Your Neighbor Is Fully Normal don't open the Meat fridge - My Neighbor Enide ALL ENDINGS 

Welcome to the My Neighbor Manly Club how My Neighbor Manly are ya?

Fun facts! Red crabs are known to change gender from male to female, this process is called protandry. It's actually not super rare in sea creatures like fish and crabs. Other examples would be Clownfish, Cleaner Wrasse, Hermit crabs, and Mussels. White cats with blue eyes are most likely to be deaf. Along with cats with different colored eyes. Though they dont seem to match this in the game. Enide was most likely a Predatory cone snail, known to feed on fish and crustaceans, also highly venomous. At least her color scheme matches lol

Imagine if the catgirl’s big sis and father fighting sounded like actual cats fighting, like constant hissing at each other.

Naming your crab kid 'Pincer' is like naming a human child 'hand' lol

The idea that Enide could’ve possibly known that Allie was related to Tabby and acted so kind to her all this time is really disturbing..

"You've got a really big heart Allie, I'm almost jealous." That phrasing told me EVERYTHING i needed to know about her.

"What species are you... candy corn?" got me dead lmaooo

SO BALLSY TO DATE THE GIRL WHOSE DAD’S HEAD YOU SAW IN THE NEIGHBOR’S FRIDGE AND NEVER TOLD ANYONE ABOUT

Damn. Forgot about Tabby until the ending. The fact that she left all those gifts behind means she never even held them with any sentimentality, despite gushing about how she likes to keep her gifts like a kid.

I think there's still a subtle horror or at least sad element to the normal ending where they get together. Imagine Clawdi mourning her dad and Allie's just there knowing to herself that she couldve helped get justice but said nothing. That's forever looming over them.

Cool detail about Enide's design, her skirt design is meant to resemble the shell of not just any snail, but a cone snail specifically. Cone snails possess venom hypothesized to be capable of killing several hundred people with one dose. Their beautiful patterning is tragically deceiving to those unfortunate enough to pick one up and get jabbed with their harpoon. Surely she couldn't be evil... surely.. clever design choice overall, though! (Also definitely look up cone snails, they're very beautiful.. when observed from a distance!) (also also, Enide's skirt appears to be modeled after the shell of Conus textile, or the textile cone snail. Her textile is meant to look like a "textile." lol)

I think it is pretty weird Enide would leave the chest in her basement, given how thorough she is with cleaning up the results of her cravings on one hand and how she claims the belongings of her past lovers mean much to her on the other side. So I like to think she probably left it intentionally for Allie to find, probably knowing that Tabby was her sister, as kind of a TWISTED reward for keeping her promise.

Dev here!! Happy birthday to me, this is one of the nicest presents a girl could ask for on her birthday!! Normally I try to finish a video before commenting (I'm typing as I watch this!) but I wanted to thank you so much for playing! It's always such a joy and your support is invaluable to the indie dev community, and it's always quite the honor when you play one of my games! Thank you so much for always supporting devs like myself, we appreciate it more than you could ever know!❤️

A friendly reminder that many species of snail are predators. Also good GOG that ending!

Clawdi’s lil crab claw pigtails are actually so cute and such a fun lil detail. It’s so amazing how games like this can create such endearing characters no matter the actual size of the cast or the length of the game.

I'm picturing this whole story playing out with the real animals. Small crab and kitten fight while a snail chews the head off an adult crab. Kitten then arches back at snail as it approaches menacingly.

Dude why is nobody talking about how absolutely gut renching that ending is? I was thinking around 3/4 mark that she killed tabby and then it was revealed and the art of allie when she reads the note is so horrific and emotion filled

Allie: Do you need help? Pincer: Yeah spit it out. Allie: *spills entire encyclopedia*

ok, that plot twist REALLY got me, i almost forgot tabby were even relevant to the story

All this indie games are just "someone eats people" at this point, they are somehow still entertaining for their different art styles and storytelling, even for how over used the trope is

The only thing I think was weird was Allie is scared stiff and her dad’s just like haha I cooked well! Enide I guess just gathered that Allie knew, but dang, dad, at least throw a “you alright there, sport?” So Allie could have a beat and make an excuse.

I think one day Manly is going to play a game that's genuinely just a cute slice-of-life rpg or visual novel but frame it as one of these where there's some inevitable sinister twist coming up.

Why all the f-ed up rpg maker games got some 10 year old going through the most traumatic events

I like the spin on the typical "bully with a crush" trope. Pincer and Allie *do* end up together, but not in the usual way. I also like that Manly doesn't draw attention to it. Clawdi is just Clawdi, plain and simple.

Is it me or is the way Enide postures her hand reminiscent of the harpoon that cone snails have? With her fingernail/claw being the actual needle.

As a crab, your apology is accepted

This game went from a 7/10 to a 9/10 with that ending It had a way sadder tone at the end than I expected there

Your mother is a CATGIRL???!?????

She is a Cone Snail , her skirt resembles the patterns of one the species.

This game is SO CUTE. The artstyle and simple, but sincere characters make it very easy to ignore the heavy smell of iron coming from the accursed meat fridge.

26:13 wet sink = definitely evil. Love the thought process haha

crab racism

I like the subtle angsty Pincer to friendly Clawdi transition toward the end. But that last love letter right at the end was like an uppercut to the gut from the Hulk, even if I was halfway expecting it :(

Moral of the story? SPOILERS Cat kids, don't fight with your cat dads, lest you run away and get turned into catfood by a predatory snail woman.

I lowkey wish there was just a little bit more to this story. It feels like there's no closure, especially with the true end. I can think of a handful of reasons like that it was meant to simulate how in life we don't always see how things end, or the author might've left it open ending for a chapter 2 but still. I wanted to see the post incident tension and know the dad's reaction to the true end! Seeing that her and Clawdi get together was super cute tho.

1. the opening is beyond heart breaking 2. character who needs a hearing aid to hear in a horror game = smart game mechanic 3. damn the characters are sooooo cute

So allie started dating clawdi even though she knew what happened to the father and kept that secret... I feel the guilt would have been too much

Didn't this game come out _today?_ Manly, are you secretly the Flash?

Enide's Sink: "It's wet - like it was recently used" Manly: "Okay she's definitely evil" 26:14

I WAS SO REASONLESSLY HAPPY WHEN I SAW CLAWDI-

damn, that secret ending really got me, especially with that final piece of character art. And it was over so quickly too it I had to rewind a bit to confirm what I just saw.

I think Enide is a Cone snail, specifically the Textile cone snail. The pattern on her skirt is near Identical to the pattern on a Textile cone snails shell.

Waaaait, Allie calls Clawdi "crabcakes"? After the Enide reveal? She's clearly inherited her father's nicknaming skills, but _oof._

"for all the crabs watching" lol😂

Enide is definitely a cone snail. She has her little shell on her waist band and the patterns, stripes and colors match the general profile. It's very cylindrical where as assassin snails are more spirally and boring, usually just shades of brown and black. Cone snails also eat whatever they can too, not just other snails. Don't trust cone snails.

Another great game from this developer. We may have an easy time predicting what's going to happen after so many wicked neighbors, but it's done well with likable characters. The true ending is appropriately tragic too.

Hah. Her name is Allie. Because Alley Cat.

_Visit our not-suspicious neighbor_ My only reaction to that, knowing you, is:

"What a waste of space..." just like my soul I felt that

Me: Enide reminds me of an owl. Manly: "What species are you? Candy Corn?" Me: 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Man, i love games like this. It may have lasted for less than an hour, yet it still manages to leave you with that feeling. I dont need to explain what “that feeling” is. Everyone knows it.

26:14 ok saying the sink is wet and calling Enide evil for it made me laugh way more than I think anyone else would have lmao (my mom HATES her kitchen sink being used unless it is for cooking, and if it DOES get used, wants it to be wiped up dry so it doesn't leave water stains) ... yet almost everyone that comes to the house uses the sink for convenience and doesn't wipe it up after. (so hearing the sink being wet being an evil thing makes me laugh, calling everyone that uses the kitchen sink and not cleaning it up evil... haha)

Weird that a big deal was made about her hearing aid at the start and then nothing ever happened with it. Like, maybe the battery goes dead while she is evading Enide. Or Enide takes it from her. Just...something?

Such a cute cat girl. I sure hope nothing bad happens to her and her -canabalistic- definitely safe neighbor.

I wish that some horror game would include a "like my soul" joke.

"It's not really cannibalism, it's murder, with eating in the end" - Manlybadasshero 2024

In Michigan we have a small chain of restaurants (like, 4 total currently) in the Muskegeon area called G&L Chili Dogs. They do have a drive-through. so yes, take-out hotdog places do exist. and G&L is good, too.

I'm placing my bets now. It's a Mad Father scenario. The "gifts" are the previous victims, preserved as her precious collectables. Damn, not quite. Just the classic cannable story.

43:25 “Congratulations, you played yourself.” Should have listen to your father kid but consider this your final mistake. Too bad you won’t learn from it.

the fact no matter what you do she pretty much gets away with it and the true ending just makes it worse lol

the art for this game is fantastic

So Enide just leaves all that evidence behind? Lmao

was completely caught off guard by Clawdi after the time skip.... lol

Honestly the dad was weirdly sweet 😭 his eyes freaked me out tho

So glad to see you playing more ArcadeKitten games! Something about them is just so appealing

Thank you Manly for being such a swell one ❤

A snail? With legs and no slime, and no tentacles? Eh?

after some googling, i'm pretty confident in saying that Enide is a textile cone snail! they have that neat scaled pattern and like all cone snails they have a barb that pokes out of the end of their shell that resembles her purse. they're one of the more venomous cone snails, apparently.

Wait, did Allie never tell Clawdi what happened to her dad? Her childhood friend and GIRLFRIEND, and she never revealed that she knew who murdered her dad, for three years? Damn. The game doesn't draw much attention to it, but that's incredibly fucked up. Like I know Ally was afraid for her life, but to start dating someone while lying about something so massive to them... I don't know how you'd be able to look Clawdi in the eye after that, much less maintain relationship with her. I think their relationship is likely doomed either ending. The way I see it: they either breakup due to the strain on Allie from having to keep that secret, or due to the inevitable fallout from the secret finally coming out, perhaps in the aftermath of the true ending.

It's really neat to see a horror game of this style where the protag genuinely DOES get away completely safe after promising not to tell when caught, and seeing what comes after that. I feel like the vast majority would still have the protag tracked down, just make it a short unsatisfying ending in a sea of ones involving fighting back or losing, or not think to include it at all.

The convo with the Dad at the start is VERY well done lol, it feels natural, good bit of humour too.

When Clawdi mentioning liking the girl character more I got a bit of an egg vibe from that, surprised that it was actually meant in that way. I love how the name came up, Allie probably had an effect on her for choosing it but saying she liked it.

Enidae are a family of snails! In German they are also sometimes called „Glutton snails“, apparently… 👁️👄👁️

Please remember that purgatory 3 is only 1 year away from release.

Manly is my comfort youtuber at this point. Let's Plays are nostalgic, and the running gags never get old to me.

I swear this game dev is everywhere and I love it! Arcade kittens artstyle is so unique I didn't even need to rwad the description to know who made the game. This one's in my top favorites, thank you for playing manly!

Imagine cat girl games

New video! Yeii! I'm finishing the Slay the Princess Playthrough and is awesome, this is a short break from that. Happy Holidays, Manly!

This is another type of horror, damn. Instead of using spooky monsters or creepy ambient music. Anytime a scene is supposed to be scary they keep it completely silent to let you sit in that fear and dread, not to mention unlike a lot of horror games, which usually use an abundance of gore and/or dead bodies, they only use 2 but don't hang on it for too long. They just show it then quickly move on, no music or stinger, not to mention the killer feels somewhat realistic, someone with a deranged idea of love rather than a lot of indie horror which just have someone who kills for the sake of killing, plus the twist at the end works so well, though i will say the sister leaving at the beginning kept me thinking "that's definitely gonna come back later". Maybe if they had mentioned it the night after ali lost the doll, like "oh this is why she's attached to this doll, and this scene is not for anything else". But over all an amazing RPG maker horror game Additional notes: plus how you aren't being chased by Enide, she just happens to catch you which is different. Also great trans representation :3

The earliest iv gotten to a manly video 🎉🎉🎉

The house only has one bedroom and one bed...

Wasn't really a fan of this one. It just... didn't really have that much of a real horror element to it? We've seen the premise a lot, and this one is fairly bare bones outside of the DDR minigames.

God I love those scared and terrified faces, especially after she was caught off guard and get plot-twisted by the woman...

As a crabby person myself I take no offense to your blatant crustacism. We like what we like

I think Enide actually liked Allie. Not like a love interest or anything, but like watching over a kid that you can’t help but look out for. I don’t think she ever intended to hurt her, even if it meant she might rat her out. 33:54 She’s clearly a sociopath but it seems like she formed a genuine connection with Allie. Why else would she just let her go, even after blatantly showing off a murder. The reason Enide laughed is probably because she figured this was the end, and was surprised by the prospect of Allie even considering keeping the promise. Ende didn’t even intend to stop her at that moment. You know what I think? I think Enide knew Allie was Tabby’s sister the whole time. Maybe it started off out of curiosity, exhilaration, or remorse but she intentionally made a connection with Allie. I think throughout that time, she genuinely grew to like Allie unlike all the connections she made before. Ende clearly wants a connection, given that she was jealous of Alli possessing the ability to love, and keeps all the gifts from past lovers, even after killing them. It seems strange that she would just leave those precious gifts behind. What if she left them for Allie? There’s no way Ende didn’t know Allie had the key. Perhaps, Ende wanted Alle to know the whole time? Either because she truly found love in either Alle or tabby, she wanted Alle to know what happened to her sister. Maybe it was some sociopathic form of guilt. If you think about it like that, it would make sense why she so nonchalantly showed Elle the head. Ende wanted to be found out! Alle keeping the secret is probably exactly opposite of what Ende wanted. Which is again, why she laughed. Ende, this sociopath, liked Alle so much that she even seriously considered of getting Alle a cake for her birthday. Did she want to make up with a “friend?” Regardless, she clearly thought against it. In short, I think Alle was never in danger because Ende, who was aware she is Tabby’s sister, wanted her to know in the first place.

Gonna be that guy and point out the continuity error: It's way too much of a coincidence for Tabby and Enide to know each other. Tabby left her original father's house maybe a few years before the beginning of the game; she kept sending letters to Allie until they moved, and after that, there were no more letters. The game mentions Allie and her father moved several times before settling at the coastside house. It is kind of implied the reason Tabby stopped writing letters to Allie was that she was unable to track down Allie's new addresses, but it may had as well been that Tabby got eaten. Casually becoming neighbors with your runaway sister's ex-and-murderer after moving so many times is suspiciously specific, and it looks more like a narrative decision taken retroactively to have a gut wrenching true ending. There is a possibility the "new people" Tabby's letters mentioned included Enide, and, since Tabby probably delivered the letters by herself in person, it could be that the beach and her original home are very close, but it sounds like a stretch. That said, it could be fixed through some better foreshadowing. Making Enide move in to the beachside house after Allie and her father moved there could imply she was trying to pursuit Allie's family, either because deep down she felt guilty about Tabby (kind of implied why she acts like a mother figure with Allie), even if unlikely due to her being a psychopath, or because she wanted to prey on Allie's father or even Allie herself, for some reason. Maybe Tabby was just the most delicious?

Yeah I had a feeling what was gonna be revealed in the true ending. Definitely sad but I must say the creator did a great job creating these characters and making them all interesting enough to connect to you in such a short amount of time. And, uh spoiler: Kudos to the whole crab gender changing deal. Mixing up how boys can act out during puberty with how crabs can change gender was cool and allowed his (at the time) bullying to become a red herring. Makes me curious if all that acting out was due to her worrying she wasn't going to change due to the hair growth.

love the unique character design. special pincer inthe end lol. keep up the good work man, love your vids

MANLY

Love a manly video while eating dinner

Thank you Manly, for introducing me to one of the best storytellers I've ever seen And thank you ArcadeKitten, for making story-focused games after pouring all your skillpoints into creativity

THE TRANS FLAG COLORING FOR THE CRAB KID IS SO WELL DONE OMG

I love indie games like this. Ones with a cute artstyle, and great storytelling. I really like this game, Fia's Night Out, Ara and the Empty Universe, Our way down, games like that. And that was an unfortunate true ending...

I was just looking into this game earlier, and to think Manly would play it hours after. Keep up the good work Manly.

Always love some RPG Maker content from Mr. BadassHero. My favorite.

Sad story but very cute style. Thanks Manly and dev for sharing this!

i feel so fast

11:40 I love thay Manly had to cut himself off and it even looks as if it was edited out (maybe he just stopped himself)

Red flags went up the moment I saw Enide and realized she's a cone snail

I love how you explain things to us
