(spoilers!)

Wow, I like how the two games connect in the first ending! It was also nice to see Newman and discover that the origin of everything is Static, after all, he's Newman's inspiration. 

I have nothing to complain about the game, it's short but you can digest the information very well and create theories, if there's a third game someday I'd play it too! I want to know more about SHOWTIME, I was neutral until I played this second one and started to see a little deeper, so I really hope there will be more in the future, it's very good and I'm not ready to say goodbye to Newman, Walker or even The Creator (who strangely looks like Newman, but that's just a coincidence right??).

Can I make fan art? The designs in both games are stellar!

of course!!!!

ENDING 3!!!!! ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’— AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

5/5, good game.

Great game! My only problem is that saving doesn't work.. 

(+1)

it should! I mean like, it worked when I tested it. It is probably a thing on your end as the web browser one is quite wacky depending on your device. Ex: mobile 

Okay thanks for telling me!

(+1)

Very polished! Interesting games, and great job on developing this!

(+1)(-1)

I love ending two its so silly :D

Very interesting game, honestly one of my favorites. Seemed less rushed than some other bigger and longer novels I've read honestly- And really, the art is amazing. I'd be willing to help with spellchecks in the future if you ever really need someone heh- 

(+1)

This game had an amazing start to a story, that could have been really cool. however the game was too short and too rushed for any actual content to form from it. There were too many unexplained things and nonsensical moments. I think if this was stretched into a longer game such as DDLC or Omori, it could have been really cool. The strongest point this game has is the character and environment designs. Overall I give this a generous 6/10

(+1)

thank you and I totally get that. Honestly the game was made in a week.  i am aiming to have future games be way longer and take more time. But idk when anything new will come out due to me finally getting into the real world soon. 

(+2)

I didn't play it but i have to say that your art and the character design is amazing :D!

(+2)

i- actually couldn't play the game to it's fullest..(thanks for the trigger warnings btw) bu t I played the first one and half of this game and so far it's absolutely amazing! great storytelling, fantastic visuals, 10/10

Thank you soo much for this game, I have absolutely adored it, and I canโ€™t wait to see more games from you!! Yea, hope you enjoy!! :D

Also, a little thing I noticed, am I the only one who thinks that-

(NOW ALERT, SPOILERS, IF YOU HAVENT PLAYED THE GAME PLAY IT FIRST >:[ )

Am I just imagining or something, or is the son of the man who got killed by Static looks STRANGELY FAMILIAR to Walker?

(+1)

Absolutley awesome. I played after the first one and I loved it, I'm looking foward for more from the Showtime series! :)

(+2)(-1)

Me and my partner want to make other games and new stories and universes! 

(+2)

(+2)

this is such a fun game i really like it!

(+2)

when i saw walker i was like "HOLY SHIT!!!" like i was so shocked that i jumped off my bed and kept gasping and saying omg for like six times-

(+1)

good!!! That was the intended affect!

i did the same >o<

(+1)

Thanks again for a great game! I personally think that there's lots of room for a 3rd game to deliver some mind blowing lore! Can't wait to see what you do next! :) 


(+2)

... I really need to fix my standards, The Creator should not have made me smile like that XDDDD

(+2)

anyways, this game is fucking awesome. Currently eating your art AND your writing

SHOWTIME: STATIC provides a twist to it's prequel unlike any other.

Gotta say, I was hooked the moment I stumbled across the thumbnail of it alone. The antagonist reminded me so much of a character that could've very well came out of Hazbin Hotel, so I just HAD to try it out.

I loved the dynamic between the Creator and Static. Somehow, I Feel like it could be an incredibly shippable character (please don't tell me I've unleashed something new onto Twitter)

(+2)

Amazing game! I'm loving this series. also whenever I got the second ending this happened lmao 

(+4)

thatโ€™s a bug I think is funny so Iโ€™m gonna keep it in.

(+2)

SO A-HAHAHA I BROUGHT PICTURES (The 1st game is refferred to as SHOWTIME! and the 2nd is STATIC)

you can freaking tell that's walker's father, right down to the way he makes his facial expressions, also don't know if he missin an eye or that's just the classic trope of a-hahaha he gon die why go through the trouble of makin shit symmetrical.  He got the friggin antennae thing that's attached with the line thing. the mouth, the yellow, and the color scheme matches up MMMM character design 10/10


SAME THING!!!! Color scheme... facial expression... we finally get a deeper look into the very best boy. HE WAS  A TODDLER AND HIS DAD JUST death he just- toddlers can't process emotion so its no wonder he was so awkward with his social life and just was terrible about breaking bad habits. Also that bunny is marketable as sh-

OMG just realized my mans dressed in a suit ohh shitballs

He grew up with most likely  a slew of mental illnesses and his mother  was probs just struggling emotionally and financially cuz now theres only one person to support the family.

Also he musta just wandered off outta curiousity or whatever, he must blame himself for.. (i dub thee Walker Sr) his father's death.

So yeah, also do hey have like BLOOD FILLED CABLES or just ENTRAILS or ??? SOMETHING?


please excuse me for any insensitivity in this next segment, if you have a problem with it, please feel free to correct me or ask me to remove it in the comments, I don't wanna bash anyone's disability, google is not correct 100% of the time, and living with mental illnesses and a disability myself I will be completely understanding. <3

I think walker's a cryptid, which seems like a no-brainer theory, but allow me to go in depth lol. So, I ASSUME Y'all have gotten the true ending of SHOWTIME! Which if you haven't stop romancing him true endings are cool.

I believe he's a gud lil boy, up until Walker Sr's death. He spilt into 2 different people, one that wants to forget all his trauma, and have the childhood that was stolen away from him, which is walker. The other is Newman, one that vents his trauma and protects the safety and happiness of walker. For example, he only attacks you after you reject him in SHOWTIME!. Newman is so very bottled up by walker and IS walker, in reality. That's why he said he made him in showtime. Newman knows that the childhood he so very wants isn't real, so Walker isn't. Newman is the og and Walker is the newer one.(?)

Due to Newman being bottled up feelings, he grows angrier with every feeling suppsressed, and therefore more violent.

I mean, according to google, most personality disorders stem from childhood trauma, and I think seeing your father's torso get dissected by an eldritch horror of your own "kind" and thinking you're to blame qualifies.

After all Newman did stem from Static so, that's why he was his inspiration...

(Images ain't working again, COMING BACK LATER.)

Once again, sorry for any insensitivity.

(+1)

alright go right ahead!!!!! ๐Ÿฅบ canโ€™t wait to see what your thoughts are!

(+2)

EDit 1 done ;-;

(+2)

for the whole blood thing I just thought the contrast of the neon world to realistic red blood would have a nice effect.


now Iโ€™m gonna be real with you. NewMan was always there,  he wasnโ€™t created because of the traumatic event he was inspired by it to start being violent. He was born when Walker was. And Iโ€™m the flashback Walker is 7 years old. 


Newman isnโ€™t Walker, and Walker isnโ€™t NewMan. They are two completely separate people who do happen to be in the same body. I personally didnโ€™t want or even now label Walker with any kind of mental disorder because I donโ€™t want to give a bad light with how it was written. ๐Ÿ˜”

Oops sorry about that-

My favorite part about theorizing is being terribly wrong, because it goes to show how different human experiences can cause everything to come out out of even a single vague line :D

Still gonna finish my theory for that reason lol.

(+1)

itโ€™s alright!! I like to hear what else you think!
