OMORI : C2

WHITE SPACE C2

The game opens with a short clip of BASIL comforting a crying SUNNY, asking him to promise that they'll always be there for each other.

OMORI is welcomed to WHITE SPACE, where he has been living "for as long as [he] can remember." He checks his laptop, sketchbook, tissues, and black lightbulb and talks to MEWO before he hears something falling nearby. He searches until he finds a SHINY KNIFE. Going beyond the borders results in the room looping around, or the RED HANDS taking OMORI back to the center of the room. OMORI exits through the door into the NEIGHBOR'S ROOM where he meets with his friends AUBREY, KEL, and HERO playing cards.

Looking back in the keyhole of his door, SOMETHING appears in the room. The door is suddenly locked. OMORI helps AUBREY find her STUFFED TOY that KEL hid away when they got into another fight. Once that's done, HERO offers to take them to a picnic with MARI and BASIL, and everybody joins the party. The party leaves the NEIGHBOR'S ROOM out to the stump, which takes them to HEADSPACE, a large, vibrant world.

The party heads south to the FOREST PLAYGROUND where there are many colorful characters and friends, including OMORI's older sister, MARI and the group's good friend, BASIL, having a picnic. The player can see from subsequent dialogue and BASIL's PHOTO ALBUM that MARI cares a lot about OMORI, that KEL and AUBREY frequently get into petty fights, MARI and HERO flirt with each other, HERO is KEL's older brother, and that BASIL takes photos to put into his PHOTO ALBUM. The group is then forced to play hide and seek with the other kids by BERLY. When BOSS, a character banned by BERLY from the playground, takes BASIL hostage, the group fights him, learning basic battle mechanics, as well as OMORI'S ability to "not succumb" the first time he is reduced to 1 health. The group heads south of town to BASIL'S HOUSE to see his plants, where each character's basic personality traits are described. BASIL wants to be optimistic, MARI is positive, HERO is versatile and easily liked, AUBREY is true to herself, KEL is resilient, and OMORI is plain. Additionally, the player learns more battle mechanics along the way by fighting sprout moles. In front of his house, BASIL takes a blurry photo of his friends. AUBREY and KEL begin arguing and shoving to see the photo, accidently pushing BASIL's photo album and his photos onto the ground. They enter the house to organize the photos back in the album, but afterwards an extra photo of MARI falls out, horrifying BASIL. BASIL, panicked, believes the photo is familiar though he doesn't remember it. A shadow builds around BASIL, and as BASIL is about to express what is happening to MARI in the photo, the photo flashes on the screen briefly, and causes OMORI to reappear in WHITE SPACE. This time, however, the door to NEIGHBOR'S ROOM is missing. He stabs himself to return to the real world.

"LOOK AT ALL OF US... THESE ARE ALL OF OUR MEMORIES TOGETHER... THEY'RE A LITTLE SAD NOW... BUT WE SHOULD BE HAPPY THAT THEY HAPPENED AT ALL... LET'S MAKE SOME NEW MEMORIES TOGETHER, OKAY?"

OMORI

 WHITE SPACE

"Welcome to WHITE SPACE. Your name is OMORI and you've been living here for as long as you can remember. Everything is bright white; there aren't any walls. A black lightbulb hangs from the ceiling… wherever it is. There's a floor but it's always cold. The warmest thing here is probably your laptop. You don't mind though. You have a blanket, a laptop, a cat, a sketchbook, and a tissue box. You have everything you need.

You are usually upset. Everyone annoys you, you think you are ugly, you don't know where you came from, you don't know where you are going, and you're too tired to care.

On good days, your neighbors invite you over for a visit. "How can they have fun with someone as horrible as me?" You miss them now. When will they come again? Maybe today will be a good day!

Or maybe today is a day for sleeping.

But...Sometimes you're reminded you used to have another friend-- someone really important.

Somewhere in the back of your head, you have a feeling that you weren't always like this. You weren't always living in WHITE SPACE.

The truth is...

Your story is already over. You just have to remember it."

"Omori fully consumes Sunny's mind and body."

"Omori, accepting defeat, fades away."

Lo-Fi

Lo-Fi, Musik yang Cocok Buat Bantu Kamu Konsentrasi

Lo-Fi adalah kependekan dari Low Fidelity, sekaligus kebalikan dari High Fidelity atau Hi-Fi.

Dikutip dari Hot Vox, musik ini muncul pada 1950-an. Lo-Fi sering disebut “DIY Music” karena tempat rekamannya yang dianggap gak ideal, jadi sering menimbulkan distorsi suara pada rekaman yang dihasilkan. 

Pada era 1980-an dan 1990-an, Lo-Fi diakui sebagai aliran musik sendiri berkat ketenarannya. Gaya musik ini dipopulerkan secara besar besaran oleh beberapa musisi dari berbagai negara, di antaranya American Garage, British Punk, Norwegian Black Metal, dan grup asal New Zealand, the Chills and the Clean. Mereka memberikan sentuhan gaya dan melodi yang unik, jadi bikin musik ini berbeda dari yang lainnya.

Lo-Fi benar-benar menarik perhatian masyarakat pada 2010 berkat tulisan yang dimuat dalam Wall Street Journal dan New York Times.

Dikutip dari Medium, kini perkembangan musik semakin modern. Banyak musisi yang semakin kreatif untuk menambahkan variasi pada musik Lo-Fi seperti hip-hop atau jazz. Kemudahan untuk menemukan musik sejenis chillhop/chillwave/chillout di platform streaming saat ini, menunjukan bahwa musik yang dulunya dipandang sebelah mata itu sekarang balik lagi jadi tren.

 Gak cuma musik klasik yang bisa membantu untuk berkonsentrasi, Lo-Fi juga bisa dipake buat mendengarkan saat belajar, bekerja, bahkan pas kamu lagi istirahat. melodinya bikin hati tenang, ditambah suara-suara unik yang pastinya gak kita temukan dalam genre musik lain.
