restlessly actualising my mails and instagram waiting for the drop
You
Okay that sounds ominous, I hit enter on accident.
You'll also get a ping here!:)
I wish there was more fanart of the characters in this game
Lots of art to see in #🎨|fan-creations !
🎉
was there a reason for d. eilander to kill dale's parents??
I've been trying to figure out what his problem was with dale 😭😭
was it because he knew that dale was one day going to take over jakob's position as mr owl?????
He talks about in the letter he leaves after killin them
I know it had something to do with his past life and stuff
Something about balance I dont remember
he did that to make dale go to rusty lake himself or??
We dont know :)
I think he needed the pistol to balance the substances and to resurrect or something
But corrupted souls do show agressive behaviour
so does that mean we get to play as david someday
rusty lake in a nutshell
nobody knows....
I actually liked caroline eilander
and also Elizabeth
One thing we know is what to do 😉
and that is to solve the puzzles
it took me a day to finish paradox because I got stuck on the chess part
you always expect something more from a puzzle with a simple solution
😭
T O D A Y
yes!
or just wait on a ping here!:)
nahh I got to be first
You can't be, people have already played during testing;)
It's alright, you can still be the first #1 bald fan to play it.
Well- I- Uh.
Let us all look forward to the Rusty Lake Untold release and pray there's a memory extractor like in the Cave (and BKM).
YIPPIE
Idk who to play it with tho
because Rusty lake it such a dear thing in my heart
Don't worry, we will have the server set up similar to how we did it for The Past Within
You may even make some new friends when looking for play partners 😄
YIPPIE
maybe I could do it alone
(My dad as gm)
I don’t know if I have the skill tho…
I'm sure you'll have a good time either way 🙂
enjoy the underground:)
if there isn’t a corrupted soul jump scare I’m ripping up the cards

I'm stuck at the puzzle 587. What is the connections between the lines and the number?
I need to take some sugar, help my brain to think.
No, let me try it with my brain first. Don't surrender so far..LOL
Will there be achivments
It's not a videogame, so no.
aww man
Well not right now.
I used the Blue Cube
Was that a Steven universe reference? 😭
🤫
I knew it
I finally found somewhere
I searched up for Rusty Lake FNF Mod
And there is only one 😭😭
With no gameplay video
I'm so excited for Untold to come out! I'm eagerly awaiting the ping (Biting on the bars of my enclosure)
wow someone rlly made one then
but the fact it does not have a gameplay video... bruh
Yeah 😭
It's not released yet right??
correct
Just tell me one thing, will it come out within next 6 hours??
definitely the next 7 or so
Okay then I'll wait. I took a day off for this ✨✨
haha o dear, I hope we won't disappoint
From my nearly 10 years of experience with Rusty Lake, you won't haha
We makin a dinner to die for 🗣🗣
1 hour (approx.) left till release
the first people are getting access as we speak
What?
(see #📝|rl-untold )
i didn't recieve any email
it'll take a while, they're slowly going out!
Cool, we already have vc for playing the game in the server!
Omg it's out!!!
We sure do! And if people are looking for a play group, they can make a thread in #1264933398028488785
?
how about now @toxic cosmos ?
👍

(Also, a little talk here isn't that bad of course, but quick reminder we do have the #📝|rl-untold channel)
Absolute hype 
Currently reading all the posts and planning on writing up a post.
It is my birthday 🥳
happy birthday!
Heppy Cake day!
I hope not! 
Happy birthday anyways :)
dont forget that dale is canonically suffering from like 4 different mental conditions + is an alcoholic
ok no now that i look at the gif list
this ones the best
i think all ive said was a lil uncalled for
so uhh
as you were, soldiers
I really want rusty lake to create a new single player game as soon as possible 😣
Don't have friends who'll understand the rusty lake lore😆
Rusty Lake 2
With the release of the Lab campaign
Now we have the 4th version of the Lab structure
I have read the guide
But I still have to wait until saturday to play with my friends
As a gm
Heyya!!
Hello
I need a channel where I can just spill out about how much I need to live in the Rusty lake universe
This one works just fine.
Or #🤔|theories.
i can explain if youd like
but in other nes
its my birthday, and my friend just steam gifted me like literally all of the rl games
Cool! Enjoy them:)
playing white door, love it!
I am so jealous rn I can’t even explain but I’m happy for you
:D
Thank youu, Im playing white door for the first time, very good!
helloo
Does anyone know how are the telephone voices in games are created? Are they pronounced backwards and play reversed? I'm trying to make a immersive sound effect for rl-untold.
Voice like in Cube Escape: Seasons, ||All that you touch, you change. in the phone||
Yes I think so
Who let that dog out? 
Happy thursday <@&1140536225703403590> ! On this day in the history of The Lake James Vanderboom dies. but that's not why we're here. We're actually here because **on this day in the history of The Lake the dog becomes Immortal!! **While testing the elixir both James and his dog take a sip, James dies in the process and the dog suddenly stops aging.
What do you think the dog did to entertain itself? How did it end up in The Cave? But more importantly: What de dog doing? we'd love to hear from you, be sure to share your thoughts:)
Please read the #🤔|how-to-play channel
thank youu
I think they are in fact reversed voice lines yeah
Honestly, the
raises so many questions. I love it
Isn't that the breed of dog that have difficulties to breathe? His life must be a nightmare XD
what de dog doin real 
I forgor we had a dog emote
Imagine if he'd been turned into a humanoid and picked a fight with his previous owners because HOW DARE YOU SUPPORT BAD BREEDING PRACTICES
okay wait so the new game the lab its not an app i download
Correct
No, it's a table top role playing game
oh okay
Very true, we don't care about James dying, we're here to celebrate the dog
1000%
The dog has ascended into godhood and is traveling the galaxies, it is praised amongst other dimensions as their ruler, cosmic dog!
/hj
I wonder if he can turn into a humanoid animal like Harvey
I love how we all agree, the dog is more important than James in this scenario
Okay can someone remind me in a year to be nice to James, when we celebrate this again?
the dogs always more important
no, always doge
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOG! The dog is that character that is secondary, but without it, the series would not be the same. It would be fun to think of the dog to know every secret of the lake, while we and the characters struggle to discover them! Again, happy birthday dog!
Who let the dogs out woof woof woof
James won't be mad that he's not celebrated, he's dead. The doge on the other hand will always be here
Happy Immortal Dog Day!
i remember playing The Roots for the first time, and being so confused with the whole situation when James and the dog both drink the elixir, i didn't know much of the lore then, but I played The Cave before it so it got me real confused 
How old is the dog?
That's all I care about
Well we know when that level happened
just count 
and then give or take a few years I guess?
valid point
Let me find that really good timeline someone made of events
happy immortality day to THE best rusty lake character 🙏
Wait I think that’s on the wiki
Since the dog stopped aging i imagined it stayed at the lake 'protecting' the Vanderboom house; evne after it was left empty [since everyone either passed away or left] he still lives in the now empty Vanderboom house that's stuck in time [Aldous and the hotel staff check on him though].
He spends his free time hunting for food and just idling about the lake [maybe he greets any lost wanderes to 'safety'] uh unrelated but i headcanon his name is Maxiums.
I will stop yapping now
Im glad he gets to laze around the Lake, that sounds nice
Okay so, 1870, if we’re going by the Real World time, then that’s about 154 years, and if we knew the Dog’s age, we would be able to extract that and get the Dog’s actual age
I’m gonna assume the Dog is about… maybe close to 80 years? Maybe more, maybe less
The dogs back story before becoming immortal should be in one of the games
id like to think that the dog probably plays poker, like the famous painting
hahaha that'd be something
I cannot believe I willingly did math for Rusty Lake
Oh that would be great
he probably spends eternity the same as all dogs.. staring at people like they have something he wants until they give it to him and occasionally digging holes
also adding ontop of my previous message
I imagined he visits James' grave sometimes and brings him the meals he has caught in hopes that James will pet him [again]
Cult of the Lamb: Rusty Lake Edition

I think the dog was entertained playing with stick/ball something or running around
maybe mr.owl bring the dog somewhere (maybe hotel) at the end of the cave
the dog is enjoying his life by watching what happened from the centuries to another centuries
I do like the idea of the dog just sorta seeing time pass
The dog becomes the all see all knowing character who in a million years will reveal all the secrets of the lake
Even Mr owl won't last forever but the dog? He stays, he lives.
When all that is left of rusty lake is a few cubes and abandoned places, he will be there, he shall rebuild the lake and enlighten he who is fated to come across this place
The day of the lake will come again, but this time, it's a dog
Hahah wouldnt that be something
The future of the lake is in his hands. 
Crazy idea...
We know how Aldous was able to transform into Mr. Crow after drinking the elixer. What if the dog got sortlike abilities and it is able to tranform into a human?
Worse idea, what if it is a human we know?
dog got that dawg in it
the dog jsut doesnt want to actually
"What de dog doing?" 😭😭
Dog reversed is God...COINCIDENCE?
Unlike people that played in the order or release, I played all Cube Escape games first. So for me, it was just a random dog in a Cave that I feed with a human arm and used its poop to make a random liquid 💀💀
After playin Hotel, I bought Roots :) Didnt knew what to expect tho.. But when I saw that baby dog, I was like "Oh my God, it is you again! Hello littel buddy!" And then, after James dies and the Dog not, my mind still didnt noticed what that meant 😭 I only realized later after playin the Cube Escape Collection that the Dog was there cuz he drank the Elixir so it would make sense for its dna to have some kind of Elixir remains 😭😭😭
that's really funny, actually!
the dog probably will outlive mr owl youre right.. because he hasnt made any enemies
if its possible for one immortal to outlive another that is.. I reckon rose could get rid of one if she wanted she is pretty savvy
except she doesnt seem to have any morals that would incite her to do so
i would not go around with a butterfly on my nose with albert around
🦋 🐕
i love u immortal dog
we all do! seemingly!
damy I'm curious do you have a favorite rusty lake game
I flipflop a lot
Its usually the latest we've released bc im a huge fan of all the work we've put into smaller details but the Samsara Room remake in particular is very close to my heart too
"what de dog doing?" 😭 I love Doggo, loved the Cave puzzles ( also close to my heart since the Cave is one of the first rl games I've played ) and it's so cute! I like to think that it's always sitting somewhere, while all the games' chronological lines continue it's always there, sitting alone, never dying, kinda dark but eh. as for james I kinda don't care anyways Live Love Rusty Lake am I right
Live, laugh, love Rusty Lake🫶🏻🫶🏻
That dog is just chilling. It doesn’t what’s going on or what’s happening. It’s just. There and we love it for that
We do love it for that
best character. we need a full game about him
Honestly I dont disagree
I wonder how the name could be
TvT eee i cant believe this game has a fandom
ive been playing since all the cube escape stuff was available in flash
I am his ememy
I stumbled upon the cube escape collection once and thought, "wow this company's pretty dope for stashing all their games into one app"
it ended up being more than that. the dog was my light in the cave 🥹
While James' death was tragic I'm glad the doggo lived
Real!!
Hhaha so much more! but im very happy with the collection too.
Me too! thanks for your ongoing support
the lore reveal gave me a whiplash when I found there was lore
Damy are you a part of the rusty lake team?
Yes I am!
anything I can help with?
No, you just know so much about the game and the group so I was curious
hahaha I suppose!
hi any one here
bruh i just thought of some neat lyrics and ideas for my next rl fansong.
i don't even have an instrumental to put it to lmao
Committing tax fraud
Ah fair
Being an icon is what it's doing tbh
What the dog doing
i wonder how the Rusty lake series would look like if it was set on 2000's or recent years
Real
Pretty sure the dog escaped the Vanderboom house And go inside the cave.
Maybe the game where we play as the dog will show us his way to the Cave..
The Lake is quiet.
Neither the croak of the frog
Nor the chirp of the cricket
Disturbs the pristine silence that blankets the Lake.
The Lake is quiet.
Harvey plush is so close yet so far….a little over a week left!
You wake up in the middle of the night. Something seems off. A loud noise disturbs you. But when checking out through your window, you realize there's nothing going on and eveything seems to be in place. You instantly feel terrified. Because you know: Something is off. But that something is nothing.. Just as the loud noise was, in reality, the sound of the silence. The Lake is quiet, and that's not ok.
Any 3 or 4 player games like ' the past within '????
Hey guys! I’ve played most of the rusty lake games but can only piece together parts of the lore. Any good videos on YouTube I should watch to learn more about the story?
@cosmic canyon Most of videos on Youtube will only explain the lore chronologically, which contains spoilers for Rusty Lake Paradise, Roots and Hotel
Have you already played them?
You should check the newest game “the lab” if you haven’t already👍
Where ?
Thnx
No problem!
Damy is a real person 😭
@haughty light
What..
I don’t get what you are saying?
You mean, you have been banned?
You you were, must have been for a reason
Well, I am not a moderator, so I cant help you in any way
⬆️ ➡️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️
Thank you for the ping
What happened over here?
SHRIMP GAMES‼️
Hello
I recommend playing them before watching the videos, they’re very fun to play blind
Oh fuck ye
Watching videos ruins all the fun
I didn't even watch the steam shit so I did not understand that the person in the past looks around while I was staring at a big while square
Lol
“I’m not gonna watch a video I’m not gonn—“
-me, ten seconds before looking up paradox play through to learn how to turn the lights on
Imagine if Run Harvey got an update..
bahaha what would we even add
A new station 🗣🗣
I guess we lab and BKM arent in the runner
Mmmm yeah
Oh oh
When we reach the lab
We find abother cubical device
So we enter on Run Run Harvey Run Run
eventually youll just be a single green pixel
Deeper into the Lake
Hey, Rusty lake producers, do you need help with translation your new tabletop game?
we have translators, but thank you for your offer.
Glad you answered me, have a nice day! I'm going to read rules for gm, want to spend time nicely with my friends.
'course, I hope you and your friends will have fun
after playing we'd love to hear your feedback in #🗨|the-lab-feedback:)
For sure!
Best gif ever made
When I searched up yesterday for Corrupted Souls in gifs
There was no Rusty Lake
But now
We got two bois 🗣🗣
thank u to whoever uploaded those!
It was me :)
I had a sneaking suspicion lol
Gonna upload some for Underground Blossom
If you search for “Rusty Lake” in the gifs tab in discord there is also plenty of them
Mostly about Elizabeth
Guess someone really likes her
Dale gifs: 3
Laura gifs: 4-6
😭
Paradise gifs: ♾️
Ok nothing
@empty heart You sure?
omg imagine if we got season game passes that add new characters to unlock 😭 Rusty Lake : the EA microstransactions update
Mr Owl needs some money
he also needs a soul
Dale, before becomin the new ruler of the Lake
You need the Rusty Lake Battlepass
For only $19,72
This server disappeared from my list for a split second and I gotta admit i panicked for a moment
Discord moment i'd say
Oh definitely, but pretty fitting. Look away and the lake vanishes XD
That is a quantum lake
It was like 2AM, almost 3
But here I am imagining about Dale saying "Jesse, we need to cook." Instead of sleeping
Which ones you havent played?
Even better :)
All the ones I haven’t played yet are bought now
Yippee
:D
If you want an order, I recommend playing
Hotel -> Roots -> Paradise -> Paradox Chapter 2
And also The White Door -> Past Within -> Underground Blossom
Oh!
Dont forget The White Door

Be patient with Hotel. It's annoying to 100%.
Come back for trauma relief after you experience "The Jar Incident."
Paradise is just fun.
The jar
GETITOUTOFMYHEAD!!!
What is the jar incident 
You'll understand.
Unless you're like, 12. Then probably save Roots for later.
The most simple and diabolical puzzle ever made by human hands
AHHHHHH!
HANDS!!!
Ain’t discord like 13+
Ah, yeah, that's true.
Point being, the Jar Incident is not family friendly.
Oh no it’s just like all the other jar incidents D:
Many died during the jar scene
Now I’m scared
I’m gonna go in with Will Wood, my hopes and dreams, and a bunch of terror
Best of luck to you, Soldier.
The Lore you will learn is deep and meaningful.
The cost is great.
Be strong.
Random fact, but 3 years ago there was an event on one of my servers and the theme was time travel
Our time machine was broken and we needed pieces, collecting them each year, starting from 1930
When we reached 1939, I stole Dale's furnace
Ah, yes.
YOINK!
This is a certified Dale Trauma moment.
Imagine your parents dying as you’re left to try and cope with the fact you watched them get killed and then a time traveler walks through the door, unhooks your furnace and leaves
Hotel has finished downloading
I don’t feel like eating my steak anymore after fishing out boar poop
Oooo, that's rough.
Addiction symbolism goes hard.
NOOOOOO MR RABBIT’S MAGIC
I may be broke now but it was worth it 
birthday made me check my cake for needles
yeah for some reason
You can try our new tabletop experience, if you'd like
check out #🤔|how-to-play !
is that the lab?
Yes
ooooo
does anyone have a favourite game from the cube escape series?
mhm in the cube escape series? it'll either be paradox or theatre for me.
Hi guys!!
oh theatre is one of my favourites too!!

I think right now my fav is roots, I love the soundtrack 🥰🥰
Ur pfp is hella cool, is it a rusty lake persona of urself????
omg I need to buy all of the paid games when I'm older. I really adore the premise of hotel I've been itching to play it for so long
It's me, I work for Rusty Lake hence the style.
they're definitely worth your time, I hope you'll get around to them:)
theatre, seasons, and birthday are my top 3 free rl games. I also adore arles bc im an art history nerd and van gogh slays
will do in the future ❤❤
DEFINITLY!! I'm lucky enough to have been able to play all of them, my favorites changes from time to time so that's why I said that rn my fav would be roots
Oh alr!! That's so cool!!
Nice! is that the one with the eilander family? I've been trying to keep up with the lore without spoiling gameplay for myself too much..
Eilander is Paradise, roots is Vanderboom!!
ok got it thanks !!
Roots happens in a house but paradise is the one that happens in a forest on an island kinda :))
also p sure this means something but
vanderboom- from the tree
vandermeer- from the lake
then
eilander- islander? from the island?
ohhhh right yeah I mixed up the two lol well I'll see when I play them
OOOOH I had never even thought of that :0 I wouldn't be surprised If it did lol
because when you said island something clicked @rapid pulsar
Ofc!!
it's so cool these little easter eggs :))
LOL glad I could help somehow!!
Ikrr I feel like I'm always finding out smth new about this game even though I've known it for years, it never gets tiring
right the lore is so meticulously crafted I love it hhdhdhhfh I rmb obsessing over the paradox real person trailer for days
It would have to be Paradox for me
very valid
also as a classical musician i applaud the use of satie's gnosienne (1 I think?) in seasons it's great
Omgg yes absolutely!!
Dale's actor ate
It's "Gymnopedie No. 3" I'm pretty sure
YES THIS
I'm tweaking mb 💀
I remember at first I didn't even catch on that there was an actual short film I was just like "oh that's cool" BUT THEY ACTUALLY FILMED A WHOLE THING???
gnossiennes gymnopedies I get them mixed up so much 😔
it looked so good... omg
I have no idea what u guys r talking about 😦 I've only ever played the piano once for 6mounths when I was like, 11 I think
Ikr!??!?
I don't play the piano but I like satie's music, basically his music was used as the soundtrack for I think errrr summer in seasons (again haven't replayed in months that's why I forgot the piece name)
Oooh alr gotcha, what was the music? Was it like, in the background? Cuz I've always wondered also where Harvey's music came from
It was the background song
yeah the bg music,
Oooh alr alr
listened again and yeah it's gymno 3
my first game was samsara room and I think I played it 3 years ago
found it on a games blog
I just looked it up, it says the one they used for Harvey's Song is part of a song called "Overture to Egmont Op. 84"
I think it was my first too!
I think I judt came across it on playstore, decided to give it a try and got obessesed
I see, thx for the info, much appreciated!! :0
ohhh I found it on bart bonte's game blog and William (is that his name sorry) fell out of the clock and scared me 💀
but then I was like yeah this is my type of point and click and I do love mystery horror so
WAITTTT IVE NEVER FOUND SOMEONE WHO KNOWS HIM LOL THATS SICK
just finished purple was so fun
I miss his flash escape games like loose the moose
YEA!! I think it was the first time I came across a game lime this, I was originally looking for basic puzzle games
ME TOO HAHAHAHA
I don't remember ever trying the purple one omg :0 ill check it out
omg same and then I really liked his style of puzzle making like it was perfect... then he introduced me to rl and things became even better
And the music in the red one is peak to me
I think purples new
I rlly love the bg to song for a bird
Maybe playstore recommended rusty lake to me because I was playing sm of his games :0
Im Absolutely gonna be playing it today
Is that another game from him?
yeah it's like word puzzles you have to form a word based on hints
WAIT I JUST CHECKED I also have not played orange and pink I'm p sure???
Ooh ok! Sounds interesting, I'll look at it too
yeah the primary colours are the old ones he's started making secondary colours

IF rusty lake is done what will happen then? a new series but same kind of game? with puzzles and lore?
Only time can tell
rusty lake can't be done, there's no time therefore there's no end
The year is 3672..
Mr. Owl: Aldous, we need to find the elixir..
Mr. Crow: 💀
Mr. Owl: Oh. I forgot. You passed away 1700 years ago..
Dale: I escaped the Cube
didn't we play as the crow once?
what about corrupted soul?
and in blossom?
They are still on their dephts of the Lake party
i fr thoguht i saw the crow's shadow
In Underground Blossom, we play as someone else..
Gotta be another birb
murder parrot
The spoilers 😭
... oh right.
Wazzup🤪
Hi, Do you guys know why I didn't get download link after I sign up Rusty Lake Untold
You’ll get it in the e-mail. Make sure to check the spam just and case, but it might require some time too(
I got the conform email and click the link, But I didn't got the second one. It's also not in the junk mail
omg my harvey plush has been shipped ^_^ very excited i will let u guys know when he arrives
Every day on this server I hear people complaining about not being able to send a gif of "Shut up, Johnny!" from the super secret scene in Underground Blossom, School Street
Say no more
Idk why I did this one 😭
Also, it was very weird that there was no gif of the trumpet guy
So I made one of him too
I was playing roots and on that one story (I forgot the name) I was thinking “damn this kid got some bad aim” until I realized I was supposed to aim
That was a pretty Bee & Butterfly moment
RRROBEEERTTTTTTTT!!!!!

I'm playing Rusty lake roots. I solved the puzzle in the episode called Checkmate. Albert's brain went up in the air, but I forgot to pick it up. When I went back to get it, there was no brain. Frank was sitting invisibly. And I can't move the knight again because there are x's all over the chessboard. I'm playing on mobile. There is no option to restart the chapter. I don't want to play the game all over again because it's almost over.
The game allows you to reset one level! if you press "reset" it asks you if you want to reset all your progress, or just one level
Thanks
Good morning only for those who havent corrupted their souls
me
*corrupts you *

me when someone catches me tweaking
just completed the game run with my homeboi, marvelous job
Thank you for the kind words!
Can we all agree that Rusty Lake's games are literally 🔛🔝🥹🙏🏼
if she doesn’t fw rusty lake i don’t fw her 🖐️
Need someone to play the co-op with
Then she's not a baddie, I regret to inform.
for my ub fansong should i have the verses be on the actual stations or just the themes in general?
That's a tough question, I'd almost say combine the two lol
lol
maybe have the chorus be the themes but the verses be the stations?
That sounds cool!
Yeag! Please look forward to it:)
We got Rusty Lake Subway Surfers before GTA 6
Paint me a picture 🌻
A new week, a new <@&1140536225703403590> ! On this day in the history of The Lake Vincent van Gogh dies. It is believed that Vincent shot himself with a revolver on the 27th of July and he would succumb to that injury 2 days later. He was only 37 years old.
To celebrate his life, his legacy, and his work I’d like you all to step into the footsteps of the famous artist and recreate your favourite van Gogh piece, but try to do it within 5 minutes. My favourite recreation will win a steam key for the Cube Escape Collection, I'll pick a winner ~24 hours from now
Why it look like that
Because it's art
Listen okay
Arles mentioned 🗣🗣🗣
Nice
It's fine damy you did great
I also figured If I asked others to do art that quickly I should do it myself too
It looks cool
10/10 would frame it
Prints up soon in our merch shop!
Cool contest idea!
Wat how
Time travel
No
True i hope yall have some good clocks
You get 5 minutes to create a masterpiece
What a great moment to have finished the Bedroom in Arles puzzle (it's been collecting dust since Christmas) 
No, it’s a great moment to do some really fun 5 mins art
And replaying Arles after :D
I meant for the anniversary, I'm obviously not going to use the puzzle as an entry 
Yes feel free to enter even if you don't need the steam key
But good luck with the puzzle too! It sounds awesome
I'd love to see everyones 5 minute crafts!
Ok i am not good at art but I did a 5 minute drawing, do I just send it in this chat?
yes
Yippe!! Here's my 5 min drawing of my fav van gogh painting (sunflowers)
cool!
Yyyeeeey lets goo!
DAMN that's crazy good
Tbh sunflowers was the first thing I thought about when I learned about the contest :D
I will swear by starry night forever
There’re just too many good works of Gogh
thank you!! painting is really not my strong suit
I do love starry night sky but I have a soft spot for sunflowers in general
I mean that's very fair
i feel silly i might do this five minute challenge for the funsies
Please do!

Here's mine in 5 minutes :D
LMAO i've truly been outdone, thanks Rainy!
Np 😭 I literally focused on the swirlies more than the rest of the composition LMAO
the second i started this i panicked because i forgot what rhe starry night looked like
yayy!!! np

damn i already purchased the game, might as well do it for fun.
It probably doesn't count as a recreation but here's mine
is that a recreation of the cube escape room?
that's what I was thinking! thank you either way
Nah I just mashed a few of my favorites together
But yeah that was the game
some proportions are screwed but i got the gist of it.
it's great! thank you:)
huh pretty good 😅
So tranquil! thank you:)
okay but this is just the painting?? thank you!!
that is soo cool wth.
in 5 minutes at most as well?
No lol I did that in 25
Currently making the 5 min version
damn still cool to do it in 25 minutes
Behold....
4 minute version...
Poor man has had a bad day
This was pretty fun after not having opened my drawing app in 6 months 💀

This gotta win
Ishall be the judge of that! (yknow, literally)
Teach me your ways
Damy, you like the Starry night, and that is damn beautiful 
jk jk
I trust you'll be fair
I think i'm going to have a difficult time picking
maybe ill just ask one of the mods to pick for me...
ok this was a bit more than 30 seconds but that was a nice challenge
I'll try an actual 5 minutes one now...
hahah cool, thank you!
When I tell you I ran do to this for fun I mean it because I love his Café Terrance at night painting
Also why not add a sneaky little corrupted soul? They’re so silly 
Wowww
Imagine not spending enough time to draw the sky on a Van Gogh painting couldn't be me
I;d buy that tbh it’d fit the vide of my room
Thank you Both! They're great

It's okay you can still share
He's great! Thanks!

Just a silly little idea I had honestly! Thanks
can I do other one (not as an entry)?
Haha sure
Please do
I drew the bed too small
For a tiny little cube
Heyyy
I don't have access to theory channel
But I believe that I might have found the lore of the rusty lake series...
You should be able to just go there if you click here; #🤔|theories
But anyway, I wish to make a fan art, but I don't know if I do in 3d or 2d...
Thanks!
As for your fanart; follow your heart!
Thanks...
Hi
Hey there!
I tried 😭
That's cute! is tempo your time?
Yes
hahaha cool!
Thats actually my 2nd attempt
I used the original below on the first attempt, but it felt like cheating/tracing
I do think free handing it is more fun at least
Yeah
rusty rotted me so much I wanted to click on the head to get a key 😭
Great job everyone it's so crunchy art !!
Idk if this should be in theories but ||do I not pay attention enough or is there a confirmed reason of death for Laura. Was it a murder by someone’s corrupted soul or her self|| also mods if this should go in theories pls tell me so I can c&p before deleting it
||herself||
Ty!
whys this chat dead when i wanna be social 😔
Hey
wow 5 minutes really flies by lol, well here's my speedpaint of wheatfield with crows since that is my favorite van Gogh piece
🗣️ Let us take you on a journey of pen and paper… 🚪 Step into the room with a bookcase and solve the puzzle within 🧩
The books… the box… what does it all mean? 🔍
Stay tuned for our upcoming Rusty Lake Pen and Paper release coming soon! 🤩
In the meantime, we recommend a trip to the new secret station in #UndergroundBlossom! 🎟️ 👀
Rose office before she got money to buy a computer
I wonder what RL Untold official secrets would look like
Like the secret achievements
Damn, u deserve an Oscar
4 more hours in case anyone wants to get a 5 minute van gogh in btw!
“One of us is not like the others”
blocks are just 2d cubes anyway
This implies block blast could hypothetically exist in the Rusty lake universe
It's obviously samsara room
It should be cube escape: blast
Hello!
Hi!
People, which colour would you say Laura paints her fingernails? Or does she paint them at all? 👀
this icon is a spy!
Tf2!!!1!1!1!
Yes. The Past Within have very different gameplay from others ||
||
I think pink or sky color with pink flower (I don't know it is good or not)
Hello! Can anyone explain the purpose of ||golden cubes|| ? And on which games we see ||the golden cubes|| ?
Golden cubes represent the future, I think. they appear in The Cave and The Past Within
they also appear in paradox chapter 2 ||secret ending||
Oh right, yes
Thanks everybody!!

Hello everyone!
congrats @solemn crescent !!! 
CONGRATS!!1 :]]
Hey there! 
How are you?
Good! What about you?
yo.
I’m going to be Game Master for Untold to a group of people who have never played a Rusty Lake game before. I have also never GMed a game before. This’ll be fun
I had a dream where albert vanderboom himself beat the shit out of me for knowing to much but then he let me explain and i kinda tore his world in half by telling him his life story is in a video game then he killed me
I've been playing to much rusty lake games
oh my god what is even going on 😭
lmao
LMFOA WHAT 😭
i had a dream a new rusty lake game came out and i was in it and there was a bunch of symbolism with the butterflies and the “this choice will have consequences” thing and then i was in a lake and it was really windy and then a bunch of blue flower pedals and cherry blossom blew past me and i fell into the water and it told me to balance the substance of specifically MY past lives and i don’t think i’ve ever been the same since
We have not yet developed a method of turning players' brains into receptors for our projects directly
Stay tuned tho, who knows! 
bro you put my brain INTO the game 😭
The Lake is getting too real..
Best kept memory is getting more powerful…
Sorry if this has been asked before, I was busy the past few months and wasn't keeping up with the news, what's Untold? A new game? Or a new chapter of an existing game? Or an ARG? I also saw people saying it needs mutli players, is that true or is it optional?
It's a tabletop pen and paper adventure, it's a roleplaying game
I suggest checking out #🤔|how-to-play
Oh I see! And it links to the overall plot, right?
that's for you to figure out:)
Lmao, I'll try my best
Hey
UB patch "You can now find the telephone numbers for the secret levels after completing the achievements" where though?
I've already done all the secrets and got all achievements but I don't see the numbers written in game or steam.. maybe I misunderstood what this means?
|| two business cards get added to the suitcase at the start of the game ||
oohh
||hmm mine only has the same letter as before||
sorry ill go to ub channels

My Harvey plushie has arrived the moment I am not home 
Could I be even more unlucky today?
O no! D;
The best part is I won't be home in an hour
Oh nooo :( do you know if someone can pick it up for you? like a family member or if you live with someone?
My brother has (he's threatened he's gonna open it)
And smash it lmao
Detective Vandermeer is on the case! 
Happy Wednesday <@&1140536225703403590> !
On this day in the history of The Lake 9 years ago Cube Escape: Case 23 was released! Case 23 was the 5th entry into the Cube Escape franchise and introduced the fan favourite and dearly beloved detective Dale Vandermeer. In the game you play as Dale investigating the mysterious Death of a woman. Working his way through burning paintings, drinking coffee and a chapel full of puzzles Dale eventually finds himself well and truly entangled with The Lake.
What’s your favourite puzzle in Case 23? Why did Dale become a detective? What were cases 1 - 22? We’d love to hear your thoughts, so be sure to share them!
To celebrate The Lake has given me another steam key to the Cube Escape Collection to give away. To enter just answer one of the questions mentioned above (or one of your own devising) and include “#RLM” in your message. I’ll pick a winner in ~24 hours from now.
ahem, sorry to just barge in here
Would love to see some pictures if you get to the plush @spark sable
Got scared for a second lmao
(no pressure though)
I'll send some when I get home
I just can't leave now 🥲
Anyway to answer my own questions; I think my favourite puzzle in Case 23 is probably the doll one in chapter 1
It's fanmade! It's cool to have a fan made puzzle in one of the games:)
Fr fr, I LOVE those dolls
Honestly you guys? I never finished case 23
The timed puzzle were to overwhelming for me
Gotta leave now-
Unpopular opinion but I'd like more timed segments in the game
(ideally with a toggle to turn it off after a few fails)
The timed puzzles make me kinda panic
Even though it would scare me silly I agree. It adds to the tension
aa aaaaaaaa aaaaa
I dont believe this.
I spent way too long on that the first time around lol
No fr, I enjoy this silly puzzle, that sometimes I need to go play it again
anyway guys we're looking for a new mod-
i still spend way too long on it on my replays;-;
I jest, I jest
The thing is I do really like the chapel overall, it's a very fun bout of minigame puzzles
Happy Birthday Dale!
My favorite puzzle in case 23 was in the 2nd chapter the part when u need to use the marker to find the channel! It was pretty hard, but also pretty fun!
I think he became a detective because of what happened in Birthday, and wanted to know why.
Probably the other cases were him trying to understand why he was having dreams with rabbits with guns, idk lol
I think Dale is a pretty good character, (thats one of the reasons he is one of my favorites lol) and has a great story, and Case 23 was a great way to introduce him!
#RLM
Personally I think Dale became a detective because of the murder of his family. That had to have left a deep impression of him as a young boy, and I doubt the killer was ever originally found so that would also stoke the "get the justice and closure for others I never got"
#RLM
i did not expect anyone to say this 
demote fr
O yeah honestly the marker puzzle is great!
😭
aw I like case 23, it felt distinct from the other ones for its noir feel. the timed segment scared me at first ( it especially felt a lot more gory than the rest of the games though I played paradise after and it was even worse lol
) then it became fun ! I liked the fire puzzle and everything else, wondeful game. my favourite puzzle would probably be the map one, it was so fun to overlay the map and the marker and get it right ! Dale probably became a detective because it's a job you can hunt down killers and perhaps he wanted revenge, or maybe he liked the word detective lol. cases 1-22 were probably all of the lost socks in the drawer ( how do they keep disappearing ? mystery )
#RLM
That's how I lose my position - for liking sliding puzzle /j
Yeah this wouldn't surprise me!
all that pool water has gone to your head
my fav puzzle is probably the crow in the sink one, i like the randomness of it, it feels very RL in a way
quintessential RL for sure, I'd say.
My favorite puzzle is probably the one where you burn things, the one where you connect the things using the marker or the timed one
no one saw those two edits.
If we all liked the same puzzles that would get boring quickly. Variety is good!
I think burning things generally is a lot of fun
uh, Damy, I forgot to add the hastag to the original msg lol, can i edit it?
arson is surprinsigly a Rusty Lake reoccurring theme
😄
I think one of my favourite bits might be feeding the fish because it gives monty python vibes when the finger comes out especially
good !
Also I was elsewhere in Discord when the announcement was shared so all I saw at the top of my phone screen was a giant "Detective Vande" 😂😂😂😂
New character reveal
Dale's sidekick
I can see that
that sounds like the name of a painting that van gogh would paint
and we've got the murderous rabbit too
The real question is, what van are they next to? Or is the van next to them...
my initial idea for the key giveaway was asking people to come up with a case report for a case between 1 - 22
but that felt a bit too abstract
Oooooooooh
I liked the communication using fire signals to the boatman (will it come back?
), who then it revealed the enlighteneds for the first time ever.
thank god, because i have no imagination lol
knock knock, it's rusty lake paradise
But Paradise was released later!
yes meaning it came back! hahha
but it's cool, I think some more alternative communication would be fun in the games, many more we could borrow from 
I can’t remember the last time I was this early for a Memory of the Lake
its fun, because in timeline, paradise is before case 23, but paradise was released after case 23

Uh-oh, i meant the old signal the boatman used to give us, sorry!
Honestly, I wanna play the Rusty Lake games in chronological order one day
Yes thank you Cubical Device
LOL hell yeah
Case no: 8
Reporting Officer: Detective Van De
Incident:
A box was reported abandoned on the side of the highway. The caller mentioned sounds of loud squawking within. Upon arrival at the scene the box was found open with a strange assortment of items within, including a human finger. Several feathers that appear to be from a grey bird were found within and without the box. Footsteps originating from next to the box lead away into the nearby wood, where they end abruptly.
Happy anniversary dale, probably my favorite character in the series and case 23 was a great introduction for him
Dale is great!
A poor schmuck getting pulled into a weird family's mess
noooo
Is it bad? 🤣
haha it's great, thanks for sharing

My favorite puzzle has always been the bookshelf puzzle for some reason, it feels very satisfying in a way
And I do believe that the events of cube escape birthday was what led him to become a detective!!1 I like to imagine that his prior cases had some part of it that is drawn to the lake in some way.
#RLM
This was supposed to reply to the text help me..
it's fine, as long as you include the #rlm its all good!
I'd offer myself to the lake 
Btw I'm running to get home
That plushie isn't gonna escape
I don't know which is my favorite puzzle in Case 23 (because every puzzle is so good), but I think I can't forget chapter 4 in Case 23
I think Dale became a detective because he wants to solve mestrious cases himself
the timed section will definitely leave an impression, that's for sure.
I think one of the case is searching the vanished person from the lake (maybe case 22)
"deer-ly" beloved lol
Honestly my favorite part was the timed section, I really liked how creepy it was. I also liked the part in the first chapter where you looked for answers to the crossword puzzle in the newspaper
#RLM
text bomb
case 1: dale's introductory case, being that of a gas station robber at large.
case 2: the curious case of the dog, which has been sighted for 10 years with no visible aging
case 3: someone stole dale's coffee, it warranted a case file because the cctv cameras broke that day
case 4: tries to solve the eilander cold case, closed it because "mythical cultist bs".
case 5: investigates the disappearance of his friend harvey, links to case 7
case 6: murder of a dad shopping for milk, by case 1 guy
case 7: investigates the break in of his home during his birthday some odd years ago
case 8: co-worker embezzling donuts
case 9-13: various pet shop thefts, all by a blonde lady and a parrot
case 14: someone stole dale's coffee. again.
case 15: okay who's breaking the cctv cameras of the station?
case 16-19: investigates mass murder of the vanderbooms, closed because case 4
case 20-21: someone managed to steal all the sheep. twice.
case 22: parrot goes missing for one day, blood is seen, but disappears.
Imagine a comic about all of those cases 
hmmm....
i mean i've basically written them all. i just need to draw lol.
*shrugs*
all part of the craft.

Made myself a guide for it no cap
I did the same for Mr Deer's water puzzle some years ago 
My fav puzzle is the typewriter one. Has creepy vibes idk, plus I like cube escape the mill.
#RLM
I mean, I've got a document with the clues/codes for the entire series, it's just I didn't know how to do that one without recording a long video. Ended up using a website that solves sliding puzzles in the fewest turns possible.
Ooohhhh
I also use a sliding block puzzle solver website every time I get to that puzzle, setting it up is actually more fun than the puzzle itself
Fr
its not that difficult tho
Ok, is the full version worth $2.99
Yes
yep
yo, anybody wanna watch me play every game from start to finish in order?
(already played cube escape seasons but ill play it again if you want)
DM me if you are interested
My favorite puzzle in Case 23 is all the puzzles in chapter 3. I believe he become a detective to fix his childhood ever since his ninth birthday. And I’m looking forward for cases 1 through 22. hopefully they’ll be more like this.
Congratulations!!! 
Yaaayyauaya tysm
Enjoy the rest of the games! 
I defo will they're amazing
My room at 3 AM when lm tryna sleep
That's mine during the entirety of Summer
