Living, Living, Living, Living.
I'm absolutely in awe of this collaborative fan animation for Omori, created to celebrate the upcoming fourth anniversary of the game's release.
I have no idea how the Omori fandom keeps making things like this! Just an incredible display of effort and skill and teamwork. It completely blew me away; I got very emotional the first time I watched it.
(NB: this fan animation contains full-game spoilers and Omori-typical unsettling imagery, and switches rapidly between shots on occasion.)
Just rewatched it and got chills all over again. Fandom is incredible. Nobody had to do this! And yet over fifty people came together to do it anyway, just for the love of it.
I'd love to create more fanworks for Omori, but it's a game I really struggle to write anything for. It lends itself more to fanart than to fanfiction, I think, and I'm not a fanartist; my visual art skills are limited to 'landscape painting' and 'poorly drawing Father Christmas hats onto characters' heads' (of which more shortly). I'm glad there are a lot of visual artists out there in this fandom, doing extremely cool things.
I can't think of anything else to include in this post, other than general crying about Omori, so I'll just do the traditional bad Christmas manip a few days early.
Merry Christmas, if you're celebrating! Best wishes from me and this extremely festive young man.
I was originally contemplating Andrew or Ashley Graves for this year's Christmas manip before settling on Omori, so I suppose it was never going to end up very festive (or very colourful). This is the problem with psychological horror games.
Yes, the problem with psychological horror games is specifically 'you'll end up using characters from them for your annual festive manip, thus ruining Christmas'. It's a long-established issue.
