IRON LUNG AU/FANGAME IDEA: A “Type Help”-esque adaptation of Iron Lung where you play as a COI employee trying to find uncorrupted transcripts of the audio logs in the black box after the events of the movie DO YOU SEE THE VISION DO YOU HEAR ME GOD DO YOU HEAR ME
long idea dump under the cut
The characters are given numbers just like in the game (and you can rename the numbers into the characters' names to keep better track of them like in Type Help)
@ = the transcriber
1 = Simon
2 = Ava
3 = David
4 = Jack
5 = The One Who Told You to Cross the Wires
6 = the SM-8 captain
7 and 8 = the rest of the SM-8 crew
And when Simon hallucinates, only his side of the conversation is heard (but it would also be funny if the hallucinations weren’t simple hallucinations and they were picked up by the voice recorder or transcribed on their own)
bonus if the transcriber goes mad while making the transcripts of the audio logs and hides the files and file names so that the player has to find them
The locations should have initials as well, I think. I have a few ideas (HA = hangar, CA = cave) but idk what other locations to abbreviate because that would mean naming areas in the blood ocean map. I think replacing the location initials with coordinates would be funnier but that’s a lotta numbers lmfao. I could also give the subs initials (SM13 and SM8) but idk.
Of course, the events would all be in different time codes just like in Type Help, and they will be separated into acts as well (Type Help had 4 acts, but for this one there are three, I’m still thinking of what to name them)
The text colors for each act should be green for ACT I, yellow for ACT II, and red for ACT III.
I should name this au lol
EDIT: i forgot to add but I think any extras would be either in white or in blue (like how in Type Help, extra files that @ made are in yellow iirc but don’t take my word for it I haven’t played the game in a while)
John Hobbes's death paralells Eleonor Galley's, and they died through the same means. At least.... if we take Tony's account as true. But he's working with 3rd hand information (from George, to Harry, to Eve, to him) and he seems to want to impress Annie. We should take his account with a grain of salt. I'm more tempted to believe Oswald, who said "we went upstairs and ..." To me, that sounds like that's when they noticed she'd passed, upstairs.
I don't think they would have found an empty room either, because you can hear the door of the entryway opening and closing from the kitchen. She would have been found by staff immediately if she had jumped, no need to go upstairs.
So, it might not be accurate to say their deaths paralel each other. (Emphasis on might: this is circumstantial evidence and not definitive proof) But if that's the case, the doll crashing before John is not a wasted motif, far from it!
Because at the end of the story, Eleanor Galley is the last one of her family to be remembered. She's the last inhabitant the living can recall. John is the only victim who's able to be identified. Nobody alive knows exactly what happened to either of them, but their names (and only their names) linger on. John's death doesn't necessarily mirror Eleanor's, but it mirrors the memory of her.
tried to give @crumpet099 an Eddie for their Eve but I made him look like MatPat even tho I was going for a Connor DBH kinda vibe. Help (haha).
sorry if my handwriting is ass it’s midnight rn
also my brain refuses to picture Eddie in anything other than suspenders. He seems like a suspenders kind of fellow (like how Oswald is like a rotund monopoly man in my head)
