Flower?” says “the mirror reflects the truth.”

The end of the 6th day was heartbreaking. She was broken, twisted, barely alive. She had just started to become her own person, just found her first friend, and he ripped it all away. Tore the earring off of her, and demanded the artist paint. And paint. And paint. Splashing color, probably crying and afraid both from her death and the man's rage. And in the end... Her beauty was lost forever. At least we gave her a fitting end. The painting was ancient, weathered, and faded. I wonder if she was able to enjoy herself in that dark gallery. If we gave her any paintings of snacks and cats and birds, if we painted a garden and flowers for her, if we painted her a new home. Or if we forgot her, and she simply languished... In the end, she disintegrated in that beautiful sunset. The real horror is the tragedy that befell her.

damn those end credits… she opened the windows and let the setting sun light the room so the painter could finish his painting, and so the old man would throw her away after her portrait was done. so she could live a life with the painter, for he wished to continue painting her. it ended so abruptly, that wish. its unfortunate. it really is. the saddest thing is nobody had understood her. nobody understood why she died. she did not commit suicide, and neither was it a curse. she died reaching out to that sketch, that sketch that gave her hope. in the end, the girl was never understood. not even by her incomplete painting. it had tried to act like her, but the “her” it knew was in itself an act. and now, all that remains of her existence is the many portraits of her, the portraits of the Girl with the Blue Flower.

I’ve watched other people play this game and one detail I’ve noticed is that they chose different earrings. Apparently, you can choose any earring and it’ll be correct (as in, she doesn’t kill us). Sometimes she says “I’ll be lenient, you choose” but there’ll still be a correct color, and if we get it wrong, we die. But for the earring, it is truly up to us. And she says “I’ll remember it.” In that one moment, we are actually in the story, as in our decision changed the past. The choice was ours to make, as the painter of the story. Another possible theory is that the first painter didn’t choose the same one as us and our decision did not affect his decision or the actual story. Instead, the painting asks us the same question as the one the model asked the original painter. The story is no longer about the model and the painter, but about the painting and us.

The fact that almost every characters in the game have their own background stories which made this game a lot more alive. The developer must have gone a lot of hell just to make such a game.

My heart sank when she jumped out the window trying to grab at that last painting She did it with no hesitation, as if that was all she had to live for. And it really was. It was the only individuality she ever experienced... This was the one time I didn't want to see someone get punished for indulging in their own beauty

They could've had a life together. ❤️ The girl was going to be abandoned by her adoptive father after her perfect portrait was completed. Knowing this, she purposefully sabotaged all of the artists that attempted to capture her, all so she could stay at her adopted home. However, the last artist found a genuine attraction to the girl and wished to have her model for him for more paintings. If it weren't for that one "accident ", the last painter could have given the girl a new home and a new family. I wouldn't mind an alternate ending that gives us this conclusion.

"The victim was discovered in the studio with the handle of an umbrella from their head." Totally the best ending

This is a rare occasion of a horror game that doesn't actually use cheap jumpscares to give players heart attacks

I like the formula to the deaths. “Are you trying to give me cognitive behavioural therapy?” “I’ll give you CBT instead!”

I just finished Death Palette. This is by far, the best game I have ever played. No unnecessary fanservice, no cheap jumpscares, just pure psychological emotions rushing in you. It manipulates your feelings perfectly in every way. You go from hating the girl in the painting, thinking she's a prick, to emphasizing with her, and even emotionally connecting with her. I'm not someone who plays games often, and I usually just finish a game and move on, or usually, most games I play would be those long-time grinding ones. This is by far, the only game that I wish I could forget and play a second time.

At the end, when she wanted to save the painters' drawings and she fell, I just couldn't restrain myself from being very sad. I must say i cried when he said "NO!", this story was beautiful. There are so many games that are such touching and beautiful, thank you for playing and showing them man.

life is good when you have 2 hours, 30 minutes and 44 seconds of manly’s content

It must’ve be very painful for him to paint that portrait, just as he said he wanted to continue painting her after this job, only to realize his first and last painting of her would be so gruesome.

Personally I think the story was amazingly delivered. At first it's just horror, then it turns into an interesting backstory that slowly turns sad and it's so carefully told that you really get to spend some time with each character to feel heartbroken at the end. Don't know why but stories like these hit different for me and I loved this one a lot.

I was so sure that the old man was going to catch her in the room with the curtains open, realize she was getting older, and then shove her out the window so she'd stay forever young like his sister.

“Manly! It’s 4:00 A.M, time to paint me!” “Yes, honey.”

This game is an amazing piece of art. The most tragic character deaths are ones where they don’t get what they get so close to what they want and it suddenly goes wrong.

She says it at the start, you are painting with your soul, if you keep putting stuff out of her reach, she doesn't kill you, you simply expire from wasting your soul itself as paint. That's why you have 3 attempts, it's the amount of times you can paint before you die. This also includes if you have to paint multiple objects, you only have enough paint (soul) for 3 attempts, so they get used up per item you paint.

After watching this several times, I have a headcanon that the main character is either A) A distant relative of the original painter B) A reincarnation of the original painter

Aww that ending is so heartbreaking 3: she died trying to save the artists sketch, never to live her life, never to be able to realise her life beyond a figment of a fleeting dream of an old man's regret, never to be truly understood, never to be remembered as anything beyond the mysterious girl who inexplicably appeared in many paintings at a time, with the only other remaining fragment being what the spirit of a canvas seen, her final moment a 7 day memory trapped within her last painting

This was excellent, from start to finish. The beginning got me interested with all the comedic deaths that are pretty creative and the girl in the painting being the right level of sassy about it, and eventually the true story begins to reveal itself for the tragedy that it is. Given all that happened, I think this bittersweet end is the best we could hope for. Also, I absolutely believe the person you play as is the original painter reincarnated; both the painter and the girl died, but they have been reunited now. Add on the funny gallery at the end, I am very happy with this.

Manly: "I wanna stay for the credits, there's some good stuff here..." Me: **Proceeds to bawl like a baby as the piano comes in and the tragedy unfolds.**

The others were driven insane because they saw it as "the girl with the blue flower" Yeah, there were very view names they could call it, but the girl died because of the symbolism of that flower. She and her painting wanted nothing to do with that flower. That girl saw herself for the first time without the context of being SOMEONE ELSE'S REPLACEMENT or STAND.

This was actually really well written and cohesive. Usually these types of stories fudge a lot of detail and use magical reasons to explain why things don't make sense. This made perfect sense. I'm impressed!

I literally just beat death palette about a week ago. Really good game. Although, it brought out rage I never knew I had

I love how straightforward and enjoyable Manly’s content is. He doesn’t draw out games in *numerous* episodes exploring every nook and cranny or intentionally draw out gameplay to get more views. His videos are actually fun to watch, he is fun to listen to and he never bores us.

I remember crying at the end. Like damn. I grew so attached to her overtime and the fact that she lets us put an earring on her near the end too 😭

Sad part is... There's chances that she COULD had survived the fall if she got treatments from a doctor Sure, she would have permanent internal damages, lost an eye and stuff but atleast she wouldn't had slowly and painfully died because of the old "brother/father" obsession to immortalize his "sister"...

Manly: *sees something blank/empty* Also Manly: Ah yes, something that my soul relates to

I love that in the credits, we see the story in the canvas POV. its so great

I cried when I experienced how she passed. I don't know what else there is to say. I hope she finds solace - the girl with the blue flower.

Look I rarely tear up while watching games or playing, but those credits and the part when the papers started flying around and she tried to get them and then Manly going softly 'Oh no' really but really got me choking. Like I knew it was going to happen and the girl did tried to kill the protag in 1000 creative ways, but man it hurt. It really hurt.

man, the backstory reveal really got to me. they're rare, but stories like it really mess with me for some reason. very pretty game, and the scary story at the end was too real man. i'm probably gonna have to try and forget about it for what sanity i've got left tho.

I like to think they were actually in love, but it was in that sort of Victorian and very innocent type of love, where instead of "will you marry me" its "I wish to spend the rest of my days capturing your beauty in my art." And her, instead of accepting, being flustered and tsundere about it all and kicking them out, but then imagining that life, dressing up... I like to think her body moved on her own because that was the sketch of her loved one, and in a very sad way, its the same as how the sister died....trying to recover something precious that belonged to someone very important to them T_T

The story is so depressing that it's almost painful. I'm generally pretty stone-hearted when it comes to fiction, but this one actually got to me.

manly this entire game "you killed me but i appreciate the artistry"

MANLY MANLY there's *more* . Go to the exhibits menu and scroll to the bottom and you'll find an option named "secrets" with a skull icon. After you beat the game you can click that and the girl will talk to you and tell you to find every possible death(for the player). After you find all the deaths, she will reveal some secret information about the game. I haven't found all the deaths yet though so I don't really know what the "secrets" are

I liked that the story actually managed to play out quite nicely. It's always a worry that the final chapter will screw up the story, but the creators didn't drop the ball. I kinda like that she realizes what she is. It makes her, the painting, another victim really. Like Manly said, a cursed copy of a copy.

I think this is at the core of the kind of horror that really sticks with you. Like Frankenstein, the real terror is that a sweet love story became a tragedy because of cruelty and neglect. The real monsters are nearly always people and the things they can do to each other without empathy.

This was so sad. When the girl refused to cage the cat I knew she really didn't mean to be some evil bitch painting. For me, I thought the reason she was being so bratty to the painters was to keep them away from being sort of imprisoned with her in that room and pushed away that gloomy painter because she thought she didn't deserve to be painted in those landscape scenes or she knew she didn't have that sort of future. I feel so sad for her and the artist :(

The girl: freezes Manly to death 💀 Manly: I C E I C E B A B Y

"Lord forgive me for neglecting my art classes" Now feel like to pay attention and attend art classes......

I remember finding death palette a while back, and thought it looked fun, so I downloaded it, and man was I right on that. It was a true gem I found on mobile, and I spent a while getting all the endings, along with true and final ending. It even made me cry a little, I have to say. Overall, I’m glad that a lot of people did watch this video, and get to experience this wonderful gem of games. Hopefully more will find it.

28:44 Interestingly, the French text here actually gives away the solution; in English, it doesn’t say what she has, but the French says “girl with a bird cage”

20:05 "Oh... I get it, you're a pun ghost!" I feel like Manly has finally found his one true murder waifu

As someone who adore lores in games, this is so well written. I'm absolutely in love with the story. The tragic end almost made me sob.

Coming back to watch this years later because I vividly remember seeing the thumbnail for this video, finding out it was a mobile game, and immediately deciding it looked so interesting that I needed to play it myself before watching you play it. That playthrough was incredibly fun, and watching you play it after was even better. This game still feels like an underrated gem to me.

No.0 Undetermined & No.48 (the actual ending) aren't on it, so they've been omitted out. No.0 Undetermined can be obtained through any other means than the ones used in each timestamp; since Manly obtained it more than once in the video, it's just easier not to list each instance of it.

The moment the part with making her a pet came up as well as her reactions to the animals came up I knew there was going to be some sort of twist. Nothing that reacts that way to cute animals can be completely evil.

I'm happy to see a RU-vidr play this game, I remember playing it awhile back and falling in love with it. The art, the story, the deaths, and especially the music. I want to see more people appreciate this small gem of a game.

The vibrate on that phone has the be the most violent vibrate I’ve ever heard on one

I played this game a lot of time ago when it was still only in japanese. When some of my "non-japanese" friends got interested on it, they had to play while being close to me so i could translate it to them. Now i just realised that it got translations, i finally can tell everyone about it

this game kinda reminded me of ALTER EGO. Enjoyed this and while i can imagine trying to find the solutions at times is annoying, it was a neat game over all

"you look like remilia from touhou without the hat" and now I cant unsee it. i cant replay this game a 3rd time without thinking "hey mister"

When I first saw this game I was very sceptical of it but honestly it's a masterpiece, I didn't expect to cry by the end

I swear, Manly's editing is so good that sometimes I don't even notice the transitions, it's so smooth. Thanks Manly.

I cannot tell you how happy i got when i saw this, i finished the game a week ago and got absolutely obsessed. There was so much effort put into this game and the story is excellent, and im definitely looking foward to how much attention this'll get onto the game!

It's not until the end that you truly understand why the game is called what it is.

When the credits hit you harder than an isekai truck.

This was an interesting game. I liked the personality of the portrait. Kinda cute. The deaths were creative. Perhaps the curse of the sister seeped into the painting, after all, it was "finished" in a horrible manner. More so the model than the painting. Poor girl. She really wanted to be her own self rather than a replacement for someone else. The old man was creepy and insane, i wonder if everyone was just in so much of a shock that they just went with it. Glad that in the end the painting was technically completed with girls story coming to light. Dont think anyone would want to stay a memory of such a gruesome event. Maybe not a real good ending since people were killed or entrapped by an ominous painting. To anyone itd look like faded colors splashed onto the canvas much like what we see in the ending or maybe it got even more decrepit after the events of the game. But anyone getting afflicted by the curse would start to see more detail and eventually attempt to paint the portrait. But at least our silent protag feels inspired, at least thats what i think. Loved seeing the concept art from the dev. I can feel the touhou vibes too lol. That shell ear ring was really the most important. Think in the end this game really did embody the portaits whose story it tried to tell. Wanting to be complete and finally done so for everyone to enjoy.

At 1:46:48, the French is a hint to the puzzle, and translates to “the mirror reflects the truth”. At the beginning, the French is a direct translation of the English title for each puzzle, but after new game+, it starts to deviate into other phrases.

All *48 endings?* I can’t imagine how long that must have taken.

During "the big reveal", i felt less like the painter made a proper portrait and then covered it with paint. More like the painter, while frantic and in some state of dread and panic, just threw colors hastily onto the canvas while trying to portray what the man hiring him wanted. People might only be able to see "the girl", though the mess of paint and colors, if she allows them to, or how to say. Since apparently not anyone could see her beyond (or within) the paint. The "painted in the moment of death" of this game reminded me a lot of "Le Portrait de Petit Cossette", an anime where a man becomes possessed with a young girl he sees the reflection of in an antique glass, and it turns out she was murdered while the surrounding household items (now antiques) watched and cursed the murderer. -The man, seeing the girl in the glass' reflection in modern times, is a reincarnation of the murderer, and the antiques extract revenge on his soul. -Feels like this game had some overlap with that, among other inspirations shown through the various types of death.

when I played this at the beginning I thought the girl was so annoying and evil but as time goes by, I got attached to the girl and almost cried bcs of the ending. edit: nvm I'm crying right now

This is the day. The best day of my life. The day that Manly looks at an apple and simply says "Apple". This was all I ever needed. Thank you.

The fact that this game both made me a little nervous because I get really paranoid and made me cry because of the ending shows just how amazing this game is (this is just my opinion)

If he's refencing Touhou, I'd say the girl reminds me more of Satori more than Remilia. Especially with the lost sister dynamic.

“I’ll make sure you never open your mouth again!” Me, jokingly: “ the victim was discovered with their mouth sewn shut” “I’m rather good at sewing!” Me: :O

Played this before, it's such a good game, highly recommend.

That's tragic. She died when she finally saw a happy future.

The ending sequence really did show that the artist died while dedicated to the sketches. And the painting threw em out the window

This game was beautiful. I actually ended up being sad at the end of this amazing story. I will be looking out for this developer and what they make in the future.

So I like to summarize story's for fun so if anyone is confused at all by the story allow me to summarize. SPOILERS if its not obvious So in basic terms, a struggling painter was invited to a rich old man's house to paint a portrait of a girl. this had been done many times before with other painters who all left in disgust after finishing the painting, as a result, the old man gets a bad reputation among artists. The artist meets the girl and is told to not upset her, he finds her utterly impossible to work with, making him do anything else besides painting her and dragging out the process and also keeping the room dark and impossible to paint her properly. He also finds a painting of a boy and a horse by a bridge with another figure scratched or blotted out, in a huff, the old man gives him the painting and we later learn that the old man's sister who died young is the reason he adopted this girl and forces her to dress like his long-dead sister to be a proxy for her and even has her sing him to sleep. The painter after seeing the girl looking at the sunset and not done up like the sister he admires her unique beauty though he's unable to paint her because he gawked at her too much. later that night while unable to sleep he sees her singing to the old man in his room and unable to get that weird image out of his head he sketches it. The next day he gives her the sketches to look over and confesses that after the job he wants to continue painting her against all sorts of landscapes. (It's not really mentioned to be a love confession but it kinda sounds like one to me.) She feigns anger because of how dreary his landscapes look but secretly she loved the idea and after chasing him from the room she gathers the sketches on a table and takes out a secret box of earrings and puts one on. (likely inspired by the artist mentioning the seaside.) A gust of wind from a window she opened blows the sketches around and one floats out the window and as she tries to catch it, she falls out the window and is discovered by the maids and artist. on death's door and brought back to her room to die in peace, the old man enters the room and instead of sadness he seems rather calm and after a moment of set up by the open window, he grabs the girl and brings her to the artist demanding he paint her as she is. It's explained here that the Old man's sister was trying to catch her escaped bird when she also fell to her death and the old man found her, bloody, broken and pale, he was stricken by the sight and wanted to see it again which is why despite each painting being of the girl dressed as his sister it never pleased him until he see's the girl battered and broken (real dark stuff) Here is the dark shit, while the girl is dying and broken, the old man forces him to paint a portrait of her broken body bathed in red light, effectively being a twisted version of the portrait he wanted to paint of her in the sunset earlier. It's here the artist blacks out and only remembers waking back up in his studio with the painting splashed with so many colors that it ran black and muddled. (In truth I'm guessing he was so traumatized that after painting the portrait he took it home and disfigured it himself since he himself only remembers her single bloody crimson eye, which is why her eye is red in the game since its the memories of the painter, her original eye color is lost.) The reason the painting is cursed is that the girl was robbed of a peaceful death and the earring by the old man (basically denying the girl her own individuality) and then covered up to be hidden by the painter so it was basically cursed by the girl out of hatred and rage Now sometime later, I think the old man died and his belongings sold off with the creepy paintings of the girl becoming a collector's item amongst artist circles, known only as the Girl with the Blue Flower collection. up until the start of the game, we learn several people go missing and the painting like a cursed videotape gets passed along to curse more people, we also learn the painter died in the basement, I think suicide personally since the other people simply go missing and don't end up dead like him. Finally, it ends up with the protag, a gloomy struggling artist in a studio apartment. The events of the game basically is an amalgam of the artist's memories, with everything outside the painting being what he remembers and inside the painting basically replays the last 6 days of the time the artist and the girl spent together. We think the painting is the girl's spirit but that's not quite true, painting the earring again reminds the painting that the girl was not the sister, and the girl and the painting are both their own individuals. the painting had cursed so many because she was sure she was incomplete (because she was splashed in layers of color to hide the former painting) Instead she remembers the truth now, that she was always complete, and deciding to rest she let's both the protag and the Buyer (the former owner) out of the curse. In the real world, the protag snaps out of a trance of some kind and with his memories intact is shown a ruined faded version of the painting instead of the painting of the girl. The Buyer, remembering nothing, curses his luck and leaves but the protag shines the sunset on the painting, which reveals the true painting, which is the exact opposite of what the painting always made him do. (Symbolism) Thus the game ends on a bittersweet but positive end wow this was a lot longer of a summary than I meant it but god I loved this game's story. packed with little details that only make sense later and fun deaths. Sorry for the long comment but I felt like doing this.

I Watched This about 2 years ago and i gotta say it stills bring a tear to my eye. Since the first time since i watch this i never feel that deep with a story before and it hit me, how good it was...

I'm glad that this is one of his most popular videos. This game is a gem among gems.

This OST goes way better than expected. Reminds me of Umineko with how the soundtrack works great despite seeming a bit too hype out of context.

The touhou-esce artstyle really makes this game more endearing tbh

I think I know why I like this game so much. It combines the creative brutality of SAW with the peaceful and simple hobby of painting. A fun contradiction if you will. It's actually pretty fun guessing what twisted puzzle the girl has in store for our protagonist, as well as what she'll do to him next if he messes up.

1:14:07 Holy Jesus, this Is insanely clever! I mean its a game about painting things so abstraction should be present but after the First half of the video I stoppes expecting anything too "off the rails" and got caught by surprise with this! My aplause to the dev!

well this was heart breaking!! I wondered halfway through if the painting was haunted by the master of the house or the painter rather than the girl like we were lead to believe....... I thought that might be the case, but I feel like it turned out that the painting wasn’t haunted by any of them. instead, it was haunted by the spirit of all the feelings they had left unresolved. the rage of the girl for not being able to escape, the hopelessness of the painter, the despair of the master.... the memories left to rot and twist into this disgusting amalgamation of something that doesn’t truly represent any of them, but instead the ugly and tragic situation that was born from them. the regret and unresolved problem. I loved how it twisted and turned beyond what you expected. the detail of the painter remembering their red eye staring at them, and the eye being red from the beginning.... and how the master developed from initially a seemingly sympathetic and tragic character, but turned out not to be enamoured with her sister at all, but instead the gruesome death that befell her. I have to wonder, did she really fall, or was she pushed..? the girl’s fate makes me so fucking sad...... I think she was overwhelmed by the artists admission that someone could want her for who she was, not the dead sister she was copying, and she was shocked to see them drawing her as an individual..... i feel she was getting dressed up to meet the artist and leave with him, but the sketches that were so dear to her lead her to the window instead........ the painter and the girl could have had a happy life together, the painter having his art and model to paint to his hearts content, while the girl finally gets a family that love her for her and not what she could be. In the end, even while the girl could never escape, the painting did. They got to see the real world, and feel the sun on their face, and be loved. loved not for the spirit of the girl, or master, or even the painter. Instead, she is only herself. not a copy of the girl as she was a copy of the sister. but just herself. for what seemed like such a simple premise and game, I’m genuinely shocked how much it made me feel.... it was incredibly effective at what it did even if it wasn’t very complex. I wonder if the possessiveness the owners of the painting feel is a hold over of the masters warped feelings for the girl, or maybe the girl’s desire to be loved? or the painters regret and love for the girl? incredible playthrough. as always, thank you manly for showing us all the game had to offer and letting it speak its piece before talking over it. you always show the best games and I look forward to every video. you’ve introduced me to some of my favourite games.

Damn, this was a good sad game. The creator really knew how to balance absolutely graphic horror that borders too shocking and suspension-breaking with their simpler and stylized style making it more "palatable" (pun fully intended.) Some of it seems a bit cheaper than other parts, I.E. the phone stuff in my opinion, but all in all this was a phenomenal game that I would dare compare to Ib in a lot of ways. The creator of this still has some room for development, but this was honestly one of the best games I've seen in a hot minute. Thanks for playing it through to completion Manly, I don't usually have the time nor energy to search up games "all endings" on youtube (especially when you have to skip between each scene), but when I'm just playing one of your vids in the background it becomes a lot easier to keep an eye and see it play out.

"She kinda looks like Remilia from Touhou, but without the wings" A man of culture I see

I just came back to this video because i realized something. The girl wasn't actually "dead" immediately when she fell out the window. Her father stole her "last moments" trying to get her in a painting. The painter described her as "still breathing, watching him with a reddened eye". So she loved the painters art so much, because she saw it as a chance for freedom, then was dying because they had tried to catch a sketch, and then were brought back up, and forced into a likely immensely painful pose, seeing that their father never cared about them, and the one person who she'd grown compassionate towards being forced to not draw her the way he had invisioned, but instead using the frame of her dying body as a still life that couldnt refuse to be painted.

protag: gets frozen in ice for painting the wrong thing manly: :o ice, ice, baby :/

Alternate ending: She didn't open the window and only opened the curtains, therefore preventing the pictures from flying out the window and ultimately saving her from death :D
