Submachine 10: the Exit

[Sublevel 114]

^I think that is some of what Mateusz meant to address in Submachine: the Engine.

Wow, already another sub planned?

Engine, Farm, Loop v 2.0
XD

[- ak -]

Only Sub_Engine and Sub_Universe.

Those might be the last Submachine adventures to be explored. I can't imagine Mateusz continuing to do Submachine now that a lot of background have been revealed and mysteries being resolved. There might be no more avenues left to address.

dear Paste God, if you think more than half of mysteries and questions are solved, then can you write full story about Submachine for me and other lost people? XD

srsl, Submachine... no, wait. WORLD that contains Submachine is still mysterious place where each third question is unanswered.

yeah, if anyone can do that, it is ak

but seriously, I think we got most of the story covered by Sub10. For example, we know now who Mur and Liz are (partially), and where they are, we can guess what was the entire Player journey (including why the Player entered the Submachine, and how he got from Sub1 to Sub2), and a lot of details about the Submachine and its origin.

Ok, I counted them real quick, I got 86 questions answered. I think that's close to what I got last time. Hope it helps. I'll edit with the numbers.

I wanted to make counter-commentaries to half of questions, but...
I think I should help to make our big list of unanswered questions instead.

why the Player entered the Submachine

He was recruited by Murtaugh, didn't he?

and how he got from Sub1 to Sub2

Karma portal?

I was referring rather to the usher note that we found in the metal section before we get to the lighthouse portal. He/she was recruited by Mur, but that is later in Sub4. It's possible that the usher is Mur himself, I hadn't thought of that.

and how he got from Sub1 to Sub2

Karma portal?

Yep, through the fake ending painting.

but still, why he talked about dream and game?
And computer screen at the end? We didn't see any computer screen after Lighthouse's lamp.

and how he ended in Submachine 1?

but still, why he talked about dream and game?

Because he remembered being in the Basement, and confused it with a dream when he saw the arcade machine before falling unconscious. I think there's not any mystery here. Mateusz has stated many times that Sub1 wasn't a dream, so that's the only option left

And computer screen at the end? We didn't see any computer screen after Lighthouse's lamp.

I believe it was the screen from location 580 being "broadcasted" to us, like an interference, while we were travelling through the portal to the loop. Now we didn't see any video in a screen because it's inactive at that time, like the sub-bots.

and how he ended in Submachine 1?

I'm not sure about that part. I think we simply started to watch the Player's journey in that game. There are many ways to enter it, many sections of the Basement. We could ask Mateusz to be sure of this.
