I had the strangest dream last night about my childhood friend who recently passed away. We were playing Legos in his basement like we used to do as kids and when I turned around, he was gone. The house was empty and silent, everything was so quiet and still. I started to smell smoke and hear screams from upstairs.

Think this is the closest thing I have to final results - didn't get a last screenshot before it closed down so missing a few, but...

It was an honor to boop with y'alls. From the onset I didn't expect to aim for completionist streak but I'm happy to have given so many boops and received as many in kind.

Maybe some of the best boops are the friends we made along the way.

Shoutouts to @theconstellationsinyourskin, @thesleepyhermit, @night-time-anxi-tea, @tdmtdmtd for being at the top of my activity page, and mentions to @mizuniatora, @todayislotsoffun, @a-fandom-trashdump, @wermonastring, @moonlitnight, @shitposting-hobbits-to-gallifrey, @dauntleroy, @pastachip and @human-3.

There's so many more of y'all but list will get too too long so fast. Appreciate y'alls tho for sure <3

COOLMATH GAMES ARG

yes, you read that right, that one website you used to use during school has an ARG in progress. I only found this out yesterday thanks to a TikTok by six1four7

so naturally I went to the cmg website to see if it was true and sure enough

The website has cracked and clicking on it takes you to this webpage

There is a chance you click it and go to the URL /where-am-i where the page name is changed and a title is added

Decoding the Morse and the Polybius give the same phrase: IMLOST.

Decoding the binary you get

Hello? Can you hear me?

I'm looking for someone.

I hear strange noises.

Please, help me.

So without knowing what to do, I think of FNaF and check the code of the page to find nothing. So I go back to TikTok and look for the CoolMath Games ARG. Only finding three other videos, and one of them had an idea

Nat here decided to check the CMG Instagram, which is the only place that covers what's happening to the website. So, checking the Instagram, turns out this started October 17th with a post about finding an old folder in the office next to them. I can't show it because I used my video on the TikTok from earlier, but I have screenshots from the files within the video.

The rest are printed out emails I didn't feel like trying to get screenshots of, so if you want to, go for it.

From these documents, we find that CMG was working on a project #675,

"It's a fun, classic game players would love", "The main character would be... in a world of black and white."

They wanted to give the game some color, but had trouble lighting it up. They wanted to add a monster to the game, that would take place in a forest, with a child protagonist. The game planned to have balloons and puzzles related. The game was in fact finished, however the developer didn't want to take out something the team wanted to get rid of, so the team scrapped the project and moved onto another developer.

After the list of emails, there are some screenshots of the game.

However, I want to focus on the page with the text "can not proceed", if you don't recognize the face in there, that is the monster from the CMG version of hangman. Now I've been trying to connect the dots of this game to hangman for you, but if you don't see the similarities, don't worry, we'll get to that later. Because the next day, we got another update.

And the next day

And the next day...

And then some time goes by with nothing. And by some time I mean three days. Then we get a crack

Hell, even earlier today there was another update. The prototype is still there in the dropbox.

Got all that? Great! Now I wanna show you the connections from this to CMG Hangman.

In CMG Hangman, you play as a child in a black and white forest with faded balloons. It is labeled as a classic where you solve the puzzle

And when you start the game, you encounter not just a monster, but the same monster from earlier.

My prediction is that the game in the ARG is an "earlier" version of Hangman. But I didn't have much else to solve or do, so bored, I decided to play the game pinned on the insta, not thinking of anything.

Everyone meet Coolmath Games: The Game (spoiler warning, good game go play!)

The story goes as follows. You, an intern, are arriving at your first day in the CMG office. After giving everyone smoothies brought to you from the Hangman kid something goes wrong and the game the team was planning to launch later explodes with game fragments going everywhere. It's up to you to grab at least 3 fragments and put together a game of your own. The way you do that is by doing puzzles around the office. One of those puzzles is somewhat 3D and well, it looks like this:

what's interesting is that this puzzle is right in completed right next to Vicky, the one controlling social media for CMG

Does that face look familiar, it's Maddy, the one who found the prototype. But hey maybe it's nothing I mean you are allowed to use a cartoon version of yourself as your profile picture sure, and maybe they weren't allowed to use real names in the game. Sure. But then we go to the story of the game over on Cleo's computer, and when you ask for the name of the game, you get this.

And since it's a text game, I'm just gonna type out the important part of the game out on here instead of using screenshots.

You find yourself in a small, dark cabin. A pervasive smell of pine and mud fills your nostrils, and a sharp, cold wind crashes against the rickety windows. Behind you is a hallway, on your right is a hatch leading to the basement, and in front, the main entrance. (main entrance > start walking > head left > Camp out here. It's better than that creepy cabin) You set Camp - leaning up against a sturdy oak, your legs pulled up into your jacket. You slowly allow yourself to fall asleep, only to awaken in a familiar place... [you're back at the cabin]

The second page of the first Instagram post says as follows:

"The developer decided it would be fun to 'punish' the player for not exploring the different routes. If the player decides to always take the middle routes, they will get no puzzles."

To me the fact that these two things are so close together feel important, and, but maybe the game is unrelated, but this is where I am now. Sitting in my bedroom at 2:48am, finally finishing this long text post about the Coolmath Games ARG, asking for help solving it. If there's another update later today, I'll update my post, most likely by reblogging it or making a new post and linking this. Who knows.

okay so I was working on a Mario related project and I was scrolling through the Mario wiki and ended up looking at Super Mario Bros. Deluxe and finding this photo

I saw this and without a second thought in my mind I went

hey, this could be a reaction image

so I make it transparent

and cleaned it up

then decided hey, why not color it

and that's how we got here, I don't know what to do with this, so I'm posting it to Tumblr

use it as discord emojis/stickers, a reaction photo, whatever, no credit needed because I was just bored

Holy shit

HOLY SHIT

COOLMATH GAMES ARG

Part 3 - I was fucking right > last post

Another new post was uploaded to the CMG Instagram AS WELL AS a new game to the CMG website AND a message from the CMG Team

Let's start with the Instagram post.

It's nothing too extraordinary, just a photo of the prototype on the homepage. But where the crack was is now a message from the team.

Which takes you to a blog with the URL "burn-after-reading", the title of the page is "The Secret Has Been Uncovered". And the name of the upload is "Read This Before They Take It Down!"

It's Maddie. Talking about everything that happened and that they found. But as I read through it, other than a summary of what we already know, there's also things that we didn't know but are interesting to take note. Like how, since day 2 of the post, they felt like there was some sort of monster lurking the office. Or on Day 6 when they tried to get the game running themselves, the last line was to sleep with one eye open. But Day 8, today, they upload the game, the post, and end the message with "Use the clues found on this blog, look for the words that stand out. This is the key to the whole thing! Seek the truth and you shall find it."

If you don't want me to spoil the game and go try it yourself, here's a link to the game and on to the post.

For those who don't care about spoilers, get ready.

In the blog there are quite a few words bolded and italicized, this list includes: Search, Monster, Found, Myself, Escape, and Darkness. Starting the game, there's something broken down in the bottom right.

The story is that the player was in the middle of the forest with some other people, left for a minute, and when you came back they were gone. Going straight forward, you see the Hangman Monster and then get eaten by him. The choice before there is a hat that looks like yours.

"Huh, this hat looks a lot like mine. I don't remember anyone in the group having a hat like mine..."

Right before that, there were some popped balloons. Going left or right anywhere, there are two things you can click, the main object, and a bug after you solve the main thing. Both give you balloons, but the bugs give you glitchy balloons. Getting all the balloons, glitchy and not, you get a choice of path

Going left, you see the monster, not just the face, the entire Hangman Monster. It has something to say.

This strange forest is something I once called my home. Yet when I descend further, I see things are not as they seem. This forest is like no other; we cannot stay. There is no other solution. Do not fear me, I want to become your friend. Perhaps we can escape together.

The monster's balloons lift him from the forest, and so do yours and after a few more words, the monster says join me and the screen fades to black. You do in fact have to refresh the page to do anything again.

Going right, the balloons make you float away like normal... like if you didn't get all the glitchy balloons. You are then given a hint to look deeper. A very... subtle... hint

You actually see the color change as it's being written, or, typed, I guess. The next button text changes to "Find Me?" and then you restart after clicking it. One last thing to note is the instructions of the game.

I have nothing to say about them, but anyway, I thought I'd bring it up anyway. Also, I feel like the name is some kind of code, but I'm not too sure what code if it is.

So there you go, the entire prototype, if there's another Instagram update or anything like that I'll make another post but this is it for now. For those who don't want to spend the time trying to solve the bugs I'll list them here: (sights, descend, other, appear, become, together)

COOLMATH GAMES ARG

(part 2)

just kinda a small update from earlier -- my prev post

A new post was made on the CMG Instagram

Nothing really new to really build off of, just a warning from the original developer. I mean, the game did cause another person to go missing (if I'm reading into that correctly). But a warning from the developer isn't too out of the ordinary for an ARG so...

whats your opinion on luigis mansion 2 being remastered for switch

idk it's like. it's kinda cool

it's just, there's already LM3 on switch and like, does it need a remaster already

i mean be honest who's even gonna play it like c'mon nintendo

if you can't tell yet this entire post is sarcastic, i still have this saved from when they announced LM2 originally

so my opinion? once it gets released and i have it on switch i'm not gonna need any other game on my switch

unless there was a PVZ remaster released for it later on...
