why was this game so damn scary


Is this how a typical Simpsons episode is? I don't really watch the Simpsons.

It's been a while but I could never beat this game.
Bartzilla level usually fucked me up.

Highest grade I think I ever got was a B.

The only levels that were hard as shit were the Maggie Temple sections, fucking platforms, traps everywhere and demons wrecking your shit
And you had only one chance before finding a page again, they get rarer and rarer with time.

The difficulty gets insane, but I loved the game.

So is this a Simpsons thread or a horror vidya thread?

>Maggie temple
Fuck I completely forgot about that one. I at least manage to beat the barzilla a few times, I don't think I ever managed to beat maggie temple.

Horror.

Worst part of Bart's Nightmare was fucking running around on the street. Hated that part. Most of the minigames were pretty fun, especially the one where you're running around killing Itchy and Scratchy. FUCK MAGGIE'S TEMPLE HOLY SHIT

HI THERE

This?

Easy Baby-Mode:
- Virus hunter

Normal:
- Bartman
- Itchy & Scratchy stage 1
- Bartzilla stage 1

Kinda Challenging:
- Bartzilla stage 2

Kinda hard:
-Itchy & Scratchy stage 2

What the fuck am I even supposed to do?:
-both Indiana Jones stages

I don't understand.

This shouldn't be as unsettling as it is

why not both?

Literally satan:
- navigating through the overworld without getting your shit kicked in by everything

Why is it so frustrating going through all this

Am I the only one who thought Bart had a Metroid sucking on his head?

Itchy and Scratchy levels are the easiest but I agree with this ranking.

Nah, the virus hunter stage is by far the easiest. Most enemies can't even kill you. And it's over really quickly.

only threat you have in the virus one is the fucker that throws the little tiny dots at you.

Itchy and scratchy ones can be cheesed pretty badly, but can still be challenging if you're not careful.

>suddenly a gang of bullies take me with them
wh-what do they do with Bart after they take you with them?

It's just a poster ofrece human anatomy on his wall, what am I missing?

window

The window lad

What is creepy about that? I just noticed it.

it is a mystery

Genesis version scarier. Fixed lighting

>anatomy chart
Hey that's from blood

It's not really scary when you think of the context of the game
Bart stayed up late to finish a paper he procrastinated on, and he just went to bed
Getting a Game Over just means you get an F on the paper

I never understood how this game even functioned as a child. It seemed the game was bugged and would literally load a random stage from the game and each stage either had no ending or was unbeatable, so you played until you got the kitchen scene where everyone's disappointed or until you turned the system off. I felt like it had no direction whatsoever. Even in the levels where I feel I was doing good, they just went on forever until randomly deciding to change stages?

Seasons 1-9 are good but everything else is retarded.

I wish fxx would actually rerun in order.

It's scary because there's no music for a while and everyithing is black and white except for bart
It gives you the feeling that something is off and something may jump in your face

>there's no music
>literally this song blasts with the black and white scene

youtube.com/watch?v=DHTZyjTCjGI

im not sure but this song unnerved me

What do you mean there's no music

You were just bad at videogames as a child user, re try it or something

...

I've never seen a man


eat so many corndogs


I can just imagine the heart burn and nausea after that

My bad, i haven't played the game in ages

It has literally been 6+ years since I've seen that

Dino bart is the biggest bull shit in this game. Why is the platforming shit? Pig Bart and Baby Bart at least had the platforming work.

Pig Bart is at least easy overall compared to Baby Bart and Dino Bart

The waterslide stage was the absolute biggest bullshit, though (well, after the instant death part of the roulette). Unless there was some way to know which path to take at each fork and I just never figured it out.

I too watch The Best Gamers livestreams

Can we talk about horror games now?
What game has scared you the most?

this

...

Zelda 2's game over screen always spooked me as a kid. I lost track of remaining lives rather easily.

This is why you must read the game manual before starting nigga.

>What is next step for the horror genre?
VR jump scares. You know it's true. Devs only want their games to be YouTuber fodder.

Even games with lots of potential like Alison Road are just jump-scare simulators.

Nobody gives a fuck about lurking horror, or the grotesque (in its proper meaning), or metafiction, or being hunted, or anything creative that drove the horror genre to this point. It's all just monster closets.

This picture sums up everything wrong with horror right now.

Obligatory post

>What is next step for the horror genre?

Walk around until you get the screamer.

Ta-da.

Where's the user that posts links from the /x/ sticky?

Making them cute yet still spooky.

What is that?

What's this from?

Yomawari: Night Alone
One of the Ace Attorney games, don't know which one, certainly not the first or second one though.

Characters from Phoenix Wright, idk scene because I'm playing trilogy first time through.

>injecting moe bullshit into horror
Thirsty NEETs please go.

didnt scare me faggot.

Angry Joe reviewed a VR horror game that worked a bit like this. I don't remember the name but google it to find the review.

Ace Attorney Investigations (the first,) case 1-3, The Kidnapped Turnabout. I don't know why it's so scary.

Dreadhalls

Just looked it up. Looks like Unreal 1.

Can we just have a Forbidden Siren type horror game again please? No screamers, just tense as fuck stealth horror.

I love how after all these years this still scares people, you can really spot the newfags lmao

Huh you just reminded me i need to play Forbidden Siren
Fuck those time trial missions
I know the game is also stealth but come on

>wanting moeshit in horror
this is why people hate weebs, you know that right?
