Never Leave Your Room At Night, GO TO BED stay there Trust Me - Noctambulant 

Welcome to the I'm In Bed Right Now Club, how I'm In Bed Right Now are ya?

I love how the doll barges into every room EXCEPT the bathrooms. How considerate of it, to peek first.

Has anyone ever wondered how screwed the protagonist would be if people in video games didn't write in their diaries like regular normal people?

So no one is going to talk about how the gramma climbs that ladder everyday to sleep? And she still hunches over?

Damn, monster just peeking in the door was way spookier than if it were to walk in

The story as I understand it: Renee dies. Mother won't accept this and uses the voodoo ritual to pull Renee's soul out of the afterlife and into a body, creating Renee 2. Despite having the same soul, Renee 2 was never quite the same as Renee 1. Ending 1 reveals that Father doesn't accept Renee 2 as his daughter, while Ending 2 reveals that Mother and Grandmother both accept and love Renee 2. Ending 3 reveals that the parents often fight over the creation of Renee 2. When Renee 2 discovers Mother's study with the book that brought her back, she recognizes that the information in chapter 3 could be used to send her to the afterlife again. Afraid of this, she rips out those pages and hides them in her favorite doll. Later on, Mother and Father both die. As a consequence of the voodoo ritual, Mother's soul doesn't reach the afterlife -- instead being forced into the Becky doll. Even though Mother recognized Renee 2 as family in life, she is unable to do so while trapped in the Becky doll. The purifying charm is able to force a soul out of an object and into the afterlife. In ending 1, Renee 2 uses it on herself to send herself back to the afterlife. In ending 2, Renee 2 uses it on the Becky doll to send Mother back to the afterlife, at which point Becky 2 starts to have a normal life with Grandmother. The act of creating the purifying charm leaves highly-toxic water. In ending 3, Renee 2 puts the toxic water in Grandmother's humidifier, killing her. The charm goes unused. There were two aspects of Ending 3 which were not clear to me: what did Renee 2 do when she peeked in her parents' room, and why was the Becky doll no longer attacking her after she assassinated Grandmother?

Me: wondering around the house looking for snacks Mom: so you've chosen death

Manly: “You’re kinda scary looking good bye” Manly would totally survive in a horror movie.

It's late over here and I was NOT ready for that thumbnail.

*Jokes on you Manly Kun, I never leave bed anyway!*

What is it with horror games having kids explore their house at 3 am without lights on and with no one awake? If I woke up at 3 with no one insight as a kid I would've probably pissed my self

The doll is fucking terrifying, the way it just looks at you silently. Well done.

Fun fact : Renée means "Reborn" in French wich kinda makes sense in this context

Pretty sure she poured the corrupted water into the grandma's humidifier. Not sure what she did with the charm in that last ending... Very interesting game, beautiful art style, and a wonderful playthrough, as usual! 💜

So I'm guessing She doesn't see me as her family - Bad ending But I'm sure she loves me - Good ending She is hiding something - True ending

Bro got all endings, that’s so badass and manly just like a hero (tud dum tssss)

This is very confusing but from what I gathered: the real daughter did died sometimes before and the mother conducted a ritual to brought her back. It's just that the soul are no longer that of her daughter as per the rules; a person who have been brought back will no longer be themselves. The father and the mother then fought and killed themselves. Since the mother was dabbling in black magic and act as a medium for someone else (the daughter) her soul is considered tainted and trapped in a doll.

Hello ManlyBadassHero, thank you for playing Noctambulant. It looks like Christmas came early for me this year as well!

the game: "cough"... "cough" manlybadasshero: cough

You know what I don't get? Why doesn't Grandma lock Becky up? Ideally in that hidden passage in the living room.

I’m curious now… Being a homunculus, is Renee a different soul inhabiting that body, or is it just that passing into the afterlife has irreparably changed Renee’s soul?

renee looks like she's moonwalking forward whenever she's walking.

I definitely prefer this to Overslept, if only because the monster design is creepier and the story got me interested early on. Still got some pacing issues and I was really underwhelmed by the puzzles, particularly the chest that you just had to copy what was on the sticky note, but it's an improvement over their last game. If anything, that gives me all the more reason to be excited to see what they do next.

This game is almost like the movie “The visit” but very different too

Rather okay-ish game. It felt like more sad than horror really. Thought it was gonna be 3D cause that title screen really gives me shivers. For a short game, it was alright. The third ending reminded me of one of the endings in Ib. That game was ages ago

I can’t believe they made a horror game about manly’s life style.

Yeah, rituals are pretty strong, but not stronger than family.

this is exactly why i dont wanna go out of my bed at night

So... the father killed the mother and the daugther killed the father to convert both of them in dolls?

Poor grandma. Livin in the attic in her own home. and that ladder she has too climb up and down from. Brutal.

11:32 Manly's reaction to this is so hard he broke character 😂

So let me get this straight... Ending One: Learning the True Ending Two: Accepting the Truth Ending Three: Hiding the Truth

The thumbnail isn’t even creepy guys she probably just lives in Australia

I don't wanna leave my own mind, my room is a piece of cake

"GO TO BED stay there Trust me" no

You know what I'd be so angry if my teddy bears turned evil and tried to kill me after all the care I've given to them. Kinda ungrateful don't you think?

I feel bad for the protag, she was like a replacement/substitute for the actual daughter ((I'm not sure if this is what's actually happening, this is just what I'm picking up))

Manly KNEW what he was doing when he posted this at night.

This is what I got from the ending. Renee (The little kid) has passed away and the mother went to this weird witch craft to resurrect her. After resurrection the father did not accept the child because he knew what has happened. After he found her alone in the room looking at the ritual papers he confesses that he does not love her because that is not his daughter. He goes back to argue with the mother and then they go to the bedroom where he kills her and the father took his own life by jumping through the window. I am assuming the daughter understood quickly and resurrected the mother and father. Then after the granddaughter was picked up by the grandma and lived with her. She took all the dolls from the house and put it in a room. Which lay her father and mother. The reason why they attack her is because it is not really her in the body but another soul. That is the only assumption I can come up with cause they do not attack the grandma. That is why the last ending is a little sinister because the child is not really a child in mind.

Feeling so sorry for her. She lost both of her parents and then this..

Finally a RU-vidr that actually knows how to play games

Good ending: manly becomes smart and just sleeps

Basiclly from what I can tell, their original daughter died and the mom practiced voodoo in order to get her daughter back, but the spirit that came back wasn’t their daughter, but their daughter’s body was animated again so the mom was happy about that. But the dad was’t and hated what their daughter has become. He knows that kid isn’t his Renee and will never be Renee. He sees her as a reminder of what he lost and it’s a mockery of the original. Eventually he kills his wife, most likely out of anger, and now her mom is cursed to wander the house as a noctambulant spirit bc she practiced voodoo. She doesn’t want to attack her “daughter” but she has to bc she’s an outsider. Her spirit is not part of the family.

Oddly, I feel like the character you play as looks like a traced gacha/is a gacha. It just sort of looked that way, but it's still cute.

"A little girl must make sure to never wanted around the house at night" Seems like a pretty easy task honestly. *4 minutes later* She failed. How.

i always love watching you late at night with all the lights off. brings in the real fear factor from this and all of your videos make me happy and scared. you always make great and funny videos even tho they are horror games you still make them funny.

(Picks pessimistic option) "Am I getting the bad ending?"

I actually really like the storyline with the "happy" ending, because having grown up with undiagnosed autism I relate to this feeling of thinking of yourself as not a person, and it's kinda reassuring to me to see horror games where the "monster" is just trying to figure things out and the conclusion is something like "ya know, maybe it doesn't really matter that much if you're human or not".

Me:I want to stay in and sleep Mom:go to sleep Me: *well now I dont want to*

Depression keeps me in my bed TIGHT!

Manly's Viewers: "So, what is the ending?" Manly: " *FAMILY* " Edit: Thanks for all of the likes! Let's make this comment the highest! 😂

what a fun gameplay to watch when im thirsty in bed and cant go out to get water.

So was she kidnapped by "Grandma"? I find it pretty suspicious how she was the only person at the funeral. And how she had to introduce herself.

She looks kinda like the girl from Hitorinbo Envy.

"We will always be family." Reneen toretto!?

*see thumbnail* "Heh, kinda lame" *sees gameplay* "oh no no no no no no!"

In terms of the story, or what I gathered from it, it sounds like the book that Renee's mother used to bring her back also had a way to undo the spell that brought her back (ie the charm in the doll she uses in ending 2 to get rid of 'Becky' and she uses on herself in ending 1). The fighting between the parents was likely due to the fact she wasn't ACTUALLY their daughter anymore (as the book also mentions, those brought back are never the same as they once were). As for the noctambulant spirits, they protect family, and since granny was the only ;real' family left, thats why the two dolls (the main one and the one in the basement controlling the doll hands) attack Renee as she wanders the house. Lastly, the notes or stories state somewhere that when those who use vodoo to revive someone die, their spirits become trapped in some sort of vessel as Noctambulant spirits. The ritually couldnt have killed them since they were fighting in front of Renee in the endings, leaving only one conclusion. Renee killed them the same way as she did Granny in ending 3, she soaked one of the charms in water without using salt to neutralize it (as per the books, without salt, direct contact with the corruption was very harmful to humans) and used it to kill them in some way, but when the parents died their spirits became tied to the dolls, and the rest pretty much plays out from there.

Ooh dang I truly didnt expect them to make another game. And this one seems more polished and fleshed out then overslept at first glance

"Oh the dolls alive, that's cool." *Ten seconds later* "YOURKINDASCARY bye"

Dang bro I normally go get snacks at night but I think I’m going to bed early tonight

i wanted to go drink some water but then this appeared in my recommendations i'm scared now thanks manly

the doll: hello, we've tried to reach you about your car's extended warranty

If there's one thing I know, dolls are no-no.

Me getting water at 3AM at my grandmas house be like: *nonsense!*

This game makes it harder to sleep. Manly's calm voice makes it easier to sleep. What kind of paradox is this

This is what happens when I wonder around the house, my parents will get anger at me.

That long hair doll has SOTN vibes, especially when sitting down

Even though this is a horror game just Manly uploading a video made me calm down. I'm currently in online class about to report a project, the others are reporting before I get to report mine and when I listened to their reports I found out I did mine wrong and got the instructions wrong 😭😭

Yo manly your about to reach a milestone!! You've almost got 1m subs!! Lets gooooo!!

The artstyle is pretty! But why does Renee’s gameplay model look like a taller gacha life character?

This game has a great artstyle, but why the hell do dolls always have to come into play? And I guess all the endings are different timelines?

I'm literally getting up to use the bathroom at night as I started watching this video.

They way he just said “cough” and then gets back into character💀

well hey at least the bed is my personal home where i do almost about everything in my person home called a bed

such a interesting game! i need to see more unique games like these honestly...

Ok, what kind of kid sees a huge doll chasing them and decides to keep exploring the house?

Every Manly video always makes my day better :)

The story and premise is really cool actually, I love it. it just needs to be conveyed better. The storyTELLING is what needs to be worked on in my opinion. How it is delivered to the player. Love this much better than Overslept.

Ngl thought the thumbnail was an old man with a really rocking beard at first

"oh, the dolls alive.....thats fine." bro this man is fearless, manly indeed

I love the second time, he just says flatly. “Cough.”

Off topic, but I love this games art style. Very cool.

I love how he actually coughs at first, but then just _says_ cough later on.

To be fair, opening youtube on my phone and greeted by this thumbnail almost gave me a heart attack.

My guess on this is the girl was adopted and was going to be used in bringing the parent's dead daughter back somehow. But they never got a chance to since the car crash happened and since the girl was adopted that's why all the endings have her just "Wanting a family"

Jokes on this game, whilst it was trying to hunt me at night, I already mastered the art of several of my my toy swords and I will be showing it the way of the knights of templar

The 2nd ending actually made me cry a bit idk I guess just the fact that it reminds me of a lot of personal stuff with loosing my parents and having to live with my grandma. I thought nobody ever loved me but I soon realized that people do and that's my grandma.

Me watching this from my bed in the dark: "Guess I live here now."

Yep, that was pretty good, I liked it. Better than overslept imo

Renee really looking like a Gacha Life OC

THIS IS NOT A GOOD TIME I AM IN MY BED AT NIGHT THANKS FOR THE PARANOIA MANLY

love the detail of renee covering her nose/holding her breath whenever becky passes by ngl, it reminds me of those southeast asian superstitions where holding you breath will make you undetectable to spirits

16:51 ok, *that's was so almost bro. You just make us dying tf*

i've always wondered how this man finds so much cool horror games in the shortest amount of time, he literally uploads DAILY. i am amazed.

I feel bad for the grandmother in the last ending. She knew that Renee is not her real granddaughter, but she wanted to protect her from the curse and loved her anyway, but Renee just killed her because she lied. It's honestly sad.

I really like how in the bad ending it’s referred to as “the playroom” and in the others “my playroom”. This game was also really sad

I found the last ending kind of interesting. It sounded like the parents were probably dead when she found them but she used the information she found to transmigrate them into dolls, but the mother wouldn't cooperate because she was protecting the grandmother, knowing that the daughter was capable of hurting her. So she killed the grandmother to solidify their "family unit". I always find this kind of story interesting, thinking about the morality of sentient created entities so I found this really enjoyable to watch.

i almost shat my pants with the thumbnail

1:59 i like how he didn’t even bother to actually cough, just *c ø u g h*

Stay with us for the next four years, I or WE really need that purgatory x gameplay
