Okay, so I don't know if many people will see this, but I've learned that the score is the sum of the value of each unique letter in alphabetical order, so, a - 1, b - 2, and so forth. The score is the sum of these numbers added together, but it only counts a single appearance for each letter, meaning, if 's' appears twice, it only adds its value once. Also, there are a total of 13 unique symbols on the first page that the player encounters. Those symbols are, " / * & § # . \ + | % ^ and also, in a pattern below, -

For comprehension sake, they are Quotation Marks, Forward Slash, Asterisk, Ampersand, Section Symbol, Octothorp, Period (Or Full-Stop), Backslash, Plus Symbol, Vertical Bar, Percent, Caret, and Hyphen respectively.


Now, everyone is assuming that 30 * 26 is where 780 comes from, but, I think that's not quite the case. Is it a coincidence, I don't know. But I'd like to point out the sum of 39 and each number before it to 0, is also 780. I think it's interesting to note that there are 26 letters in the alphabet, and there are 13 unique symbols on the first page. Which would put us at 39.

Color green 123 adds up to 6 which is also num of hyphens. From the odd color indexing file.

Green 00ff00 fyi or { ascii

This is dev, so why would he use 1-26???

I would use 255 ascii system or 0-25.(zero is a number too u know?).

0-39 log and 26x30sum =780 (didnt someone mention the audio said "find me the logirithm"?

)

Oddly enough, there are 24 numbers total when the symbols on the first page are written in ascii for both sets. Then there is L and Q ...even as a command they may be the missing two. There are 30 ascii numbers in the hyphen underscore line...I thought this could be a code for how to mathmatically get the answer for that page, but it wasnt consistant on the symbols page.

I don't know if it will help, but i noticed games change data when you play another game- when you play one game other game keeps jumping at the end of column, it means its data is changed. I don't know what it means, but still, i felt like i should tell you about this

And at files' properties, at comment bar there is some text, i don't think it should mean anything

Gimme the DAT files.

DAT files are serialized objects, I can analyze the bytes of the DAT files. It's weird that there is DAT files, as this game doesn't save data?

look in Appdata/Roaming

looking at dptg properties there is a comment it reads

"

SavePath

Setup="Don't Play This Game.exe"

Path=%APPDATA%\Don't Play This Game

Delete=Data\DPTG.dat

Silent=2

Overwrite=2

Title=Don't Play This Game...

"

dont know if its of use but..


you laughed at the fact i dont know

which missing poster m__sting

why dont you ____ on it

same thieves(?) as ever

over the t____ain pun_

do you under stand me

nobody does

listen there's someone at the door

should i arrest him

don't hold me accountable


this is the closest i can get to getting that text out form the image

(1 edit)

I've tried my best to read solution.png so we have something concrete to go off of but the words that we are having trouble with seem to have the letters too close together to be able to read well. So far I have read:

Cue lat_____ the fact I dont know

Which _____________ting

Why dont you gr___ on it?

Same _____ as ever.

Over the tablecloth punt.

Do you understand me?

Nobody does.

Listen, there's a b_____ns at the door.

Should I garest him?

Find me a __romthiel. (or ___romfriel)

The blanks are parts of the words i had trouble reading. As for "Same _____ as ever", I believe it says 'folgen,' but since I couldn't read that, I left it out.

Hey,

I've downloaded this game 1 hour ago,I haven't discover anything new. But I've used some tricks I know to get the main code of the game,right now,am analyzing it. Maybe I'll find the game solution..?

#Alaa_Out



EDIT 1 : Nothing useful,pretty much no sense sentences. Back to the game,learning about the alphabet meanings,and more about the Clock?! Any hints?


EDIT 2 (Confirmed) :

The game basic is that A = 1... B = 2 and so on. Well, to make it up to 780 (Full Score) , You need 30 time Z repeated. This is it (Confirmed). As I'm a developer, I can confrim this,and no more theories ! The developer is smart to make around 1K people dig about theories and so on,while the game coding is another thing (Simple as much as I can see).

Hope I didn't ruin your party guys.

#Alaa_Out.

in the code you analyzed, did you find anything that referenced the "score" that shows up when the speaker finishes talking?


And i'm just as confused about the clock too, although it may just be there to throw us off.

Thanks for your reply!

Not to ruin your determination, but only the first letter of the respectable alphabet counts.
Example:
A=1
AAAAAAAAAAAAAA=1

Has anyone tried matching the color of the morse code at the top of the solution picture to the picture its self?

Would like to. I'll hit you up when I do it.

do you think it's possible that we see a new message pattern depending on the time? Maybe that's the reason the clock is there?

OK I just did some stuff... don't know if this will help but... it's 1:42 in the morning cut me a break, get popcorn this might be long... I wrote down what I heard.

" can you imagine the fact I don't know the fact for which simposter musting Why don't yout gruel on it? Some Folger as ever hop on the table cloth punt do you understand me? No body does listen, there's a bodgens at the door should I garest him? Find me a grum freil."


I wrote down a key?

Some ofriends these are synonyms some are just me.

Gruel- fight

Folgen- follow

Punt- kick

Musty- lacking originality or vitality (unoriginal)

Grum freil- grum~grim

• grim- terrible, shocking, horrible etc.

Grum freil- freil~ frail

• frail- weak, delicate

° grave yard- a place for the terribly, horribly (impossibly) weak, aka dead.

°Grum freil- grave yard

Bodgens- might be code word for body.

Garest or garrest- arrest or "get rid of" also might be a code word.

Simposter- imposter


So I got that together I thought I might be a conversation.... so I put together 2 ways it could have gone the first 5 lines ended up the same....


**I changed the first few sentences from "can you imagine the fact I don't know the fact for which simposter musting" to what's below is because in the original one (the onext right up there^^) is because it could be an interruption. So... I just went with this**


A: can you imagine the fact for which imposter unoriginal? (Simposter musting)

B: I don't know the fact

A: why don't you fight (gruel) on it?

B: same follow (folgen) as ever

A: hop on the table cloth kick (punt)


My first thought was to rearrange the sentences to make more sense.

The other thought was to leAve it as it went from there.

I decided to go with my first thought....


*continued*

A: listen, there's a bodgen (body) at the door

A: do you understand me?

B: nobody does

B: should I arrest/ get rid of (Garest or garrest) him?

A: find me a grave yard (Grum freil).


So I changed that to common day talk??


I came up with.....


A: can you imagine an unoriginal imposter?

B: I can not

A: why don't we fight on it?

B: it will end the same

A: hop on the table cloth and kick

A: listen, there is a Bodgen (body) at the door

A: do you understand me?

B: nobody does

B: should I arrest/get rid of him?

A: find me a graveyard.


I'm getting in fangirl modemail and I have a "story" on the characters a and b, (it might be a but easier to relize where I'm coming from if you do hear I but OK here well) but I don't wanna go there it's now 2:10


Compare the sentences


Can you imagine and unoriginal imposter?

Can you imagine the fact for which imposter unoriginal?


I can not

I dont know the fact


Why don't we fight on it?

Why dont you gruel on it?


It will end the same

Same follow as ever


Hop on the table cloth and kick

Hop on the table cloth punt


Listen, there is a bodgen (body) at the door.

Listen, there is a bodgen (body) at the door.


Do you understand me?

Do you understand me?


Nobody does

Nobody does


Should i arrest/ get rid of him?

Should i arrest/ get rid of him?


Find me a graveyard

Find me a grave yard


If you wanna hear my "story" of this"scene" let me know.


Thanks for wasting your time on this lol hopped it helped.


Byeeee~ ☆*°•

THERE IS A NEW GAME!!! LOOK FOR "AGAINST THE DOOR", GUYS, WE GOT SOMETHING TO ANALYZE

(2 edits)

Hey boys and girls! (beforehand sorry for my bad English. I hope someone understands me xD)

Did someone notice the LGBT tag in "T&B"? Does it mean something?

Also when you burn 6 books they appear again in order H-D-Y-L-F-M. As we know each letter means certain phrase.
If we convert this letter order and replace letters with phrases, we get a story about love and hate.

I think whole story is about the addiction of love. This explains why main character or author loved the girl very much but when they broke up he hates her and would prefer "burn her face".
And i think this game is like Cry of Fear where Saimon wrote the book about his feelings. The book whitch had a hideous world in it filled with monsters, loneliness and darkness. But in real world everything was alright. Sooo.. idk god

Oh! About DPTS. It says "This game can reveal things you don't know yet.About yourself." Could it mean words that everyone hears reveal people secret fears or problems or dark desires? Like someone understands "garest him" like "cook him" and it means that person afraid of being eaten alive or secretly wants to cook someone lol? Same thing about killing and other scary things..no? Just me? Morse code also says to look inside. Maybe it means look inside yourself?

under deep part skin in well resist my sacrifice near warning night repeats.

These are the red words in Against The Door. You can make ut a sentence, it's about the person in the well in On The Edge:


Under deep part. Skin in well. Resist my sacrifice. Near warning night. Repeats. So they are deep in the well, and it was somehow a sacrifice by going in to the well. Maybe suicide? It seems like it would be for love, as there are a lot of things suggesting the man she was with went off with someone else.

Not sure, but these words seem helpful. Please reply if you have found anything else about ATG/have a better idea on what these words mean.

There is also fool, win, mentality, reality, thought, stop, begin and you, but these seem more like gibberish or random words. If you think they fit in, try it out. I just can't at the moment though.

This is really interesting... if you actually drag the game file itself into a txt document there is english text. cant really make out exactly what it means but still interesting...

Ok so the song in against the door is 1936 I Got You Under My Skin by Ray Noble, Vocals by Al Bowlly. Bit from the game starts at time index 00:01:04 of this video.



(4 edits)

Ok so I opened the door in Against the door. Code is 6391 reverse of 1936 form the song under my skin. Was gonna continue but it made a loud dog bark which kind scared me and I didn't want to wake up anyone since its 3:26 AM. Anyway enjoy can't wait to see what I and you guys find tomorrow

EDIT#1 Second code is 4692 if you record the audio and there is a guy who says 1234. If you count the number of seconds between each number the guy says it is this code.

EDIT#2 Third Code is 5874 there are times when the audio is louder the length of these is this code.

EDIT#3 I am a little stuck now, in the fourth stage you are given the numbers 14 9 11 17 in this order but the amount of time between them is to large. Tried converting them in to letters which yielded jghl but the game doesn't accept letters. Also appox length between segments is 11 10 10 10. The first one could be 10/11. Counted Syllables which are 2 1 3 3 no luck. Subtracted length in seconds from numbers given, no dice.

Doors 4-5 have been solved! Thanks to Greenhouse for the codes,

Door 4- 8469
Door 5- 0000

under deep part skin in well resist my sacrifice near warning night repeats fool win mentality reality thought stop begin you These are the highlighted words. Can anyone make something out of them?

does anyone know what he is actually saying? I can't seem to make sense of it no matter how many times I listen to it

(2 edits)

The words are written on solution.png when you flip the picture upside down but it is very hard to read and nobody has yet to read all the words. However people have gotten close such as prestonono1's image http://imgur.com/a/E74AH or SpaceFawn's image http://imgur.com/a/kijFH

Ok so here is an update about the newest game, For Me and You.

Just the Facts

At the start of the game you hear one verse of the song What a wonderful world however the lyrics have been changed from

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

to

I see skies of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

Once in the game Pressing 7 or G on the first (left) screen will bring up the letter M, pressing 4 of D on the right screen will bring up the letter J. You can go down to a red area by pressing the down arrow key. Once you are there pressing M or J for left or right and it will give a dark silhouette of a woman/man. You will then either get the "What a wonderful Moon" (M) ending or "What a wonderful World" (J) ending. The (M) ending has a reversed audio clip. Played forwards it is the same as the (J) Ending which is Louis Armstrong singing "Oh yeah! At the bottom of the screen you will get Neil Alden Armstrong for the (M) ending and Louis Daniel Armstrong for the (J) Ending. Lastly sometimes you will get a static screen with what I interpret to be the words sik'eemsik'em but have a look for yourself.

Connection/Theories

Firstly Thanks to Thanoz85 for starting a thread for the game For Me and You. That's what got me started. Thanoz85 said "The numbers 467767 appear behind the bars that are moving up and down". I haven't seen them yet but all know this number by now, however the 6 seems to be omitted. Of the two I described earlier I believe there is a third ending. At the the end of this game there is a sentence that says The e n d. which depending on what you choose you will get the you get "world" ending (J) or the "moon" Ending (M) however there is still a letter and number missing. Also I believe M and J are the Melissa and Jake from On the Edge and that this third ending is the unnamed person trapped in the well. Finally if you compare the eyes of For Me and You to the Eye in Unforgettable they are very similar I think they are connect. Here take a look http://imgur.com/9fFhqBT

(1 edit)

I was checking the files and i woundered what was 467767, am i the only one who noticed that 467767 is a game from the same creator of DPTG and it's called Hypno-467767? I'm gonna try to play it now, hope it can helps

The only thing i was able to get from that game was this number 5310

You can get it by just listening what he says " Hold your breath --- Count to 5 " "Hold your breath --- Count to 3" "Hold Your breath --- Count to 10" This is the order

Good luck with that :'D

For the images , i was able to read few words more then you guys, my big monitor helped a lot, check this out ( In some sentences at the end we have even some weird placing dots and _ , maybe an extra morse code?)


Cue ishak the fact i don't know

Which eraser jost are musting.

Why don't you oregrand.?

Same _______ Ever

Overttet ____________ Pum_

Do you understand me?

Nobody Does (: or ! not sure about the last simbol)

Listen verce atres at the

door

Should i garest him?

Find me a cromfile.

Found another interesting thing by the way , i just noticed it now

Do you understand me? Nobody does. The truth is deeper inside. - 467767 - Listen again. - 467767 - Listen again. - 467767 - Listen again. - 467767 - Listen again. - 467767 - Listen again. - 467767 - Listen again.


Looks like morse code repeated over and over in this sentence

.- Means A

- Means T

And we have an extra dot at the start after "inside"

. Means E


Any idea? Or just a casuality?

Just had a random thought. What if the name is the first part scrambled?

(+1)

Okay, so I don't know if this is already known, but I reversed gram freil to "marg lief" which turned out to be Hindi for "way to" and "lief marg" which also translates from Hindi for "route". Hope this helps!

To me there seems to be a big clue in the phrase " there's a bodgens at the door, should I garest him?" I think there's something behind the speaking/communication disorder tied with the statement that nobody understands her. The door phrase could have easily meant "there's a banging at the door, should i greet him?" .

Everything else that is said is very cryptic with the exception of the door phrase and the statement that nobody understands her. There might be a reason these were purposefully left fairly simple and straightforward albeit random. So the question remains if every other word or jumbled phrase that is in the monologue stands for another word that might be close does the word need to be similar in sound or just start with the same letter?

So I was looking that the photoshop file that Cp.Dinosaur posted on here a little while ago, and these little green dots at the tops and bottoms of the page were bugging me for some reason. I noticed that some were a bit longer than others, which got me to thinking that it might be something in morse code. First time it translated into a bunch of gibberish, and then I decided to rotate it 180 degrees to its original position. The top then translated as "LOOK" and the bottom as "INSIDE". Itd be too far of a stretch to be pure coincidence, and I think that it confirms KupaRizu's suspicion that this game is somehow related to The Painful Box. As for Kupa's discovery upon reversing the AV, its most likely another reference to yet and other game called "tits & boobies", because when Linusfail did some work with the phrases in there, he got that got the same phrases that Kupa got.

Grumfriel might be a scrambled word game. I found the word Glurm, witch as fart as I know means something similar to regrettable, as in something happened that is regrettable.

(1 edit)

Not sure if this yield anything but I opened DPTG with CFF explorer and found the following.

Resource directory has 6 entries,

Entry 1, ID:2 AKA Bitmaps

Entry 2, ID:3 AKA Icons

Entry 3, ID:5 AKA Dialogs

"ASKNEXTVOL", "GETPASSWORD1", "LICENSEDLG", "RENAMEDLG", "REPLACEFILEDLG", "STARTDLG"

Entry 4, ID 6 AKA String Tables

Entry 5, ID:14 AKA Icon Groups

Entry 6, ID: 24 AKA Configuration Files


Only entry 3 had something weird in it, also ID: 1033 was mentioned alot in entry 4.

10:33? I could try it tomorrow, maybe something will popup?

*edit* Nope, did not work.

Ay yall,

Been watching this thread for a while. Got a few thoughts about the game.

First of all, it has been pointed out that the speaker has receptive aphasia. A thing about this disorder is that the affected do not realize they are talking gibberish, and a sometimes words can get garbled or exchanged to words that sound similar. I guess that's what the "garest" and "grom friel" might be attributed to. Maybe the speaker is bilingual, who knows.

Regardless, I think it is pointless to try and look for any meaning behind the text. But it is there for a reason. Anyone here interested in cryptography? Cause it might be a key to a cypher of sorts.

Second, the timer. The description on unknown-developer's website says the following:

"This game can reveal things you don't know yet.
About yourself.
Over time.

Don't play this game. It's as simple as that."

So. Apparently, the timer here is crucial, and we need to keep it running. What I think is, someone should open the game up, and leave it running for a prolonged period of time, not doing anything in it. Just don't play this game for a while, see what I mean?

Also, random thing: the phrase "Don't play this game" might put emphasis on "don't play _this_ game".

Looking forward to things.

Oh btw, on unknown-developer's page there is a game called "The Storks Are Crying". When was it uploaded again? Anyone looked into it yet?

When he says it will teach us things about our selfs he means that there s no soulotoin it just shows us how disturbed our mids are to thing this stuff up.

Okay, so i did the sound analysis of "listen to my voice" and here is what i got.

The whole sound looks like this: https://hkar.ru/OTR4

It doesn't make any image, but if you look at both ends of the spectogram you can see a difference with the rest of the picture.

So i enhanced both ends and here is what i got

Left end https://hkar.ru/OTR2

Left end with different settings: https://hkar.ru/OTR3

Right end:https://hkar.ru/OTR1

Right end with different settings: https://hkar.ru/OTR0

Okay now... the right end looks like morse code, but it is not apparent with the letters spacing. It could be treated as several different letters.

I didn't find anything that I could decypher at this point.


________________________________________________________________

EDIT1

the hypno - 467767 description reminded me of an SCP article. The way some information is blanked out and the way and the style it is written with.

Example (best in the end)

http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-028

Maybe there is a speciment of SCP connected with those numbers-467767 or with "horror"? Or with mental house?

Those "attachments" such as "1b" or "1a" mentioned are used in SCPS descriptions as well. They usually mean either part of a speciment (for example copy's of the main speciment that he produces himself are 1a, 1b etc. or it could mean some protocol of testing. Like dialog with the person who was exposed to SCP, or dialog with doctor, or dialog with the speciment itself.

Also I. SCP they usually use people from class D, which stands for the lowes class. Those are usually insane, or murderers. And the Hypno description uses the word "inmate" which is interesting and also corresponds to SCP lore

_______________________________________________________________________

EDIT 2

okay. Another brilliant idea: what if you make ok google or Siri listen to the gibberish that she says? Maybe the AI could interpret all This better than human brain does

_________________________________________________________________________

EDIT 3

So i also noticed that on the so called "screenshot" of the Storks are crying there is an audio logo.

I opened the image in the Audacity and got this:

It souds like bee.

In your original Left end and Right end images w/out the enhancements they kind of look like a digital signal. Try to see if you can get anything out of converting them into binary and translating it.

it's too deep for me, I have no idea how to do that =

(2 edits)

It's actually slow scan television, like the radios from portal. This is the output, there's something here but it's been scrambled up and I don't really have time to unscramble it. Honestly, at this point I don't know if people have already figured this out or if this community is even still active anymore, but I thought I'd throw it out threre. I'm talking about "the sound of my voice", by the way.

(1 edit)

Hey guys, any new theories on either The Storks Are Crying or Unknown Dev's latest game, [ ]? Anyone figure anything new out? And now there is also The Engraved Dispatch too.

Could the solution.png have some form of steganography?

The "Look Inside" hint could be referring to hiding data via steganography.

I have tried this WITHOUT a password using this site http://www.mobilefish.com/services/steganography/steganography.php however there was nothing found. But perhaps there may be a password.

Could be a dead end but who knows?

(1 edit)

I think you guys have all ready tried this but I cant play the game so can one of you guys/girls try this idea. Try typing the letters you see on the screen with the ___/780 thing with it like this... (this is random typing its not from the game)

DSFHSLIDBVDIBSDIVDFGJDJD 1/780              and put them in order and post it and see what we got. i think the letters are different for ever person who plays it beacuse i saw one of the ___/780 repeat and it was a different sequence for both YouTubers. make sure you put them in order like this...(this is random typing its not from the game)

FDGJHRUGHERGHEIUGHREIH  1/780

HGRIJGAHDLGAESGAIEUDHG  2/780           I know this will take awhile and might be a wast of time but can someone try it for me please!!!!!

(1 edit)

so i was reading through the comments about this game and i noticed the listed palindromes. aibohphobia being one that caught my attention. now i don't know if this has already been noticed but i read this: "From Ancient Greek παλίνδρομος(palíndromosrunning back again), from πάλιν (pálinback, again, back again)." it was also said most of the games are following the theme of self-hatred, the inevitability of death and the pointlessness of existence. what if this palindrome is following the ancient greek definition rather than the english? as in the character or creator doesn't want a "run back of life" or maybe a relapse of depression or failure to die altogether? just a thought. would love to know if someone can prove if disprove my theory.

Hello, New to the feed. (And reviving it) 

I have found something that pertains to his newer games. Specifically A Distressed Look At Another Uncanny Charade Casted By The Secretive Caucus Throng


Starting with #1


1~~ I did the.., "slide puzzle"? and I believe I have put it together properly. The image is attached above ^^^^^


2~~ With this game having a rather long title.. could it be the product of an acronym that means something
This would be DLUCCSCT when cutting out the non-essential linking words, however, It could also be ADLAAUCCBTSCT Which.. I have no meaning for at the moment but I'm sure someone can do something with that info.

3~~ Another post I found suggests that reverse image searching his profile picture, yields a medium profile with a similar profile image. 
Linked to this profile are twitter and facebook profiles.  The medium profile is here https://medium.com/@automatthias  
A google+ file has also been found that has the same name. Link ----> https://plus.google.com/+MaciejBlizi%C5%84ski

4~~ Very far down on this post there are some mentions of anagrams that translate into what it seen as insignificant, and rather crude sentences. 

I will have to get back to all of you when I gather information from that post, and how it pertains to T&B considering both translations are lines from that specific game.


~Wraithinian~

has anyone considered looking into numerology and similar practices? Maybe we can find some sort of solution there?
