I suspect, Judge, that you were supposed to go back and talk to the dev's self-insert again, for that Zalgo thing.

ok so I know this thread isnt the most appropriate place to ask about this but i already told my parents and they actually started trying to talk to me about like medication so i definately cant go to the police about this even though jerry is like my best friend. just please believe me because its true i need advice on this real bad.

ive been friends with jerry since preschool. we're in hs now and we kind of grew up together. now ive always kind of been a slacker but jerry like never misses a day of school. except for when he got one of his livers removed in 5th grade he just never has, and even then I knew about it six months ahead of time. so when jerry missed two straight weeks of school and i didnt hear a peep from him i got really concerned, especially since ive always been close with his mother, at least as close as a 15 year old kid can be with his best friends mom without it being weird.

so the next saturday i ride my razor scooter over to jerrys house to see what's up. i ring the doorbell like 3 times but nobody answered. i know this is wrong but i was worried about jerry so i start to look into the windows and stuff and i see someone moving around in there. it kind of looks like jerrys dad but that doesnt make any sense because his father died when he was in 3rd grade. so theres just this strange guy laying on the couch of jerrys living room and since jerrys been gone for weeks my mind starts to panic i think "did this guy kill jerry and his mom" or something like that, i don't know, and i made a stupid choice i get it and i busted the window and jumped in saying "where the h*** is jerry! what did you do to him!"

but then i take a look at who is on the sofa. its jerry. but its not him too. his body is different. it was older and flabbier. and he didnt have a shirt on and i could see that where he had a scar from getting one of his livers removed, but he didn't have the scar. ok this is going to sound crazy but his dad had a very unique body shape, and i could swear... no nvm i dont want to think about it.
i tried asking jerry what is up and its like im not even there he just keeps saying "coffee" "coffee". it was like he was dead but could still talk. i tried everything, tears in my eyes though, i went home. thats when i tried to tell my parents and i even got them to go to to jerrys house with me but he wasnt there anymore. in fact all the furniture was there. my parents said he must have moved away, but i saw him. after a while i stopped pushing it because they started saying i had manic depression or worse.

so the only thing i could do was log onto aol and search for "coffee". i expected to just get a bunch of stuff about lattes and espressos and cafe crema and cappucinos and mocha and frappes, but the first result was actually a minecraft lets play on youtube. its weird that it was the first result because it had zero views but i clicked it and it didnt really give me a whole lot of information but it was sort of weird. i mean it was just a regular minecraft lets play by some assholes but like the quality was kind of strange. it was HD but also looked worse than 240p and the colors were off. this is going to sound strange but i saw colors in the video that ive never seen before. i'd link to the video but ive since tried to find it and couldnt. all i find is stuff about cafe au lait and affogato and turkish blend and cortado.

but ever since i watched it ive been feeling kind of hungry all the time. ive just been eating and eating. my dad says its part of depression but thats easy for him to say hes actually been losing weight really fast and he doesnt even work out.

you guys seem to know about spooky stuff so i hope you can help coffee and maybe i can find coffee what happened to jerry. thanks, ill try to stick around but im just coffee hungry

This video took the Coffeemen to new levels of inability to solve basic puzzles. It's a meme game for children! And yet still the best game we've seen so far. I'm going to look up some of these scary stories now.

Were you meant to go back and talk to that kid? Or pick option 2? I think you guys just kept picking 3.

Inkagames.com has a mind boggling number of these games. A full quarter of them focused on Obama.

Its like being invited into a crazy person's house. You walk in, see no furniture and 8 rescue bunnies. Your host is waiting for compliments as you process an emotional mixture of terror and awe.

Nidoking: Jan 27, 2009; I fought the lava, and the lava won.

I"m pretty sure the term "copypasta" came up in computer science, to refer to the way people tend to lazily copy and paste until their program turns into spaghetti code. It probably evolved into "creepypasta" when someone noticed how often the Microsoft clipboard pastes something completely different from what you told it to copy and wrote a horror story about it pasting "I will kill you" or something stupid like that.

# ? Oct 26, 2015 14:18

Ramos: Jul 3, 2012

Close, it was more due to the fact that people on older boards would go around copying and pasting horror stories. A bit of cross pollination there.

Don't let the "haters" get to you, ju'je, they're just trying to justify their dry cleaning bills after they got thoroughly "spooked" by that terrible SCP game.

Oh man, I've played most of these games on my stream during my Bad Game Theater segment. Nice to see them taken into an experiment of most important science.

Should you need MORE science, here is a bundle of lovely games I have also done self-experimentation with https://www.bundlestars.com/en/bundle/nightmares-bundle

i can confirm they all are Most Scary Experiences (except for The Path, which is some arthouse bullshit rape fantasy you should skip at all costs).

I represent a big Hollywood video game studio, I saw your work kids and I think you've got what it takes to make the next creepypasta video game of the season. The coders are already working round the clock on the assets and we've got an endorsement deal from notable "let us player" markplier, I just need you to write a 200 page treatment on lore. We can have this baby in early access ready for purchase on steam by Halloween, we're predicting huge gains with the tweens demographic.
