Trash Mammal

Talk about a social faux pas. I've heard Cole may be a ferret, but let's go with raccoon for the sake of the joke.

  1. First.
    is mae actually a cat?

    1. Unlikely. It’s never mentioned, so it’s more likely to be a hybrid metaphor/style choice.

      1. I can’t remember any instances of animal physiology being mentioned, but her parents do call her “kitten” at times! It’s not unthinkable that human parents would use that term endearingly, but it’s still pretty weird.

        1. According to the devs, the original plan was that the species would be stand-ins for races but they opted to make them canonically human with animal representations instead, and opted to go for visual distinctiveness instead. (Although arguably the various species are still racial stand-ins, at least judging by the concordances with name etymologies; for example, all of the cats have Polish names.)

          There’s a couple of minor holdovers from the original idea, such as the ball of yarn in the “clue box,” which they wanted to get rid of but it was just so darn much FUN.

          But anyway Word Of God is that the characters are human, we just see them through cartoon animal eyes.

    2. SPINY SHELL !!!

  2. the whole anthropomorphic animals living with feral animals is always a little unnerving

    1. Anthros eating other anthros would be even more unnerving.

      1. well that put a weird image in my head

        1. M job is done here. :D

  3. How come GaMERCaT doesn’t eat ramen?

  4. This is a place where GaMERCaT fits in.

    1. its odd that no one ever questions that he is a cat. it coul make some funny jokes…

      “snake? snake! snaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake!”
      “I’m a cat.”

  5. Hey you could do a Bendy and the ink machine one

    1. or max and the magic marker

    2. or Epic Mickey. Nano would like that

  6. I don’t get the joke. What game is this a reference to?

    1. Same as last week: “Night in the Woods.”

  7. Undertale kinda commented on that trope when there was the bunny girl who had a smaller bunny on a leash.

    1. Yeah but if you remember she said she was taking her brother out for a walk, maybe they are more animal like when they’re young?

  8. Says the cat who qualifies as both regular and anthropomorphic.

  9. Not reflective of any actual plans

    Social Faux PAWS
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
    *falls down into a pit*
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    1. You mean “Social FOX Pas”?
      HEHEHEHEHEHEHE
      *falls into an other pit*

  10. It’s hard to find a game where Gamercat just slides into so naturally. I’m sure Gamercat would mess up in almost the exact same ways Mae does.

    … Now I’m imagining Gregg and Gamercat going around committing crimes. They go together like peanut butter and jelly. It’s scary, a little. What have we done?

  11. MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOW I WILL NEVER CALM DOWN!

    1. IM A TRASH MAMMAL BAAABEH!!!!!

  12. Being a drunk trash mammal doesn’t help either.

  13. I’ve always felt the same about humans and chimps.

  14. If Cole was a ferret that would’ve made a good punchline.
    “It gets confusing with real and anthropomorphic animals!”
    “…I’m a ferret.”

  15. Funny story. I liked the phrase “nightmare eyes” from this game I wrote a song about it. About nightmare eyes that is not liking the phrase.

  16. I have literally spent days thinking about how this game works and how it would feel like to live in that place.

  17. Mission Failed we’ll get em next time

  18. I tried this game and to be honest, I don’t see the appeal
