OMGGGGG THIS IS SO WELL MADEEEE!!! This genuinely looks like an old 90s-2000s kids show!!
Just a very short animation I did for the fun of it! Based on this image.
I JUST GOT TUMBLR ON MY PHONE LETS GOOOOOO
I have a little headcanon that when Wooly used to be a human, he used to bite his nails when he was stressed or just force of habit.
Idk why it just fits
Murder Drones characters in my style! I also added some more details :)))))
Can I just say how much I LOVE the horror in Lacey Games?
I’m just gonna start of with the stalker from Wardrobe (I’m not gonna show a pic because that face FUCKED ME UP for like 2 WEEKS). I love how Ghosttundra doesn’t do the basic distorted face monster stuff, but a realistic face of some fat guy with huge pupils who reminds me of the Ooga booga guy from Spooky Month, and that alone already puts you on edge.
And the execution of that face is also terrifying. The way he hides in shadows all over the place is so creepy but so realistic and really makes you feel trapped and that he could be anywhere. When you’re dressing Lacey up for her picnic and let her outside, for a first-time viewer, you don’t see the stalker hiding in the bushes until he shows up again watching outside her window. The contrast between HIM and Lacey’s cartoony art style is just so unsettling too.
And the rest of the series is horrifying. In Diner, the entire time Lacey has her emotional breakdown with putting all her trauma and her uncle into a meal is so gross and so sad at the same time. And when she goes to serve the customers, the switch between the cartoony style and the hyper realistic imagery, alongside the chewing and slurping sounds in the background, makes that scene all the more disgusting.
That’s all I wanted to say right now, I’m so tired 😴
I HEARD U WANYED QUESTIONS
I DELIVER
whos ur fav character in amanda the adventurer
whos ur fav character in lacey games
whats ur dream job
fav colour??
1. Oh this is a tough one! I love both Amanda and Wooly though! At first, back when the pilot was the only Amanda content, Wooly was my favorite, but now we have 2 official games, Amanda grew on me a LOT and now they’re both my favorite!
2. My favorite Lacey character? Probably Lacey and Rocio (even tho we barely see her)! I just love Lacey’s whole Y2K vibe, her outfits and how she’s used to portray real-life problems lots of women go through. As for Rocio, I love the idea of her adding herself to the website to escape her harsh reality and the whole wire thing she’s got going on, really nice! I also love the idea that she’s watching EVERYTHING going on when a person is on the website, it kinda adds to her character.
3. My dream job is to be a cartoonist or an animator (if I ever learn to animate)!
4. My favorite color is purple! It’s just so nice and relaxing to look at!
Thanks for asking!
The tape begins with a Halloween-themed logo for the show, with the apple now being replaced with a pumpkin and Amanda and Wooly in costumes.
It cuts to Amanda and Wooly in the living room with a few costumes laid out in front of them. Amanda and Wooly notice us and then greet us.
“Hi, friend! I’m Amanda!”
“And I’m Wooly!”
“And today, we’re going trick-or-treating! But first, we need to put on our costumes. Will you help us?”
A few seconds of silence pass before Amanda speaks again.
“Great! Okay, which costume should I wear?”
The screen shows a black cat costume, a spider costume and a lab coat with glasses.
Riley chooses the lab coat and glasses.
After Riley picks a costume, the screen then changes to Wooly’s set of costumes.
“Now, which costume should I wear?”
The screen shows an Angel costume, a wolf costume and a clown costume.
Riley chooses the angel costume.
After picking a costume for Wooly, the screen switches back to Amanda and Wooly in their costumes.
“Thanks for your help!” Amanda says. “Now, let’s go trick-or-treating!”
The tape changes to Amanda and Wooly walking on the sidewalk in the neighborhood with their bags full of candy, the houses behind them swaying in a continuous manner with their lifeless eyes.
“Oh man, we got so much candy! I can’t wait to eat it when we get back!” Amanda cheers, jumping up and down.
“Don’t eat so much though, or you’ll get a tummy ache.” Wooly adds.
“You shouldn’t be talking.”
“What’s THAT supposed to mean?!” Wooly asks, his face red with embarrassment.
After walking for a bit, the two notice a mysterious house, its design much different from the other houses near it. It almost looks abandoned, with broken windows and moss growing on it. Intimidated by the house’s appearance, the two walk up the stairs to the front door and ring the doorbell.
No one answers.
“Hello?” Amanda calls, knocking on the door. “Anybody home?”
A few seconds pass.
“Well, looks like they’re gonna get tricked tonight!” Amanda says with a smirk on her face as she opens the door to the abandoned house.
“Wait, Amanda!” Wooly calls, grabbing her by her sleeve. “You’re not ACTUALLY thinking of going in there, a-are you?”
“Of course I am!” Amanda replies. “Plus, it’s good to face your fears. Come on!”
Amanda runs inside the house as Wooly nervously follows, fidgeting with his hands as he walks inside.
The screen switches to Amanda and Wooly standing inside the center of the house, with 3 doors in front of them.
“Which door should we go in first?” Amanda asks.
Riley thinks for a moment before they point to the left door.
“Good choice. Let’s go!” Amanda cheers as she opens the door and both her and Wooly walk inside while holding each other’s hand.
The screen changes to what looks like an old living room, with a busted couch, an old TV, paintings on the wall and a radio on a table beside the couch.
“I’m already getting a bad feeling about this…” Wooly mutters, lightly tugging at his wool.
“Oh, be quiet.” Amanda scold him. “It isn’t even that bad! Just a little dirty.”
Riley notices the radio and points to it, saying “What about that radio?”
Amanda and Wooly notice them pointing to the radio and walk towards it. “I wonder what it’s gonna play.” Amanda says. It’s clear she’s having a lot of fun being in this house…
She curiously adjusts the frequency on the radio, hoping for something to play-but so far, it’s only been static.
“I think it’s broken…”
“You don’t say,” Wooly responds, examining the radio. “It’s all busted.”
Suddenly, the radio begins playing a news report, startling both Amanda and Wooly.
“It’s been over 2 months since 8-year old Cara Matthews has mysteriously gone missing and there are still no leads as of now. From the information that was given by her parents, Matthews was last seen watching one of Kensdale’s most beloved programs, Amanda the Adventurer. Some detectives believe that she was kidnapped, however there is no evidence for that statement. As far as we know, Matthews will never be found.”
The audio turns into static once again, as Amanda and Wooly stand there with horrified expressions on their faces.
“Not again…” Amanda mutters under her breath as static fills the screen. “I’m… I’m sorry…”
“A-Amanda…?”
Suddenly, the static completely stops and Amanda reverts back to her usual upbeat persona.
“Well, I’ve seen enough of this room,” she says. “Let’s get outta here.”
The screen switches back to the center of the room.
“Where should we go next?” Amanda asks.
Riley points to a set of stairs near the 3 doors.
“Good choice. Let’s go upstairs!”
As they’re walking up the stairs, Wooly notices that Amanda is holding his hand much tighter than before.
“A-Amanda, you’re squeezing my hand…”
She doesn’t respond.
“Amanda!”
“W-what?” She finally responds.
“You’re squeezing my hand.”
“Oh.”
Amanda quickly lets go of Wooly’s hand, still facing forward.
“You’re not… scared, are you? He asks.
“What? No, no, no!” Amanda responds, swatting her hand in disagreement. “M-maybe a little…” she mutters under her breath, but loud enough for Wooly to hear it.
“I-it’s okay, I’m scared too.” He says. “But we can face our fears together!”
She doesn’t respond.
Finally, the two reach the top and enter a pitch-black room.
“Dang it, it’s WAY too dark in here!” Amanda complains. “Do you have something we can use to light up the room?”
Suddenly the lights go out in the library right after she asks that question.
“Oh shit, not THIS again!” Riley complains.
They walk around the library for a bit while also hearing Amanda and Wooly’s complaints.
“I don’t like the dark…” Amanda whines.
“Don’t worry, they’ll find something! I’m sure of it.” Wooly reassures her.
After a few minutes of walking around the pitch-black library, Riley spots a light coming from behind one of the printers. Peeking behind it, they find a flashlight that’s already been turned on.
“Thank god.” Riley rasped as they head back to the TV, seeing Amanda and Wooly shivering in fear. They place the flashlight on top of the TV and watch it get absorbed into the cartoon.
“Thanks!” Amanda cheers as she begins pointing the flashlight to the center of the room. The light illuminates the room, showing a broken-down bedroom, with cobwebs decorating the walls and corners and a door in one corner. In another corner of a room is a bed with torn-up pictures beside it.
“Oh, this is…” Amanda mumbles, but doesn’t finish her sentence.
A few seconds pass before Riley notices the pictures beside the bed. Amanda and Wooly walk up to them and begin examining the torn-up pieces of the photos.
“I recognize some of these faces…” Wooly says, squinting at the papers.
“Hey, Amanda, can I see your photos?”
She doesn’t respond.
“Amanda?”
Wooly shuffles over to her to see her with a horrified look on her face, holding one of the pictures.
“What are you looking at-“ Wooly suddenly stops.
The screen changes to a closer view o the picture Amanda is holding.
It seems to show a young girl with braids and a black hoodie, but her face is blurred out. Riley notices that the girl in the picture looks familiar, like they’ve seen her before.
It finally comes to them. That girl is..
Rebecca Colton.
“This is… me?” Amanda whispers, her eyes only focused on the warped photo of the little girl as the screen begins to fill with red static.
“M-maybe it’s best to get out of here…” Wooly chuckles nervously, turning around. “Come on, Amanda. Let’s go ba-“
The exit to the room is gone. All that’s left is the door in the corner. Wooly grabs Amanda by the hand and runs and opens the door-but instead of another room, it’s a long corridor with another door on the other side.
“What the…”
“What’s happening…?” Amanda asks nervously, still holding on to the photo.
“I don’t know…” Wooly responds. “Look! There’s a door on the other side. Maybe that’s the exit.”
But once they reach it, the room inside is just the same long corridor.
Each door they go through causes the hallway to be even more warped, with twisted walls and darker hallways.
“I don’t wanna be here anymore…” Amanda whimpers, clutching onto Wooly’s hand.
“Me neither…” Wooly adds.
But it doesn’t matter. These hallways are an endless loop. There’s no way to escape.
A few minutes of running through endless hallways pass before the two eventually collapse in exhaustion.
“There’s gotta be a way out of here,” Wooly mutters. “We can’t be stuck here, r-right?”
“It’s hopeless.”
Wooly turns around to find Amanda curled up and shaking, the photo still in her hand as sniffing and muffled winces can be heard from her.
“We’re never getting out of here…”
A minute of nothing passes, the two sitting on the floor in the endless hallway, with Wooly fidgeting with the handles of his candy bag. The only sound that can be heard is Amanda’s crying.
Then, in a choked, raspy voice, she says:
“I want my dad…”
Then the tape falls out of the VCR.
“Poor girl,” Riley thinks. “She doesn’t deserve this…”
Author’s note: This was so much fun to write!! It’s WAY longer than the last, sorry about that. Anyway, thanks for reading and I hope to make more of these in the future!
I just came up with a hc that Mami Tomoe is pretty buff cuz of the amount of work she does and now I draw her like that
My elegant, strong, beautiful girl boss 💜💜💜
Okay, so this is just me guessing what's gonna happen in the third ATA game based on the stuff we got in ATA 2.
First off: where will the third game take place?
At the end of the true ending, Riley goes down a hatch which leads deeper into the library (idk why a library would need that). My prediction is that whatever place we find ourselves in, it's gonna be more focused on Hameln. I've seen theories that where we're going will lead to something related to Hameln's cult and the rituals and stuff like that. It might be an escape hatch, or it might lead to something else. I think that we might be going to where Kate and her group were talking about the tapes-maybe something like a detective-like area with a billboard with different photos and stuff like that.
Next theory: What will the tapes be about?
To get the true ending, you can't help Amanda and Wooly take down the possum and when that happens, they get REALLY pissed at you. Amanda even says "Why didn't you help us? I TRUSTED you!" which probably means that we've lost both of their trust. When we put in the tape we took with us in whatever TV we can find at where we'll be, Amanda and Wooly will definitely NOT be happy to see us- they'll probably be like "Oh, it's you." in hateful tone or something like that. They'll probably be WAY more impatient at us than before. I think that we'll probably have to try and gain their trust back, maybe by getting things for them, connecting with them in some sort of way, etc.
Next theory: Who on EARTH is Wooly?
This damn sheep has me in a chokehold with the very little amount of lore we get from him specifically. So far, we've gotten some flash frames from him when we type in "horror" in the story tape, and it seems to be a reference to the butcher- with all of the meat imagery. A lot of people think he's Sam, another kid we don't know, an Ai program, a literal sheep who gained sentience, etc. I, for one, think that he's a Hameln employee who was transported to the cartoon world in the same way Rebecca was to monitor her and keep her on track. Think about it. He tries to keep Amanda on track with the show, he tries to make the show seem like a normal kids cartoon and-the most notable- the tapes he's present is has the Hameln logo appear at the end. However, I will say that even though Wooly might most likely be a Hameln employee, he's still suffering like Amanda. For example, as I mentioned, when we type in "horror" in the story tape when Wooly asks us what our favorite kind of story is, we get several flashes of meat which might be flashes of Wooly's trauma and at the end, he starts hyperventilating. I feel like maybe he was a Hameln employee but messed up real bad at one point and as punishment, Hameln gave him the same treatment as Amanda-have him suffer in the tapes. Another thing worth noting is that there's a secret tape in ATA 1 in the files which features Wooly sitting in a room. We see this same room again in the announcement video for the second game, where it seems like he's being held captive, with a chicken holding him at gunpoint and him at the end begging for him to be let go to someone. I think that he's being used to monitor Amanda while also being tortured in some way- it might be like Hameln saying "This is your punishment, but you can still be useful to us" or smth like that. To sum it up, I think he's a Hameln employee who screwed up and as punishment, he got transported to the cartoon world to monitor Rebecca to be useful to Hameln while also suffering with his own problems.
That's it for my bigger theories! Now onto my smaller ones...
First off: the door symbolism. Whenever we see the door (which is probably the portal to the cartoon world like we see in the meat ending in the first game) in Amanda's POV, the entrance is a deep red which might symbolize her thinking of the cartoon world as hell. However, when we see the door from Wooly's POV, the entrance is white; maybe he sees it as heaven, or purgatory, or what it actually is- the portal to the cartoon world? It makes sense because Amanda has the mind of a child, so she wouldn't see the door as what it is, but something much worse and Wooly, who most likely has an older mind, would see it for what it is.
Well, that's it for my theories so far! I'll most likely make more of these posts.
Y’know I feel like since we got a Wooly monster revealed in the true ending of ATA 2, ATA 3 is gonna be a pretty Wooly-centric game that’ll show more of his sinister side.
Idk why I just get that feeling.
