Top of the morning to you laddies, my name is jacksepticeye and welcome to a game called the static speaks my name
somebody left this in a comment yesterday
And they say that it was the way they worded it that really piqued my interest
Because they said it was a really cool game
It was short, but it was very very like effective
And that it had like a message to send and that it involved a lot of issues
And it was just really really good, and I looked at the trailer, and it does look kinda cool
And they said it was about a man obsessed at a painting in his house alone
...Or something, so it- it does sound interesting so I wanted to give it a try just to see what it was like
I have a feeling it's going to be kind of like a Presentable Liberty kind of game like where there's highly emotional content
it's going to be highly charged um because it looks simple, but
Usually that means there's something going on underneath, so let's press e to start. Oh, I'm in space
I'm going towards static 'cause apparently it's speaking my name and I gotta go towards it okay. Oh things fly in front of my face. Oh
It's loud 'name Jacob Ernoltz age 31. Method asphyxiation by hanging'
Wait hold on a minute
Don't tell me I'm like going to have to like commit suicide in the game. Oh, God. That's not good
'the static speaks my name' oh oh
So there probably should be a warning at the start of this then if there is suicide involved. today will be a better day
That's a that's a good motivational picture, but it looks kind of creepy
3:22 a.m.. Turn off the alarm, please. It's driving me mad
Oh, I'm in control can I turn off the alarm? objective one use the bathroom
oh, thank God. Ah it was driving me insane if I heard that over and over again. Use the bathroom, look at my little shrimps
Hi, dudes. Oh, they're so cute
I'm gonna call you Jacob, Steve, Harold, Jerry and Reginald. I don't know why; just chose those names; just popped into my head
There's some nails
Shrimp pink gold... uh
'What's the least he can eat' 'Faking Spanish' 'Not waving but drowning'
'Empty women' those are some weird-ass books
Okay, can we go through the door? not yet?
What not yet?
Open door
Okay, I don't think that's the way to my bathroom
I think we have an ensuite. is this the painting he's obsessed with? because I just saw it out in the hall as well
But I don't know why he's obsessed with that
Yeah, bathroom
Can I brush my teeth? Can I have a bath?
Nothing in the toilet. Is this a horror game? I hope not
Cuz I don't know what to expect. use toilet there we go
Sit down
Wait are we peeing?
But we're a boy you can pee standing up
I know some people do pee sitting down if they are guys anyway right, okay um
You.... Oh!... Objective two: eat breakfast. I was just about to say new objective
That is an effective picture to wake up to every morning
Because it would shock you but... I don't wake up facing the ceiling
I wake up facing like the wall or something or facing my pillows 'cause my head is buried in them
See there's the painting again
Is it the same?
Oh, more books. 'Uganda and you: how a genocide might affect your weekend'
'The autoerotica of Benjamin Franklin' 'Mayor's town' what the hell?
'Six slugs for Mario'. The hell kind of books do you read? and why are my doors all boarded up?
Oh, this is creepy
Can I turn on the TVs?
Good Lord. There's something buzzing behind that. Take keys
What's buzzing? It's not the TVs. Sounds like it's coming from here
Is there something behind these?
Hello, okay, I have to eat breakfast. Here's the picture again the, picture is everywhere. It's over there
Oh, it's everywhere in here
Holy shit. He really is obsessed!!
'The Bahamas' 'probable setting of painting'
'But where? The Bahamas are huge.'
Yes, they are
'To do for hidden door to safe room have lock on the door fitted so I can use my house key
Glue down light and upright books
It's annoying when they fall. Make books look casual on the shelves so people aren't suspicious. See page two
This is too formal. This is a good amount of casual. This is so casual it looks fake'
What?
'For hidden safe ... for hidden door to safe room'
Okay, so we got to look for a book that's small, three normal, and then two sideways
Is there a hidden safe room?
Okay, let's go look for books. Wait, we'll look around in here first
Look at all the pictures of the painting. 'Split shadow, infrared, black-and-white, higher contrast'
'Shadows don't naturally divert with a single light source' that's true actually because
like the shadows are going like that when they really should go that way or that way together
Maybe he does have a point
'Possible optical magnetic disturbance'. Huh. Illuminati? Heh.
What the fuck?
Why this picture? There's nothing special about it. 'Left palm aka Hand of God'
'Black and white, higher contrast, lines of influence'
right, 'infrared... infrared... infrared painter signature found', ooh
'4 Makamer. Revealed by...scan.' Cool. 'Dead sky?'
I don't know what the hell you're talking about. Oh, this is a lot. Here
'we have one two three four five six- the seventh leaf is dying or dead'
'Possibly biblical' 'here we have eight, this juxtaposition is no accident'
'but what does it mean? Eight is an extension of the seventh day, the Lord's day, and hints at infinity.'
Dude, you are not right in the head. 'signature too sensitive to appear with high contrast'
What the fuck?
Oh this one has their signature on it the rest don't. can I do something to you? You're in a different frame as well
There's something behind you- no
- this guy is crazy
Okay, moving along. Let's look for a bookshelf.Oh is this it? no
Oh, oh, oh creepy
Hello, what the fuck. 'need sleep. tired tired tired tired' This is like some Shining shit
What the fuck what the fuck there's a dude in a cage
oh- I'm getting..like...shivers up my back
Hi, it's one of the shrimp in his like, Eatin Bowl
*whisper* What is this game?
Are you painting these? oh
oh
Creepy so creepy I can't do anything in here
Oh, so creepy get out of here this guy is insane. not only is he gonna kill himself. He's got a hostage
oh
That sends shivers down your back
More fucking paintings 'could it be man-made if so what are the implications' nothing!! You're a crazy motherfucker!
'Police have found- police have few leads in disappearance of local painter. Is that the guy I have in my
..Safe... locked up area? Jason Malone after a hiking trip. Tim allen comedy special a delight, says fans'
'Repeal Obamacare take the poll'
What? open fridge
Ok still empty. I guess it's shrimp again. No. I don't want to eat my shrimps
Do i have to go eat shrimp?!
It's a remote-
cooker
microwave
Can I do anything?
kitchen towel
I don't know what's going on
I'm freaked out by this oh, let's check the computer

"Mom, I guess I'm supposed to write a note. first off, I don't want you to blame yourself. and with dad gone
I'm sorry. I have to leave you too. Please don't be angry with me.-" That's a suicide note!
What does it say?
'First off, I don't want you to blame yourself'
It looks like fast, or fact or, something 'I don't
think I have ever been'
Okay weird
That's a creepy picture as well. 'password reminder birthday and address'
There's that stupid painting again. can use the computer? no oh
My God, this is weirdin' me out-  ah there's a noose..!
Oh, okay. I can't pick it up good
'open circuit box- kitchen left, electricity goes to our guests in case of emergency'
no, not the guy in the cage!
'A Woman is like a tea bag. You can't tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water'
Okay, that's a weird thing to have in our like a circuit breaker thing
It's going to eat my shrimp
This game is creepy
Can I go in here yet? No?
Is her secret behind this? no, okay. 'Eat shrimp'. AH, no
'Eat another shrimp'. AH, NO!! they're all disappearing. he's just eatin them raw..!
'chat online with friends'. can I even feed them?
My poor shrimp. They were so nice my babies. printer by Jico's professional photography
not your babies anymore, they're your DINNER.
Okay, now we can use the computer

This is one of those games that you have to like really explore around and like check everything cuz you probably gonna miss stuff
Unless you're not able to progress unless you like click everything so let's just click everything again. washer
Kitchen towel, sink, microwave, no okay

'Hi, handsome. How are you doing? I'm okay. How are you? I'm horny'
smiley face
'Press g to say you've embarrassed everyone who believed in you press h to say you can feel the atoms in your body waking up'
...Those are not normal things to say!!!

'I just..

'I'm touching myself. Do you want to see?'
'Press g to say you're about to do something horrible. press H to admit you saw your reflection be decapitated with a shovel' what?
[H]
"i don't know...maybe but"
'I'm thinking about how big you are it's making me wet. Send me your CC info, baby. I want you to watch me cum'
Okay, so this guy is weird. I feel uncomfortable playing as this guy. you can't use computer anymore. clean the microwave
*whisper* What?
It's clean! hooray! 'decide what to do about the man in the cage-' no
do i have to kill him?!
i don't want to kill him, can i free him? please let me free him. I know there was a circuit box back there
That would allow me to kill him if I wanted to
*whisper* Who has like this kind of a fucking vault in their house?
'unlock cage' yay!
Return to your room and let your body rest.
oh no, oh no please tell me that means going back to bed...
i wanna go back to bed, i wanna go back to bed!

So when they mean rest they mean like rest in peace..
 
oh God oh, God. Oh Jesus. Oh. God no, oh
Oh god, oh, no
Ahh no, it's creeping me out. It's creeping me out. Oh
Jesus Christ
Wait, what now we're back in the special bubbles
I just played a game where i committed suicide and had a man locked up in a cage. What the fuck?
'z.f. Lincoln' that was the guy that was on the book!... 'age 73... nembutal overdose?!'
What the fuck there's bubbles everywhere?
'barbie hedquist....age 51.....leap from condo balcony'
These are all suicides
'nadia handford, 16, self-immolation'
What are you oh, God Jesus?
'Vincent nambalia, 40......throat cut with carving knife......'
Can we just pick one and go for it?
oh no, not again. I don't want to kill somebody else
oh! credits
Oh, I dont have to go through it again. Oh good. oh, no. oh that made me feel weird
*stammers*
Okay, when you said it was when people said in the comments that this was dark
And it was a man obsessed with a painting
I did not think I was gonna be playing a game where I had a man locked in a cage in my room
Feeding him shrimp out of my own aquarium, and then hanging myself at the end
Each Day was not gonna be better
Like it said each day was better day after day or something the note on the roof when I woke up
'Thanks for playing', and the game closes itself
What the fuck?
okay, that was really weird, um, I might have to put a warning at the start of this because it's not a horror game or
Anything but that did deal with some really really
heavy issues, like they're like, I literally just played out a suicide
There was a suicide note there, the guy was messed up in the head
I could have probably killed the guy in the cage if I went back to the circuit box
I was eating my own shrimp. That was like the mind of a killer or something oh
That was weird, but um I know a lot of people out there
I often get messages from people like about suicide stuff and
Okay, so suicide is like a really really heavy issue on the internet
and it's really hard to talk about um, going back to the end of presentable Liberty when I played that I had like a
Little like talk at the end of it where I explained that there has been suicide in my family, my uncle committed suicide and like I said back
Then I wasn't close to him. I didn't really know him as a person
I didn't really talk to him all that much
But like I knew him enough
To for it to be like a shock
because he was such a nice person and everything and every time I met him he always seemed like so together and normal and
Like just one day. We woke up and my father found out that his brother had killed himself and
Like it was by hanging as well, so it's like
You have no idea how much of a shock it is for people, like you think your life is so bad
And you just want to end it all but it affects so many more people than you'd expect when you carry out those actions
so please if any of you out there are going through like suicide right now or
Suicidal thoughts or you've experienced suicide with friends or family or anything like that
Please know that you are not alone in these things, there are people out there somewhere
Who are who will like understand what you're going through
they'll be able to talk to you or like get you through these hard times
um... if some of your immediate family do not want to talk about it
Or you find it hard to talk to people or friends or anything
Please reach out to somebody, there are
Suicide hotlines, there are like, you could even go to the police, you can go to hospitals, anything at all
There are clinics for this kind of stuff, hotlines
Please talk to somebody do not like sit alone
and think about like the implications of what will happen do not think about ending at all because
Whatever, you're going through is temporary suicide is permanent
It's it's a permanent solution to a temporary problem
That can be fixed, you won't think that it can be fixed. you might be in your darkest period of your life ever
and you just want to end it all but believe me it can be fixed. anything can be worked through or talked about and
