Occasional Hylics Facts (Pastel Blue Sky)

Inconsistently posted Hylics facts for your mouth-tasting. Run by @braxiations.bsky.social (she/her) and @s-for-sprinkles.bsky.social (he/they) Hylics and many images on this account by Mason Lindroth DM for fact ideas!

This cut event in #Hylics 2 once had a destroyed variant of the first TV that would've been swapped in place after the combat scene, as the TV was supposed to be destroyed after the fight. We've seen an earlier version of this event teased in Mason Lindroth's Tumblr back in September 2017. -💀
Occasional Hylics Facts (Pastel Blue Sky)@hylicsfacts.bsky.social · 3mo agoThe second phone call contains a cut interaction between Wayne, Somsnosa, Dedusmuln, and Fuller. This cut event includes a unique unused sprite of the crew on the couch and custom battle scenario. -💀
Leftover in #Hylics 2's beta is an early version of the player character with quite a few differences from the final release player character. Most notably this version of the player having the ability to shoot projectiles in place of the glove slap mechanic the final version has. -💀
Found leftover in the #Hylics 2 beta are two cut character interactions via phone calls. This first one contains one of the only remnants of Instar left in this version of the game (previously called "Fimbria") -💀

The first trailer for #hylics 2 shows Decres dancing with Old Wayne in what seems to be the Afterlife. This terrain was identified by @s-for-sprinkles.bsky.social as being here in the final game's Afterlife.
Fun fact, in #Hylics 2 there's an unused 3D scanned model of the clay meat computer which is only ever seen in sprite form in the final release. The model can be found leftover in the scene for Disthlarn Moon on a desk in place of where the Sage TV is found. -💀

Unused in the final game, but in a partly-used spritesheet is this particular doodad. It has a WEIRD prevalence throughout Hylics and Mason Lindroth's early art. -🌸
Occasional Hylics Facts (Pastel Blue Sky)@hylicsfacts.bsky.social · 4mo agoHylics is known for having weird, non-descript, blobby objects throughout its world. This is also a trait in other Mason Lindroth games. Well, they have a name! "Doodads"! By name, they're in the city, the unused cave area, Gibby's tower and Hylics 2's shops -🌸

Still can't believe how well that stream went. Just wanted yall to know that just about all of this was modded by @braxiations.bsky.social on and off for roughly 2 years, with there being some additional help from RamenTribe when it came to reimplementing the cut 3D dungeon plugin into Hylics!
A test map, titled "Afterlife," is unused in #Hylics Interestingly, it showcases the beginnings of a system where, rather than just depositing meat to raise flesh, one could deposit meat to raise flesh, will, OR mightiness. The Fleshstache on the right gives player 10 meat when interacted with. -🌸
Working on the script for a video I've been wanting to make for a LONG time on a really interesting and obscure piece of #Hylics 1's development. So enjoy this with 0 context. -🌸
Early in #Hylics 2's development, Mason Lindroth had began prototyping the look for the opening title sequence of the game. It initially began with the camera panning to the right, revealing the same hand graphics for each letter rising up before revealing the roman numeral "II" at the end. -💀
During #Hylics 2's beta there had been many balance changes made to most of the Garbs and Gestures. Some of these changes were minor, while others were quite large. This also included some item descriptions being removed during the beta. Examples below. (ALT Text has additional info) -💀

Have you ever wondered what the drill in the Drill Castle from #Hylics 2 actually looked like? Well wonder no more! This is leftover in the Drill Castle and would've been visible after the drill was deactivated via story events in Hylics 2. It's not known why this visual was removed though. -💀
During #Hylics 2's story, the crew has to find a way to disable the shield protecting Foglast from outsiders. It isn't directly explained how the shield worm is able to power this shield from across the world. But, there's a small visual in the overworld actually showing how the energy travels. -💀

In older revisions of the #Hylics 2 story, Somsnosa originally still had her old house. Through the revisions it was changed to where she ended up moving to a Juice Ranch, remnants of her old house are still leftover in the beta to some capacity as seen below. -💀

#Hylics 2's beta has a few maps left unused in its files, one of which goes by the name "Cliff House." This maps purpose was likely to test out the style for Hylics in a 3D setting. Because of that, this is probably one of the earliest maps made for the game. -💀
#Hylics 1 had a scrapped party member! An old gif from Mason's Tumblr features the "boxhead" NPC as part of the party. There's also an unused overworld sprite for them, a trait only shared by party members. Boxhead was replaced by Somsnosa around September of 2014. -🌸
Hi everyone! I'm happy (ha) to announce that @s-for-sprinkles.bsky.social will be joining me, Braxi, as a mod for this account! He'll likely be a lot more active than I Look forward to new posts regarding H2 beta content! Posts from Happy will end in -💀 Posts from Braxi will end in -🌸
