Ollie's Experience

[simple sonnet]

THERE'S FOUR OF THEM NOW

[wet trout]

they're just your fanclub

[simple sonnet]

at least they can't go through pipes

[wet trout]

[simple sonnet]

like

No

[wet trout]

Ollie's bird fanclub

[simple sonnet]

tryna tell me there's a threat

when like

I can see it

with my eyes

[coarse compass]

I hate when that happens

Oh yo!! Double kill

[simple sonnet]

Yeah

[coarse compass]

Yooooo

[wet trout]

"path of the pacifist" "double kill" 🥹

[coarse compass]

[simple sonnet]

Double Spare

[coarse compass]

For fun

[simple sonnet]

I was so happy

[simple sonnet]

until I wasn't

[coarse compass]

John rain world

[coarse compass]

[coarse compass]

True

I have reached the bottom of the thread

[simple sonnet]

All caught up

[simple sonnet]

eliminate

yellow eyes

orange eyes

[coarse compass]

Memoryy crypts is cool

[stone cobalt]

a way for

did you say four

[simple sonnet]

NO

[coarse compass]

4 wheel drive

** ** * car ad comes on *

[real geyser]

Memory crypts is cool yes
very atmospheric

[simple sonnet]

Rain World mod that adds ads

[simple sonnet]

Yessss

[simple sonnet]

every shelter has a screen that ads play on so the slugcat can't get good sleep

[real geyser]

it just plays an add before the sleep screen

[simple sonnet]

the most stressful game ever

(it's this game)

[real geyser]

as one of those between-cycle cutscenes

but it's just you watching an ad

[simple sonnet]

peak

I'm so cooked

I am nowhere near a shelter

Idk how close rain is

what is that

[lunar ingot]

BORING?

[untold swallow]

Yup

[simple sonnet]

HOW MANY

there was another there but it left

[simple sonnet]

IKR
It's DISGRACEFUL

[untold swallow]

Oh yeah....I hate shaded BECAUSE of these birds

[lunar ingot]

bro this game be the opposite

[real geyser]

Rain World players fall into two categories

"best game ever"

and

[lunar ingot]

Im on best game ever

Im addicted

[untold swallow]

They shit on me for playing peppa pig 💔 MIND YOU I WANTED TO 100% IT FOR THE SILLIES LMAO

[real geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/rain-world-slugcat-the-survivor-green-lizard-survivor-gif-26087460

[untold swallow]

So true

[simple sonnet]

I hate shaded because of the spiders
the metal birds aren't special, I found them in Subterranean too
Shaded Citadel is just Subterranean 2

[lunar ingot]

Nawww

[untold swallow]

Damn bro, couldnt do anything

[simple sonnet]

YEAGH LOL

[lunar ingot]

Yeah there wasn’t some poles!

[untold swallow]

Oh there in sub too? Pain 💔

[simple sonnet]

there's nothing they could possibly do in this situation

[simple sonnet]

they're not allowed to have any opinions on anything anymore

[untold swallow]

Ong 💔💔

[simple sonnet]

same
it's peak

"it's peak"
I say, before looking back at the screen and being reminded of the 15 giant metal birds fighting each other next to me

[real geyser]

in all seriousness though I think Rain World appeals to a very specific mindset

[simple sonnet]

I think I had the right mindset for this game

[real geyser]

and if you don't mesh with it it feels really frustrating and/or pointless

[simple sonnet]

You have to enjoy being weak and pathetic and useless if you want to play this game

[real geyser]

and also be willing to do a little outside-the-box thinking

[simple sonnet]

Yeah

"Oh an enemy to fight" ❌
"Oh no what is that I need to get out of here" ✅

is

that

what

I

think it is?

[real geyser]

[stone cobalt]

[hardy fox]

i dunno

[stone cobalt]

is it

[simple sonnet]

I
am gonna lose my mind

Woah the sky flashed bright green for just like

a fraction of a second

[hardy fox]

just say what it is so we can also be shocked i dont know whats going on 😭

[simple sonnet]

either I'm hallucinating
or that is
THE GIANT CENTIPEDE(S) FROM SUBTERRANEAN

[hardy fox]

oh ok

[stone cobalt]

maybe

[simple sonnet]

THERE'S A CENTIPEDE OVER THERE

WHY
WHYUYYYUYUYY

IT'S JUST SUBTERRANEAN 2

[stone cobalt]

welcome to shubterranean

[real geyser]

It really is just Subterranean 2 huh

[simple sonnet]

it's just subterranean 2

[hardy fox]

well what if its the somewhat similar looking friendlypede that is friendly

[stone cobalt]

nothing is friendly in rain world unfortunately

[hardy fox]

a couple of things at least

you've had to have seen some of it

you did capitalism for example

[simple sonnet]

Dot and are nice

[simple sonnet]

Yeah the Scavengers can be nice too

[stone cobalt]

led you to shaded citadel

is it really nice

[simple sonnet]

I think it's trying to lead me to something that's in Shaded Citadel, not the region itself

[real geyser]

shh they haven't gotten to the part where pulls out a knife and stabs you to death, they still think they're friendly
don't spoil

[stone cobalt]

[simple sonnet]

...who's gonna tell him.

[stone cobalt]

sorry yeah pulls out a knife and stabs you to death

[simple sonnet]

NOOOOOO

I still don't know who the 2 blue s are

Wait

I'm cooked

I think it's raining

[stone cobalt]

every cycle brings you just a little bit closer to making progress

[simple sonnet]

what am I meant to do here

[stone cobalt]

run

[hardy fox]

mc is a bit of a trek so yea you do have to go fast

[simple sonnet]

the nearest shelter is like 51 regions away

[real geyser]

Run with the birds

[simple sonnet]

kinda hard when metal bird is camping me

[stone cobalt]

believe in the and the shelters will appear

[hardy fox]

it can even be kinda rng-y with the rain cycle tbh but idk if thats me being bad at the game

[simple sonnet]

I mean Ig I can try...

[hardy fox]

is it still that clump of birds

[simple sonnet]

Yes.

they aren't even running

[hardy fox]

dang

[real geyser]

I mean I think it's always theoretically possible regardless of your luck

[simple sonnet]

there are centipedes

[real geyser]

as with everything else in the game

[simple sonnet]

in the pile of birds

[hardy fox]

theoretically, but not practically?

[simple sonnet]

WHGAT THEHTEHTEHLHLL

Okay.

[untold swallow]

Oh...its ded

[simple sonnet]

the rain
it was raining

then it paused

then the rain started looking like bullets or something

then I instantly died

[hardy fox]

running with scissors smh smh

wait it wasnt even the bird clump that killed you

ah man i thought you made a dash for it

[simple sonnet]

Yeah I got shot by rain

Time to do that all again

and probably die again

THIS GOES

SO FAR

this is like

not all of it

at all

there better be like

food and shelter at the end

I won't get my hopes up.

Shaded Citadel - Cycle 77

[simple sonnet]

[stone cobalt]

[simple sonnet]

THIS

THIS LIZARD

JUST THREW ME OFF INTO THE PIT

[violet depot]

They really threw you off, huh?

[simple sonnet]

okay so like why

why are there whiter lizards

hm

I can't decide if this is worse or better

I have no idea how to counter these things

so you can kinda force the to eat inedible things

what if I eat like

a spear

I'm assuming instant death

[inland ledge]

ex-spear-ament

[simple sonnet]

I would if my life wasn't constantly in danger

I'm dying a lot

WHY

ARE THE ROPE MIMICS BACK

THE CAMERA IS SO BAD HERE

I hate the camera sometimes
literally the ONLY thing I dislike about this game

[inland ledge]

Not 🕷️ ?

[simple sonnet]

No those are creepy but they don't make the game actively worse

OH MY GOD I DROPPED MY LAMP INTO THE ABYSS

might just die to get it back...

okay I died regardless if I wanted to or not

I JUST LAUNCHED A LIZARD ALL THE WAY DOWN

LOL

Ew.

what is that.

why is it disgusting.

I can hold it
uh

[hardy fox]

the leg really likes its tongue guys

[simple sonnet]

WAIT

WHAT

You're joking right

[inland ledge]

[simple sonnet]

this is like

crayz

crazy

[hardy fox]

blep

[inland ledge]

👀

[simple sonnet]

[vale trail]

lovely list honestly

[simple sonnet]

IT'S LIKE

[vale trail]

[hardy fox]

congratulations

[simple sonnet]

omg this game is actually giving me stuff

[hardy fox]

[stone cobalt]

rain world gives

and rain world takes

and rain world takes

and rain world takes

and rain world takes

and r

[inland ledge]

Equal trade

[hardy fox]

i mean a grappling hook is a pretty big give

[simple sonnet]

and a lamp

I'm struggling

WAIT

https://medal.tv/games/rain-world/clips/m09tnsyRGMY90MrOw?invite=cr-MSw0eDMsNDgzNjU4OTE3

IT'S LIKE

THE COOLEST THING

EVER

[stone cobalt]

my reaction when seeing these things:

i took it with me all the way

[simple sonnet]

I'm gonna die to rain before I finish this platforming

[stone cobalt]

[inland ledge]

"Pain World"

[simple sonnet]

I CAN'T DO THE PARKOUR

[inland ledge]

took like 30 deaths and searching up movement guides before i realized to use the worms

[simple sonnet]

bro it's raining

I'm gonna die again

[hardy fox]

mm

[simple sonnet]

WHY IS THIS SO DIFFICULT

WHJAT IS HAPPENING

WHY AM I GETTINH BLOWN UP

okay I'm getting electrocuted?

the rain is causing green explosion things

and I'm getting pushed around

I can't do anything and I'm not dead

[violet depot]

You fool, I have a pink candy boom.

I have become Monk from Rain World.

[simple sonnet]

uhh

I can't do anything

[hardy fox]

is it like, forever

it might be the room that wont kill you for some reason

[simple sonnet]

Ig?
it's been doing for a bit and I'm not dead

[hardy fox]

i think its like one room thats kinda buggy in vanilla or something

[simple sonnet]

paused the game because my eyes are getting obliterated

[hardy fox]

just restart

oh photosensitivity warning i guess

[simple sonnet]

does anyone else know if there's anything I can do before I restart

[inland ledge]

nope

the electricity is supposed to kill you

[hardy fox]

its just glitchy

youre just going to be ragdolled forever

[simple sonnet]

that sucks

Ig I'll go back again...

[stone cobalt]

welcome to rain world

[simple sonnet]

Glitch World

[untold swallow]

It took me hours to get the hang of the parkour

[simple sonnet]

oh no
I can't carry 3 items at once...

[untold swallow]

Specially to use the worms

[simple sonnet]

this is the first time I have ever had this problem

[stone cobalt]

what 3 items do you need to carry

[simple sonnet]

spear
lamp
worm
gonna leave the spear since that's the only one I know is everywhere

[stone cobalt]

why keep the lamp on you

[simple sonnet]

what if I go somewhere dark again

I had to pay for that lamp

[hardy fox]

nobody spoil him about the juggling mechanic guys

oops

[simple sonnet]

the what

[hardy fox]

the juggling mechanic

[simple sonnet]

[stone cobalt]

first the backstabbing

[hardy fox]

thats definitely in the game

[stone cobalt]

and now the juggling mechanic??

[untold swallow]

You can juggle?

[stone cobalt]

this spoiling is getting bad.

[simple sonnet]

dang
what is 🌧️🌎 even about

[hardy fox]

sorry its like 5 am i’ll go to bed now

[untold swallow]

[stone cobalt]

you can always get another

[simple sonnet]

Yeah but I need to find a scavenger who has one and a pearl

that's way more difficult then getting a spear

[stone cobalt]

contribute to the scavenger economy

[simple sonnet]

the worms are gross

unimaginable agony

the weakest player character in fiction

FINALYL

FINALLY

I DID IT

IT'S RAINING

NO

SHELTER

YES

[hardy fox]

did you make it

[simple sonnet]

I MADE ITTT

nearly fell out of my chair

[hardy fox]

yay

[lunar ingot]

rain world does that to you!

[simple sonnet]

What.

the

actual

is THAT

[untold swallow]

Wha

[simple sonnet]

. . .

[lunar ingot]

mmm

[untold swallow]

I hate them...so...much

[simple sonnet]

I don't know how to react to this

okay it ate me immediately

uh

Why.

I'm not even mad
or sad
or even disappointed
Just
Why

IT DIDN'T EVEN EAT MY WORM THING IT JUST ATE ME

Everything blue in this game is evil.

[untold swallow]

Dw Ollie, their gonna be your bestie

[simple sonnet]

I feel like I doubt it

Ima do one more cycle and then I'm gonna stop for now

[untold swallow]

No nooooo, he's gonna be your bestie

[simple sonnet]

he killed me instantly

[untold swallow]

Just wave to him

Look at him nicely

[empty verge]

those are so annoying indeed

[simple sonnet]

the question is

is it still there

[untold swallow]

...probably

Maybe

[simple sonnet]

Yes it is

I have a firework this time

okay I missed the firework and died

[untold swallow]

LMFAO

[simple sonnet]

that's enough for now

made progress

[untold swallow]

That was an epic episode of Ollie's Rainworld experience

[simple sonnet]

Discovered "The Leg"
"Mastered" swingworms (they look like worms and they let you swing across gaps so Ig I'll call them that for now)
Encountered The Mass

[hardy fox]

gn x3

[untold swallow]

Are you naming the blue thing the mass?

[simple sonnet]

Yes

because uh

it's The Mass

[untold swallow]

Valid

Ong

[simple sonnet]

the Mass is going to be a menace I can already tell

52 hours

[simple sonnet]

Goodnight!!
(I'm not going to sleep yet but I will soon)

[untold swallow]

Fair Goodnight

[stone cobalt]

oh you found The Mass™

[simple sonnet]

Gotta love The Mass™

Yesn't.

[patent flume]

The Mass™

[coarse compass]

trueeeee

[coarse compass]

yeah

[coarse compass]

[coarse compass]

even the <explodes from spoielrs>?

[coarse compass]

f

[coarse compass]

LEGS

[coarse compass]

lol true

[coarse compass]

that is some great pause menu text

[coarse compass]

wormy

[coarse compass]

it is yeah i got stuck there a few times

its just bugged

[coarse compass]

too many spoilers in this thread

[coarse compass]

🫐

[coarse compass]

uhh your worm??? the blue fruit?????????????

[coarse compass]

ooooooooooo i like those names

The Mass™

[wheat tulip]

whaaat ur already in the leg

[inland ledge]

52 hour speedrun

[untold swallow]

Excited for another episode of Oillies Slug adventure when they play again

[simple sonnet]

I'll have to play more today
Next episode we'll deal with The Mass

Assuming I can even get past it...

[simple sonnet]

I didn't see any really big ones thankfully, just the small edible ones

[untold swallow]

Yipeee

[simple sonnet]

okay ALMOST everything blue is evil in this game

[simple sonnet]

Idk what I'm doing I'm just following and mostly running around aimlessly

[simple sonnet]

gross but very useful wormy

[simple sonnet]

slowrun

[simple sonnet]

dang
is there like
a bugfix planned
is this a common issue

[hardy fox]

if they fix the bouncy castle room i’ll delete my rain world

[untold swallow]

You should name

[simple sonnet]

Idk calling "" is really funny

[hardy fox]

super mario dialogue

[untold swallow]

True lmfao

[simple sonnet]

what do I actually call by their correct names in this game
uh

"Scavengers"

"Lizards"

that's like

Idk centipedes and spiders??

[hardy fox]

those are all the obvious ones yea

[untold swallow]

I think the spiders in shaded are actually called spiders

[hardy fox]

there are also some canon names that are like

[untold swallow]

I didnt have much of an experience with them

[hardy fox]

clearly not what theyre called in-universe thats juts something so the devs and fans have a name for them

[simple sonnet]

scavengers I got because I had no clue what to call them
saw someone else call them that somewhere
so they're scavengers now

[hardy fox]

maybe "canon" with quotation marks or an asterisk

oh oop

scavengers are namedropped fairly liberally

[untold swallow]

Alot of Canon names i know for these creatures i found out through someone else ._."
So I never named them smth silly myself

[hardy fox]

ive heard goblins and monkeys for scavengers

[simple sonnet]

I mean doesn't the game literally call the merchant one in subterranean a scavenger
I think

those make sense

Swingworms and The Mass
I actually really like that the game doesn't give the creatures names

[hardy fox]

i think "crocodiles" for specifically the green lizards is a cute one

its such a silly word but its like, yea they are crocodily

[simple sonnet]

I've been calling the pink looking ones in subterranean and shoreline "Axolotls"

[untold swallow]

I think THE MASS is much more suiting for it bc its basically a mass that..is....terrifying

[simple sonnet]

the mass

[hardy fox]

are you playing rn or are you playing later btw

[untold swallow]

...I always thought they were axolotls lowkey

[hardy fox]

kinda curious what you'll think of the up aheads

[untold swallow]

I am too

[simple sonnet]

later

[hardy fox]

i think the fishy lizards are definitely axolotl inspired yea

[simple sonnet]

I need to like
lock in to play Rain World

[untold swallow]

Real

I forgot where I left off

[simple sonnet]

play Silksong rn
much more relaxing game

[inland ledge]

Is Hollow knight/silksong worth it if you enjoy Rain World?

[hardy fox]

you'll very likely like those yea

its not rain world though

easy to get lost and stuff btb so yk

but in a different kinda way

[coarse compass]

I wonder does hollow knight server have a first playthrough forum like we do

[simple sonnet]

it doesn't sadly

[hardy fox]

at least hk has a billion lets plays

well maybe it doesnt

actually i dont know how hk and rw compare

surely hk has more

[coarse compass]

Rain world server superiority strikes again

I was initially hesitant to join this server because I didn't know there's places to avoid spoiler

If I could play survivor blind again that's probably the main thing I would have done differently

[simple sonnet]

that's why I was so surprised by this server

[coarse compass]

This server was just so well designed and I was like damn

[simple sonnet]

would you eat the server

[coarse compass]

Yeah

[fickle marsh]

omg ikr

[coarse compass]

Gotta get the food pios somehow

[fickle marsh]

i joined and everyone was so friendly

joining community discords is a gamble

[coarse compass]

bullies

[fickle marsh]

bullies BACK

[coarse compass]

How could you do this to me

[fickle marsh]

im sorry i didnt mean it

[simple sonnet]

everyone is so nice here

[wet trout]

they're completely different games imo

but

the fandoms do have a lot of overlap

you'll meet a lot of rain world players who like hk

i'd say if you wouldn't mind a game that has more combat focused gameplay then yeah

you can always try hk first and see if you like it, i've heard silksong is much more difficult

they're not that similar though other than open world map

[hardy fox]

i have this vague idea that if you like rw youre like 99% likely to like hk too

but not the other way around as much

[simple sonnet]

sorry I haven't played yet silksong is killing me irl

I'm like literally dead

[solemn canyon]

rip ollie ????-2026

[wheat tulip]

HK is not like rw in the sense that its not so cryptic and like

you do usually have a direction of where to go

enemies are fair and easy to leaen

so yah

its good to just play

[coarse compass]

Ahh

[wheat tulip]

rain world playthrus can be very crazy

its a very weird kinda game

[coarse compass]

Oh I know this from experience

Sometimes I get flabbergasted

[wheat tulip]

yea, it's one of the most unique game experiences ever made

so i guess it makes sense to have a first playthru forum

[coarse compass]

I was when I found out that Ollie went outskirts -> farm arrays

[wheat tulip]

Me too lol

[coarse compass]

I still have no idea how that's even possible

[wheat tulip]

he really locked in to have karma 5 to go through

[coarse compass]

Sadly I had a map of the world from the start

[coarse compass]

The scav toll!!!

[wheat tulip]

IDK how he managed that tbh

prolly a lucky cycle with a vulture attacking them lol

[coarse compass]

And it's in such a strange location too

[wheat tulip]

but otherwise it remains mysterious

to me

[simple sonnet]

Karma?

[simple sonnet]

Scav toll??

guys no spoilers

[simple sonnet]

uhh
where was the entrance again
I'll look at the map later

I know I gave one of the scavengers a pearl and they didn't kill me

[untold swallow]

I got to that entrance last night

[wheat tulip]

thats where u went thru already

[simple sonnet]

Why are you looking at this if you haven't finished the game yourself...

[simple sonnet]

ohh

[untold swallow]

Bc I am...?

[wheat tulip]

question

do you like the games music so far?

[simple sonnet]

YES.

[wheat tulip]

so far whats ur favorite one?

like which one played in area and u liked it

[simple sonnet]

that is a difficult choice

[wheat tulip]

when you beat it i know there will be some strong favorites

[simple sonnet]

Yeah

[wheat tulip]

i love this games unique soundtrack

why he look like that...

[stone cobalt]

why you dont

[modern yew]

@wheat tulip @coarse compass please be mindful that this is a first playthrough post and they have expressed that they do not want spoilers
just be sure to move side conversations elsewhere next time

[wet trout]

cute worm emoji

🐛👍

[simple sonnet]

swingworms

🪱

[violet depot]

I ate the swingworms because they looked at me funny.

[simple sonnet]

dang

okay so uh

I might've gotten a little distracted by everything plot relevant ever happening in silksong

IT'S RAIN WORLD TIME!!!

TITLE SCREEN!!

[modern yew]

artfight worm

[simple sonnet]

who's online

I took too long-

okay wahtever uhh

The Leg

Cycle 79

oh no it's coming down here

okay getting past this thing is gonna be annoying

the swingworm isn't helping at all

IT KEEPS SHOOTING THE ONE I DON'T WANT TO HIT

I can't get past it

I just die every time

hm

I've died like 6 times already

uhh

[violet depot]

Trust it.

[simple sonnet]

it's shooting the one I'm already at

it's like

immune to the firework

why

why is the firework even there

I GOT PAST IT

THERE'S ANOTHER ONE

THERE'S A THIRD ONE

I

hate this place

it sucks

I fell and died

[lunar ingot]

zam

[simple sonnet]

I MIGHT be bad

these things are the worst

[real geyser]

Oh hey, the Leg

[simple sonnet]

The Leg is awful I hate it here

[real geyser]

love that place

[simple sonnet]

but there's no spiders so it's acceptable

these don't gross me out as much surprisingly

I believe this is where I'll die the most times in this game so far...

spears stun them for a second(?)

is there something I'm meant to do or

because I'm dying a lot

I must keep climbing...

I keep dying on the second one

and I thought the metal birds were bad...

oh hey a symbol I actually recognize

I KEEP DYINGG

The Masses are very difficult to get past.

there's like

no counter to this apart from just dodge

This has to lead to something

otherwise it wouldn't be called "The Leg" and be a giant climb

Oh

hm

okay I can kinda avoid them

[young wind]

[simple sonnet]

this place

sucks

Wait is it about to rain

ughh

okay I died right in front of a shelter

[dull viper]

rip

[simple sonnet]

the worst feeling

I don't think I can get up there without a spear

No I can't do that

I got a spear

BUT THIS IDIOT

IS GONNA CAMP HERE UNTIL THE RAIN COMES

I DID IT

LETSQ GOOOO

Wait.

...

[young wind]

[simple sonnet]

last time I saw this

was before I met Dot.

Anyways I GOT PAST THE MASSES!!!

Now, to seek answers.

what is that noise

[somber quail]

Underhang

new music

[somber quail]

yoooo

congrats

thats... actually more cycles than i've got on my campaign...

[simple sonnet]

I have 52 hours
this is my first ever playthrough

Idek what Underhang IS

[somber quail]

ah

[simple sonnet]

but I will find out myself soon

[somber quail]

yes!

first we under, then we hang

[simple sonnet]

nvm I hate it here

[young wind]

The first campaign is always the longest

[simple sonnet]

fourth Mass + Orange Lizards are back

[somber quail]

oh you met those ones

[simple sonnet]

uhh

did I just softlock myself

[somber quail]

?

[simple sonnet]

I went into a pipe as a mass was going through it

[somber quail]

ohhh

[simple sonnet]

MASSES CAN GO THROUGH PIPES BY THE WAY

[somber quail]

oh yeah

[simple sonnet]

and now I'm just kinda gone

[untold swallow]

Are we supposed to have alot of cycles

[simple sonnet]

I've just vanished

[somber quail]

the mass can do that

[simple sonnet]

like

there's no death screen

I'm just gone

Is this a bug?

again...?

[somber quail]

uhhh

you may need to just take the karma L on this one

[simple sonnet]

I can't do anything

[somber quail]

i'd reccomend pausing the game then restarting the cycle

[young wind]

Ohh did it push you oob?

[simple sonnet]

this is the second time I've been softlocked in this region alone
this area's so broken...

[young wind]

You can crawl out if it happens

[real geyser]

wait hold on

[simple sonnet]

not resetting yet dw

[real geyser]

if you get stuck in a wall you can climb out

[somber quail]

i think its just that the mass is janky

[simple sonnet]

Huh

this is my screen rn

[real geyser]

the inside of a wall is legally a very viscous, breathable liquid, just in case this happens

[young wind]

It's just the case with any very big animal

Open your map

[somber quail]

oh

wait

can you go back through the pipe?

[untold swallow]

Where the...are you?!

[somber quail]

under the hang

[untold swallow]

Ik their in the underhang but...where on screen 😭 there's no slug

Just...mass

[simple sonnet]

I see

[young wind]

[real geyser]

Every playthrough has that one exact moment

[somber quail]

seems to be UW_AO8

[simple sonnet]

I CAN MOVE

[real geyser]

shhh

[simple sonnet]

I CAN MOVEE!!!!

[young wind]

Yeah you just crawl back out and try not to exit right into the mass

[somber quail]

the names dont really matter if you aint look at it dw

[real geyser]

fair... but still

[simple sonnet]

no spoilers

[real geyser]

less spoilers and more technical stuff you don't really need to know about

[simple sonnet]

okay so we have a new issue

why is the leg the only region I've found with bugs

[real geyser]

I think the issue is you're still legally in the upper room

[young wind]

You need to climb up, not down

[real geyser]

and the lower one won't load unless you reach it via pipe

[young wind]

[somber quail]

this is but a taste of the bugs that people have discovered 😭 (unfortunately)

[simple sonnet]

fix the leg when, it's so glitchy here

[simple sonnet]

I'll like die tho

the mass...

[young wind]

This isn't a leg specific glitch

[somber quail]

does the leg imply the existence of an arm? i dunno actually but now im curious

[young wind]

Find a way

[real geyser]

This can happen anywhere if you get the right type of physics jank
I don't think it's this region's fault.

[simple sonnet]

okay true

however the lightning

[somber quail]

the lightning

[real geyser]

atmospheric

[young wind]

[simple sonnet]

No I mean the rain lightning in that one room where you just bounce around forever

[young wind]

Asmr

[real geyser]

Ah yeah

[simple sonnet]

Rain World ASMR

[real geyser]

I'm not sure if explaining why that bug happens would be a spoiler. It probably is?

[simple sonnet]

FREEDOM!!

Wait

THIS IDIOT IS STUCK

HE CAN'T GET OUT

he's stucik

on the pipe

I need to get through

softlocked-

it's gonna rain

[empty verge]

this happened to me back in outskirts

[simple sonnet]

well I am 100% gonna die

[young wind]

Back to the grind then

[simple sonnet]

I died

but I will persevere...
Again.

"I survived 100 Cycles in Rain World"

oh it's midnight for me now dang

I need to know...

THIS GUY

[simple sonnet]

I feel like you could abuse this bug somehow

[young wind]

It has its uses

[simple sonnet]

menace to slug soceity

[dull viper]

maybe it was upset that cycle you should give it a hug

[simple sonnet]

SHELTER

SHELTER

SHELTER

thanks to the conveniently placed sign telling me where the shelter was

[coarse compass]

sorry ollie
i should have not mentioned that. i also should have deleted the other guys message but that kind of went under my radar?

[simple sonnet]

it's okay just be careful

I fell in the pit and died.

Blue

pain and agony aside, I think this region is pretty cool

okay died again

made progress today

gonna head to bed

Determination...

[coarse compass]

rip slug

[lunar ingot]

[sweet tusk]

It's ok, little slugcat. You'll wake right back up again.

Whether you want to or not.

Progress is good though, and it comes in many forms. Even if you die a lot and don't make it to the next shelter, you're making progress in the form of knowledge and experience.

[simple sonnet]

Wait

is The Leg and the Underhang

both sub areas

of

[coarse compass]

Idk is it???

[simple sonnet]

well I'm assuming so since this menu calls it the Exterior and not the Leg

[coarse compass]

Any theories for why this is called the exterior????

[simple sonnet]

Well there's a lot of like
open space

space I can't look out into

what happens if I eat my grappling hook...

ominous red lights

oh wait what

uhh

[coarse compass]

[simple sonnet]

hm

I'm curious

but

do I want to keep exploring this place...

I can't go in

THE MASS

Hmm

[stone cobalt]

[simple sonnet]

either this will be a new area or it'll be Shaded Citadel

[violet depot]

It is actually Evil Citadel and everything is evil. There are also 200 spiders waiting right behind that evil gate hidden.

[simple sonnet]

what is karma this is the second time someone's said it
No spoilers

but yes you are correct

okay here we go

[violet depot]

Sowwy.

[simple sonnet]

oh wait we can go further up here

okay what new hellscape is here

hm

"Five Pebbles"

[violet depot]

A thousand Boulders.

[simple sonnet]

what

shelter

Hm

Wait

WAIT

IS WANDERER

ALL THE REGIONS?

"Five Pebbles"

and there's the

[simple sonnet]

these

stop everything

WHAT

THERE'S

THERE'S NO GRAVITY HERE

the only other place with no gravity

was the Depths

the bottom of the world

and the top of the world...

[stone cobalt]

🪨 🪨 🪨 🪨 🪨

[fickle marsh]

🪨🪨🪨🪨🪨

[simple sonnet]

wh

where are the five pebbles..

this is messed up

the music's weird and there's no gravity

the swingworm doesn't work anymore

[fickle marsh]

we just typed them

[simple sonnet]

this place has something to do with the depths, surely...

Maybe

[simple sonnet]

well
gravity manipulation

WHY

WHAT

THERE'S THE

Dot's glowing white things but they move around and are Red/Blue

WAIT NO THEY CHANGE COLOURS

AND

THERE'S EVIL GRASS

ON THE CEILING

I CAN'T MOVE

WHAT ARE THOSE

wth

EVIL GRASS 2

Why

[somber quail]

wait you've been to the depths?

[simple sonnet]

Yes

saw the guy from the broken script

[somber quail]

damn i missed a lot

[simple sonnet]

3 of them

pestered them until I died

then I didn't go back because someone said I couldn't do much there

[somber quail]

when at the crossroads or something

im turning left

[simple sonnet]

WTH

THERE IS

A BIG RED THING??

centipede???

[somber quail]

idk man

[simple sonnet]

I can barely move

[somber quail]

but if it is a centipede idk how it works in zero g

[simple sonnet]

it's is SO difficult to move

[somber quail]

zero g is both a gift and a curse (mostly a curse)

[simple sonnet]

this is like

impossible

[somber quail]

✅

[simple sonnet]

FINALLY

Idk if I'm going the right way

beeping

okay so this grass doesn't seem too evil

[somber quail]

now i must tell the truth, i dont have too much knowledge of how this area works, but im exited to see how you react to it

[simple sonnet]

WHAT

IT'S THE MASS??

[somber quail]

the mass is back

[fickle marsh]

oh, those? 🫐

[stone cobalt]

welcome to five pebbles

[somber quail]

cursed blueberries

[simple sonnet]

WTH

[stone cobalt]

it is named this because you feel like youre getting five pebbles thrown at you every time you enter another room

[simple sonnet]

"Five Pebbles - Unfortunate Development"

[somber quail]

quite unfortunate

[simple sonnet]

screenshake + the world getting darker

[somber quail]

did anything change?

[simple sonnet]

and there's more of this stuff

there's a shelter

but I can't go in because I don't have food.

there's no food around here

[somber quail]

no food

[simple sonnet]

NEW MUSIC

also wth

[stone cobalt]

every region has food

[somber quail]

five pebbles is quite a rough region

[simple sonnet]

why is it spinning

[stone cobalt]

oh yeah they do that sometimes

[simple sonnet]

w h a t

[simple sonnet]

Well none of it is near me

what is this game even about anymore

WAIUT WHAT

[stone cobalt]

im curious to hear

[simple sonnet]

WHAAT

THE GRAVITY COMES BACK WHEN THE POWER GOES OUT

[stone cobalt]

what do you think this place is

[simple sonnet]

this means there must be some kind of machine causing the gravity to vanish

[simple sonnet]

hm

Well

lead me here.

there's the little glowing things Dot had but in different colours

the mass is everywhere and like

in the walls and stuff

[somber quail]

honestly

[simple sonnet]

and there's presumably a machine removing the gravity but this place is so unstable it doesn't work half the time

[somber quail]

im kinda sad watching this first playthrough because i got major spoiled (it was my fault)
getting to play this game without outside knowledge is a peak experience

[stone cobalt]

to quote the ancient scripts

"Grab, eat, and throw everything you see, in that order."

[somber quail]

i thought it was grab throw and eat

[stone cobalt]

idk

[somber quail]

actually i think i've seen both

[stone cobalt]

me getting major spoiled and then forgetting everything:

[somber quail]

once new dlc comes out im going to avoid spoilers like that one guy in the matrix avoiding bullets

but this is about Ollie

[simple sonnet]

oh I just got eaten by the walls

okay cool

Wait

I'M GONNA BE SO FAR AWAY

so yeah new region
Five Pebbles

this might end up being the worst region so far

[somber quail]

we will see

[stone cobalt]

perhaps look for other paths you can explore

if you ever feel youre banging your head against the wall too much

[simple sonnet]

if so yeah

[simple sonnet]

there's also the same screen things that were in Dot's place

[stone cobalt]

interesting

[simple sonnet]

I HATE THIS PLACE ALREADY!!!!!

[simple sonnet]

...
This place has so many similarities to Looks to the Moon...

[stone cobalt]

where would you rate this region on a scale from shoreline to subterranean

[simple sonnet]

Hmm

it's not creepy or gross, just ominous and really annoying to traverse
probably inbetween, nothing will beat Shaded Citadel and Subterranean

[stone cobalt]

underhang beat both on my first playthrough

[simple sonnet]

underhang wasn't too bad

the swingworms works

[stone cobalt]

imagine getting eaten by the mass and the lizards and the sky and other such things

[simple sonnet]

sometimes.

[stone cobalt]

for several hours straight

on the same cycle

[simple sonnet]

like once in a Blue ||Looks to the|| Moon

I NEED FOOD

[stone cobalt]

that was me

[empty verge]

oh your in 5p?

[simple sonnet]

THE MASS

NO

dang it

[simple sonnet]

Five Pebbles

[empty verge]

oh

thats great progress
