#dead signal

[mechanical-v1scera]

this came to me in a vision

[skippybara]

So hes taking up more brain... I ended up drawing him at work in the very limited down time i got.

Do you think he would want me, chat?

(also please enjoy my little doodle notes. And I'm posting two days in a row??? What the freak?)

[vendettapandav]

EVERYONE LEAVE THIS IS ALL IM GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT FOR THE NEXT MONTH

LOOK AT HIM. LOOK AT HOW CONFIDENT HE WALKS. LOOK AT HOW FUCKED UP HE LOOKS!

HE GRADUATED FROM BEING GOOFY SCARY TO STRAIGHT UP NIGHTMARE FUEL

[buntsukim]

john ward is there for height reference since hes like 6'2...

more info about the au under the cut :-)

if you cant tell from the name abbreviations in order its:

clint edwards, adam, amelea lewis (pre and post possession), the breather, lydia (first and current design), luna youngman, mr delfalco, and tanner grayton.

so basically the wttg cast take the places of the faith cast. its kind of just the faith story but with the wttg cast and minor differences (since the wttg cast is like. significantly more morally evil)

clint edwards takes the place of john ward, because:

theyre both protags and i like putting clint in situations. i also just find their personalities and struggles similar. for clints design, the white dot is a rosary, and the white thing he holds is a camera. the flash scares demons away, and i thought it was fitting for a reporter.

adam takes the place of gary miller, because:

both cult leaders, and FREAKY 👅. also both main antagonists. as much as i wouldve liked to out adam in garys creep outfit i just couldnt. so to make his design stand out a bit more hes crooked to the left. makes him more uncanny, like hes wearing his own skin.

amelea lewis takes the place of amy martin, because:

girl that the protagonist tries desperately to save but ultimately fails and it haunts them forever!? also theyre both my fav girls ever. every character in wttg is an adult, so they remain adults here despite amy being like 17. so amelea is grown. not an excuse to be weird tho

the breather takes the place of michael davies, because:

i just think irs reallyyyy funny. im only human okay... the breather could be described as a naked man in the woods, dont you think? i really dont have a deep reason it was just a feeling...

lydia takes the place of tiffany robinson, because:

tiffany was like very desperate for gary and i think thats fitting for lydias whole thing. even though i dont think she was obsessed with adam, i can definitely see her in that position. also originally she was sister miriam but... haha.

luna youngman takes the place of lisa pearson, because:

blah blah clint and luna childhood friends is real to me okay... and luna smoking and them fighting alu.... UGHH JUST HEAR ME OUTTTT!!!!!! and they hold hands... lisa also just reminds me of luna in general on a personality thing. i kind of associate them together... maybe because they have similar names...

mr delfalco takes the place of father garcia, because:

listen i just needed someone to hold a shotgun and be morally (literally...) gray. and someone old. most characters didnt work for that... at the end of the day delfalco is what you get, alright? hes cool. he fits surprisingly well. or enough...

tanner grayton takes the place of miriam bell, because:

because i HATE HIM!!!!!!! i needed someone to take miriams bell but theres literally no women in wttg (WTF) so you know ehat just make tanner give birth to adam why not. give birth to a demon tanner... its punishment to give birth to a being as horrible as adam

anyway i do think thats every main character covered. the ones i have left would b like amys parents, the demons, or other characters that i dont think are thaat important. like father allred.

if theres any other character u think i should add tho tell me

shootout to my goat @keep-qui3t for helping me figure out some things and also motivating me 😮😮😮 more content soon

welcome to the game / dead signal / scrutinized stamps. i forgot from which games i grabbed certain gifs but its the same universe anyway so who cares

[vpandart]

Finally wrapped up a three-part piece I’ve been working on forever. Super proud of how it came out ❤️

4 years ago I made these OCs for the Reflect Studios series of games. 4 years later, I’ve remade them. These games are such an important part of my life and I’m so glad the dev is still going strong making them ❤️

What

[f4ggydog]

insym watching for the nighttt

[skippybara]

Heheh so theres this guy. And uhm so ehehe- and uh, you know hehe hes so- yk? He like breathes into your ear and reads you poetry (⁠.⁠ ⁠❛⁠ ⁠ᴗ⁠ ⁠❛⁠.⁠) I love the breather so much. (I want him.)

Wttg has been such an interest of mine for a long while on the back burner of my mind. This mf just awoke a hyperfixiation.

(holy shit the fandom isnt dead)

(ignore the other post if you saw it i forgot my signature)

hi i have too much time on my hands, i created a more detailed and evidence-supported timeline for the welcome to the game/reflect studios franchise!

obvs disclaimer: i played games on the easiest modes i could, bc i'm bad with cue-based things so i relied pretty heavily on the fan-wiki and the information there. i cross-verified where i could.

WELCOME TO THE GAME 1 - Unknown, 2016

Based on establishment dates of the Doctor Murder website (est. 2012, noted as running up to/until 2016).

Hot Burners uses a quote from an alleged customer from 2015; would assume to use a somewhat older quote to establish one's business as reputable (regardless of review being legitimate/real or otherwise).

Passports Are Us uses an image of the current Latvian passport, which the design for was established on or around Jan. 28, 2015; the game therefore has to take place after this date.

WAITING ROOM - Late 2017; Assumption

Considering the risk that comes with hosting Red Room streams, as well as the surrounding hype, it is unlikely that the streams are a common occurrence.

The reason I assume it is late 2017 is because of the existence and references made in Welcome to the Game 2.

== These two take place within close vicinity; Victim from WR calls Amalea to tell her they were burned / that Adam knows of their snooping into The Prey; It's not unfair to assume, given Adam's demeanor and general history across the games, risks would want to be taken care of as soon as possible to preserve his business ==

WELCOME TO THE GAME 2 - Early 2018; Assumption

Many sites that were present in the first game are either redone entirely or have become dead links. A bit of a stretch because expertise is varied, but it would take a while to do that while maintaining consistent clientele.

The player can find Clint's resident dossier on the lobby computer. He's 29, lives in 803, and is described as a "Very quiet individual, sticks to himself, pays rent on time. No issues." Not really relevant, but this would mean Clint was born between 1988 and 1989. He was a 90s kid, and that's so cute to me.

SCRUTINIZED - Middle of June 2020

Computer states that the date is June 14th on the starting night, and report dates are formated as 06/xx.

Social media posts are dated with 2020 (e.g., Jeniffer Connally, aka BloodAngel123). And yes, her name is spelled like that in the game.

DEAD SIGNAL - 2022

Confirmed by environmental details, such as a newspaper(?) clipping within Ronald's apartment. I don't own this title in the series, but have been watching a close friend play it and we both noticed this.

Clint contacts the player and says he has had run-ins with Adam in the past (re: WTTG 2). For him to phrase it this way shows a decent time has passed between the games, as not only is that just how US Americans tend to phrase it, but he's also telling this to a stranger (albeit, he owes The Shade a favor, and thus it's equally likely Shade told him to give Ronald any information he had to keep his employee alive)
