Oh...this game...Now i remeber it all

[krackothunder]

What's the game name?

[IzanagiSMT]

@krackothunder Yumei Nikki , its a game made on rpg maker 2003

[mdalsted]

@krackothunder Yume Nikki

[krackothunder]

@mdalsted OK THX

[DGneoseeker1]

Why exactly do you go into a small girl's room and stab her to death over and over again?

[Mysticsloth]

i haven't ever played the game - and I don't get this... ._.

what's the point of this - and why does it have 112 k pageviews?

i mean theres nothing really happening at all.. WHO the fuck would play this and enjoy it?

[NorthAnticipated]

@Mysticsloth Have you seen 3:24?

[Mysticsloth]

@NorthAnticipated yes sure but - it takes all the efford just to see this? i'm a hobby game designer myself but i don't get the point in this, please explain if you can - what's the fun in making the same move a few hundred times ( light off, go outside, go inside) over and over for 3 minutes and then to see a stupid face?

[KyuubiNoodleBear]

@Mysticsloth Surrealism.

[paddymoep]

@Mysticsloth The game works with probabilities. The chance to see uboa upon flicking the light-switch is 1/64. So some of the players ( who played the game blind, meaning without prior knowledge ) got scared and went to the ceiling, which is whole point of uboa ( except for the theories ).

To see all of the events in-game, you have to spend time with it ( on uboachan..) and if you wish you can go and see all of the events if you missed them.

[Mysticsloth]

@paddymoep aah... hm i see... thanks for explaining : )

[paddymoep]

@Mysticsloth Trust me, it's worth a lot for some people - even if saw the uboa event on youtube, they still go to poniko's house just to see for themselves. i did, too. but uboa was the reason i stumbled upon yume nikki, anyway. and i wouldn't say " stupid face ", as it holds meaning and is basically this game's mascot.

[Mysticsloth]

@paddymoep ...so what meaning does it hold exactly?

[paddymoep]

@Mysticsloth You noticed this game features no text or any scripture for that matter?

No one except for Kikiyama knows. I personally believe he is Madotsukis father. When he's home, he locks the door, yells at madotsuki, therefore the AAAAAAAAAA, even madotsuki even so much as touches him he will knock her out, causing her to vomit blood, as represented by the "vomiting god" that slightly looks like zoroark.. in uboa's semen land. Killing Poniko(mother) will also cause him to show up,

[SAKalleria]

@paddymoep Kikiyama has no idea what this game means because it was never meant to have a single meaning, it was just a strange game made for the sake of being strange. Whatever interpretation drawn from it (i.e. yours) is as correct as any. Also , you don't need to kill Poniko to make Uboa show up.

[paddymoep]

@SAKalleria Which is completely intentional. For starters, notice the similarity of Takofuusen and Masada's space ship. Some things are hints, the rest is open for theory.

Take the number world. Why does it have such ridiculously disturbing music?

Must be because Madotsuki hates math.

Also, saying it has no meaning at all is the same as making up theories like all others do. In YN beta, you got the fat effect from a mirror. Isn't it good for a game to spawn this many theories?

[SAKalleria]

@paddymoep "Isn't it good for a game to spawn this many theories?" Of course it is. All I was objecting to was "No one except for Kikiyama knows," because Kikiyama DOESN'T know, and has stated as much. It's like finding shapes in fire or clouds, nobody put anything there on purpose, but your mind inserts meaning. If that makes any sense.

Basically what I'm saying is that you are correct in every way that's important.

[paddymoep]

@SAKalleria Where did Kikiyama state this? I would like to know why he/she shattered the whole theory board of uboachan.net at once.

[MetaPhail]

@Mysticsloth me

[benlaneconnor]

Am I the only one who hears 'Lavender town" at the beginning of the house entrance?

[Miss6Nintendo]

3:24

[HappyGestapo]

I need to change my pants.

[ScizorTastic]

Anybody notice that the Category is "Education"?

[Rexapeikko]

what a creepy bastard

[hotelmario510]

That's Lovecraftian.

[TranquilFury1993]

A DQ in a cage match?

FUCK THIS COMPANY!

[asdasd439]

Man, he just wants a friend. Why do people have to stab him every time he tries to hug someone?

[Limukone]

What the fuck

[Concheria1]

Yume Nikki.

One of the creepiest games I've ever played

[shaunmon]

what the hell did i just watch for 5 mins!?

[FireClawzz]

Apparently, Uboa likes cats.

[Vakarianify]

Well that was creepy...

I have no idea what this game is or anything, but dear god.

[pura1998]

@Vakarianify Its called Yume nikki

And never play it with your lights off

[HardToBeAPoopGod]

3:24 to uboa

[RaidenWarriors]

0:02 MURDER!!!!

[DarkenIsGod]

An OCD sufferer's worst nightmare.

[SirPainsalot]

The face by itself is pretty funny... If you turn the sound off.

[JohnnyHGT]

This easter egg is freacking scaring!! I did it yesterday and then it gave me nightmares! Anyway, that little blonde girl must be possessed by anger and became the ghost Uboa after being killed! Awesome!

[seemstarshaped]

Isn't flicking a light switch one of the ways to test if you're in a lucid dream?

[LargeFG7777]

When people found this out by accident man they will be scared for life

[SkyShaymin1]

Imagine the people who found this out by accident O.o

[JackMcK123]

What happens when you turn the lights back on?

[shivers1231]

I am so glad I got this in like five tries because my DOWN KEY WAS NOT WORKING

[Emiliox30]

This game maybe doesn't look so bad after watching this video (if you can escape the fear uboa gives) but WAIT untill you go to the rest of the 11 doors to explore. got creeped out at the faces at eyeball world

[MaraquanWocky1]

4:13 "Didn't I already pass this head before?"

[Daizytehwolf]

If I were playing this game and this happened, I would piss myself.

[zolaga]

coulda just turned the lights on and off repeatedly...

[pivotjuggalo]

@zolaga It wont work like that, you have to do it by going in and out and then uboa will have a 64 in 1 chance of showing up.

[zolaga]

@pivotjuggalo Nope, I did it by clicking it on and off. It took awhile but it worked. 

[DarkenIsGod]

@zolaga

Liar. If you aren't lying you have a bugged or modified version of the game probably.

[zolaga]

@DarkenIsGod Do you always accuse people of lying so quickly. Get the game and do it yourself.

[MissReige]

@zolaga Vid or it didn't happen, since every other vid I've seen of people getting Uboa go in and out to get him.

[zolaga]

@MissReige I can't record on my pc, I would have recorded originally if I thought everyone would call me a liar. All I can say is go do it yourself :P

[MissReige]

@zolaga Looks like you're gonna need to borrow a friend's lappy and a screen capture program. Because it didn't happen if you can't prove it.

[zolaga]

@MissReige Yeah or you could get the game and play it yourself

[MissReige]

@zolaga Don't wanna. You're the one claiming it works that way.

[zolaga]

@MissReige Because I played it blind, got pissed at the blonde haired girl for not paying attention to me and flicked the lights on and off repeatedly and then she turned into that Uboa thing. I didn't even know what it was or why it happened until i looked online later.

[sociobalto0]

wtf with this sadistic, nervous and rare asiatics

[ManOfStars9000]

@omegagiga43 it's name is Uboa. It's from a Japanese pc freeware game called "Yume Nikki". Uboa has a 1/64 chance of appearing when you turn off that light. Yume Nikkivis an awesome game, I would definitely check it out if I were you. Oh and dontnlook up the ending, you really don't want an ending like that spoiled...

[omegagiga43]

...WTF is this?! Can someone tell me?

[windspank530]

Uboa's noises sound like vevuzelas.

[IIzSimon]

wtf is uboa

[TheBasalisx]

*5 hours of ligth switching later* OH SHIT!

[toyotomi4sei]

3:25 omg

[rainechoo]

You realize that the stabbing part is unnecessary, right?

I got uboa without it.

[XxXG30]

that shit its seriously disturbing

[Amperschwa]

JESUS FUCK

[IlStefan]

Uboa is your punishment for spending 3 and a hlaf minutes flicking a lightsqitch and uploading it as a youtube video.

[kugotsumin]

it looks like you're pretty much stuck in that place after you stab uboa.

[milleniumbug1222]

Uboa? Real Nightmare Fuel is 3:50! WTF is this? What happened to the player character? Player has to restart the game? Is this making any sense in-game? What is the guy in the background doing? Holding five volcanoes?

[GaleBlon]

@milleniumbug1222 No character just need to wake up

[MichaelCox]

Moral of the story, don't repeatedly murder your girlfriend, I guess?

[Bloddyfriend]

I want to play this game, but it looks pretty fucked up

[BronzeAnkh]

I don't get it, where was the scary?

[DragonReploidZero2]

@BronzeAnkh it's not scary anymore because everybody knows about it.

But if you were to play the game and had no idea this would randomly happen to you it could surprise you.

[hado123]

Nightmare Fuel.... sick..... Nightmare Fuel ;_;

[orico180]

ああああああああああああああああああああああ

[wikiporno]

THIS GAME IS FUCKED!

[RatherWatchThem]

Who replaced the music with vuvuzela? That's not funny, guys!

[LackofEthics]

This video desperately needs an editor. Almost three and a half minutes of going inside and oustide. I'd be okay if it was a minute, but come on.

[SpeedXaaa]

@LackofEthics They're trying to get the Uboa when they shut the lights off in the house. It's about a 1 in 40 or 60-something (somethin' like that...) chance to see it, though, so it may take a while.

You can find a wiki about this game (Yume Nikki). It shouldn't be too hard to find. =3

[LackofEthics]

@SpeedXaaa I don't mean to sound like a dick (awesome excuse) but three minutes? I just think the video could have been shorter. But I guess it could be said that the point of this video is to show how unlikely it is to find the Uboa.

[SpeedXaaa]

@LackofEthics Naaahhh...pffth, you're fine. =P

Oh. I see what you're saying now. My bad. X3

[DoxieVee]

Ahaha, there's a vuvuzela button on this video. Mood dissonance anyone?

[EvaristoH]

@DoxieVee BZZZZZZZZZZZZZUBOAUBOABZZZZZZZ­ZZZZZZZZZUBOAUBOABZZZZZZZZZZZZ­ZZZZ

[ZeroOfBells]

The wardrobe looks a bit retarded.

[vihannes3]

That lights-off music is like a fucking ticking time bomb...

[adorigeru21]

最初は何してるんだ？っと思ったけど、じっと見てたら恐怖がｗｗ­ｗ

びびったマジでｗ

[nutty1777]

what the fuck just happened?

[ryunin5654]

I think I just wet myself. O_O

[Entity4two]

3:26 Bad trip man, VERY BAD F***ING TRIP!!

[DesertShadowWalker]

I've been trying to download this game but I can't get it to work.

Help PLEASE!

[spno1fan]

@DesertShadowWalker

have to change your computer reigion to japanese

[kaip122]

what game is this

[Choochoobird]

Yume Nikki, it's been mentioned in the comments.

[doc105]

Umm What Game Is This?

[Ekalmid]

Yume Nikki.

[HazenKain]

Although it seems he got the result corresponding to the first hypothesis for the 95% of the people that played the game.

[Nikotehwolf]

@HazenKain I think its more like people find meaning in chaos rather then actual meaning.

[HazenKain]

I still can't understand...

1. This game was created thinking a lot about every detail to create some kind of background story for Madotsuki that can only be deduced little by little with theories based on every scenario and npc on the game, which means is one of the most complex games ever made.

or

2. This game was created absolutely with every bizarre thing the author could find for RPG maker despite the meaning of it all and he just wanted to make a creepy weird game.

[RoyStorey]

I think there's a large chance that it was pretty much #2, but some of the theories work so well that it might as well be #1 either way.

[Kijiriko]

@HazenKain

As poorly translated from Kikiyamas website when talking about the games features...

"It is a game to walk around the world of (setting) in the dream of a very dark atmosphere. There aren't a story in particular and the purpose. It is a game only as for walking about."

[Flargenyargen]

lol 1 in 64 chance.

[JenFromMaplestory]

WHY DOES THIS ALWAYS HAPPEN TO ME

[EIoweiss]

When Uboa appears, stuff like the window and the thing on the wall have eerie faces. D:

[Jun123]

What the fuck is that on the background???

Can't figure it out.

[TwosComplement]

That girl probably thought, "Alright, stop turning my damn light off!"

[KHCrazeeXD42]

First time I did this, took me 5 minutes.

Second try, only about 4 clicks.

Third try, about 2 clicks. xD

[Jadiebloop]

3:26

[tweedlebeetles]

The amount of time it took to exhaust every possible combination of commands to get this result is unfathomable. What kind of sick person would torture their players like this? :<

[fratboyfrat]

One bad ass mother fucker. That's for sure.

[YuyuPrincess411]

Is there a version of this game in english? I would love to play it but I don't think I could understand any of those controls. XD (.....are they? I can't read them so I don't know. oo)

[TwosComplement]

Yes, i cant link to it on here though; I got redirected from TV Tropes to the download link... just search for "Yume Nikki" on it.

[YuyuPrincess411]

TV Troupes? Is that a website?...so I just remove the space and add (dot)c0m at the end?

[SimonAndTheBell]

Google works too. Its TV Tropes, btw.

[DevilMayDumbass]

WHAT HAS BEEN SEEN, CAN NOT BE UNSEEN.

[gallantmon8]

I finally got this event after A LOT of tries

[Animewacher121]

What game is this? And what is going on?

[mythrilite]

Yume Nikki

[MayuZane]

@Animewacher121 Yume Nikki, and what's happening is that the girl is exploring her dream world which has suddenly transformed into a nightmare

[tehsilverwolfeh]

...now whenever I see Edward Munch's "The Scream", I'm going to think of this thing.

[culeomew]

;-;

I CAN'T UNSEE IT D':

It's UBOOOAAAAA

[jaynee12345]

*Doesn't get it* ..Why is that scary? what does Uboa do? ._. *Confused~*

[frutillas1995]

A lot of people said this game is supposed to be disturbing... But, has anyone REALLY ever been scared watching/playing?

But I can see why she is the way she is... And why people think she's been raped before. :/

[ItaLuv11]

What I never got was how that was supposed to be a girl in the background of Uboa's world. Am I missing something in the picture here? It looks just like arms sticking out of a...a...an I-don't-even-know-what vomiting up blood (or possibly V8).

[EltBerserker]

GORGEOUS

[zelinkfreak10123]

I didn't get scared XD

[PerniciousHaze]

Every time she switched off the lights I felt myself instinctively looking away and twitching.

[DaRkLoRdZoRc]

It's a sandbox game in its simplest form: You wander around and explore. There's no dialogue, the enemies are more of a bother than anything else since they can't kill you, and there's nothing at all to do except collect 2 dozen abilities and see the ending.

It's not meant to be a standard RPG, a fun RPG, or even an RPG at all, really. It's meant to be a creep-you-the-fuck-out-G.

[NERDYWHIT3BOY]

ohh. well, wow, thanks for the reply.

[zelinkfreak10123]

so a CYTFOG? I HAVE TO HAVE IT! XD

[vihannes3]

Where is it possible to find this?

[DaRkLoRdZoRc]

That's the troubling thing... Information can be found all over. It even has its own wiki. Yes, a Yume Nikki Wiki.

The game itself though? You're lucky if you find a link to download it, and if you DO download it, it won't open unless you do some kind of satanic voodoo unlocking spell on it or something. I've had the game for like 5 months and I STILL can't get it open.

[Tsukiyomaru0]

A vague ending, IMO... But that can be interpreted in many ways.

[kbryant1994]

I'm having trouble with the folders on this game :l I already download the game, and winrar to open the files, but I can't find which folder the game file is in. Can anyone help?

[Armalizilto]

3:26 OMIGOSH! What the...!

[JohnRedWolf87]

This would even give Giygas nightmares!

[TheBoyInBlack]

What gives me nightmares are the thoughts of what Giygas and Uboa's bastard child would look like.

[DaRkLoRdZoRc]

Uboa, Giygas, smile.dog, and Zalgo orgy.

Sleep tight.

[TheBoyInBlack]

...

is it normal to have nightmares while you're still awake

[KiraMakai]

My god, this game is scary! I can't believe something like that could be so frightening!

[AgentMidnight]

My thoughts through this video:

0:00: "okay shes just turning off the lights, big deal"

3:00: "Yawn, still doing it"

3:26: "still doing it, so borin-OH MY WHAT IS THIS I DONT EVEN-"

3:50: "WHAT THE SHIT!"

[xDeathInFirex]

...what the fuck kind of a game is this?

[TheBoyInBlack]

Exploration.

Basically, the entire game is meant for you to interpret. Since there's pretty much no dialogue, you've gotta come up with explanations for what happen on your own.

[Vespene]

The fact that someone found this and that it exists is amazing. Considering this is an obscure doujin game that wasn't very popular, finding something like this makes me wonder what other game secrets people never found out about.

[RivekTheFallen]

uh, this game is insanely popular on 2ch.

[crasheart35]

this game kinda reminds me of japanese horror films

[Natureman22]

NO SHIT

[GigaDager]

Hoooooooh, I flipped my shit.

[PokeEXE]

"...I'm just going to sit out here...and pretend that whole incident never happened..."

[haxbox7]

3:26 OH SHI-

[gallantmon8]

So THAT's what Uboa is! I never knew that :o

[Wilmoire]

I found the fact that the player can stab the girl to that calming tune to be much more disturbing than the Uboa scene.

[NeonGloLyte]

Aww uboa is the cutest thing ever <3

[Jadiebloop]

I NEVER KNEW GIYGAS HAD A SIBLING

[Hitokirifelix]

uboa is one of the few things that can be written in japanese characters but actually means nothing, or something...? ehn.ghdgjygjyrtgy

[yio65]

....

[SuperFlicky]

The thing in the background of the lake looks like a Platypus with a skinny beak.

[OhhhMyAxels]

What does "Uboa" even mean?

[Levinous]

It's its name.

[OhhhMyAxels]

So there's no meaning to the name?

[Levinous]

I'm don't think so... I think people learned the name from the game's files, one simply being called "uboa", and people assumed that that was its name, along with Torinigen, Kyukyu, Ponika, and so on.

[lightshadow]

Anyone, correct me if I'm wrong-- I hear people saying that 'uboa' is portrayed as a death scream in some animations/comics/whatever or something, but I'm not completely sure?

[Moupimoupimoupi]

Uboa is the sound of a scream in japan. Kind of like "Augh".

In other words, Uboa is called Scream.

[HershelPreforms]

AHA.

I SEE A PUN.

NO WAIT. A DOUBLE PUN.

[BlazeReap2]

UBOA is this games Scream huh? Makes sense.
