🩸｜general-chat

[past inlet]

sorry, but like i was saying, its best sometimes ya know let people grovel over the answer

[onyx summit]

Okay fine, I'll just go and write my Cube Escape/Warehouse 13 fan fiction

[maiden phoenix]

open endings are quite decent to develop an entire universe

[onyx summit]

Thus, movie

[maiden phoenix]

The devs havent released anything of Dale after Paradox

be patient

[haughty light]

Have a good write Lynn!

I get you being unhappy with loose ends, I understand that those feelings

[maiden phoenix]

they are focusing on the past now

[past inlet]

you think a movie would leave us with more questions than answers..XD?

[onyx summit]

I'm aware. That's why I'm suggesting that we learn more in a movie.

[haughty light]

Here's to hoping we see more content.

[maiden phoenix]

remember, the past is never dead

[onyx summit]

I'm aware of that too

[onyx summit]

Thanks!

[past inlet]

its Rusty Lake we are talking about, im amazed they haven't pulled a Twin Peaks finale on us /pos

[onyx summit]

I haven't seen Twin Peaks

[onyx summit]

I feel like there was some kind of misunderstanding somewhere in our communication

[maiden phoenix]

I am just trying to make some stupid joke but nvm

[onyx summit]

Oh a lot of jokes go over my head so it's probably my bad

[maiden phoenix]

just dont get too obsessed with Dale

I guess the next game about him is gonna be in 2023

[onyx summit]

He needs a hug

Now I'd also learn to know more about Laura

[haughty light]

We'll likely get a young laura game? At some point

[maiden phoenix]

u know that #🤔｜theories is always an option

you can get many info

not gonna discuss her here because Damy is kinda harsh

because many are logical interpretations

rather than a direct fact

[maiden phoenix]

2022?

[haughty light]

I doubt it? Unless it was developed in tandem with tpw

But jt would be cool

[maiden phoenix]

sad

but I still have time

[past inlet]

source

[haughty light]

Also just as a reference! For general chat; anything that happens in the game and what you think of it is for general

[maiden phoenix]

I think they had many teasers and one is about young Laura

[haughty light]

If that evolves into a deeper discussion switching to theories could b smart

I'm mostly basing my hunch off the cube escape collection esster ehhs

Eggs*

Pretty obvious something's coming right

[past inlet]

stroke?

[maiden phoenix]

lmao

[haughty light]

No, I'm in bed without my glasses lol

[past inlet]

I need to get Damy contact lenses

[maiden phoenix]

cabin warning

👀

[haughty light]

I actually prefer my glasses but thanks!

[past inlet]

it was a one time comment i think its fine.XD

[maiden phoenix]

I know

jk

mimic Damy

[haughty light]

Ye we all good

[maiden phoenix]

but your assumption might be logical

since young Laura has been in The Cave

then Samsara

oops

[past inlet]

fair point lmao

[maiden phoenix]

should I add spoiler tag

fock

[haughty light]

Nah it's fine^

[maiden phoenix]

plus we have Grandpa Albert and Mother Rose for now

maybe next is about mother Rose and daughter Laura

interesting

sudden family vibe

[haughty light]

Oooh ye Rose is a really interesting line in all of this

[onyx summit]

Who's Rose?

[unreal timber]

have you played roots?

[maiden phoenix]

find it out by yourself

[past inlet]

spoilering just incase, but answer below click at ya own risk:
||She is Laura's mother||

[maiden phoenix]

are u sure though

[unreal timber]

quite but also not really

[past inlet]

im like 10% sure but its midnight and im too tired to argue..XD

[maiden phoenix]

||a fusion of the entire family and a magical tree||

[past inlet]

||well yeah but she still technically was a mother or a mother figure||

[onyx summit]

I've only played Cube Escape and Samsara Room

[past inlet]

family isn't always biological ya know

[unreal timber]

but in case the person asking hasnt played roots: highly reccommend if you can, also recommend watching a playthrough if you cant

[onyx summit]

Ohhh

[unreal timber]

roots, hotel and paradise contain 90% of the story

youre missing out on a Lot of plot

[onyx summit]

Oof

[maiden phoenix]

I would say context

[unreal timber]

agree to disagree lol

[maiden phoenix]

since the main storyline is still between Laura and Dale

However, the devs decided to add some spice in the context by releasing TPW

quite interesting

[onyx summit]

If only I had money

[maiden phoenix]

wait for the sales

[unreal timber]

they go for a dollar sometimes

[onyx summit]

Christmas is coming up so I'm hoping for a Steam sale

[unreal timber]

if thats still unaffordable sometimes, there are the playthroughs though : ) not the same, but helps!

[onyx summit]

True

[past inlet]

you could always enter the contests too

they give away stuff for free as prizes

[onyx summit]

I'm planning on entering the sticker contest, which is for the server but it's a starting point

[lost mural]

Quations was unasked

[haughty light]

aye sorry! we obviously can

t guarantee RL sees all the questions

hence why I suggested you also save it for any Q and A's that might be held in the future, improves your chances

[lost mural]

well it is clear. I just thought now in the channel they did not write often and maybe the question would be answered, but so you have to wait

[torn spoke]

Which rusty lake game features Gymnopedie no 1 ?

[dull parcel]

Iirc only gymno 3 appears (on seasons)
At least never seen ppl talking about #1 in rl games

[brave wasp]

Yo

[haughty light]

yo @brave wasp welcome to the server! be sure to go over the #✅｜rules 😄

[grave dove]

Wow

[meager breach]

just found a reference in there is no game wrong dimension

cool that you guys were mentioned

[grave dove]

Whay rly?

What was the reference

[solid bridge]

@grave dove

[tulip hemlock]

@acoustic mantle so in conclusion

i can just play the games with the order in #📚｜resources right?

[onyx summit]

Correct. Also, Samsara Room is free.

[tulip hemlock]

oh actually i played samsara room a LOOONG time ago

[acoustic mantle]

Well, if you are interested, I have an alternative order for you to play

[tulip hemlock]

because i found it randomly on google play

[tulip hemlock]

yes please

[onyx summit]

I too am interested

Though, I'm already done with Cube Escape 😅

[acoustic mantle]

It's based on chronology & references so it feels to me more comprehensive

The Lake
Seasons (refs to Lake)
Harvey's Box (refs to Lake & Seasons)
Case 23 (new story based on the prev one)
The Mill (Case 23 behind the scenes)
Hotel (Deepens freshly revealed characters)
Arles (minor Hotel ref)
Roots (Several origin stories)
Samsara Room (another perspective on Roots ending)
The Past Within !to be discussed! (deepens a Roots character)
Paradise (origin story with strong parallels to the main one)
Paradox (back to the main story, refs to Paradise)
The Cave (behind the scenes of Paradox, refs to Roots)
Birthday (chronology)
Theatre (chronology)
The White Door (refs to Case 23 & Theatre)

[onyx summit]

Just confirmed that all the Rusty Lake games are 50% off on Steam right now for the Autumn sale

Part of me is upset that I bought Paradox only a couple days ago full price

I mean, it's only a dollar and a half of a difference

[tulip hemlock]

what a great time to buy them all now!!

i only have hotel because i got it when it was free

it sat on my library for months until i downloaded it like 5 days ago and here i am

[onyx summit]

Google Play recommended Paradox to me, I started playing it, mentioned it on a Discord server, and a friend of mine who it turns out is a Rusty Lake fan told me about all the others. That was about two weeks ago.

[orchid pelican]

use a cat toy to fish for a fish in the wall

[sterile locust]

Just thought of an animatic of Two Birds where there were two of the baby birds Ms. Pigeon experimented on and they try to escape, but one gets killed while the other gets captured again.

[grave dove]

Ohhhh

[hollow rapids]

Hello, does anyone know if cube escape paradox was the last cube escape game?

are the rest going to be a new series you think?

[haughty light]

I do believe paradox concludes the CE series

But that doesn't mean it'll be the end for the characters within them, the new Easter eggs in CE Collection hints at Laura returning as young laura for example.

But that all remains to be seen!

[onyx summit]

The screenshot in #cube-escape-series-help reminded me I thought that was a funky way to cut a cake in Birthday. Then I remembered that Dale is only nine. Who makes a nine year old cut a birthday cake? I can barely manage to cut a cake.

[topaz magnet]

there are so many knives in the rusty lake universe

that's why he was taught how to use one at a young age

[onyx summit]

He didn't do a very good job at it but I suppose that makes sense

[past inlet]

You gotta learn eventually best get them started young i mean

i was given alcohol as a minor so i dont think i have any right to speak on what a childs allowed to do

[topaz magnet]

when you live in a world with recurring items over and over again you have to learn how to use them

like with the matches

and fish I guess

[onyx summit]

The f i s h

[past inlet]

the fish

[forest willow]

Bro there are furries collecting some square memories to a buch of water, and you’re saying a kid cutting cake doesn’t make sense /j

[onyx summit]

Yes

[grave dove]

Man idk why,
Rusty lake vanderboom band level was so scary for me

[topaz magnet]

maybe because you have the feeling of knowing something bad is gonna happen

even before you finish it for the first time

[onyx summit]

Chapter 4 of Case 23 tho

[topaz magnet]

I cant take it seriously because the wall pattern reminds me of that drawing of the gangsta skeleton for some reason

maybe because it looks like a skull drawn on the same style

[onyx summit]

It reminded me of Don't Starve when your character's low on sanity

[grave dove]

I mean the entire case 23 was unnerving

[onyx summit]

But Chapter 4 made my heart race

There's a reason I don't play many action games and time limits is that reason

[grave dove]

Horror*

[onyx summit]

I don't play horror games, except Rusty Lake and they're kinda light in that theme.

If I'm making sense

I'm carsick and can't think straight

[haughty light]

no i see where you're coming from

[timber drift]

Y a t'il des fr ?

[haughty light]

I'm assuming you're asking if there's some people around who speak French, but I would like to ask you to please keep it English in the main chats for moderation purposes.

[grave dove]

Hello

[onyx summit]

Ah good

[grave dove]

I love horror games

[onyx summit]

I don't do scary

Normally, anyway

The Corrupted Soul jumpscares me enough

[grave dove]

Lmao

Horror movies on the weekend is class

[wind nymph]

This is such a good picture/video ...two pictures

[odd sphinx]

Hello everyone

Happy thanksgiving

[past inlet]

not a joke but i love your pride icon

[odd sphinx]

Thank you

[past inlet]

((ppl will have do watch courage do get that...bdfnjvdsko i just noticed uhh context the bunny is a lesbian.))

[odd sphinx]

Yeah she is

😀

[past inlet]

yeah but we are getting off topic lol..XD mfdkbfd i just wanted to quickly make that reference

[odd sphinx]

Lol yeah

I’ve been trying to play rusty lake more but I have to arm myself with a pen and paper

[past inlet]

sounds fun

[odd sphinx]

It is

It’s so much more relaxing than some other games

[grave dove]

Its black Friday

Time to get rusty lake game

[haughty light]

aye! a wise purchase

[grave dove]

I already played all the games

I need to get them again

On my new computer

[forest willow]

But like, don’t they get saved on steam?

Like, can’t you just transfer the account to another computer?

[onyx summit]

I was thinking the same thing

[grave dove]

OH YE

[onyx summit]

I'm wanna try some very late Laketober art, but I feel like if someone sees my sketchbook with things like Corruption and "there will be blood", they'll be concerned for me

[paper coyote]

O just make them familiar with the whole Rusty Lake universe in this case

[onyx summit]

"Why yes, mother, I do play games with ghosts and blood. What do you mean I can't play them anymore? I'm just drawing fan art."

[haughty light]

They're super wholesome and fine

[onyx summit]

[forest willow]

She was just playing with ketchup

[onyx summit]

XD

[grave dove]

Ok I pull up

[rich jetty]

What is this discord for

[solid bridge]

this server is for the game community called Rusty Lake

[rich jetty]

@tulip hemlock is it Hugo like oog-go or Hugo like hieu-go

[tulip hemlock]

oog-go

[onyx summit]

Starting Hotel 🙌

[wind nymph]

GL

[hollow valve]

hola

finsished all the games recently so thats awesome

i still dont understand just what Vincent van gogh has to do with the story

i know that one guy liked his art a lot but thats it

[dull parcel]

You can always try to come up with an answer on #🤔｜theories , i can say vincent is one to discuss about

And congrats on finishing the whole series!

[hollow valve]

maybe it will be explained a bit more in the past within

who knows

trying to get my friend into the series

so i have a friend to play it with

[dull parcel]

Noice, the more the souls, the merrier the lake

[maiden phoenix]

Devs are dutch

[hollow valve]

ahh ok

still dont know

[maiden phoenix]

it might be a game for memorial sake

[hollow valve]

hmmm

possibly

[maiden phoenix]

RL studio is a dutch studio

[hollow valve]

there are quite a few refrences to Vincent and i feel like they wouldnt make a whole game just for memorial sake

[maiden phoenix]

quite a few?

there are many reference to his art work in other RL games

[hollow valve]

thats just how i talk sorry

[maiden phoenix]

what does this have to do with the topic we are discussing

anyway, u can always ask some stuff in #🤔｜theories

[hollow valve]

okay

[grave dove]

Can i ask what the cube escape series is all about? Is the murder of the woman the main point?or is it related to the cubes?

[haughty light]

I mean Id argue the main focus on of the CE games is the story of the woman and the detective

[grave dove]

Ohhh thank you

[tame rune]

What if a rusty lake game took place in 80s?

The most recent era mentioned in the series is 70s

[haughty light]

well at least Seasons Winter does

[paper coyote]

More disco for the series!

[tame rune]

Arcade cabinets

[haughty light]

anyway i'd be on board with more disco and RL arcade cabinets

[paper coyote]

Definitely a good idea

Imagine a Rusty Lake game for an arcade cabinet

[haughty light]

this reminds me of like

[tame rune]

80s amsterdam

[haughty light]

Submachine? I think those games ahve a cabinet in them at least.

well yknow RL doesn't take place in the Netherlands

[tame rune]

Look like stuff found in netherlands

[haughty light]

That probably can't be helped seeing as the devs r Dutch but those beautiful mountains you see; we ain't got em here

[tame rune]

Where are the games take place?

[haughty light]

we have no idea 😄

[forest willow]

No idea, but I think they happen in different places each one

Like, not only small place wise, you know

[frigid depot]

hi

[wind nymph]

Hi Landell

[onyx summit]

Well I guess I'm not finishing Roots because there's no way I'm touching a no-no board, even a digital one

[rustic geode]

Ah let me guess, Albert isn't it?

[onyx summit]

Aye, well Rose

But it's Alberta's branch

I don't suppose there's a way to bypass it?

Any cheat codes?

[rustic geode]

nope, you gotta do it
don't worry just close your eyes, click twice and open them

works like a charm

[onyx summit]

~_~

Idk

[rough wind]

Its just an ouija board, its not haunted... Y̷͊̈e̴̔̈́ṫ̶̑

[dull parcel]

theres an even more haunted chess board coming, ig the ouija level is just a warmup

[rustic geode]

Oh wait, Ouija board
I thought... oh god

[onyx summit]

I'm okay with chess boards lol
I'm not okay with things that are used irl to do...risky things

[solid bridge]

ah well, but it's in a game, i dont think it really affects irl?

[rough wind]

I mean... irl luigi boards dont affect irl either lmao

[rich jetty]

I really want a Glock but I’m scared if I had one I’d kill myself 😢

[rustic geode]

I don't know what it does have to do with Rusty lake, plus we don't talk about suicide it's a hard topic
If you need help, call your local suicide hotline

[rich jetty]

Yeah I don’t know why I’m here

I don’t remember joining this server

Bye bye!!

[rustic geode]

c'ya then

[past inlet]

If you think it will summon a ghost or smth video games dont really work like that (lol duh) you would have do use one irl to do so

[pine kernel]

hiii

good morning

[haughty light]

hey Yinan! welcome to the server be sure to go over the #✅｜rules

[soft hamlet]

Hi 👋

[onyx summit]

;-;

[past inlet]

so unless you use a literal ouija board youre safe, its a game not a real demon summoning

[onyx summit]

I just don't know.....

[past inlet]

but fr nothing will happen idk how your family is with such things (and i frankly dont care thats a them thing) fr if it summoned someone half of us would be dead or possessed

[onyx summit]

How many people are online compared to how many have joined, eh?
That's a joke but yeah
I'm just paranoid in general

[past inlet]

its a game fr nothing bad will happen

[stoic yacht]

If it helps, Lynn, Ouija boards are toys invented in the early 1880s or 1890s or so. They have about as much power as Barbie voodoo dolls.

[past inlet]

theres barbie voodoo dolls?

[stoic yacht]

I mean, probably? I meant it in the sense that Barbies are also clearly toys.

Spirit boards themselves have existed for longer, but it's hard to say how closely they resembled the modern oujia board.

Fun fact: Hasbro owns the trademark

[past inlet]

hey kids, demons!

[stoic yacht]

It's me, ya boi

[stoic yacht]

Okay, we need to move this to cabin

XD

[past inlet]

right lol sadly cross quoting across diff chats wont work ((discord should make that a thing))

[wind nymph]

Tbh, you're playing AS the ghost who gives the answers TO Rose. There's nothing to be summoned, the ghost was you all along.

[sharp rose]

are you guys talking about rusty lake roots?

[wind nymph]

Yes

[sharp rose]

my fav game xD

[wind nymph]

Mine is BirthdayParadoxSamsaraRoom

I can't decide

[onyx summit]

I like Paradox :>

[past inlet]

Roots is cool but if i had to choose a cube escape game case 23

[wind nymph]

I was all hyped about Paradox, especially the movie. Birthday really got to me though with Overall scariness. Samsara Room has the best soundtrack

Case 23 Was too stressful for me at the end, and that slide puzzle is a bad memory too. Black Cube ⬛

[humble tide]

when im getting my laptop i am definitely picking up all the rusty lake games, i need to play them in order

[onyx summit]

I watched a walkthrough for the end of Roots and I just have one question. Why the heck was William naked when he drank the elixir?

[topaz magnet]

side effects

[wind nymph]

Lmao i never thought of that but you're right

[void gull]

Hello! I have a problem with Rusty Lake Paradise and Hotel, I can't get the achievements, is that normal?

[analog socket]

One of the many unanswered questions, LOL I think it's just an asset reused without thinking twice.

[past inlet]

Lmao i have had that question in the back of my head too

[haughty light]

Sorry for the late answer; this probably is an issue with steam overlay I do believe there are some fixes documented on the steam community discussions / guides (if you're playing on pc)

Make sure you're online when playing!

[chilly dome]

<@&358613639554400258> Where do i report a scammer

[rustic geode]

DM us mods about any scammer reports

[chilly dome]

kk

[strange salmon]

I wish lots of luck to all the participants of the sticker contest!

[lost mural]

I repeat the question for the 3rd time) Why was the point-and-click genre chosen for Rusty Lake?

||I wonder if anyone will answer?||

[rustic geode]

Well, like Damy said previously, it's better to have this question for future QnA

[past inlet]

Just cause i guess?Is the best answer i a non dev can give you

maybe making point n clicks was cheaper?

[paper coyote]

Maybe the devs were familiar with the genre before starting to create their own universe, maybe they felt like this would fit a puzzle game full of mysteries better… who knows 👐🏻

It’s just at least what I can imagine

[grave dove]

You're on the road

[tame wren]

it slaps

[forest willow]

Idk but

Maybe it was more fitting?

Like it’s kinda biased since I’m already used to the game but

I feel like a “walking” game would be kinda weird

[past inlet]

RL walking sim when

[haughty light]

I think a labyrinth like walking Sim for the forest area would work well

[grave dove]

Hi guys!

[haughty light]

but lmao it would be a farcry from RLs usual setup

heya Dzalfa o/

[forest willow]

Today I’ve discovered the “sim” means simulator and not anything related to “the sims”

[past inlet]

lmaooooooooooooooooooooooo

[grave dove]

hi i need help

how make the parot give me a flower

[wind nymph]

Just play Music on the Radio

[grave dove]

oh ok thx

[grave dove]

heyyy

my frend

i complet this why i cant take phone

[empty hedge]

maybe the order is wrong?

been a while since I last played seasons so idk

[rustic geode]

guys, any help should go to #cube-escape-series-help (As the game is Seasons)

[grave dove]

ok thx

[grave dove]

1 for the money and the free rides

[paper coyote]

5 million views for Paradox wow 🤯

[haughty light]

[wind nymph]

Wow, nice!

[brittle bridge]

[past inlet]

RL gave away paradox CH2 steam keys btw (on twitter like 26 mins ago)

[maiden phoenix]

they all gone in less than 8 mins I guess

according to the comment

[past inlet]

guess so

anyways slaps myself on the head congrats to the winners of the stickers contest

[onyx summit]

I thought the deadline was midnight

[past inlet]

This is so incredibly nostalgic for me. I joined the server because of the Paradox advent calendar!

[haughty light]

A true throwback!

[strange salmon]

A piece of art

[soft hamlet]

Hello. I don’t fully understand how works Rusty Lake advent calendar?

[haughty light]

We'll find out tomorrow I guess!

[soft hamlet]

Ok

[onyx summit]

I need answers

[dull parcel]

Fan service

[onyx summit]

[wind nymph]

Lmao

[past inlet]

tbh i bet some ppl wouldnt mind seeing Dale naked tho (some)

[onyx summit]

I think he's cute but no thanks I'm good xD

[fervent tartan]

Wat is this adventist calendar?

Is RL with christian themes?

[fervent tartan]

Waht

[past inlet]

you heard what i said

[fervent tartan]

No

Wait

About the adventist calendar

[humble tide]

its a christmas advent calendar

[fervent tartan]

Hm

Why the adventist

:P

So

[onyx summit]

So...advent calendars are a thing where a different door is opened for every day until Christmas. Behind the doors are usually candy or toys. It's not necessarily a Christian thing, as many people with different religions use them.

[past inlet]

you mean advent lmao..

[humble tide]

ye

[fervent tartan]

O

[past inlet]

Adventist means smth else

[fervent tartan]

Oh

Wait a sec I gtg

[onyx summit]

Cya

[fervent tartan]

Hello

[fervent tartan]

Oh

I thought it was adventist

It's a branch of a certain religion

So

I didn't know that

Wow :P

[fervent tartan]

So, they are going to sell it?

I wish I could buy those

steal my mom credit card lol

[onyx summit]

I don't really know what's going on with it. 🤷‍♀️

[onyx summit]

[fervent tartan]

Oo

Oh yea

I saw on Instagram

[rustic geode]

It's most likely going to be online calendar that opens everyday on twitter/instagram

[onyx summit]

cries in I'm-not-on-social-media

[unreal timber]

well if you read the announcement it also says it'll be posted here everyday : )

jesus i typoed that four times lmao

[past inlet]

pog mine too!

[strange salmon]

Congrats! Congrats to everyone who participated, #🏆｜contest-submissions is fulfilled of wonderful submissions!

[haughty light]

Yes! We've added the stickers!

We're almost ready to push the announcement with the next contest too

[worn rock]

[tender vigil]

@haughty light You think you guys could do a creative writing competition one time? I suck at drawing lol.

[haughty light]

We did actually host an all art styles go contest earlier this year, but I'm sure we can focus exclusively on writing at some point

again we'd love to hear suggestions for contest types and themes in #💭｜suggestions-and-feedback 😄

[worn rock]

[crimson night]

i wnat to play more rutsy lake but they are for money......

😭

[haughty light]

well you see Aren, if you submit a banner for the contest you might win a key!

[crimson night]

key to what?

banner of what?

[haughty light]

check the latest #📣｜server-announcements 😄

[sonic solstice]

Question; So, say I end up winning (if I even participate), but I don't even have Steam (nor a laptop), would I be able to give the steam key to another user? (This goes for anyone else who doesn't have Steam, too)

[haughty light]

Uh ye if you win and you get a key you can't use you're free to give it out to whoever I think

it'll be ur key after all!

[ionic zodiac]

Is there a sticker on the server that hasn't been added yet?

[dull parcel]

Did i hear nft? 👀

[sonic solstice]

Alright, thank you! I just didn't wanna end up having a key, and not being able to use it, and have other members with amazing art who could use it!

[haughty light]

uhhh we said top 5 and the top 5 votes have been added @ionic zodiac

[humble tide]

🍰 oh naww damy sellin nfts of rusty lake keys

[ionic zodiac]

yes i won but i couldn't find mine

[maiden phoenix]

[dull parcel]

I still cant hold my laugh upon party beth

[dull parcel]

This is gold

[ionic zodiac]

oh!!

[haughty light]

it's here!

[onyx summit]

I still don't know who Elizabeth is-

[ionic zodiac]

i find it thank you!!!

[haughty light]

play paradise! @onyx summit

[onyx summit]

I am currently more than halfway through, I believe

OH

[maiden phoenix]

She is actually my most unhated character in Paradise

[onyx summit]

Is she the blind girl?

[haughty light]

Ye she is.

[onyx summit]

Ohh

Okie dokie then

[haughty light]

but on the sticker she's down to party

[maiden phoenix]

yes

[grave dove]

Hi

[haughty light]

o/

[grave dove]

Did I interrupted you guys?

[haughty light]

lmao no not at all

I think we were at the end of our conversation anyway

[strange salmon]

aaaa I'm happy

[grave dove]

Why?

[strange salmon]

The contest!

[grave dove]

Ohhhh

[strange salmon]

I yet can't believe someone voted for my gentleshrimp

<3

[haughty light]

Just very polite.

[onyx summit]

That shrimp is beautiful

[grave dove]

Niceeee

[ionic zodiac]

it's so cute!!

[haughty light]

@strange salmon are you okay with my "Mr. Shrimp" naming convention or would you prefer gentleshrimp?

[strange salmon]

Hm

Mr. Shrimp is okay

[haughty light]

alright I'll keep it as is then, thanks!

[worn rock]

[grave dove]

I have no nitro so yea

[worn rock]

Cat Laura Cute

[haughty light]

lmao I can't believe we have two cat lauras now?

[strange salmon]

Righht

[worn rock]

Where is Floppa

[maiden phoenix]

there are so many cat emojis

[worn rock]

[strange salmon]

Is that Milo is too emojiable

[sonic solstice]

This server really loves cats, and I love that

[haughty light]

we did have a milo emote contest!

[maiden phoenix]

[grave dove]

I have to draw more rusty lake fanart or I won’t sleep

[worn rock]

Floppaura

[strange salmon]

There are many things in Rusty Lake and other Second Maze things that are very emojiable now that I think about it

[haughty light]

@grave dove if you do be sure to enter the banner art contest! 😄

[haughty light]

ye it's true!

[sonic solstice]

I've actually never drawn RL fanart, so if I do enter this contest, it'll be interesting

[haughty light]

if you think of any specifics feel free to leave theme suggestions in #💭｜suggestions-and-feedback

[grave dove]

I’m bad at art but I still enjoy it

[haughty light]

I'm a poet not a painter

[strange salmon]

My submission wasn't a fanart like Elizabeth Party for example, I just took a shimp picture, cleared the background, added some elegancy, and submitted. It actually won, I'm surprised

Just be creative

[haughty light]

ye this too^

[grave dove]

I might redraw my old rusty lake fanart

[sonic solstice]

I can't really do cleanly cut backgrounds for things, I draw on my phone and it's hard to erase everything, so there'll still be an outline. I also just really like drawing, so it'll be a fun adventure

[strange salmon]

Btw Damy, when will the prizes be delivered?

[haughty light]

for the sticker contest? NoFlavor should contact you!

[strange salmon]

Oh great, I'll patiently wait!

[grave dove]

What is the prize? (Sorry I’m new here)

[haughty light]

it's in the announcement, we usually offer one steam key of your choice for a RL game

[strange salmon]

A steamkey!

[haughty light]

or sometimes a postcard

[strange salmon]

Oh that would be nice too

[sonic solstice]

Hm, someone educate me, please- What is a steam key? Like, what does it do?

[rustic geode]

It's like

[maiden phoenix]

free game basically

[rustic geode]

You use it to get a free game

[strange salmon]

You can exchange it for a free steam game!

[haughty light]

on the gaming platform, Steam.

[sonic solstice]

Ooohhhh, I see. I kinda figured but my last brain cell wasn't processing lol

[strange salmon]

However a steam key is for a preselected game, not for any

In this case, Rusty Lake games!

[sonic solstice]

That makes sense

[pulsar forum]

December 2nd 🔑 🚪 What could this mean? 👀

[haughty light]

AMOGUS

[pulsar forum]

[tender lantern]

he said OMONGUS

https://tenor.com/view/omori-omori-kel-kel-omori-kel-sussy-gif-21377573

[rustic geode]

On the second day of Christmas, the lake gave me to me
....a steam key code? 👀

[onyx summit]

I can't watch videos because potato connection ;-;

[stoic yacht]

sus

im in a meeting aaa

[haughty light]

I'm currently allowing everyone ot suggest I think editor could be a bit on the hectic side.

[stoic yacht]

im freeee

[ruby flare]

can someone tell me the chronological order of the games?

[haughty light]

RUSTY LAKE ADVENT CALENDAR 2021 GOOGLE DOC
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iLdg-gTYrkS7rASzOsfM6eAJRcxkra0efNiXWwpIxIQ/edit?usp=drivesdk

[rustic geode]

Łeave it for mods only if they don't behave

[stoic yacht]

@ruby flare
You can find an older one here: http://blog.rustylake.com/updated-chronology/
For a play order, you can check #📚｜resources

[ruby flare]

then do I have to follow this order?

@stoic yacht

[haughty light]

you don't have too, but it is recommended you do.

[stoic yacht]

It's recommended you follow the order in #📚｜resources . The Chronological order in the link is

1. incomplete, as more games have released since
2. just for lore

[ruby flare]

ok I understand, thank you!!

[stoic yacht]

👍 Have fun!

Has anyone claimed the key from the calendar yet? I'm curious which game it is.

On the second day of Christmas, the dev team gave to me: a mysterious and secret Steam key.

[soft pawn]

I think its Rusty Lake Hotel but i haven't claimed it

[open badge]

How to activate the code and where?

[stoic yacht]

That would be my guess, but I need to know XD

Hello! It's a Steam key, so you activate it through your Steam client.

[open badge]

Oh thank you! Exactly what i searching for!

[stoic yacht]

👍

[open badge]

oh(

[stoic yacht]

Has it already been claimed?

[open badge]

yes

[stoic yacht]

Darn!

[maiden phoenix]

sad

[rustic geode]

Someone said in the doc it was for Hotel

[stoic yacht]

It does make sense, bestie mr bat gave it away, after all

[haughty light]

aye!

[maiden phoenix]

Ii shows product already owned to me as well

I only bought Hotel and Roots on Steam

[stoic yacht]

It's been claimed by now.

[maiden phoenix]

which means

it is Hotel I guess

[stoic yacht]

But that helps narrow it down.

[stoic yacht]

Or maybe Mr. Bat took an island vacation.

[haughty light]

ye no that pretty much confirms hotel.

Roots has nothing to do with islands Sammy

[stoic yacht]

...Why did I read Paradise

..Maybe he took a well deserved vacation

[analog socket]

Can we use it too?

[stoic yacht]

Yes you can! Just try to keep it a bit organized

[analog socket]

[haughty light]

ye everyone's welcome

but if I spot misuse im shutting it down.

[stoic yacht]

Damy will turn this car around!

[haughty light]

I will

[stoic yacht]

sus

[open badge]

I have a question. Will the new advents doors always will be announced at the same time?

[haughty light]

@open badge yesterday was 4;28 on twitter, today 4;05

(for me)

(PM)

(Central european time)

[strange salmon]

That's a steam key?

[haughty light]

Yes.

probably for hotel

already claimed.

[open badge]

Interesting. Thanks for answering

[onyx summit]

What was the clue yesterday?

[haughty light]

none that I can discern from the intro

[onyx summit]

Ah okay

[onyx summit]

I think it looks like part of a maze

[stoic yacht]

Nope. There might be something to go back to once we have more info, but I'm thinking it was just a Hi We're Doing This

[haughty light]

unless there's something in the stars.

[stoic yacht]

...THey've used the stars before

On the Cave postcard

[stoic yacht]

Or the uh, postcard that announced Cave

[haughty light]

Ill add it to the doc.

[strange salmon]

Where was it released? Haven't seen anything on Twitter or Discord

[haughty light]

the advent calendar?

there was an announcement in #📯｜rl-announcements it's also on twitter

NoFlavor posted the day2 video in #🩸｜general-chat and RL tweeted the day2 video too.

[strange salmon]

Ohoh okok

[stoic yacht]

The stars I was talking about

[haughty light]

see!

[stoic yacht]

(had to find a pic real quick)

[haughty light]

[rough wind]

Yeah, i think that for now theres not that much we can do with that shape lmao

[haughty light]

well I will collect all the data

[wind nymph]

Thorough

[strange salmon]

So an Y and a C or D

[rough wind]

All of it?

[stoic yacht]

Maybe if we put multiple zoom-outs together, or even just 1 and 31

[haughty light]

aye

[past inlet]

thats sus lol..

[strange salmon]

This reminds me of paradox idk why

[haughty light]

it reminds me of the SM logo mostly.

but Im assuming they might have the same artist

[strange salmon]

SM?

[haughty light]

Second Maze.

[strange salmon]

Ohhh

Yes you're right

[strange salmon]

It's not like a fragment of it?mm

Hold on

[onyx summit]

I did say it looks like a maze

[rustic geode]

It's not

I tried to like

merge two images

it's not part of the second maze logo

[stoic yacht]

Yeah me too, the bottom (turned left) looks like it could fit, but it doesn't

[onyx summit]

OMG IT IS

Rotate the symbol to the left and flip it

The among us guy matches up with the bottom right of the maze

[onyx summit]

Oh really? Fudge

[rustic geode]

The "I" one kinda fits but then the rest doesn't do it quite so

[haughty light]

ye it doesn't quite go there.

[onyx summit]

It still could be a fragment of a maze though?

[haughty light]

Yep.

[rustic geode]

Well I'd say let's wait for day 3 :3

[stoic yacht]

GIVE IT UP FOR DAY 3

[haughty light]

Rainys right though!

https://tenor.com/view/mr-krabs-day-bell-ring-give-it-up-nickelodeon-gif-16615721

[rustic geode]

Maybe day 3 will give us more clues

[stoic yacht]

Lmao

[haughty light]

Sammy im expecting you to post this every day now

[onyx summit]

YAS

[rustic geode]

with text "Day [number] give it up for day [number]"

[stoic yacht]

07

[haughty light]

07

[rustic geode]

07

[onyx summit]

08

[haughty light]

LMAO

anywya ye im really excited

a puzzle to solve with y'all

[stoic yacht]

I love these things

[haughty light]

I just shilled for the server again on my twitter

my 274 followers WILL NOT ESCAPE Rusty Lake

[stoic yacht]

Y'all have followers

?

[strange salmon]

These two shapes are very similar anyways. Maybe the clue is an I?

[haughty light]

mhmmaybe

weshould keep in mind, of course,

[dull parcel]

opens paradox to vheck the map

[haughty light]

that Second Maze is technically not RL.

[onyx summit]

Also I should probably know what Second Maze is?

[haughty light]

@onyx summit Second Maze is founded by the RL founders, but they're a Game publishing company rather than a Game Development one.

[onyx summit]

Good plan

[onyx summit]

Oh I see

[strange salmon]

You're right.. maybe TheWhiteDoor?? Mr bat came out from a door that wasn't white but- idk

[haughty light]

(hence why we host the Second Maze channels on this server)

[dull parcel]

Nah, honestly it will prolly need more stuff, we have more than 20 doors to open yet!

[onyx summit]

Welp advent calendars are all about opening doors...white ones too??? 👀

[dull parcel]

It will spell amogus in the end, but gonna wait to be sure

[haughty light]

[stoic yacht]

Wow, Mr. Parrot! Shhhhhh

We aren't allowed to spoil!

[humble tide]

🍰 rusty lake is connected to amogus now (real)

[stoic yacht]

(That's a joke, we don't know anything)

[dull parcel]

Or do we? 🤨

[analog socket]

Can someone add this to the doc?

[strange salmon]

Oh, I was about to screw everything

[haughty light]

everyone can add to the document and I already have 🙂

[dull parcel]

(Sammys right kids dont kidnap the mods for answers thx)

[haughty light]

pls dont!

[stoic yacht]

Please do not!

[past inlet]

inb4 you all go missing

[rustic geode]

I already kidnapped them so you can't do it again

I made sure they have a save house made out of gingerbread

[past inlet]

Hanzel and Gretel?

[haughty light]

I feel like we;re drfiting off topic guys

[rustic geode]

Yep, I'm gonna take it to #🛖｜the-cabin

[strange salmon]

Yes yes

[past inlet]

didnt feel like changing rooms to say that one thing..XD

[analog socket]

I'm sorry to bother, but you haven't. Not that one.

[haughty light]

are you sure you're in the same docvument?

lmao

[analog socket]

OK, i've probably some screen problem...

[ancient herald]

is the second symbol of the last row a capital o or a zero?

[haughty light]

I think its a zero

[ancient herald]

okayy thankss

[strange salmon]

As a lore obsessed, I just hope this reveal any kind of lore

Because I'm feeded with lore

[haughty light]

here's to hoping!

[past inlet]

you know the scariest thing about Laura is that shes strong enough do actually swing an axe but also carry one

[strange salmon]

That's not scary

Is weird

[past inlet]

how is it weird

[haughty light]

An axe really isn't that heavy.

My 12 year old scouts deal with em fine.

[past inlet]

i dunno im a city slicker never held an axe in my life

[strange salmon]

You're the leader of a scouts group?

[hallow fractal]

Anyone figure out the calender awnser yet?

[strange salmon]

Nope, the best I have so far is that similarities with the Second Maze logo

[haughty light]

It's very likely the answer consists kf multiple parts

[hallow fractal]

Ok then I've figured out the exact same thing

[haughty light]

So all we can do now is wait

[haughty light]

Yep!

[strange salmon]

Yeah, next clue will show up tomorrow and we maybe can find something then. You can't complete a puzzle with only one piece

[hallow fractal]

True

Can't wait for tomorrow

[strange salmon]

Me neither! I'm happy because I couldn't participate in the White Door ARG and I can participate in this now :)

[hallow fractal]

I agree, this is super cool

!

[haughty light]

Ye It's obviously not as intense as the arg but I'm looking forward to solving riddles with y'all over the coming month!

[strange salmon]

All the fandom relieves just to solve puzzles, It's something I just love about little fandoms

[haughty light]

Yes!

[strange salmon]

Little question, how do I nominate a game for the Steam Awards? Samsara Room, specifically

[haughty light]

was samsara released in 2021? if not i dunno if u can

[strange salmon]

Oh

Sure

I'm stoopid

Well.. the white door then I guess

[haughty light]

that was 2020 too

I dont think RL released anything in 2021?

[stoic yacht]

An awesome trailer?

Let's somehow nominate the trailer

[strange salmon]

Hmm I have a new in my steam home, that says I can nominate The White Door

That's why I thought I could nominate any

Anyways

[stoic yacht]

Well, in that case!

[dull parcel]

not rl, but we have mitoza and milo (as well as categories that they fit perfectly!)

[strange salmon]

Oh yesyesyes

Thanks!

[haughty light]

O ye milo!

I nominated milo myself I'm pretty sure

I think I went for art style?

[fervent tartan]

I thought you name was Dammy

[haughty light]

No it's not. It's D a m y

[fervent tartan]

Damy?

Then who's mile?

Milo*

You nominated yourself as Milo

So

[haughty light]

Very funny!

[fervent tartan]

Waht

[haughty light]

Just make sure you get my name right the first time next time you make a joke.

[dull parcel]

iirc i dropped it into the relaxing game one

and mitoza for unique gameplay

[fervent tartan]

• What joke-?

I feel confused

Whatever

[haughty light]

This wasn't a joke on how I "voted milo myself"?

[fervent tartan]

No

I really thought ur name was Milo

:I

Bad English interpretation is unhealthy 👍

[haughty light]

We seem to have ran into a miscommunication in that case!

[fervent tartan]

I will go study

[haughty light]

No problem, my name is Damy like my display name implies.

Have a good study!

[fervent tartan]

I'm in B3 already :D

[strange salmon]

Just playing TWD

Bob really loved Laura

[wheat ravine]

hi

[haughty light]

hey Kraoki! welcome to the server 😄

[stoic yacht]

[wheat ravine]

i hope you're ok ! i love rusty lake games and i never thought about the fact that there was a discord server 😭 now i got hype from the advent calendar

[stoic yacht]

[haughty light]

looking forward to having you while we solve the dastardly thing!

[untold sedge]

Has anyone figured out the advent calendar

[haughty light]

we have a document where we're connecting clues

door 2 itself is probably not enough to solve a puzzle

[untold sedge]

Door 2 is a steam key

It’s a free download for Hotel

[haughty light]

Aye,

[fervent tartan]

O

[haughty light]

Z3YML-QABNN-I0RJC but heres the code for your perusing

[fervent tartan]

I have no computer :/

[untold sedge]

I tried it but I already have Hotel so

[haughty light]

I think someone else claimed the key!

[untold sedge]

Where’s that doc tho I wanna keep up 👀

[haughty light]

it's in pinned messages.

anyone can edit but if y'all dont behave im shutting it down.

[fervent tartan]

How do I see pinned messages

[haughty light]

here.

[fervent tartan]

O

The pink person got a point

But I have no paradox lol

Have someone already tried it?

[haughty light]

I posted the paradox map underneath the comment.

[fervent tartan]

O

Leme c

Wow

The maze pattern looks reversed

From the logo

Wait a sec pls

Oh forget

[dull parcel]

yall just wait my classes to end

im bringing the shovel to the rabbit hole of advent calendars

[haughty light]

LMAO

looking forward to it!

[tame wren]

i told my sister a bit about rusty lake and she said it was animal crossing

me omw to throw hands with her

[haughty light]

I dunno she might b right

[tame wren]

point is i WILL get her into the games and we will play past within together someday 😤

[ripe girder]

[vague spruce]

I thought the maze pattern on the door had a bit of a sus shape

[past inlet]

beat you do it lol

[vague spruce]

hey, I just joined the server LOL

[past inlet]

lmao well welcome then

[haughty light]

Ye welcome aboard! Enjoy trying to solve the advent riddles

[pine mortar]

[azure tangle]

Hello! Finally found out here

[haughty light]

Hey partymaa welcome to the server!

[lone sparrow]

Welcome

[fervent tartan]

So

The advent calendar

I have the feeling it's happening rn

I can't see ig bc it appears that moodle blocks my social apps while I'm in class

[haughty light]

well yes it is?

[fervent tartan]

For some reason I can still be here

[haughty light]

but there's not been a tweet yet

and NoFlavor has not posted the video here yet/

[fervent tartan]

Ow

[rough wind]

Its gonna do drop in an hour if they follow some kind of schedule!

[haughty light]

yes that would make sense.

but let's not make that defintiive

[rough wind]

Yes, keyword, if

[fervent tartan]

I see they doing some kind of prank with us and posting 23:59

Lol

[pulsar forum]

December 3rd 🔑🚪

[haughty light]

MHM

[stoic yacht]

DAY 3, LET'S GIVE IT UP FOR DAY 3

[onyx summit]

Hotel dress codes 🤔

[stoic yacht]

The doc's already updated

[haughty light]

Does anyone have a screenshot of the last achievement of the Cave at hand?

[stoic yacht]

No, but I could if givwn a moment

[fervent tartan]

Hi I'm back

OOO

[rustic geode]

the secret one or the story one?

[haughty light]

the story continues the secret one.

in the box.

[fervent tartan]

What's dress code

Sorry I'm dumb

[haughty light]

a dresscode; when you go somewhere and you need to be dressed a certain way.

[fervent tartan]

Oh

Thank

[stoic yacht]

Was this what you were looking for?

[haughty light]

No sorry

I meant the contents of the box.

[rustic geode]

oh oh! I'll look it for you

[stoic yacht]

Ooooh

[fervent tartan]

Don't we have a image library or something like that in fandom site

[haughty light]

tahnk you.

[rustic geode]

no problemo!

[stoic yacht]

Damy's mind is going

[haughty light]

young laura game confirmed.

[stoic yacht]

Lmao, I can believe it

[haughty light]

if anyone claims the key please let us know for what game it is.

[fervent tartan]

What

How

[haughty light]

Well the current two days have both been hotel guests

[fervent tartan]

Yes

[haughty light]

day 3 mentions "hotel dress code"

[haughty light]

the achievement has a hotel key and a probable visiting cardof said hotel

one of the Christmas cards teased Cube Escape Cave

its not unlikely to assume they might be hinting at the young laura game.

[fervent tartan]

You guys are big brain

[rough wind]

Whose room is room 6 in hotel?

I forget

[frozen ermine]

i am not sure if the code is a game key
its not a format i am familiar with

its not a steam or epic key

[onyx summit]

I think it's the last one? Either Boar or Pheasant?

[stoic yacht]

Good point

[haughty light]

good catch!

[fervent tartan]

O
