Do you dream of going into spooky places and filming whatever comes out at you? Monsters shouldn’t be that scary, and all those stories about other people getting hurt must be fake, right? Now you can live that dream with your friends in this online co-op horror-comedy game Content Warning!
Some of my favorite YouTubers have started releasing videos since this game came out on April 1. Along with Lethal Company, this indie game is one that I am psyched to see come out of early access and be the next great co-op game in the world.
Why are We Making Content, and Why Does it Need A Warning?
If you’re worried about the title of the game having dangerous or depressing themes, don’t worry. The worst thing that could happen is going into a giggling fit over the silly mechanics or a laugh of relief when your friend sneaks up behind you.
You and your friends have one main goal: to make a viral video that earns you money. Pretty simple, right? Outfitted with black diving suits, a colorful face for you and your friends to customize, a camera, and some flashlights, you are set to head into the Old World and find whatever strikes your fancy.
Once you’ve established your roles, head over to the diving bell, and everything is set for the best day of your lives. It’s super easy! Nothing too scary is down there, so there’s no need to be afraid.
He’s Right Behind Me, Isn’t He?
As soon as you arrive in the Old World, you might notice some things are amiss. All the colors have disappeared, save for your faces and flashlights. Everything is pitch black, and there are mysterious clanging noises that happen from time to time. Not to mention, there are sometimes random skulls or spines that you can find on the ground.
Who’s ready to start filming? As soon as the lighting is adjusted, you can start rolling and briefly introduce the video. After that’s out of the way, head over to – IS THAT A SNAIL WALKING ON TWO LEGS?!?!?
Yep, there are monsters in this game. Some are annoying if you run into a cluster of them; some are very speedy and can knock you over and trample anything in the way. But you’ll be fine if you don’t run into a turret dog or a ceiling grabber.
Hey, let’s go get an exclusive interview with the ghost over there! ‘Scuse me, sir, what do you have there? A knife!? NO! (*sounds of screaming and tripping over my feet)
General Consensus for Content Warning
Search this game on YouTube, and you’ll be greeted with many hilarious videos that will keep you entertained for hours. Some might call it the new Lethal Company, but I don’t think that’s a fair comparison. They have similar goals, but the games differ in how you get away from monsters and turn a profit.
My opinion: the developers have a few kinks to iron out, like bugs that crash the game on players before they can take the plunge or some other glitches that could have players zipping around for no reason. Poor Markiplier got to experience this first-hand when he hopped in the game. Here is the video from LordMinion777’s point of view.
In the UK, GabSmolders and her friends are quickly becoming masters of making some of the best content on SpookTube. It’s a cooperative game, and you need to ensure everything is ready to go before your oxygen runs out.
I’m sure we all will be making great content soon, so in the meantime, keep your peepers peeled, stay hydrated, and – *gasp* hey, little guy! You don’t look so bad. Who dares me to push the red button on his head?
