Also my computer recently died!Rain World Downpour - All EndingsTurtle Toad2023-02-05 | That's a lot of endings!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The new void endings give a lot to think about. Obviously there is no way to know exactly what is "correct," but I will share some interpretations below...
For Artificer's ending, I'm not really convinced that she became an echo as many community members seem to believe. I think that would be antithetical to her journey in the first place of finding all the echoes. If the player chooses to find the echoes, they actively forgo seeking revenge, and instead dedicate themselves to the more difficult path of enlightenment. I think this demonstrates Artificer's will to move on and let go of her anger, which binds her to this world. I think this is reflected in the ending. After seeing her pups again one final time, it was enough for Artificer to finally let go of them and leave this world behind.
For Saint's ending... my favorite interpretation is that they committed the very worst sin of ego-- far beyond that of the worldly attachment the echoes have. That sin was in their belief that they were above the cycle itself. That they were this higher being, capable of working outside the cycle, who would bring an end to it all... When in fact, in the end, Saint was never special at all, and that ego is what led to their eternal damnation. When they attacked the void worm, they clearly did so without thought of the consequences; Saint believed they were above the void worms and anything the void itself could possibly do against them. But they were wrong, in the end. In the end, Saint was just like everyone else, and their god-like ego held them back. To ascend, it seems, everyone must submit to the void and let go of their ego, and there is no higher being or action taken that is capable of bypassing that. In this way, Saint embodies the triple affirmative and all of the problems surrounding it; Saint is the epitome of all of the incorrect ways the ancients viewed ascension. They were egotistical in believing that there was any other way to ascend, any secret path aside from letting go of yourself and the world to leave it all behind. Although I don't necessarily think that Saint *is* the triple affirmative, as the age of the iterators has clearly passed, I think they represent it symbolically and why it could never be achieved.
This obviously doesn't explain how Saint ended up in their cursed time donut in the first place... To that, I say there doesn't exactly need to be a "beginning" to this cycle they are in. There isn't exactly any point on a ring where you'd say it begins, is there? At the moment I do not feel that there is any sufficient evidence to say exactly how it all started, if it even did at all. I do not think the challenge mode bossfight with SOS should be interpreted as canon, just like the rest of the challenges. Moon and Pebbles allude to none of it being real at all several times in their dialogue, so that is really the best clue we have to go off of. This is supported by the very fact that Saint gets their ascension powers at all. One interpretation I saw was that these ascension powers are not real, but instead represent Saint's wish to help others ascend. Another interpretation is that Saint is a martyr of sorts, here to help everyone ascend but incapable of it themselves. Perhaps, each time Saint cycles back to the Windswept Spires, they have "eliminated" yet another reality from the infinite set of realities that make up the universe of Rain World, and by eventually eliminating all of them, the great cycle can finally, mercifully, end.
These are just interpretations I wanted to share, though. Do not take them as fact.

I started editing this video in August of 2021 (though the recording was from even earlier than that) and then lost motivation to continue it for several months. It was intended to be a series type of thing, with one video dedicated to each challenge that I'd completed. This would have been the video for the pilgrimage challenge. I think I wanted to scrap it and restart or something, though I never did get around to doing that because it's very hard to just restart something that took several days (weeks?) to make. So the video kind of just sat in my folder forgotten until a few months later when more challenges were added to the discord lol.................... then I really lost my will to finish it since it would have been such a long series if I did all of them. So now, almost a year later than I'd intended to release it, here's this I guess!!!!!!!

Basically, I got a bunch of people to FIGHT to the DEATH in a custom rain world map!!!!! The results were kind of a mess. This was all a mess. But it was fun.
The mod being used that lets us all play together is called monkland. It is very finicky and unfinished, with only spears and players being synced, so use it at your own risk: github.com/Dracentis/Monkland/releases
To get this to work, everyone had to install a special custom map consisting of vanilla, unused, and modded rooms, which were graciously given to me to add in. There were absolutely no creature spawns, because each person would get their own version of the creatures that nobody else could see or interact with. They would just be a distraction unfortunately. There was no way to truly track kills and remove people when they died, so it was down to honor that you'd leave if you got eliminated in any fashion. That kind of limits it to small groups of mutuals like this.
Everyone did really well and I am very happy to have facilitated this :)
Also voice reveal :o (though it might be a little hard to tell which one I actually am.) ((kinda hard to tell who anyone is at times)) (((please be nice)))Rain World - Hunter points run (41,778)Turtle Toad2020-07-23 | It's more than 10,000 points off of the top 3 leaderboard, but I'll take it. It took me about 2 weeks of trying before I finally got a run that lived up to all the criteria I was aiming for. I plan to try again with some key changes, most important of which are not reviving moon anymore, going through Underhang for the orange kill, and changing the "echo shenanigan shelter" to be in Industrial Complex.
You would not believe how good cyans are at killing themselves (and me as well, they bit me quite often). They need a lot of babysitting.
I don't really know what else to say. I think I have gone numb with the tedium of dragging these mindless beasts around. I don't know how much recording there was but it was a lot! Possibly more than my entire Drought run! I'm a little disappointed that I had to use devtools at some parts. It should be noted that I used a mod that makes cyans ignore each other.Rain World - Aether RidgeTurtle Toad2020-04-10 | Aether Ridge was made by Kaeporo, you can find it on http://www.raindb.net
This place is so scary... The platforming reaches a level not previously exploited by the base game, and the region utilizes vanilla mechanics to the most powerful and unique extent it can. The region is much more than just levels!
I've eagerly watched the progress of Aether Ridge and waited in all the time that it took to release, and I have to say I was not disappointed one bit. The levels themselves reach an amount of detail sometimes beyond the vanilla game, and provide a lot of challenge in platforming that had me on edge constantly. The one thing I did not really like was the amount of inaccessible pipes that tantalized me, though you could just use the vanilla theme of "this world was not made for you" to explain that.
Overall I feel like Aether Ridge had been given many things by vanilla, and chose to forward them in all the ways the base game couldn't have (because of it being too difficult for new players etc).
With there being so many rooms (200!!!!!) I could not get to everywhere in this video, so definitely try out the mod to see it all.Rain World - Taking a deer to Five PebblesTurtle Toad2020-03-10 | I did it I took another unwilling creature to him it's done! Potentially any creature could be taken to him now, but I don't... plan to do that...
I had to edit out a mountain of attempts, this run was pain it was horrible don't try this at home it's all luck based. Sky Islands was particularly painful. Being launched out of pipes in random directions + death pits everywhere = sadness! Who knew!
Here's a video that explains the bug used a bit more in-depth and also has it a bit more clearly shown: youtube.com/watch?v=SbB8RRs0AZA&feature=youtu.beRain World - (most) Drought dialogueTurtle Toad2020-02-11 | Unfortunately, I couldn't get the thing where you eat a pearl and it's read to you to work, and passages don't go to LTTM, so for my own sanity I only had her read a few pearls. Apparently much of the dialogue is very similar to vanilla anyway. Probably for the better, this video's already almost an hour long. There's some missing punctuation and a few funny mistakes and duplicate dialogues which will be fixed later on. Also there's some fundamental things I don't like about the lore but those can't really be fixed because they're so at-the-root of the mod, so no point in bashing it. Pebbles are moon were very mean to me. ): They would consistently bump into me and then start yelling at ME, as if *I* were the nuisance!Rain World - The Drought (Part 4)Turtle Toad2020-01-10 | Finally, 3 months after release I finished this...
Not really sure what happened with getting stunned and hit with something at the end in the void sea. In a later run where I visited LTTM first, something a little different happened, but it really didn't answer any of my questions. Also, losing the tail stripes is super odd and I can't think of what it might mean. It's been confirmed to have meaning of some sort...
I hope I made someone out there mad by ascending on cycle 68 instead of 69.Rain World - The Root 2 electric boogalooTurtle Toad2019-12-10 | As usual you can find the mod on www.raindb.net, it was made by Willburd.
The Root has been completely redone in an extremely short amount of time but it's epic anyway! You can really see the improvements that came from a year of working on MSC. It's very different from the old root (and a bit less rotted) but a few rooms were kept pretty much the same which was nice. While the previous iteration of it was pretty wild, this one could have been just a regular vanilla region, though a little bit more dynamic than vanilla regions usually are.
I didn't intend for this to be 30 minutes, it took a bit longer to put together than I expected...
Also thumbnail pending (maybe)Rain World - The Drought (Part 3)Turtle Toad2019-11-10 | I intended to have it end here but there's still quite a bit of stuff left!
The climb up the leg was surprisingly brutal. Mostly because I didn't have a very good grip on the ability and was too stubborn to get a grub though. It was also a much quieter exploring this time.
I kind of wonder how moon's functioning with so much of her complex being so damaged, with the gravity going down and stuff. I guess there's the rest of her city-size complex that's probably fine though. It gave me quite a scare when I first arrived, I didn't think the mod would include her, uh, death, but really reconsidered it upon seeing the broken gravity and weird sparks. (Also sidenote apparently the pearl I took to her from Fractured Exterior is not supposed to be empty?)
Anyway it was pretty cool to run around in Moon's complex, see the rooms before they were destroyed and overgrown. I especially liked the funny room with the sunlight. It is often easy to forget that Moon is much, much more than just five rooms. Or was, anyway.Rain World - The Drought (Part 2)Turtle Toad2019-10-27 | I spent more than 2 hours dying in Intake System, that place is no joke.
Mostly because of jetfish not cooperating though.
But aside from that I think it is my favorite region in the mod anyway, the design is extremely creative and there were lots of surprises. The environment became as much of a hazard and enabler as the creatures did, you had to learn to adjust to it and not jump in the water when it was lowering... The new shoreline rooms were also really cool, an addition that didn't really have to be added but was anyway!
Drakes are also really scary and I am thankful I was completely blind upon first seeing them...Rain World - The Drought (Part 1)Turtle Toad2019-10-13 | The first big expansion mod to release; the Drought mod was made by: Dracentis, Riv Otter, Aurora, Ągness, DirtyDan, Alu, Topicular, and Garrakx. It can be downloaded from RainDB! (Which I recommend you do if you haven't already...)
SPOILERS BELOW
I found playing the game to be very challenging at certain parts (especially later on), which was pretty nice. The ability also takes a long time to master, I wasn't able to use it to its fullest extent until my second run, but it's super fun when you learn it.
Apparently I got very lucky with Forest Sanctuary. Most were unfortunate enough to be crowded with long dogs and killed. I'd say the long dogs are the scariest creature but there are definitely scarier things... out there.... in this mod.... That aside, they're kind of cute in a way. Surreal, cute, scary, fidgety little things. They definitely spiced up Farm Arrays a bit and made Forest Sanctuary not a place of refuge or safety.
The whole pebbles surprise thing was also cool, it's not an approach I would have expected. You get used to meeting him for the first time and then suddenly you've already talked to him, it's implied you've talked to him many times! And he's also not irritated with your existence!When a scavenger breaks into your shelterTurtle Toad2019-09-27 | They come in and have a sleepover and then steal all your stuff with no regard, it's very annoying. Probably my biggest frustration with scavengers, next to them clogging up pipes of course.
I often find myself running away from scavengers, no matter if they're friends or foes.
Here's the original clip: youtu.be/KbQDP0eYzHk And the thumbnail art was done by shigureru2 (deviantart.com/shigureru2)Rain World - Exploring the BadlandsTurtle Toad2019-08-30 | Not really sure why the mod was named the badlands, should really have been named the goodlands.
All jokes aside this mod was made by FIIIIIISH and it's very epic! I recommend playing it before watching. You can find it on RainDB.
I found this quite a bit easier than the root and I suspect it's due to enemy spawns. I do like how the spawns were pretty chill though, it really let you run around and explore. Also, those two reds being placed was a good idea. Quite a spicy addition to what would have been regular parkour rooms. This certainly isn't to say all the other rooms weren't marvelous and fun to navigate though! The detail is astounding and I wanted to put all the rooms that were visited in the video, even if it was only briefly.
There is a reason not many of these region mods get released, it's because the level editor is an eldritch creation and very few have the patience to tame it, and much less continue to work with it for so long. Props to FIIIIIISH!Rain World except everything explodesTurtle Toad2019-08-12 | Hi I'm not dead
Anyway this is my own mod! It's very challenging, because now you have to run away from literally everything. Approaching most passive creatures is usually more dangerous than actual predators. It will be released soon™ (partiality this time too!) Music: youtu.be/89C6Uh82rl8

Everything aside, I do find this a little bit funny.Rain World - Killing things as kingcat and also getting killed tooTurtle Toad2019-07-24 | This mod was made by the one who screams, it can be found on RainDB.
It is much harder to control than it looks. You often have to aim while running, and with how sensitive the aiming direction is and most often a fast moving moving target this is of course disastrous.
But I did get a few lucky shots.
When I first saw this mod the mobility aspect of it was what intrigued me most, I imagined being able to grapple using the tusks. Unfortunately whichever one is retracted first seems random, so they are not very reliable for grappling. In time spears started to become seemingly more reliable. This is not to say it wasn't fun fighting kings with their own weapons though!
This could all just be because I am new to using the mod and therefore bad at it etc but for now I feel like the main weakness is just not being able to hit targets unless they are directly above you or to the side, unless you get lucky.Rain World except slugcat is laughably slow and can only move via scooting aroundTurtle Toad2019-07-17 | This was a sort of challenge that reminded me of when I was a new player, and didn't know how to move around so I just helplessly died to things. I think this is something all of us can relate to. Playing as hunter very well e n h a n c e d the experience. I did die a few times! A very good few times!
This took approximately 7 hours to edit and I did it all in one day because I had a super busy week and couldn't play brain world for 5 days and then procrastinated on my finite free days because I didn't think it would take so long hence the 4 AM upload! Enjoy! hhhRain World - Red lizards are fair and balanced creaturesTurtle Toad2019-07-07 | Some clips of red lizard encounters, some of which date back to almost a year ago...

Also congrations guys we done it we reached 2k subs I am so proud of this community!!!!!!!!Rain World - Taking a batfly to Five PebblesTurtle Toad2019-07-03 | I believe I said after I finished the jetfish to five pebbles run that I would not be taking any more creatures to pebbles. Well, I guess I lied.
This also took much more time than it should have ): From white lizards at the wall to the squidcada not complying to just not having bats spawn at all, what I expected to be a one-shot and maybe two-shot run if I messed up ended up taking like 5 attempts and a ton of weird preparations.
The illustrations were the most fun part of this video, I might do more in the future if applicable.Rain World hunter% the hunting (23:36)Turtle Toad2019-06-26 | Basically the point of this run is to literally eat oneself to death. Since permadeath is an ending to hunter, I thought surely doing that would be easier and faster than actually doing a normal speedrun where you ascend!
...It's not really. I think if the scavengers didn't pester me so much it could have been a sub 23, there's a lot of stuff that could have been done to make this faster but I'm ok with this being a start.
Also, not quite sure what the 8 deaths was about...Rain World - Red centipede at Sky IslandsTurtle Toad2019-06-18 | So apparently you only have to kill one centiwing and get lucky for one of these to spawn.... careful who you kill!

I found the little comment in the industrial complex pearl about some community members having a hard time with doors very, very amusing.
A few of my favorite quotes:
"Five mosquitoes: you can not be disappointed. Delete all of you."
"Of course, it looks like he can force your pet to perish. It is our lawyer at all times."
"Skin disease design and planning ..."
"Do you know what your life looks like? Of course you are talking now!"
"A lot of showers might have appeared out of your bed, so a little support might be good."
"Enjoy slang button!"
"Yes, you don't get your unit unit."
"You do not need a bath, I want a bath."
"Until then, the unusual rhomboid whale fluid."
"when he was finished, he could eat any creature like food."
"FP: I accept the drunkenness."
"Uh! I do not really need contradiction!"
Also, I did not include all of the Sky Islands pearls because it was very tedious to start a new save and collect them again and again hoping to get a new dialogue (there are 2 pearls and 5 potential dialogues that can be picked from a pool, so you end up having to do several runs to get them all) so here are the ones not shown:

My main goal of this room was to make water something fun to move through and not an obstacle. In Drainage System and Shoreline water is not very fun, it's either open stretches or close, tight squeezed, near drowning experiences. I absolutely love the feeling of swimming in a place not meant to be flooded and I think that was my main inspiration.
Well, for a first level I don't think I did half bad!

I've always wanted this.Rain World - Doing an average hunter run except it starts on cycle 0Turtle Toad2019-04-22 | **NOTE: The one death seen in the statistics at the end is one given by ascending that cannot be avoided.**
Very scary run. One death could end it all and that's kind of a heavy thing to carry around. The sickness was not as much of a burden as this thought was, because I tended to rest in places where food was near and it could go away. Filtration was by far the scariest place. I don't remember how many attempts I did at this, but if I were to guess, I'd say 60-70. Most ended at farm arrays because vultures would fly away and I'd be left without spears etc, but then the other attempts where I did get far tended to end because of scavengers.
Also technically a deathless hunter run, wooRain World - Fifty PebblesTurtle Toad2019-04-17 | Disclaimer: there are not actually 50 pebbles, I don't know how many I created... Moon was actually quite a bit more entertaining in my opinion, even though pebbles was the one I originally had in mind for duplicating.

First he is harassed by jetfish who steal his drowning repellent, then a leviathan gets stuck on the other side of the tower, forcing him to swim to the surface on the other side, where two vultures ambush him as he continues to be harassed by jetfish and is quite literally drowning. Also is it just me or did the jetfish swim much slower than usual?

As the martyr you can infinitely slide and roll as long as the ability does not run out and you have flat land to go across. In vanilla there is a special slide you can do by throwing something behind you that makes you quicker. Combine these two and you get a very fast nyoom ahead.

Five Pebbles is constantly setting the palette in his room, so things that have a random color value are also constantly getting their colors changed... I made quite a few things have a random color value.just some clipsTurtle Toad2019-02-21 | It's hard to pick a favorite slugcat. Artificer's ability was really difficult to use at first but I did get used to it after about an hour. Once I did it was quite fun to use the double jump as a shortcut constantly. Had to remind myself a lot that I can't go underwater for a swim boost... Saint's overall mobility and vulnerability make them really fun to play (if you don't die lol) but the karma drop thing was kind of annoying since I have a tendency to fool around and get distracted by doing stupid risky stuff and die before I can get a karma flower, locking myself to the region. Also didn't really get to use the ability to its fullest potential since there is less time for it when you have low karma... Once the karma dropped I kind of just didn't play saint again because I didn't really want to bother with the grind to get back up. Thankfully in the next version of MSC saint will not have the losing all karma upon death thing anymore! Gourmand was somehow very entertaining despite the pretty minimal changes. The lowered chance of death by a lizard bite made me more courageous, and with a little patience the random item ability could help in a lot of situations. The exhaustion thing was not very much of a con (though I like mobility so I'd prefer it stay that way). I also liked having to actually look for food. Rivulet's added mobility did not quite match up with the short cycle times I feel, for instance their running and climbing and sliding speed was the same as a regular slugcat's, so all they had was the jump boosts to help them out a bit. Shelters were pretty much always in reach but it just kind of felt limiting to not be able to go to others. Swimming on the other hand was a complete joyride, rivulet can go just about as fast as a jetfish and it's awesome. I didn't play spearmaster ):artificer steals n stuff to become smartTurtle Toad2019-02-18 | But he is not rewarded for his actions...

Also using artificer's ability is really hard, it took like an hour to get used to/ be able to do consistently :cdont bully the tubbyTurtle Toad2019-02-14 | Be careful who you bully in middle school.
Rain World is actually middle school, that is why it's so difficult.Rain World - The saint deathlessTurtle Toad2019-02-11 | I forgot the level 10 karma ability existed until the void sea lol
Was far easier than hurricane mod, basically the only thing that made it harder than a regular survivor run was the getting instakilled by bites (which were usually easy to avoid because of the tongue being amazing). The no spears thing kept me pretty on edge because typically when I have a spear I consider myself safe, and it's impossible to have one as the saint. By the way this is still version 1.01, the updated version of the mod is still in development and it is going to be awesome.
I think the biggest thing that made saint seem difficult was the losing all karma thing...
