I'm so Oni ☆

So I heard a rumor...

I had the idea to put headphones on this ugly purple creature and make him dance, this was my result. After rendering out each scene in 480p, I decided that wouldn't supply enough detail for the viewer to pick out smaller elements I put in the backgrounds, so I re-rendered each scene in 1080p (I just doubled the resolution again so YouTube didn't totally kill the quality). This entire project took around a month to complete.

Special thanks to Aussieman for the illustration reference used at 0:38 and TheChaseEXP for the pixel art sticker used at 0:51 (on the laptop).

Ao Oni was developed by Noprops.

yall gotta watch this while high it actually goes crazy

[HTSI]

I love how the internet randomly remembers AoOni existed, and to be fair, everyone should remember him

I think I found one of the 'details' that our dear, beloved ClusterFunk embedded within the video. As you see, from the very beginning of the video by 0:13, you see that the edge of the screen (which refers to the protagonist's view) is not blurred purple. However, right after the first appearance of Ao Oni('ugly purple creature' lol), the edge turns purple. I think this means that the cameraman got in the mansion as a human, but unfortunately got caught by that Oni dude and got infected, became an Oni, somehow has enjoyed the party, and left the mansion.

oh... thats peak... thats peak all over my screen

[Peroid]

This is exactly what the creation of the game has been leading up to.

This is incredible. It has hit me emotionally like nothing ever has before. This is nothing else than a masterpiece. It's beautiful. It's Ao mazing.

the party caused so much ruckus it is the reason the plate fell in the kitchen

[SamiTheAnxiousBean]

I love how Ao Oni somehow has insanely good fanworks and a ton of importance for Indie rpg horror as a whole...

Despite being one of the worst games you'll ever play
