This Nintendo 64 Game is a Polygonal NIGHTMARE

[Music] within the indie horror scene there's a lot of subg genres or styles that have definitely blown up in popularity one example is the PlayStation styled horror game where it's a scary game but it's got that classic 32-bit PlayStation look tons of games utilize this style for many different reasons whether to elicit that classic survival horror feel or just to make your game look grungier with all of these 32-bit horror games out there where are all the 64bit horror games n Nintendo 64 while not as popular in the horror scene as it's a strange stepsister the PlayStation it does have a decent amount of representation in the indie horror Community games like shipwreck 64 and catastrophe Crow gained a pretty big following utilizing the style to great effect there's also go go hamster Chef which is not talked about nearly enough I love that game like a sun recently there's one N64 horror game that I've actually been hearing a lot about that I finally decided to check out and it's titled Kitty cart 64 is it weird that on this channel I've talked about two cat horror games in a row now something about cats is just terrifying man Jesus don't don't do that what is wrong with you kitty cart 64 is an indie horror game created by snug booat 11 for the LSD Jam 2023 game Jam if you don't know a game Jam is a competition where people have a time limit to create a game around a theme in the case of LSD jam it was inspired by the game LSD dream emulator for the PS1 which was was this Lucid ass PS1 game where you had to explore a bunch of these surreal areas I would absolutely love a copy but I'd also love to afford food for the month playing through Kitty cart I could definitely see some LSD emulator inspiration but more obviously I could see the Mario Kart 64 inspiration I mean kitty carts literally got 2third of that game's title in its title see look C and 32 squared bam Wait no that's not right I I meant to say 32 t to I I don't think 32 squ Works in this case also according to the Creator it takes inspiration from big rigs over the road racing which is sick as hell I also love the style that this game's artwork adapts it emulates that smooth N64 3D model style amazingly you know what I mean like those old Mario 64 promo images or literally any box art for the console ever enough talking about the 3D models that I really want to eat for some reason let's finally talk about yet another funny horrific cat game welcome to G card [Music] 64 the intro was definitely hitting me with the Nostalgia emulating those old company logos that would play before any PlayStation or N64 game crunchy video file and all also this game was developed by scrun Soft interactive which is the actual name of the dev team who worked on this that's just amazing if I started a Dev team I'm naming it something silly like that too cimbo glop Studios will be real before you know it the menu opens up with a great Mario karty aesthetic and a voice that goes welcome to Kitty cart 64 wait hold on this cat's literally me look at this besides messing with some settings the only thing you could really do is go to single player there is a multiplayer setting but it's really just for show you can't actually run up kitty cart with your pal sadly I heard though that if you use code toad buet gamer subs for 10% off you can actually unlock a multiplayer mode hold on hold on multiplayer mode and 10% off of some delicious beverages I'd say that's an absolute steal I'm I'm like there's no multiplayer mode but use my code it'd be funny starting up single player you can immediately see the Mario Kart 64 influence at play the character model isn't actually a 3D model but it's 2D images of a 3D model that will give the illusion of 3D this is what games like Donkey Kong Country and of course Mario Kart 64 would do to use 3D Without Really straining the consoles with those models I've never seen this technique utilized much in other games before let alone a horror game this combined with the janky 64-bit Graphics a model's phasing in and out of existence and a soundtrack that strangely reminds me of the Toy Story 2 game all leads to a game that captures that N64 Spirit perfectly oh and shout out to Andrew Pierce the soundtrack is an absolute Banger go and listen to it when you can the go-kart itself controls well there's no real comments to give on it you can look behind you jump honk your horn interact with objects it's all fairly standard getting into the actual gam playay this first map has you finishing all three laps you kind of just drive the first lap and eventually when you make your way around the track once the Finish Line seems to have been destroyed and you can't even complete any more laps after this you're stuck on one out of three for like the entire game at this point now normally in Mario Kart this would pretty much mean you're but this ain't your granddad's Mario Kart because in Kitty cart you could do some good old off-roading surrounding the actual racetrack is a lot of random structures mostly Le and building blocks there is one thing though climbing up this little Tower next to a crashed go-kart which is already a bad sign you could find this image lying on the ground yeah this is where the game starts to get silly throughout the game there's these creepy little drawings littered around probably giving some crazy lore details but I don't know I'll try to piece it all together at the end this is just the beginning of the silly Shenanigans in this game because as you stray further and further from the course it becomes more Barren and quiet as you eventually just straight up fall off the side of the map also there's traffic cones that are supposed to stop you from doing this but instead you kind of just dink them around the map at the end of every track in different ways you're transported into a new Creepy area in the case of this one you're trans ported into this weird mud world there's not really anything here for you except that you slowly sink deeper and deeper into the mud you could try to save yourself but yeah eventually you're taking that mud plunge buddy no getting around it there's this girl that's there too sitting on top of something avoiding the mud entirely she kind of just says [ __ ] you though and doesn't let you up you're laughing you let Kitty cart 64 themselves drown in mud and you're laughing the next level is the desert one which this is where I see the LSD inspiration you're just kind of falling through these random worlds some of which are breaking apart and downright disturbing I absolutely adore games like this where it's almost more of an interactive chaotic art piece rather than a video game kitty cart is definitely more structured than that but you could see how this game still dabbles in that Randomness anyways besides this friendly dog that just wants to feel the sun uh there's not much here you kind of just got to drive around for a bit and then wait for everything to start falling apart this might not look great for the player but hey at least the dog from earlier can finally feel something you can also find another drawing here and man I can already tell my lur explanation is going to be horrible anyways I guess the desert was just fed up with me at some point cuz I eventually just phased through the ground into the next level this stage is definitely a bit more uh stylized to say the least the screeches of the Damned and seizing bodies on the ground are the main focus of the map not to mention the cyan and magenta color scheme you aren't printing [ __ ] with that color scheme though you're going to need some yellow first trying to jump off the edge like usual is a bit tricky this time around because the map likes to troll You by moving blocks as soon as you go for an exit also I apologize if I miss any letters or drawings or whatever I have the worst sense of direction known to man so I wasn't really sure where I had and hadn't been yet after some light chicanery from the stage you can eventually hop off the ledge this next track is actually pretty different compared to the previous ones as you now have to collect balloons you're also just kind of in this void of nothingness with nothing but misspelled congratulation signs balloons and the cheers of children not to mention some of these balloons have blood in them sure that's always great according to this drawing there might even be children inside of the balloons gender reveal parties are getting so weird nowadays anyways pop enough children balloons and you're rewarded with some spontaneous combustion you're now in this overpass freeway area at night time it's weird going from this super bright evil time to an actual Road okay maybe not there's floating fish everywhere there's also some new notes along the way such as a cat in a city and a uh sheep crying rainbows not to mention that there's a wise cracking cat that's fishing nearby let's see what they have to say you said it corrupted cat entity you have to make your way to a flooded area down below which took me way too long to find and hop into the water to make your way to the final area anyone who has a fear of very large parking lots might want to look away for this one told you thrown into this giant ass parking lot you kind of just got to drive around aimlessly until you could find these red arrows spray painted on the ground I'm sure whatever kind soul did this for me was doing so with great intentions and nothing bad will happen eventually you find an entrance going further down into the parking lot and also a pile of bloody teeth on the ground possibly a bad sign but I mean worst the worst I could just drive off the edge of the universe to escape to a new dimension you drive further and further down as there doesn't seem to be an end in sight all of a sudden there it is the Finish Line forget the fact that you have two more laps to finish after you cross it it's finally there how many wacky zany worlds did I travel through to find this putting my life on the line driving in a goofy purple go-kart it was all worth it though because I finally won wait what why why can't I move [Music] [Music] [Applause] the finish line was too good to be true as after being stopped right before the line by some Road spikes This Tall entity makes its way towards you slowly but surely he reaches you and chops you to bits and pieces safe to say there's no escaping off the side of the map this time especially after you see the ending this dude did not survive at least the game congratulates you for winning I thanks I guess and that was Kitty cart 64 it's only a demo for a bigger game that's in the works right now and that kind of sucks cuz that means it wasn't very long but I mean it definitely piqued my interest I think it peaked Kitty's interest too something about an axe in the back of your head probably gets your attention originally this was going to be a video about Nintendo 64 horror games as a whole but after I played Kitty cart I was like yeah this is a sick ass game I got to talk about this I might still do that video though so don't worry Harvest Festival fans Kitty cart was a great short indie horror game with very little to complain about if I had to get nitpicky I'd have to say that I don't like how vague the lore is but I also am just horrible at piecing things together like that so that could just be a me thing okay not looking up anything about the lore this is my guess on what the story is so maybe it was like somebody who died and this is like their Purgatory maybe it was like a car crash or an ax wielding Maniac something that was in the game I I don't know that's just my game theory if I missed a drawing or a super secret Easter egg feel free to shake your fist in the sky and comment not cool toad chump never do that again Kitty cart 64 had so much going for it rather than against the visuals were outstanding really mimicking that Mario Kart 64 style perfectly like I said I really love those 2D 3D Sprites they used the music was great controls were great Kitty was great he was purple and yellow after all and the horror here is something I don't see done very often besides the last area being a more standard scary dark area with a big scary killer the lucidness and randomness of the other zones really helped in setting the tone of a truly haunted and weird ass N64 game the game playay wasn't really outstanding it was more about the experience of the game but I liked that you had to look for multiple different ways to LEAP into the void great stuff I'm very excited for the full game because as of this video it's currently in development and even has a steam page go show them your support and for every one download of the ichio version one kitty cart will toss themselves off a cliff it's what Kitty would have wanted come on to be a purple cat driving in the void such a simple life God I wish that was me oh hell yeah I'm in Kitty cart all right I need to find some mud to drown in or a cliff to jump off of [Music] you you got
